Liverpool: Fans rage as James Pearce delivers transfer blow surrounding potential Thiago move

Jurgen Klopp has stated it’s likely that Liverpool won’t be bringing in many new signings this summer due to financial difficulty.

According to James Pearce, the German has said a lavish spending spree in the upcoming transfer window is ‘just not possible’. The Premier League champions have been linked to plenty of high profile names, but no talks have come to fruition. One particularly of note is Timo Werner, who looked set to join the Merseyside outfit prior to his move to Chelsea.

Fans have taken to Twitter to air their frustrations over this recent update, as many aren’t happy with their current situation. One supporter has slammed the news for being ’embarrassing’, as they clearly feel a title-winning club should have the funds to recruit this summer.

Another fan has assumed it means ‘so no Thiago’, after Liverpool have been heavily linked to signing the Bayern Munich midfielder (according to Sport, via Metro).

Leeds can sign their own Raheem Sterling in Eberechi Eze

According to recent reports, Leeds are interested in signing QPR starlet Eberechi Eze this summer.

What’s the word?

Eze has been in superb form for the Championship side this season, racking up 14 goals and eight assists in the league. That has prompted speculation he could be heading for the exit door, with reports now suggesting Leeds are keen on having him lead their Premier League return next season.

The Sun have claimed Marcelo Bielsa has identified the 22-year-old as someone who can bring a creative spark to Elland Road, and that the Whites are ready to outbid the likes of Tottenham and West Ham in the race to sign him.

Is it Haaland Snr or David Hopkins? Your Leeds knowledge will be put to the test with this quiz…



World Class score: 95% | Expert score: 80% | Veteran score: 65% | Intermediate score: 45% | Amateur score: 30% | Try Again: 5%

In fact, it’s further suggested that Leeds actually informed QPR of their intentions of placing a bid for the England youth international back in January if they achieved promotion this season.

Sterling 2.0

It’s fair to say that Eze has earned a lot of plaudits in his short career as a first-team football for QPR.

Mark Warburton hailed him as a “tremendous talent” who has “no limits” in just how far he can go, whilst the Hoops’ former assistant manager Mark Bircham said: “He goes past players easier than Raheem Sterling did. Sterling would beat players with pace or do a trick or a chop – it’s all dynamic movements, but Ebere Eze just glides past players.”

With Sterling also having come through the QPR academy, that may be a simple comparison to make. But if you dig beneath that, you can see just how comparable the two are.

As per Whoscored, he has averaged a stunning three dribbles per game in the Championship, whilst also attempting 2.2 shots per match too. And with his tally of 14 goals this season, he clearly has the goal-scoring knack that Sterling has developed, with the latter netting 19 in the Premier League for Manchester City.

Speaking about his dribbling ability, Danny Higginbotham remarked: “You would not want him one on one. He has that knack of gliding past players with ease. He has so many assists because he attracts so much attention which creates space for his teammates.”

If Leeds manage to sign him this summer, then they could very well have their own Sterling in their hands.

Palmeiras se apega à marca na arena para não 'anular' vantagem da ida

MatériaMais Notícias

O gol marcado por Zé Roberto no Maracanã encheu o Palmeiras de confiança para a segunda semifinal da Copa do Brasil. Afinal, depois da derrota por 2 a 1 na última semana, o Verdão chegará na decisão do torneio com um “simples” 1 a 0 amanhã, no Allianz Parque. A marca, porém, é mais complicada do que parece.

Dos últimos 23 jogos realizados pelo time (22 deles sem Gabriel), o time não foi vazado apenas uma vez, no triunfo por 2 a 0 sobre o Figueirense, na arena. Em todos os outros, a defesa alviverde levou, pelo menos, um gol. Nesta série, o Alviverde não venceu nenhum jogo por 1 a 0, e só cinco dos resultados obtidos garantiriam a vaga no tempo normal (leia mais ao lado).

Embora os jogadores admitam que o Palmeiras não vive o seu melhor momento, os problemas defensivos não estão sendo o principal tema de conversa no vestiário da Academia de Futebol. De acordo com Lucas, este é o momento de equilíbrio emocional e pensamento positivo para garantir a classificação para a decisão do torneio.

– Não queríamos tomar tantos gols, mas é um jogo decisivo, e vamos nos impor o máximo possível. Tomando gol ou não, o que mais queremos é a vaga. Não vamos nos preocupar com essas situações. Vamos preocupar mais em passar de fase – avisou o lateral-direito.

Ao menos, os números no Allianz são favoráveis: dos 33 jogos no estádio, o time não foi vazado em 13 deles. É hora de o time retomar o equilíbrio do início do ano para não “anular” a vantagem da ida.

