West Ham fans react to Tarkowski report

West Ham fans have been weighing in on a report from Football Insider which claims that James Tarkowski would ‘jump at the chance’ to sign for the London-based club this summer. 

The Hammers went to great lengths to try and sign the Burnley centre-back in the 2020 summer window.

They tabled three bids for the Englishman, the last of which was £31million, but that still fell short of the Clarets’ asking price.

Now, however, Tarkowski only has just over a year remaining on his Burnley contract, placing the club under pressure.

They know that if he refuses to sign an extension, that he could walk away on a free transfer in 2022.

Tarkowski an option for West Ham once again

David Moyes’ side are said to have renewed their interest in signing Tarkowski, having identified a top centre-half as a priority.

Another potential option for the Irons is Marseille’s Duje Caleta-Car, currently on Euro 2020 duty with Croatia.

Fan feed West Ham Central relayed the Tarkowski report, and here’s how supporters reacted.

Tarkowski to West Ham update receives cold response

“I’m sure he would jump at the chance. He didn’t want us when we had just finished 16th though, did he? A year older, I wouldn’t pay any more than £15m for him. Tempted to just let him rot at Burnley though, tbh.”

رانجنيك يعلن موقف رونالدو وغياب ثلاثي مانشستر يونايتد عن مواجهة إيفرتون

أعلن المدرب الألماني رالف رانجنيك، المدير الفني المؤقت لنادي مانشستر يونايتد، موقف الدولي البرتغالي كريستيانو رونالدو، مهاجم الفريق، من اللعب في مباراة الغد أمام إيفرتون بالدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز.

مانشستر يونايتد يحل ظهر غدًا السبت ضيفًا على إيفرتون، في المباراة التي تُقام على ملعب “جوديسون بارك”، ضمن لقاءات الجولة الثانية والثلاثين من الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز.

وقال رانجنيك في المؤتمر الصحفي الخاص بالمباراة: “رونالدو عاد من جديد، لوك شاو لا يزال مُصابًا، سيغيب لمدة أسبوعين أو ثلاثة”.

وأضاف: “رافاييل فاران لا يزال مُصابًا أيضًا، والأمر نفسه لسوء الحظ ينطبق على ماكتومناي”.

وواصل: “غدًا سيكون في انتظارنا مباراة مهمة، نحن ندخل الجزء الأهم من الموسم، علينا الالتزام بالشخصية والطاقة، والفوز بالمباراة في الأجواء التي من المحتمل أن تكون مشابهة جدًا لتلك الموجودة في ليدز”.

وتابع: “نحن جميعًا نُدرك أهمية المباراة لكلا الفريقين، بالنسبة لي، فإن خطة المباراة وتكتيكاتها هي شيء واحد ليوم غد، ولكن ربما يكون الشيء الأكثر أهمية هو العقلية والسلوك “.

وأكمل: “الانتصار غدًا يتعلق بنوع اللاعبين المتاحين لدينا.. كما تعلم لدينا عدد غير قليل من المهاجمين المفقودين في الأسبوعين والأشهر الماضية، في الأسبوعين الأولين لي هُنا، ركزنا على أن نكون أكثر استقرارًا من الناحية الدفاعية وعدم قبول العديد من الأهداف، وهو ما فعلناه”.

وأتبع: “ثم في إحدى المراحل، اكتشفنا أيضًا أننا احتجنا إلى خطة للخروج من الاستحواذ على الكرة لخلق الفرص بأنفسنا، في الوقت الحالي يتعلق الأمر بجمع كلا الجزئين معًا”.

وأردف: “لم أتفاجأ من اتساق الفريق، كنت أعرف ذلك منذ البداية عندما ترى العملية برمتها خلال الأشهر الأربعة ونصف الماضية، أعتقد أننا طورنا الفريق في بعض المجالات ولكن كما قلت، الأمر كله يتعلق بأن تكون متسقًا، هذا ما يجب أن نبدأ به، علينا أن نبدأ غدًا بأفضل أداء ممكن”.

وحول إمكانية تأهل مانشستر يونايتد إلى دوري أبطال أوروبا في الموسم المُقبل: “أرى أنه لا يزال لدينا فرصة، ولكن من أجل القيام بذلك نحن بحاجة للفوز”.

وأتم: “يجب علينا أن نفوز في المباراة القادمة، ومن ثم يمكننا التحدث عن المباريات الأخرى، إذا نظرت إلى الوضع الحالي في الجدول، لا يُمكننا تحمل خسارة النقاط بعد الآن وأعتقد أن الجميع في الفريق على علم بذلك “.

