Manchester United have appointed Erik ten Hag as their new manager to join the club this summer, and there is already mounting speculation about players who may join him to be part of the new era at Old Trafford.

What’s the latest?

The Athletic has reported that Man United have begun “exploring” the idea of bringing Kalvin Phillips to the club this summer.

The sports publication tweeted: “MUFC have begun exploring the prospect of £50m move for Kalvin Phillips.”

Ten Hag masterclass

If the Red Devils were able to convince Phillips to leave his beloved boyhood club at Leeds United to join Ten Hag this summer in Manchester, it would be an incredible coup for the club and would be the first masterclass in the new manager’s revolution.

The £38k-per-week ace who was hailed “outstanding” by Martin Keown and a “destroyer” by Steve McLaren, has been a force for the Yorkshire club in their push for promotion to the Premier League and last season when they finished 9th in their first season in the top-flight, as well as being a standout performer for England in the Euros last summer.

In midfield for Manchester United, Phillips is the exact profile of player that the team needs to integrate to improve the possession of the ball and control games better in the centre of the pitch, which has been a huge problem for the current team who, for example, lost the ball 167 times against Newcastle United earlier this season.

The 26-year-old Leeds midfielder this season had lost the ball on average just 11.8 times per game, compared to Bruno Fernandes who loses the ball 18.3 times, and Paul Pogba has lost the ball every 12.1 touches, so adding a player like Phillips could boost the ball retention in the team.

With that being said, there is a huge rivalry between Leeds and Manchester United that has existed for decades and with Phillips being a complete product of Leeds United, the golden boy at the club and in the city it would be surprising if he does make the move to Old Trafford, but from a quality perspective, he is exactly what the team needs.

Presidente do Corinthians, Andrés Sanchez culpou os empresários de Zeca pelo fracasso nas negociações para contratar o lateral. Na última quarta-feira, o Timão chegou a preparar o anúncio do reforço, brincou nas redes sociais, mas recuou alegando que os agentes não cumpriram o acordo de assumir todos os riscos da negociação.

-Desde o início combinamos que eles (empresários) precisariam dar garantias na pessoa física e jurídica ou não aceitaríamos. Eles não fizeram isso… Caímos fora.Os caras não assumiram. Nós negociamos com o Santos até o limite, os caras não assinaram dando as garantias. A gente só faria se eles assumissem o risco 100% deles ou não faríamos. Mas, como vazou antes, deu esse tumulto todo aí – disse Andrés, em entrevista ao site Meu Timão, ao falar pela primeira vez sobre o assunto.

O fracasso na negociação com Zeca gerou críticas internas no Corinthians, principalmente pelo fato de o clube ter brincado com o assunto antes de ter sacramentado a contratação.

Zeca se desligou do Santos no fim do ano passado com um habeas corpus alegando atraso de pagamento de fundo de garantia. Desde então, já negociou com Flamengo e Girona (ESP), mas ambos deram para trás com medo da questão judicial. Agora, o Corinthians disse que os empresários do jogador iriam assumir os riscos e se comprometeriam a ressarcir o Santos em caso de derrota na Justiça no futuro. A reportagem tentou contato com Bruno Paiva, empresário representante de Zeca, mas não obteve sucesso.

تجاهل لاعب خط وسط الأرجنتين بابو جوميز مخاوف من الإصابة قبل ربع نهائي كأس العالم يوم الجمعة ضد هولندا.

اعترف نجم إشبيلية بأنه تعرض لإصابة في الكاحل خلال مباراة الأمس ضد أستراليا، في دور الـ16 من كأس العالم.

لكن اللاعب البالغ من العمر 34 عامًا يصر على أنه سيكون “بخير” قبل صدام يوم الجمعة ضد الطواحين.

وقال بابو جوميز في تصريحات نشرتها صحيفة “ذا صن” الإنجليزية: “لقد قمت بلف كاحلي ولم أستطع الاستمرار لفترة أطول، فضلت أن يأتي شخص آخر أفضل مني”.

وأضاف: “إنها حالة التواء، هناك عدة أيام متبقية للتعافي وسيكون كل شيء على ما يرام”.

وواصل: “كان بإمكاننا تسجيل عدة أهداف بعد أن تقدمنا في النتيجة، لقد انتهى بنا الأمر إلى المعاناة لكننا الأرجنتين، عليك دائمًا أن تعاني”.