OS ÚLTIMOS PLACARES

Dariam a vaga: As vitórias sobre o Vasco (4 a 1), Fla (4 a 2), Figueirense (2 a 0), Fluminense (4 a 1) e Avaí (3 a 1) foram por resultados que classificariam o time nesta quarta-feira.

Pênaltis: O time nos últimos dois meses teve só um triunfo por 2 a 1, sobre o Cruzeiro, em casa, pela Copa do Brasil. O placar levaria o jogo para as penalidades.

Eliminado: Além das derrotas, o Verdão teve quatro vitórias por 3 a 2 que eliminariam o time por conta dos gols fora de casa.

وتولى ألفريد شرودر قيادة برشلونة في الفوز الذي حققه البلوجرانا على ليفانتي، لعدم وجود رونالد كومان الموقوف بعد مباراة قادش الماضية.

وقال شرودر في المؤتمر الصحفي عقب المباراة: “نحن سعداء بهذا الفوز، وأعتقد أن الجميع سعيد الآن بمستوى الفريق ضد ليفانتي، لقد قدمنا مباراة رائعة، عودة فاتي مع دعم الجماهير، والمستوى الذي قدمه الفريق، يجعلنا جميعًا سعداء”.

وعن عودة فاتي، قال شرودر: “فاتي لاعب رائع للغاية، سجل هدفًا من خارج المنطقة دون الحصول على فرصة محققة، لذلك هو لاعب كبير، وهذه الخطوة هي الأولى من أجل عودته لمستواه بنسبة 100%، لكن الأهم أن نكون صبورين”.

وأكمل: “إصابة فاتي كانت طويلة للغاية، غاب لمدة عام، الآن هو متاح، نحن بحاجة لجودته، افتقدناها كثيرًا منذ الموسم الماضي”.

وشدد: “نحن نتسلح هذا الموسم بالجماهير، لقد كنا نفتقدهم كثيرًا الموسم الماضي، تفاعلهم مع دخول فاتي اليوم والأهازيج طوال المباراة فرحًا بالفوز أمرًا كنا نفتقده، والآن نحتاجه في جميع المباريات من أجل تحقيق الفوز”.

وعدد مزايا هذا الفوز: “لقد فزنا وكذلك استعدنا أنسو فاتي وتألق جافي ونيكو ومن قبل يوسف ديمير، وتجانس لاعبو الوسط مع بعضهم البعض، واستعدنا طاقتنا من جديد، أنا سعيد للغاية بهذا الفوز وما حصلنا عليه اليوم”.

واستشهد: “رونالد كومان قال لكم قبل أن يبدأ الموسم إنه إذا كانت قائمتنا كاملة بدون إصابات، سنقدم أفضل أداء ونحقق نتائج رائعة، وهذا ما حدث اليوم، وسنتحسن بشكل أكبر مع عودة باقي المصابين، لدينا أجويرو وديمبلي، وكذلك سيرجي روبيرتو أصيب اليوم وكذلك بيدري وألبا”.

واختتم: “الآن علينا أن نركز على مباراة بنفيكا، ستكون مواجهة صعبة، وسنسعى للفوز بعد الهزيمة خلال المباراة الأولى”.

Catra aprova festa de jogadores do Fla e se queixa de chatice do futebol atual: 'O bagulho era mais maneiro'

MatériaMais Notícias

“Sabe aqueles dias que tu acorda de ressaca?” Provavelmente você leu esta primeira frase e já veio uma música à cabeça. Pois é, ela pertence ao Rei do Funk Carioca, popularmente conhecido como Mr. Catra. Torcedor do Flamengo e aniversariante do dia, o funkeiro confirmou ser o ex-dono da casa em Vargem Grande, na qual cinco jogadores do Rubro-Negro (Pará, Everton, Alan Patrick, Paulinho e Marcelo Cirino) se envolveram em uma festa regada a bebidas e mulheres. “O bagulho foi sério”. Tão sério, que os atletas chegaram a ser afastados pela diretoria do clube da Gávea. Apesar do quinteto já ter sido “perdoado”, ele não concordou muito com isso…

RelacionadasFlamengoQuinteto do Flamengo é ‘perdoado’, e volta a treinar com o grupoFlamengo04/11/2015

– Eu não puniria, ligado? eu trocaria uma ideia com os moleques. O Flamengo tem que amparar os caras. Aquilo não pode ser um exército – opinou.

Ok, o LANCE! sabe que Catra não é nenhum especialista em futebol, nem faz parte de nenhuma diretoria. Mas se tem uma coisa que ele entende é… festa.
A tal comemoração teve a total aprovação do rubro-negro, hoje com 47 anos.

‘‘Em 2009 tinhaSheik, Adriano, Bruno…
Era uma galera boa,né, malandro? Hahaha!’’

