WHU fans rage at Johnstone news

West Ham United fans are far from happy after it was revealed the Hammers made an offer of just £6m for goalkeeper Sam Johnstone.

The Hammers are continuing their preparations for the new campaign after a wonderful last term – they managed a sixth-place finish in the Premier League, meaning they will be playing in the Europa League this coming term. However, despite now needing to compete on four fronts, the Irons are yet to make a splash in the transfer market.

A goalkeeper is believed to be on the cards, and West Ham have been linked with a move for Johnstone, who was relegated to the Championship last season with West Brom. According to Sky Sports, the Hammers made an offer of just £6m for Johnstone, which was clearly not enough for the Baggies.

The news was shared on Twitter by @WestHam_Central, and it attracted plenty of attention from the supporters. They took to the social media platform to share their thoughts.

Let’s see what the fans had to say about the Johnstone news below

'Aplaudido' por Eduardo, Alecsandro será titular do Verdão contra o Audax

MatériaMais Notícias

Eduardo Baptista ainda não divulgou o time que enfrentará o Audax, neste sábado, no Allianz Parque, mas confirmou um titular: Alecsandro. O camisa 9 já entrou no decorrer da vitória sobre o Mirassol e foi elogiado pelo técnico por sua entrega, mesmo tendo recebido poucas chances ultimamente.

Nessa quinta, quando a maioria dos jogadores já havia ido para o vestiário, o jogador de 36 anos ficou mais alguns minutos no campo treinando faltas e finalizações com Hyoran, Vitinho e Léo Passos, do sub-20. Não é inédito vê-lo seguir trabalhando no campo após o fim das atividades na Academia.

– Tem que bater palmas, porque é o cara que mais trabalha. Depois do jogo (contra o Mirassol) ele estava treinando no campo, pediu para treinar. Ele busca e é o tipo de jogador que incomoda a gente. E é isto que ele tem de fazer. Olhar para o cara e pensar que precisa dar uma chance – afirmou Eduardo Baptista, em entrevista para o LANCE!.

Após começar 2017 como titular, Alecsandro perdeu espaço para Borja e Willian. São apenas cinco jogos na temporada e nenhum gol. Enquanto vinha jogando pouco, ele chegou a receber sondagens, como do Botafogo. Mas não quis sair, nem diminuiu sua intensidade nos treinos.

Com a classificação garantida para as quartas de final e a uma vitória de ficar com a primeira colocação geral do Paulista, Eduardo tem dado rodagem aos reservas no fim da fase de grupos. Diante do Mirassol, Antônio Carlos e Rafael Marques, por exemplo, começaram jogando, e Erik e Alecsandro entraram no segundo tempo.

– Estes caras te instigam e eles sabem que a gente está olhando. Vou confidenciar, o Alecsandro joga sábado. Ele entrou bem (contra o Mirassol), estava programado, então a gente procura ser honesto e olhar, valorizar os caras que estão buscando. Por isso falei ontem (quarta), a gente às vezes dá mais atenção para quem não está jogando do que quem está. Quem jogou é tranquilo. Ontem (quarta) eu já fiz a preleção, falei depois do jogo, já estão de saco cheio da gente (risos). Eu tenho que cuidar desses aqui (que não jogaram). E dei o treino como se todos fossem jogar sábado. Todos estão preparados para jogar no sábado – completou.

Alecsandro foi o vice-artilheiro do Palmeiras em 2016, com 12 gols – pelo Verdão são 59 partidas e 14 gols ao todo. Seu contrato vence no fim deste ano.

باريس سان جيرمان يضيق الخناق على مانشستر يونايتد لضم دي يونج

كشفت تقارير صحفية إسبانية، أن نادي باريس سان جيرمان دخل صراع التعاقد مع الدولي الهولندي فرينكي دي يونج بقوة، إلى جانب مانشستر يونايتد.

التقارير الصحفية أمس أشارت إلى أن مانشستر يونايتد اقترب من حسم صفقة فرينكي دي يونج مقابل 80 مليون يورو، لكن الأمر لم يُحسم بعد.

صحيفة “سبورت” الإسبانية، أكدت صباح اليوم، أن دي يونج يثير الاهتمام أكثر في سوق الانتقالات، خاصة وأن الوضع الاقتصادي لـ برشلونة يُبشر بأن الصفقة قد تتم لرغبة النادي الكتالوني في المال.

