DIEGO COSTA STRIKE NOT ENOUGH

Image
Diego Costa's third goal in four matches wasn't enough for Atletico Madrid as Sevilla twice scored late to stun their hosts 2-1 in the first leg of the Copa del Rey quarterfinals on Wednesday, while Valencia also came from a goal down to beat lowly Alaves. Costa struck for dominant Atletico on his first appearance since being sent off for wildly celebrating his last goal at Getafe, this one a superb first-time shot past Sevilla keeper Sergio Rico after the ball ricocheted to him in the 73rd minute. However Sevilla grabbed a hugely fortunate and barely deserved equaliser seven minutes later when a speculative cross deflected off Atletico defender Lucas Hernandez and was then inexplicably pushed into his own net by keeper Miguel Angel Moya. New Sevilla coach Vincenzo Montella sealed his third win since arriving in Spain – all of coming them in the cup – with a much better goal two minutes from time, Joaquin Correa racing on to Wissam Ben Yedder's knoc...

UNHAPPY CRISTIANO RONALDO

           Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane said on Wednesday he cannot foresee Cristiano Ronaldo leaving the club, despite various reports in the Spanish media saying he is in the middle of a stand-off with president Florentino Perez over a pay dispute. Ronaldo, 32, signed his last deal with Real in November 2016 until June 2021, but is reported to be demanding another new contract to bring his salary in line with Lionel Messi and Neymar, the top two earners in world soccer. "I can't imagine Real Madrid without Cristiano, this is his club and the one where he needs to be," Zidane told a news conference ahead of Real's King's Cup quarterfinal first leg against Leganes.         "We all know what people are talking about outside the club, but inside he has to just think about playing, as always. I only want to talk about his performances." Ronaldo collected a joint-record fifth Ballon...

CHAN EAGLES GOOD OR BAD

Image
Too Bad: Anthony Okpotu - There’s a lot of pressure on Okpotu at the CHAN, with the Lobi Stars man the Eagles’ chief attacking threat following Salisu Yusuf’s decision to drop Kingsley Eduwo and Siriku Olatunbosun from the squad. On this showing, it may have been a mistake. Okpotu didn’t have too much service, but his stature means he’s not a viable option for a long-ball game, while Rwanda largely negated his pace. Okpotu remains a fine player, but on this evidence, there’s a danger that Yusuf has left the Eagles a little short.

Walcott joins Everton in £20m deal

Image
                The England striker has left the Gunners after failing to establish himself in Arsene Wenger's Premier League squad, linking up with Sam Allardyce Everton have completed the £20 million signing of Theo Walcott from Arsenal.              The 28-year-old makes the switch from the Gunners, signing a three-year deal, and becomes Sam Allardyce's second signing of the January transfer window. Walcott, who was Arsenal's longest-serving player, scored 108 goals for the north London club but has found game time increasingly difficult to come by this season.         The England international failed to make a single Premier League start under Arsene Wenger this season in a campaign which will determine whether or not he will be included in Gareth Southgate's squad for the World ...

RONALDO IS READY TO LEAVE MADRID

Image
Cristiano Ronaldo is ready to leave Real Madrid as a direct result of the club's procrastination over a new contract, according to a report from ESPN . The 32-year-old believes a lucrative new deal should be on the table following a formidable 2016-17 campaign, while seeing Lionel Messi and Neymar both being rewarded bumper contracts of their own at Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain respectively.  And although initial talks have started in regards to a new deal, Real chief Florentino Perez is delaying a renewal as the Portugal international's current contract still has three years to run. Unwilling to wait, however, Ronaldo is said to be ready to leave because of the slow progress. PSG will make Ronaldo offer on one condition Paris Saint-Germain will make a big-money offer for Cristiano Ronaldo if Real Madrid president Florentino Perez can assure the French club that he will give up his pursuit of Neymar, according to Don Balon ...

BARCA STAR DEMBELE OUT FOR ANOTHER MONTH DUE TO HAMSTRING MISERY

Image
Having missed the  tail end of 2017 with a similar problem, the 20-year-old France international faces another spell on the sidelines Barcelona have confirmed that France international winger Ousmane Dembele will miss around a month of action due to hamstring trouble. The former Borussia Dortmund winger, who was signed for a fee of €105 million in the summer, missed much of the first half of the season with a similar issue, though Barca have stressed that this problem is with a different part of the muscle. Dembele, playing in just his fourth league outing for the Catalans, came off the bench to replace Paulinho with 25 minutes remaining, and while he finished the match, succeeded in picking up another issue. In a statement, the Liga leaders said: "Dembele had a problem with his left thigh and tests have confirmed that the player has suffered a hamstring injury of the semitendinosus muscle that does not affect the area operated on earlier in the sea...