وأردف: “نحن نلاحق الأهداف التي حددناها لأنفسنا”، حتى أنه يعتقد أن بداية البطولة مع الخسارة 2-1 أمام السعودية من الممكن أن تساعد الأرجنتين.

وأوضح: “ربما كانت المباراة الأولى جيدة بالنسبة لنا لأنها كانت علامة تحذير، لقد أيقظتنا وقمنا بتحسين الأشياء التي كنا نمارسها بشكل خاطئ”.

Round-up of the first day of the seventh round of Division Two of the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy

ESPNcricinfo staff04-Dec-2010Khan Research Laboratories surprised table-toppers State Bank of Pakistan, bowling them out for 148 at the Khan Research Laboratory Ground in Rawalpindi. KRL seamer Yasir Arafat, who has played three Tests for Pakistan, took 5 for 53 – his 40th five-wicket haul in first-class cricket. Only five of SBP’s batsmen got to double figures. KRL, who are sixth in the table, 18 points behind SBP, finished the day at 78 for 2.Thirty points separate Abbottabad and Quetta in the table, and the gulf in class showed at the Abbottabad Cricket Stadium where the visitors were all out for 215 on the first day. Abbottabad’s bowlers shared the wickets with left-arm seamer Armaghan Elahi taking three, and seamer Nabeeullah and left-arm spinner Khalid Usman taking two each. Quetta had lost both their openers with the score still on four. Captain Arun Lal’s 52 and Mohammad Aslam’s 49 offered some resistance, but the last four wickets fell for 12 to give Abbottabad a clear advantage.Karachi Whites hold the advantage in their match against Lahore Ravi after bowling them out for 206 on the first day at the Gaddafi Stadium. Karachi seamer Sohail Khan took his second consecutive six-wicket haul to break the spine of Lahore Ravi’s middle-order. Only four Lahore Ravi players reached double figures, with wicketkeeper Zeeshan Ali the only half centurion.Three wickets late in the day got Lahore Shalimar back into their match against Pakistan Television after a 112-run stand between Ammar Mahmood and Awais Zia had threatened to take the game away from them. After electing to bat at the Lahore City Cricket Association Ground, Pakistan Television captain Raheel Majeed, who is the leading run-getter in Division Two this season, got them off to a solid start with his 30. Mahmood and Zia then piled on the runs with Zia reaching 75. But Lahore Shalimar seamer Aamer Hayat , who is third in the wicket-taker’s charts this season, helped his team restore some parity with three late strikes.An unbeaten century by Aqeel Anjum took Hyderabad to 310 for 7 on the first day against Peshawar at the Arbab Niaz Stadium. The two sides are stuck at second-last and third-last in the table and it was Hyderabad who took the honours on the first day. Opener Sharjeel Khan gave them a solid start with his 61. Anjum then struggled to find a partner willing to stay with him before left-arm spinner Kashif Bhatti stuck with him through a 92-run eighth-wicket stand. Offspinner Sajjad Ahmed took four wickets, but gave away 109 runs in his 28 overs.

Rangers could bank £3.9m if they overturn their 1-0 semi-final first leg deficit to reach the Europa League final, according to The Rangers Review.

The lowdown

The Glasgow giants shipped a narrow defeat in the first leg last week after Angelino’s 85th-minute winner for their German hosts.

Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side are very much the underdogs in the tie, ranking a full 19 places below opponents RB Leipzig in the UEFA club coefficient ranking, although their hopes of making it to the Seville showpiece are far from dead.

On Thursday, they will welcome Leipzig to Ibrox, where they boast a strong record. The Gers have only lost five of their last 33 European matches on home soil.

The two teams are battling to face either West Ham United or Eintracht Frankfurt (who lead 2-1 heading back to Germany) in the final.

The latest

In addition to the near-£4m incentive for beating Leipzig, Jonny McFarlane outlined for The Rangers Review (and on Twitter) how winning the tournament would also be quite lucrative.

Whichever club prevails in Seville on 18 May will receive €8.6m (£7.2m) in prize money. They would also set up a meeting with the winners of the Champions League in the UEFA Super Cup, a fixture projected to earn them €3.5m (£2.9m).

Perhaps the biggest reward, though, is Champions League group stage qualification for 2022/23, which is said to be worth a whopping €15.6m (£13.1m).

