United fans slam James’ Leeds display

Manchester United made a flying start to the new season on Saturday afternoon, powering past Leeds United.

Bruno Fernandes opened the scoring half an hour into what turned out to be a stunning performance from the hosts, with the Portuguese star netting a hat-trick while Paul Pogba racked up four assists.

Luke Ayling’s screamer had levelled the scores early in the second half, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side proceeded to blitz their opponents.

One man who didn’t impress however was Dan James, with the Wales international struggling to get involved in the action before being withdrawn in the second half.

James struggles to make his mark in United rout

Despite the comfortable victory, which has the Red Devils top of the early table, James started on the right-hand side of United’s attack ahead of new signing Jadon Sancho and did not impress fans.

His Sofascore rating of 6.8 was the third-lowest of United’s outfielders after he failed to deliver an accurate cross and lost possession 12 times.

James lasted 74 minutes before Solskjaer sent on Sancho for his debut.

Jokanovic must unleash Davies vs WBA

With Slavisa Jokanovic seeing his Sheffield United side get off to something of a slow start to their 2021/22 Championship campaign, having picked up just one point in their opening two league fixtures, the 53-year-old will be desperately hoping his Blades side can secure their first three points of the season on Wednesday evening.

However, fixtures will not come much more difficult this season than an away trip to West Bromwich Albion, with Valerien Ismael’s side looking to be scoring Championship goals for fun at present, having bagged five in their opening two fixtures.

As such, while United have not exactly been leaking goals, Jokanovic’s defence must nevertheless be at the very top of their game at The Hawthorns to ensure that their side have any hope of leaving West Bromwich with a positive result.

And, having recently secured the loan signing of Liverpool centre-back Ben Davies, a player whom the Serbian manager has already revealed will be part of his squad that makes the trip to West Midlands, it would very much seem as if Jokanovic could be in possession of a player who has the ability to be something of a game-changer the United backline.

Davies must start

While it is well known that, following his move from Preston North End to Anfield earlier this year, Davies failed to make a single appearance for Jurgen Klopp’s side, the defender nevertheless proved during his time with the Lilywhites that he is an extremely capable player in the second tier of English football.

Indeed, over his 19 Championship appearances last season, the £2.7m-rated man helped his side keep six clean sheets, as well as making an average of 1.4 interceptions, 1.2 tackles, 4.3 clearances and winning 4.9 duels per game.

These returns saw the player Klopp dubbed a “leader” earn a highly impressive average SofaScore match rating of 6.99, ranking him as Preston’s second-best player in the league.

And, despite being only the third fixture of the Championship season, a positive result against one of Sheffield United’s main promotion rivals on Wednesday is extremely important for Jokanovic to achieve, as a win would send a real message to the rest of the competition that the Blades are indeed one of the contenders in the second tier.

As such, it would appear highly advisable for the 53-year-old to unleash Davies against West Brom, as the 26-year-old undoubtedly has the ability to help shore up the Blades defence against what is likely to be one of the most impressive attacking lineups in the Championship this season.

Sri Lanka have confirmed their participation in a four-nation Twenty20 tournament in October, also involving Pakistan, West Indies and hosts Canada.The Canada Cup Four Nation Twenty20 tournament was scheduled to be held between August 14-17, but was postponed due to sponsorship issues. Bangladesh were to compete alongside Pakistan, West Indies and Canada, but Sri Lanka will now replace them.”Sri Lanka will participate in the quadrangular Twenty20 competition involving Pakistan, West Indies and hosts Canada from October 10-13,” Sri Lanka Cricket chief Arjuna Ranatunga, told the .The board has also entrusted Duleep Mendis, the chief executive, with the task of convincing leading players to tour England next year. Senior players, including Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara, have opposed the tour, in April and May, as it clashes with the second edition of the Indian Premier League.”I have been asked to see how the matter could be sorted out,” Mendis said. “I will talk to the players and see what best can be done. We are looking at the possibility of the players taking a short break from the IPL to tour England.”Thirteen of Sri Lanka’s players are contracted with the IPL, which will be held from April 10 to May 29. The England tour begins on April 21, but Sri Lanka’s players could possibly miss the three warm-up games leading to the first Test, which starts on May 7. Last year, New Zealand Cricket had permitted five of their players, including captain Daniel Vettori, to skip two warm-up games on their England tour in order to play more matches in the IPL.Less than two months back, Sri Lanka’s players had been allowed to take part in the IPL despite it clashing with the England tour, but Ranatunga recently insisted the tour would go ahead.

Fourth England ODI shifted to Bangalore

The fourth ODI of England’s India tour, on November 23, has been shifted to Bangalore from Jamshedpur

Cricinfo staff29-Sep-2008The fourth ODI of England’s India tour, on November 23, has been shifted to Bangalore from the original venue, Jamshedpur, following concerns over the state of the stadium. The galleries at Jamshedpur’s Keenan Stadium are reportedly in bad shape, raising doubts about the safety of spectators.The Jharkhand State Cricket Association (JSCA) withdrew its hosting rights for the match last week, after the deadline set by the BCCI for the association seeking confirmation about hosting the match ended at 12 noon on Thursday, and the final decision to switch venues was made at the BCCI over the weekend.Tata Steel, which maintains the Keenan Stadium, said it regretted the JSCA’s decision. “It is indeed a pity that the JSCA has taken this hasty step without consulting the company, as the Tata Steel has always maintained that the request from JSCA is ‘under active consideration’ and its engineers’ report on the status of the galleries was awaited,” said a statement from the company.Named after John Lawrence Keenan, a former general manager at Tata Steel, the stadium was built in 1939 at an estimated cost of just Rs 25,000. The Keenan Satdium last hosted an ODI between India and England in April 2006.