Ronaldo wants Man Utd return

Image
Cristiano Ronaldo has told his Real Madrid team-mates he wants to return to Manchester United in the summer, claims AS . The five-time Ballon d’Or winner is unhappy with the failed promises regarding a new contract at Madrid and is looking to leave the Santiago Bernabeu at the end of the season. The 32-year-old, who has also been linked with Paris Saint-Germain as part of a swap deal involving Neymar, previously spent six hugely successful years at United before leaving for Madrid in 2009.

Chelsea Confused on Signing ( Carroll, Richarlison or Hazard hunt)

Image
The Blues are looking for a short-term or cheaper option to their forward line in January before a bigger investment in the summer West Ham striker Andy Carroll is Chelsea's main target for a January loan, We understands, but the club are assessing options to improve their forward line for the summer - with Watford's Richarlison and Borussia Monchengladbach's Thorgan Hazard candidates. The Blues still consider Alvaro Morata as their main striker after his £55 million move from Real Madrid in the summer, despite his recent five-game goal drought. Nevertheless, they want additional reinforcements, with Sevilla pushing hard to secure Michy Batshuayi on loan and the Belgium striker keen to leave to improve his World Cup chances. They face a fight to make headway before the end of January, however, with Carroll unlikely to be easy to secure on loan as the Hammers are already considering the sales of both Javier Hernandez and Diafra Sakho in the winter ...

Premier League! Liverpool vs Man City To Clash On Sunday @ 5:00pm – Who Do You Think Will Win? (Drop Your Predictions)

Image
This could be a humdinger of a match. Liverpool are really the only ones in the top flight who can match the attacking thrills of Manchester City and after having taken a beating at the Etihad earlier in the season, they will be out for revenge on home soil. Manchester City will be defending their unbeaten form for the season of course and they head into the weekend fifteen points clear at the top. This could be a really tough away game for them though and they will be under pressure. LIVERPOOL FORM Liverpool are on a run of thirteen Premier League matches unbeaten. Will they be the ones to be able to stop Manchester City’s unbeaten streak this season? The Reds have not tasted defeat on home soil in the top flight this season, so they have the form to potentially pull this offer. They have won their last two on home soil, beating Swansea and Leicester and they have rattled off at least two goals in each of their last five games home and away. http:...

ARSENAL SHOWED MORE SPIRIT AT CHELSEA

Image
FOOTBALL NEWS The under-strength Gunners dug in for a 0-0 draw in the first leg of their League Cup semi-final showdown with Chelea at Stamford Bridge   Carabao Cup semi-final first leg and he certainly would have given his squad better player ratings for an improved performance, just days after going out of the FA Cup third round to Championship side Nottingham Forest. Wenger recently urged the media in his press conference to write more about the "coincidental" refereeing decisions that have been awarded against his Arsenal team over the past few weeks. Fortunately for the Frenchman, there were few decisions to moan about on Wednesday night, with the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) making its debut in the Carabao Cup for the first time. https://shalines.com/gadgets/computers/acer-aspire-es1-512-15-6-inch-laptop Arsenal came up against a full-strength Chelsea side and while they leaked several chances to the Blues frontline, an improved performance from...

More Concentration On Champions League for Real Madrid as La Liga slips away

Image
  Zinedine Zidane's men are 16 points behind Barcelona in the Primera Division and will be looking to Europe in an attempt to save their season A crisis is never too far away at Real Madrid. In 2014 Los Blancos ended the year with a best-ever haul of four trophies, yet six months later coach Carlo Ancelotti was sacked. And with 2018 just underway they risk something similar this time around. Los Blancos bettered their 2014 mark by claiming five titles in 2017, the last of those in mid-December as Zinedine Zidane's men lifted the Club World Cup in Abu Dhabi. A week later, however, a 3-0 loss to Barca in the Clasico left a huge dent in their hopes of retaining La Liga. Madrid were provisionally 14 points adrift of their fierce rivals prior to this weekend's fixtures, with a game in hand due to their participation in the Club World Cup. And after the Blaugrana brushed aside Levante at Camp Nou earlier on Sunday, they could ill afford anoth...