The verdict

This would be huge for Rangers. For instance, it can help them finance incoming transfers in the summer and also enable the club to present more lucrative contract offers to current players who might be considering a departure from Ibrox.

Perhaps above all else, it would help them to overcome the considerable losses they have incurred in recent times.

In the first six years under the current regime, the club has lost a cumulative £73.5m. In the most recent accounts, Rangers were £23.5m in the red, feeling the effects of the pandemic.

The benefits of this deep European run should not be underestimated, and there could be some huge windfalls to come their way if Van Bronckhorst and co can overturn the 1-0 deficit against Leipzig on Thursday night.

The contest between the two top teams in the world is heating up, and some of it is boiling over, with Paul Harris alleging that Sreesanth must have said something personal for Graeme Smith to react the way he did

Sidharth Monga at Kingsmead28-Dec-2010

The contest between the two top teams in the world is heating up, and some of it is boiling over, with Paul Harris alleging that “it must have been something personal [said by Sreesanth] for Graeme Smith to react the way he did”. The incident Harris talked about was when Smith was seen pointing his bat at Sreesanth, and sharing stern words. It came three balls after Sreesanth had hit Smith on the finger with a sharp delivery, and there seemed to have been words exchanged then. Harris, however, made the allegation in the good faith that Smith doesn’t react on the field unless a personal comment is made to him.”For Grame to act the way he did – we all know Graeme really well – he doesn’t react to situations like that,” Harris said. “If it was personal – and I have heard it was – I think we should cut that out of the game.”I know Sreesanth has said a few personal things on the field, which is not great and we don’t condone that. If he wants to do that, he can do that. It must have been something personal for Graeme to react the way he did.”This was not the first time that words had been exchanged in this series. It was not even the first time on this particular day, for that matter. When Zaheer Khan came out to bat and swung and missed twice, Lonwabo Tsotsobe and Smith were in his ear. When Ishant Sharma got out, the umpires were not sure he had done so to a legitimate delivery, and Ishant waited next to the South African huddle for the third umpire to relay his verdict. There were words spoken then too, and Ishant was seen turning back and responding to what looked like a verbal send-off.VVS Laxman was quick to mention the earlier incidents when the Smith-Sreesanth run-in was brought up, but also sought to play things down. “I am not sure what happened but saying that, it’s a series between two top teams,” he said. “In a keen tussle like that, it is bound to happen. It’s not only when Sreesanth said something to Smith, but even their bowlers came at us hard. It’s bound to happen because both the teams want to win this game badly. [These things happen] when the intensity at which the game is played is high.”Harris seemed to be in agreement with the intensity, but repeated the bit about getting personal. “The game has been played in very good spirit,” he said. “It’s No. 1 v No. 2. Every now and then it will boil over, it’s Test cricket. That’s what people want to see. Even we want to see it played hard on the field, but not getting personal. That’s where we draw the line, it’s a fine line.”

تغنى بيباين لايندرز، مساعد مدرب ليفربول، يورجن كلوب، بالنجم المصري محمد صلاح، خلال معسكر الفريق في دبي، استعدادًا لاستكمال الموسم بعد نهاية كأس العالم قطر 2022.

وقال ليندرز في تصريحات إلى “ذا ناشينوال”: “محمد صلاح هو الرجل الذي يخرج من منطقة راحته دائمًا، لا شيء جيد يحدث في منطقة الراحة، رحل عن مصر، لم يكن الأمر سهلاً، الكثير من الانتكاسات، ومع الوقت وبشخصيته، أصبح قائدًا في رأيي، ليس مجرد قائد على أرض الملعب ولكن أيضًا في غرفة الملابس”.

وأضاف: “إنه مثال للعالم كيف يجب أن يكون القائد، كيف يتعامل مع المواقف، نحن فخورون حقًا بأنه مدد تعاقده، وأنه معنا، وأنه أحد قادتنا، أنا أنظر إليه دائمًا، فأنا دائمًا ما أراه يتدرب جيدًا”.

وتابع: “إذا رأيت محمد صلاح فهو يركز من الدقيقة الأولى من التدريب حتى اللحظة الأخيرة، ويظهر مهاراته في المراوغة، لا يمكنك التنبؤ بما يمكنه القيام به، هو قائد، ويتحدث مع الأطفال الصغار، لا يمكنني إلا أن أقول ذلك حتى الآن، جيد جدًا”.