– O futebol está muito chato.
Os moleques foram lá uma vez e festejaram. Não é por causa disso que o Flamengo está mal. Como eu disse, o futebol perdeu a alegria, o bagulho era mais maneiro. Eu não reprovo, não. Romário era baladeiro e era o Romário. Ronaldinho era o Ronaldinho. Só não pode atrapalhar a carreira.Pô, tá ligado? – questionou. O Fla ocupa a 11ª colocação no Brasileirão com 44 pontos e chances remotas de terminar o ano no G4 – faltam cinco rodadas e a distância é de nove pontos.

O músico não precisou ir muito longe e nem falar de outro clube para tentar buscar um exemplo de que a curtição fora dos gramados não prejudica o desempenho de um time.

– Para mim, o último grande título do Flamengo foi o Brasileiro de 2009. Com quem a gente ganhou? Adriano, Sheik, Bruno… Era uma galera boa, né, malandro? Hahaha – brincou o cantor, que ainda falou sobre a casa da festa, “cavou” um convite e deu uma dica para o quinteto e outros baladeiros do mundo da bola:

– A casa tem tudo que precisamos para curtir uma boa festa. E vocês sabem que eu gosto de uma. Se me chamarem, eu vou! Mas só tem uma coisa: não pode fotografar… Hahahaha – encerrou com sua inconfundível gargalhada.

EX-FLAMENGO, VAMPETA NÃO ACREDITA QUE HAVERIA

Boleiro das antigas, com passagem pelo Flamengo, o veterano Vampeta também falou sobre a polêmica que atingiu o clube na última semana. Para ele, a punição imposta aos jogadores não teria sido aplicada se Sheik ou Guerrero estivessem envolvidos na festa.

– Eu nunca tive problema com isso, curtia minha folga. Mas queria ver se fosse o Guerrero ou o Sheik nesta festa. Queria ver como ia ser. Não daria em nada, tenho certeza. E outra coisa, se o Flamengo estivesse no G4 nada teria acontecido, duvido. Mas só que o time está mal, fizeram um planejamento para Libertadores e não renderam.

أسطورة تركيا: بداية مصطفى محمد الرائعة مع جالطة سراي سبب تراجع مستواه حاليُا

حلل أسطورة وجناح منتخب تركيا ونادي جالطة سراي الأسبق، أوميت دافالا، الحالة الفنية التي أصبح عليها مهاجم الزمالك المعار، مصطفى محمد، في الموسم الحالي رغم تألقه مع بداية انتقاله إلى العملاق التركي.

ويعاني مصطفى محمد من بعض الانتقادات في تركيا بسبب انخفاض مستواه، خاصة وأنه لم يسجل أي هدف حتى الآن في الموسم بعد مشاركته في 13 مباراة رسمية.

وتحدث دافالا عن وجهة نظره في، مصطفى محمد، مع جالطة سراي في تصريحات نقلتها شبكة “Skorer” التركية، وقال: “يحدث هذا أحيانًا، عندما تسجل الكثير من الأهداف وتكون الأضواء مسلطة عليك، تشعر بالثقة في النفس”.

وأضاف: “هذا ما يجعلك تفكر كلاعب فيما يمكنك أن تفعل في المرحلة التالية، وهنا قد تفوتك الجدية، مصطفى محمد يعاني من هذه المشكلة”.

وتابع: “بعد ذلك يشعر مصطفى محمد، أنه مضطر لتسجيل الأهداف، وسيعيد التفكير في تمركزه الصحيح داخل منطقة الجزاء ومن أين يسدد كراته على المرمى”.

وأتم: “يجب أن يأخذ الأمر على محمل الجد، ويعمل بشكل جيد، ومتأكد أنه سيعود مرة أخرى إلى مستواه المعهود عندما يسجل هدف أو اثنين”.

Chelsea: Man United interest in Ben Chilwell could force Blues to move for Arsenal target

Chelsea are currently in a conundrum over which left-back target to pursue as they continue to kit out their squad with new lavish signings.

The Blues are looking to secure a deal for Leicester’s Ben Chilwell, but have also broadened their search by identifying Sergio Reguilon as another option. According to AS (via Just Arsenal), Chelsea are favourites to sign the Spaniard which could leave the Gunners out in the cold, who are equally as interested in his services.

Both London clubs have been identified as potential suitors for Reguilon, who enjoyed a strong season on loan with Sevilla. The 23-year-old will return to parent club Real Madrid following the Seville club’s Europa League campaign, with Los Blancos valuing him at an affordable £22.6million.

Napoli are also said to be interested in the left-back, but with Chelsea’s hefty transfer fund, they currently lead the race for his signature. The Athletic recently reported that Roman Abramovich is willing to splash as much as £300million this summer on new signings for the season ahead.