Forest handed Max Lowe transfer boost

Nottingham Forest have been handed a major boost in their bid to bring Max Lowe to the City Ground this summer.

What’s the talk?

That’s according to a report by Football League World, who claim that, despite having seen an initial offer rejected for the Sheffield United left-back, Dane Murphy is now close to completing a season-long loan deal for the defender.

Further reports had claimed that both Swansea City and Reading were also interested in the former Derby County man, however, it would now appear as if Forest have won the race for the 24-year-old.

Murphy will be buzzing

Considering just how short Chris Hughton’s side currently is at left-back, as well as having seen an initial offer for Lowe turned down by the Blades, the fact that the Reds now appear to be close to landing the defender is sure to have left Murphy buzzing.

Indeed, while summer signing Jordi Osei-Tutu had been filling in on the left-hand side of defence, his recent injury has once again left Hughton with only Gaetan Bong as a viable option in the position – with the 33-year-old having been informed he was free to leave the club earlier this summer.

As such, it very much appeared a priority for Murphy to bring in a fresh face in the position prior to the closure of the summer transfer window on Tuesday, and, in Max Lowe, it would appear the Forest CEO has landed an extremely capable player.

While it is true that Lowe failed to establish himself in Sheffield United’s starting XI last season, making just eight Premier League appearances over the course of the club’s campaign, the 24-year-old nevertheless proved during his time at Derby that he will be a very useful player for Hughton this season.

Indeed, over his 29 Championship appearances for the Rams in 2019/20, the £2.7m-rated defender helped his side keep three clean sheets, as well as making an average of 1.6 interceptions, 3.7 tackles, 1.6 clearances and winning 6.9 duels per game.

These returns saw the man Danny Law dubbed an “impressive” player earn an average SofaScore match rating of 6.83, ranking the £14k-per-week left-back as the club’s 14th-best performer in the second tier of English football.

As such, should Forest indeed go on to complete a deal for the former England U20 international in the coming days, it would undoubtedly come as a massive boost for Hughton, who is very much in need of one following the Garibaldi’s diabolical start to the season.

سبورت توضح قرار رافينها بشأن الانتقال إلى برشلونة

كشفت صحيفة “سبورت” الكتالونية قرار جناح الفريق الأول لكرة القدم بنادي ليدز يونايتد، رافينها، خاصة مع وجود اهتمام كبير من جانب برشلونة لضم اللاعب في الميركاتو الصيفي الحالي.

وارتبط رافينها بالعديد من الأندية خلال الفترة الماضية على رأسها برشلونة وآرسنال ولكن اللاعب يريد الانتقال إلى قلعة “كامب نو”.

هناك اتفاق بين رافينها وبرشلونة منذ فترة طويلة، ولكن ما يعرقل الصفقة هي طلبات ليدز يونايتد المالية لأنه يريد الحصول على 70 مليون يورو وهو رقم مرتفع للغاية.

ويعاني برشلونة في نفس الوقت من أزمة مالية حادة منذ بداية انتشار فيروس كورونا في عام 2020، وأجبرت الفريق الكتالوني على التفريط في العديد من النجوم مثل ليونيل ميسي، لويس سواريز وأنطوان جريزمان.

رافينها يريد التوقيع مع برشلونة وكذلك وكيله، ديكو، ولكن الوضع الاقتصادي في النادي الكتالوني لا يجعل الصفقة ممكنة مع وجود أندية مثل آرسنال، تشيلسي وتوتنهام في الصورة مع إمكانياتهم المالية الكبيرة.

Série D: Bangu mantém embalo e derrota a Portuguesa

MatériaMais Notícias

O Bangu segue com um início promissor na Série D. Neste sábado, a equipe superou a Portuguesa, por 1 a 0, em Moça Bonita, com gol de Daniel Bueno logo no primeiro lance do jogo e, com seis pontos, tornou-se um dos líderes do Grupo A-13.

O ímpeto mostrado no triunfo por 3 a 1 sobre o Villa Nova foi repetido logo de cara. Logo no primeiro minuto, o
atacante, depois de boa troca de bola banguense próximo da área da Lusa, aproveitou um cruzamento, se antecipando ao marcador, e tocou de primeira, enganando o goleiro Ricardo Berna.

Mesmo em vantagem, os banguenses seguiram em cima, diante de uma Lusa perdida na marcação e com Thiago Feltri em tarde infeliz. Porém, as sucessivas chances pararam nas mãos de Ricardo Berna. A Portuguesa deu sinais de melhora após o tmepo técnico, quando teve sua melhor chance após Fernandinho fazer jogada individual e carimbar o travessão.

O Bangu seguiu tomando as rédeas na volta do intervalo, enquanto a Portuguesa se postava defensivamente, apostando em Marcelinho Paraíba na frente. Porém, quando o zagueiro Vinícius foi expulso aos 28 minutos, Estevam Soares sacou o meia para colocar o zagueiro Everton e remontar o sistema defensivo, enfraquecendo ainda mais o seu ataque e quase levando o segundo nos acréscimos, com Leo Bahia obrigando Berna a fazer um de seus milagres no jogo.

Os banguenses voltam a campo no dia 4 de junho, ao receber a Desportiva-ES, em Moça Bonita. Já a Portuguesa enfrenta o Villa Nova-MG, em Nova Lima.