ويستعد ليفربول لخوض مباراتين وديتين أمام ليون الفرنسي وميلان الإيطالي، قبل العودة إلى المنافسات المحلية ومواجهة مانشستر سيتي في كأس الرابطة.

تحدث هوجو لوريس، قائد وحارس منتخب فرنسا، بعد تأهل منتخب بلاده إلى نهائي كأس العالم 2022، بعد الفوز على المغرب 2-0.

وحقق لوريس رقمًا تاريخيًا خلال مباراة الديوك وأسود الأطلس، حيث عادل رقم مانويل نوير كأكثر الحراس مشاركة في تاريخ كأس العالم.

وقال لوريس في تصريحات بعد المباراة: “الأرجنتين منتخب عظيم، ولديها لاعب رسم تاريخ هذه الرياضة وهو ليونيل ميسي، ستكون مباراة صعبة ورائعة”.

وأضاف: “لدينا الآن فرصة ذهبية مع المنتخب لكتابة تاريخ كرة القدم، والفوز بالبطولة مرتين على التوالي”.

وتابع: “بدأنا المباراة بشكل ممتاز، وبعد ذلك لم نتمكن من التسجيل حتى الشوط الثاني، شعرنا بأننا نواجه منتخب يلعب بدون أي شيء ليخسره، منتخب يعرف كيف يهاجم وكيف يدافع، لكننا انتصرنا في النهاية واستحقينا التأهل”.

واختتم: “المغرب أظهر للجميع أنه ليس منتخبًا دفاعيًا، وأظهروا جودتهم في كل الخطوط، الآن علينا الاستعداد للنهائي”.

Shaun Tait believes Australia’s World Cup pace attack is the best in the world as they aim for a fourth title in a row

Andrew McGlashan in Hobart19-Jan-2011

Shaun Tait believes Australia’s World Cup pace attack is the best in the world as they aim for a fourth title in a row. There is no lack of speed in the 15-man squad with Tait joined by Brett Lee, Mitchell Johnson and Doug Bollinger as the selectors take an aggressive route to the subcontinent.It is a major gamble because Tait, Lee and Johnson can all prove expensive but they also have the ability to make significant inroads. In the 2007 tournament, Tait was a success as a shock bowler with 23 wickets, but was able to feed off the pressure built up by Glenn McGrath and Nathan Bracken. “We’ve all had a fair bit of experience and if you put that pace attack up against any in the world and I think it comes out No. 1,” Tait said. “The selectors should be pretty happy with what they have.”Out of the four fast bowlers Tait will be used in the shortest, sharpest, spells mainly because his of his fragile body. He missed the first one-day international against England due to a back strain but he is unconcerned and is ready to take his place at Hobart on Friday in the best shape of his life.”I’m at full fitness apart from the back complaint a few days ago,” he said. “Obviously they will manage the fast bowlers through the rest of the series and probably the World Cup as well which is the done thing these days. It’s probably the fittest I’ve been. I worked hard during the three months I was injured. At the end of the day you can be as fit as you like, but it is performances out on the field that count.”Despite the strain on his body when bowling in excess of 150kph, Tait won’t be holding back against England or during the World Cup. “The reason I get selected is because of my pace and there’s no substitute for me. I’m not going to hold back and try and put the ball in the right areas,” he said. “I’m there to bowl fast and take wickets which is what I’ll try to do.”The subcontinent used to be a graveyard for fast bowlers but that has changed in recent years, especially in India, with some lively wickets being produced. Finding swing with the old ball will be a key weapon during the tournament and Tait is looking forward to the challenge.”In those conditions reverse swing will be a factor and all four of us can bowl that,” Tait said. “You never know, though, in India because some of the wickets they produce can go through pretty quickly. Fast bowling isn’t that bad over there, that’s for sure.”Australia remain the No. 1 one-day team in the world but are not favourites for this year’s tournament after a difficult year which has seen them lose to England, India and Sri Lanka in 50-over cricket. However, this current group of players are taking it as a major motivation to continue Australia’s World Cup domination without some of the great names of the past.”We had a team full of legends to be fair and it’s a little different this time,” Tait said. “When you lose so many great players over a couple of years it’s a big hole to fill. Australian cricket is slowly trying to do that, but there’s still plenty of experience there.”Form suggests that Australia will struggle to make it four in a row, but the squad they have selected means they aren’t going to let their title go quietly.