Reguilon may not be Chelsea’s first choice, but they may have to shift their full attention to him as Manchester United threaten their stance in a move for Chilwell.

According to The Mirror, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is also looking to revamp his defence and is an admirer of the £80million-valued Foxes man, who is a known target of Chelsea.

With United now in the equation, it could potentially be game over for Chelsea. Both sides finished in the top four so in terms of title challenging, it’s pretty much an even ground. However, the Reds may hold a trump card by also having Harry Maguire on their books. Chilwell may find the idea of joining his former Leicester teammate at Old Trafford more appealing.

If this is the case, Chelsea must step up their pursuit of Reguilon before they are left without a new left-back next term.

With their hefty budget, the Blues will likely table an offer both the Spaniard and Madrid can’t refuse, which will seriously hurt Arsenal’s attempt to bolster their own squad.

Aston Villa must avoid splashing £20m on Liverpool’s Harry Wilson

Aston Villa are yet to make any moves in the summer transfer window – a stark contrast to last year- but latest reports linking them with a move for a Premier League outcast is rather worrying…

What’s the word?

According to The Sun’s Alan Nixon, the Midlands outfit are one of the teams showing an interest in Liverpool winger Harry Wilson this summer along with newly-promoted Leeds United and Newcastle United.

However, they have been told it’ll cost around £20m to secure him permanently from the top-flight champions.

It’s thought that this fee has put off those keen parties so far and perhaps it should stay that way from Villa’s part.

£20m mistake?

The 23-year-old did indeed bag seven times this campaign for a relegated AFC Bournemouth side but a fair fraction of these were from dead-ball situations whilst the Welsh international only averaged 1.8 shots and 0.5 dribbles per game, via WhoScored.

One of those goals was actually at Villa Park early on in the season when Wilson gave Neil Taylor the runaround – per SofaScore, the winger recorded five shots and had 90% passing accuracy whilst his fellow countryman won just one duel and picked up a mediocre 6.6 rating.

Eddie Howe lauded his contribution to the Cherries as “hugely impressive” with his Reds boss Jurgen Klopp claiming that his set-piece ability is “world-class” and “incredible”.

Though despite this, you have to wonder if his addition is needed at Villa Park with Trezeguet and Jack Grealish occupying either wing.

If Jota were to leave, there would be a spot available in the squad but is it wise to splash £20m on a backup? Probably not, especially given the club spent over £140m last summer and were still involved in a relegation scrap.

It could well be another blunder in the transfer market from Villa.

AND in other news, Villains keen on taking Utd duo for Jack Grealish…

أوديجارد ينتقد لاعبي ريال مدريد: من الصعب تكوين صداقات معهم عكس آرسنال!

انتقد صانع ألعاب الفريق الأول لكرة القدم بنادي آرسنال، مارتن أوديجارد، الأجواء داخل غرفة اللاعبين في فريقه السابق ريال مدريد قبل الرحيل عنه نهائيًا في الميركاتو الصيفي الماضي.

وانضم أوديجارد إلى صفوف آرسنال في سوق الانتقالات الماضية مقابل 40 مليون يورو، بعدما فشل في حجز مكان أساسي داخل تشكيل ريال مدريد سواء مع زين الدين زيدان أو كارلو أنشيلوتي.

وتحدث اللاعب في حوار مع التلفزيون النرويجي “TV2” وقال: “عشت لحظات صعبة في ريال مدريد، لكن رغم ذلك تواجدي في التدريبات بجانب أفضل اللاعبين جعلني أقوى ونضجت كثيرًا”.

وأضاف: “عندما تكون في نادٍ ينافس بقوة في أعلى المستويات، من الصعب تكوين صداقات مع لاعبيه، لن يكون ذلك سهلًا خاصة عندما تكون صغيرًا وقادم من مكان آخر”.

وتابع: “الأجواء داخل غرفة ملابس اللاعبين في ريال مدريد كانت مختلفة عما اعتدت في النرويج، عكس ما أعيشه في آرسنال حاليًا”.

وواصل تصريحاته: “اعتقد أن هناك حالة من التشتت بين اللاعبين داخل غرفة ملابس ريال مدريد، لذلك أنا سعيد بالأجواء داخل آرسنال”.

وعن أسباب رحيله عن ريال مدريد: “اعتقد أن كل ما يمارس كرة القدم، يفهم الأسباب، لأنك لا تضمن المشاركة في كل مباراة يجب أن تنال ثقة من حولك دائمًا، هذا يعتمد عليك وعلى أدائك في التدريبات ولكن من المهم أن تشعر بالحب من كل من حولك لتشعر بأهميتك في النادي”.