Roger Machado não deve ter o trio de atacantes no clássico com Cruzeiro

MatériaMais Notícias

O treinador Roger Machado terá pelo menos duas baixas importantes para o clássico com o Cruzeiro, nesta quarta-feira, às 19h30, válido pela Primeira Liga, no Mineirão: os atacantes Robinho e Fred, que podem ter a companhia do também atacante Luan. Os três formaram o trio de ataque titular de Roger durante a pré-temporada.

O primeiro foi expulso na primeira rodada da Primeira Liga de 2016, na vitória por 1 a 0 sobre o Atlético-PR, após agredir o lateral-direito Léo. O atacante recebeu cinco jogos de gancho e como já cumpriu quatro ano passado, resta só mais um.

Já Robinho saiu de campo no intervalo do amistoso entre Brasil x Colômbia, na última quarta-feira. O camisa 7 fraturou a coluna e será desfalque por mais duas semanas.

O atacante Luan pode aumentar a lista. Poupado contra o América-TO, na estreia do time no Mineiro, o Menino Maluquinho sente dores no joelho direito e pode ser poupado.

Outro que também deve ser poupado é o zagueiro Leonardo Silva. Recuperado de lesão, ele voltou a treinar apenas na última semana. Por fim, o goleiro Victor, que se recupera de uma cirurgia no ombro direito, também está fora.

Yes we can win the County Championship says Peter Bowler

Last season Peter Bowler helped the club to the best ever season in their history when they ended as runner’s up in the County Championship and won the Cheltenham and Gloucester Trophy

Richard Walsh16-Feb-2002Peter Bowler who enjoyed one of the best season’s of his long career in 2001 told me earlier this week,” I can’t ever remember being so excited about a new cricket season.”He continued, “It’s great to see the club back towards where they were in the 1980’s, and to have the community behind us.”Last season Peter Bowler helped the club to the best ever season in their history when they ended as runner’s up in the County Championship and won the Cheltenham and Gloucester Trophy.In the championship he scored almost 800 runs at an average of just over 42 runs, as well as scoring 560 runs in the Norwich Union League.”At last it’s all coming together after six or seven years. People forget all of the preparation that has been done. We’ve done all of the hard work to get the young side that we have now – we’re not quite there yet – but can look forward to being one of the top four sides in the country.”How about his own performances I asked. “I’m still improving as a batsman, I’m getting smarter. Physically I’m deteriorating, but just how fast depends on working hard at my fitness.I hope that I can hold back the years by keeping fit and at the moment I feel very fit. I know that I can bat, but it’s all the other bits, running and the athleticism. I’m working very hard at it,”he told me.At the age of thirty eight, how much longer did he see himself continuing in first class cricket. “I don’t even think about stopping playing at the moment. I’m lucky that I have prepared for the next stage of my life, and I’m free to enjoy what I like doing, and that’s playing cricket, batting,” he said, and continued, “While I feel there’s a job to do I’m keen to do it. The game will tell me when it’s finished with me.”What about next season I asked him. “We have our best chance in the one day competitions, especially in the Sunday League. To win the knock out cups you need a bit of luck,” he told me.What about the County Championship in 2002. “To win the championship we have to keep everybody fit and a couple of the young bowlers have to come to the fore. Yes we can win it, but need it all to go our way through the season.”He concluded, “I’ve never won a championship medal. At Derbyshire we ended third and last season we were second. It would be as good a reason as any to go on playing if we don’t win it this year!”

Gers eye Santos Borre

According to Football Insider, Glasgow Rangers are preparing a deal to try and sign Rafael Santos Borre from River Plate.

The Lowdown: Gers prepare for new campaign

The Gers enjoyed a fantastic campaign last term, winning the Premiership for the first time in 10 years without losing a single game in the competition (thefishy.co.uk). That success also saw them earn a place in the Champions League third qualifying round.

As such, Steven Gerrard and co will need to prepare their squad for a big upcoming season, and that will no doubt include new arrivals to bolster the depth at the manager’s disposal.

The Latest: Gers eye Santos Borre

Now, it has been reported from an Ibrox source that the Gers have a concrete interest in signing Santos Borre this summer.

The 25-year-old’s contract at River will run out at the end of this month, meaning he could be signed on a free transfer despite his club valuing him at £15m.

The Light Blues are just one of a number clubs in pursuit of the Colombia international.

The Verdict: Top target

Signing Santos Borre would be a real signal of intent from the 55-time Scottish champions.