Mohamed Salah's early-season success with Liverpool has led to interest from Real Madrid,  Zinedine Zidane's men have misfired offensively this season and are looking for solutions in front of goal, with the Egypt star touted as a possibility after an explosive beginning to life at Anfield. Madrid are aware that a deal during January will be complicated but are set to return in the summer.

Man Utd to swoop for Kane

Image
Manchester United are ready to hijack Real Madrid's move for Tottenham striker Harry Kane, according to Don Balon , via the Manchester Evening News . Kane is in high demand after establishing himself as one of Europe's best goalscorers, and the Red Devils have emerged as the main rivals for a potential Madrid bid. Chelsea and Manchester City are also reportedly interested in signing Kane, but Man Utd are seen as the biggest threat to Madrid.

Liverpool player Firmino faces Holgate racism accusation

Image
Neither Sam Allardyce nor Jurgen Klopp were drawn on the incident during an FA Cup derby date at Anfield, but the FA is expected to ask questions Sam Allardyce and Jurgen Klopp have refused to be drawn on an incident involving Roberto Firmino and Mason Holgate that has seen the Liverpool forward accused of racially abusing the Everton defender. Firmino and Holgate were involved in an altercation during Liverpool's 2-1 FA Cup derby win at Anfield on Friday . Holgate pushed Firmino, who was shielding the ball over the sideline, into the crowd before the Liverpool forward reacted angrily. No action was taken by referee Robert Madley at the time, but he did pass a message on to the fourth official and the allegation of racist abuse is expected to be includeed in his match report - which could lead to further investigation by the Football Association (FA). A Liverpool spokesperson said: "The club and player will fully co-operate with the ...

Messi May leave Barca on transfer

Image
Barcelona could see Lionel Messi depart the club without a release payment if Catalonia is successful in its bid for independence . The Argentine star's contract has a clause written into it indicating he can leave for free if there is a secession, although if Barca were to go on playing in either Spain, England, France or Germany's top flight, he would remain tied to the Camp Nou outfit. Messi currently has a €700 million release clause in his contract, which was signed late in 2017, but if the Catalan independence bid was to be successful, the 30-year-old would become available on a free transfer. For the Barcelona fans i hope they are not praying for this to happen  

Chelsea Makes Move Of £15m On Barkley

Image
The Blues are making progress in their attempt to add the Everton midfielder during the January transfer window Chelsea are confident they can secure a £15 million move for Everton midfielder Ross Barkley during the winter transfer window. Chelsea have come back in for the 24-year-old after he chose to remain in Merseyside to continue his recovery from a serious hamstring injury, despite advanced talks on transfer deadline day in August.  Barkley has only six months remaining on his contract, which means a reduced price could be agreed between the clubs after Chelsea offered double the amount in the summer. "For sure, the club will try to do their best in the market to improve the squad from a numerical aspect," Conte said last week. "I'm a coach, I have to work with my players and my task is on the pitch. The transfer market is for the club and they must decide if they want to improve my squad." He also added that no player will be so...

Can Asisat Oshoala Claim A CAF Award Again (CAF AWARD PREDICTION)

Image
Women’s Player of the Year: Expect the continent’s queen, Asisat Oshoala, to retain her crown this year. Her performances in China since moving to the Far East have been excellent, and while Tabitha Chawinga could have been a rival to her throne, she hasn’t made the final cut. We can’t see Chrestine Kgatlana and Gabrielle Aboudi Onguene challenging her.

Coutinho Ready For A Barcelona transfer from Liverpool

Image
There was a possibility of doing an advanced deal now ahead of 2018-19, but Barca and the 25-year-old have pushed for an immediate transfer Barcelona are finalising an offer in excess of €150 million to secure Philippe Coutinho from Liverpool, which would make him the third-most expensive footballer in the world and their record signing. Only Neymar’s €222m switch from La Liga's leaders to Paris Saint Germain, and his team-mate Kylian Mbappe’s loan move from Monaco - which becomes permanent ahead of next season for €180m - surpass that figure. It would also see Coutinho oust Ousmane Dembele - brought in from Borussia Dortmund last August for an initial fee of €105m that could rise to €145m - as the club's highest-cost recruit. Barca bloated their three failed bids with unrealistic extras for the Brazil international in the summer, but their base amount now would eclipse the €105m Manchester United paid to Juv...
