Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has been worried by his side’s winless run and is starting to feel pressure early on in his AS Monaco tenure. The Principality Club are expected to dig deep against Brugge in order to give their manager the first win since taking charge.
AS Monaco lost to Strasbourg and Reims and drew with Dijon in Ligue 1 while also drawing in Brugge last time out. The forthcoming game is a great chance to kick start the campaign and to take an important step towards at least securing the Europa League spot. The hosts are given to secure three points which seems like a great value bet.
Hitting it early as well are Liverpool, who look to maintain their place atop of group C and push Crvena Zvezda further into the abyss. The hosts are going through…
West Ham United attacking midfielder Lucas Paqueta wants to join Premier League rivals Manchester City in the summer transfer window, according to . The report has claimed that Paqueta has verbally agreed personal terms with City, who won the Premier League, the FA Cup and the UEFA Champions League last season.
The report has claimed that City have already made a bid of £70 million for Paqueta. West Ham, who won the UEFA Europa Conference League last season, have turned it down. However, the Citizens plan to bid again and are confident of getting a deal done for the 25-year-old playmaker.
Paqueta joined West Ham from Lyon in the summer of 2022. The Brazil international made 27 starts and one substitute appearance in the Premier League for West Ham last season. The play…
Bernd Stange expects Syria to encounter a derby-like intensity in a crunch Asian Cup clash with Jordan that looks set to shape Group B.
Surprise 1-0 winners over Australia last time out, a well-organised and dangerous Jordan can secure a stranglehold on first with another three points in Al Ain on Thursday.
Syria, though, have plenty to prove after a frustrating 0-0 draw with a 10-man Palestine left Stange s side with plenty of work to do if they are to secure a top-two spot.
Their hopes of emerging victorious have been hurt by the injury withdrawal of winger Osama Omari, and the resilience of a Jordan team tipped to go deep into the competition will be put to the test as neighbouring nations go head-to-head.
We are looking forward to a special match, St…
Arsenal have rejected an approach from Juventus for goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny, according to the Express.
The Gunners are set to part company with the Poland international, who has spent the last two seasons in Italy on loan with Roma.
Both Juve and Inter Milan are interested in giving the twenty-seven year old the opportunity to stay in Serie A though the former have failed with their opening bid, thought to be in the region of £4m.
The beaten Champions League finalists are on the lookout for a new shot-stopper with long serving number one Gigi Buffon set to retire after next summer’s World Cup finals in Russia.
Szczesny played eighty-one times for Roma in all competitions while he has notched up one hundred and eight-one for his parent club h…
Market: Moreton City Excelsior win
Odds: 5/6 @
Looking to extend on their NPL Queensland purple patch, Moreton City will travel to Gold Coast on Tuesday morning.
Starting with the hosts, while Gold Coast might have secured a bronze medal finish last season, the Yellows have come crashing back down to earth this time around. Suffering a collapse away at Wynnum Wolves over the weekend as they eventually fell to a 2-1 defeat, they have come tumbling down the NPL Queensland table. Hit with a woeful 3-0 drumming at the hands of Brisbane Roar’s U23s earlier in the month, Tuesday’s hosts have recorded just a single victory from any of their previous 13 consecutive appearances. With that extended struggle stemming all the way back to April 28th, Gold Coast have fail…
Bayern Munich concluded their dominant Champions League run with a 1-0 win over Paris Saint-Germain in Lisbon.
Kingsley Coman was the hero, netting a second-half header in a game light on goalmouth action – something fairly unrepresentative of Bayern s campaign as a whole.
From Hansi Flick s masterful stewardship of the team to Robert Lewandowski s goalscoring exploits, the Bundesliga champions were a team to strike fear into Europe s elite this season.
Here, with help from Opta, we have a look at some of the impressive numbers they achieved on the way to glory.
15 (15 goals) finished as the top scorer in the 2019-20 UEFA season, the first time since 2006-07 (Kaka, 10 goals) that neither Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi scored the most goals in a sea…
Youri Tielemans opened his Monaco account as last season s semi-finalists held RB Leipzig to a 1-1 draw to deny Ralph Hasenhuttl s side an historic victory on their Champions League bow.
The big-money signing from Anderlecht struck two minutes after Emil Forsberg scored his club s first goal in Europe s elite competition, with their first shot on target.
The 25-year-old timed his run to perfection to latch onto a ball down the left channel, before cutting into the penalty area and lashing the ball emphatically past Diego Benaglio with just over half an hour on the clock in this Group G encounter.
It was pure ecstasy for the newcomers, but their joy turned to sorrow only two minutes later when Monaco levelled, as Tielemans silenced the raucous home crowd when h…
Domagoj Vida and Croatia have set their sights on winning the World Cup as they prepare to face hosts Russia in Sochi on Saturday.
Semi-finalists at France 98, Croatia are on track to at least match that feat ahead of their quarter-final showdown with Russia at Fisht Stadium.
Boasting the likes of Luka Modric, Ivan Rakitic and Ivan Perisic, Croatia are seen as dark horses to hoist the trophy aloft in Moscow on July 15.
And confidence is high within the squad after edging Denmark, according to experienced defender Vida.
It wasn t our best game. It brought a lot of pressure, especially after loss to Portugal at Euro 2016. We wanted this win a lot. It wasn t easy, the 29-year-old told reporters.
Now the pressure is off a bit. We would like to of …
According to a recent report from Kicker, Bayern Munich are aiming to sign a new full-back so that Joshua Kimmich doesn’t need to keep switching positions as much as he has been as of late. The belief is that Monaco star Benjamin Henrichs is still at the forefront of Bayern’s wish list, as has been the case for a good few months now.
Bayern are going well this season but still need to take things up a notch, and with such a stacked schedule ahead of them, it makes sense to bring in a few more bodies in order to take care of the load.
Bayern are one of the strongest clubs in German football but that really isn’t going to mean all that much if they’re unable to maintain a strong presence throughout the core of their squad. Henrichs gives them a bit of variety …
According to a recent report from Sky Sports News, Wolverhampton Wanderers are currently in talks with Barcelona SC over the potential signing of Leonardo Campana. The teenage sensation featured in the U20 Championship in South America last year, proving to be one of the most popular stars of the entire tournament.
If the deal in question goes through then he would almost certainly make his way into Wolves’ under-23s team as opposed to the senior squad, and he will not need a work permit as he has a Spanish passport to his name.
Many Wolves fans would probably want to see him being thrust into the first team, if only to beef out their squad a bit – and also to see if he has what it takes to succeed at the highest level right now.
Campana has caught t…