He is valued at £15.3m (Transfermarkt), higher than any player currently in the Rangers squad, and he has managed a healthy 74 goals in 212 games throughout his club career. 56 of those have come in 149 for his current outfit, and his profile has even been compared to that of Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez (onefootball.com).

He has also been successful at the highest level, winning both the Copa Libertadores and the Copa Sudamericana. As the report says, there will be a big battle to sign the forward, but if the Gers can take him to Ibrox, he could prove to be a very astute signing considering the finances involved.

In other news, this man has been urged to leave Rangers.

Após atraso, Abel Braga lamenta condição de estádios no Carioca: 'Todo ano é isso'

MatériaMais Notícias

A forte chuva que caiu em Xerém na noite deste domingo adiou o começo da partida entre Fluminense e Portuguesa no estádio Los Larios. Prestes a entrar em campo pela terceira rodada do Campeonato Carioca, o técnico Abel Braga lamentou a condição dos palcos usados na competição.

– É uma pena, não tem condição de jogo. O Carioca tem charme, tem Fla-Flu, Vasco e Flamengo, Clássico Vovô. Mas, todo ano é isso. Problemas no campo, precisa jogar em outra cidade – disse o treinador.

Depois de meia hora, os árbitros ainda avaliaram as condições do encharcado gramado de Xerém e deram início ao confronto. Para o treinador, antes de começar a partida, não haviam condições da bola rolar neste domingo.

– A bola não corre, não quica, não faz nada. Como é isso? Quarta-feira já temos outro jogo. Pior é o juiz ver que não tem condição e parar depois. Vai ter muito choque, contato físico. Tecnicamente, o jogo vai ser horroroso – concluiu.

Ceni conta com estreia de Pratto no São Paulo em confronto com Mirassol

MatériaMais Notícias

O técnico Rogério Ceni pretende contar com o atacante Lucas Pratto já para a partida deste sábado, quando o São Paulo recebe o Mirassol, às 19h30, no Morumbi. Principal reforço do clube, o argentino apareceu no BID da CBF na quarta-feira e não foi relacionado para o clássico contra o Santos.

– Se não acontecer nada, o Pratto estará relacionado. Vou levá-lo para o jogo – afirmou o treinador.

Sem Pratto e Chavez, com desgaste muscular, Rogério Ceni escalou novamente Gilberto no ataque são-paulino. O treinador optou por utilizá-lo pela direita, com o meia Cueva mais centralizado.

– O Gilberto é muito competitivo. Não consegui mudar uma função que era dele. Não consegui mudar. Pedi para mudar, gritei, gritei. É mais confortável para o Cueva jogar centralizado. Gilberto se sacrificou para jogar em uma posição que não era dele – analisou Ceni.

Com a vitória sobre o Santos, o São Paulo chegou a seis pontos no Campeonato Paulista. O Tricolor é o líder do Grupo B, que ainda conta com Linense (três pontos), Red Bull Brasil (um) e Ferroviária (um).

Bull reveals his main worry for Wolves’ Pedro Neto - Exclusive

During the back end of last season, influential winger Pedro Neto fractured his Patella during the club’s 1-0 win against Fulham, and Wolves legend Steve Bull fears the winger may not get back to his best form for another two years, comparing him to teammate Jonny Castro who suffered a big setback after his own serious injury.

It would be a massive blow for new manager Bruno Lage as Neto finished last season with the most goals and assists for Wolves as they limped to a poor 13th place finish in the Premier League, compared to previous successive top-half finishes.

Neto was often the most consistent winger for Wolves with both Adama Traore and Daniel Podence failing to perform on a regular basis despite showing their talents in flashes, which saw Neto linked with a big-money move to Manchester United because of his consistent performances.

It was widely expected that Neto would spend a long amount of time out of the Wolves side, but Bull believes that the winger may not be able to get back to his performances pre-injury for another two years, something he spoke exclusively to Football FanCast about:

“First and foremost, we’ve got to get Pedro Neto back and fully fit because it’s going to take longer than what you’d think with that sort of injury. Jonny had his and came back too quick and he’s been out for more or less two years. Pedro’s not long had his operation.”

Neto was able to receive the ball and effortlessly glide past defenders which he did 60.7% of the time as he dribbled past 79 players, the second most for Wolves, only behind Traore whose game is all about getting to the byline and past players.

Lage will know it’s a problem he must overcome in pre-season to figure out how to play without Neto and if he is not going to be on top of his game for two years, then he could think to bring in a new winger if there is no guarantee that Neto will come back the same player.