باريس سان جيرمان، دخل الصراع على اللاعب ويضيق الخناق الآن على مانشستر يونايتد، من أجل ضم دي يونج، الذي كان يرغب النادي الفرنسي في ضمه عام 2019، قبل أن ينتهي به الأمر بالتوقيع مع برشلونة.

في برشلونة يستمعون فقط للأندية ويوضحون أن فرينكي لن يغادر إلا بالحصول على الأموال المناسبة لذلك، ليس هناك شك في أن باريس سان جيرمان قادر على أن يصل إلى هذه الأرقام، وكذلك مانشستر يونايتد، لكن حتى الآن لا يوجد أي تفاوض رسمي بين جميع الأطراف.

OF FEATS AND FIGURES

Is Tendulkar a better batsman than Bradman

Shoaib Ahmed01-Aug-2002Is Tendulkar a better batsman than Bradman? Was Garfield Sobers a superior all-rounder in comparison to Ian Botham? Or does Shoaib Akhtar generate more sheer pace than Imran Khan? Or Freddie Spofforth a bigger demon than Waqar?The above are questions that perplex young enthusiasts of the game all over the world. Unfortunately for them (and also for the game of cricket) the yardstick, which these youngsters choose as their reference of comparison, is the statistical analysis of these players.By the above I do not wish to run down or devalue the importance of statistics in the game of cricket. Indeed the study of facts and figures forms an integral part of the cricketing canvas. Probably no other sport in the world lays as much stress and importance on statistics as the game of cricket. The amount of time, research and printed space allotted to statistics by the world of cricket is immense, to the extent of being phenomenal. Indeed the grasp of cricketing records and their implications on performances and merits is of pivotal importance for any cricketing academy but the problem begins when an overdose of importance is attached to statistics alone and other factors are neglected.For me to write on such a topic is more difficult than most would imagine. Not only because I myself started in the field of cricket writing as a statistician but more so because my favourite cricketing scribes have been the great statistician of our times. I am sure that I am not the only one who has based the foundations of his academic cricketing interests on the statistics of the game. But after having remained a chronic addict of facts and figures for so long, I feel that there is a limit to where numbers can guide us in our cricketing queries.Can we really call Taslim Arif the best ever batsman ever produced by Pakistan just because he has an average of 62.62? Can we forget the daredevil cavalier style of Maqsood Ahmed who won the title of ‘MERRY MAX’ on the merit of his aggressive batting in England but never managed a Test century?Is it just for us to call Zaheer Abbas a better batsman than Hanif Mohammad only because ‘ZED’ has more Test runs to his credit? Was Bob Willis a greater bowler than Fred Trueman just because he overtook Fred in the tally of Test scalps?All these are questions whose answer can never be found in the record books.Cricket may well be a numerical analysts’ dream come true but even then it is primarily the domain of the romantists and idealists.The rhythm, which flowed from the bat of Majid Khan in the 1976-77 series against New Zealand; or the sting of Imran’s swing and patience of Hanif’s marathon innings against the West Indies in 1957-58 can never be measured quantitatively.The stature of W.G. Grace, the sting of Fred Spofforth, the bite of Wes Hall, the charm of Bradman and the mastery of Garry Sobers is for posterity to remember. Their impact can neither be measured numerically nor can their performances be compared with those of current cricketers.As with Einstein’s theory of relativity so with cricket; the correct impact can only be ascertained in an environment.Bradman playing against Shoaib Akhtar would face as much of handicap as Tendulkar’s facing S.F. Barnes. Even if Shahid Afridi hits six sixes in an over today, he would neither be better nor worse a cricketer than Sir Garfield Sobers. Even if the record books say that Border, Gavaskar, Steve Waugh, Javed Miandad and Graham Gooch have more runs to their credit than Bradman it certainly does not imply that the latter was not as great a cricketing giant as the others.Drawing parallels in any field of life is a tricky business but in cricket it becomes all the more arduous since here we tend to overestimate the potentials of cricketing records. Indeed records are a great asset but let us not forget the statistics. Let us give due respect to those who create new records but then let us not forget those who created the original records in a time when doing so was a much more difficult and much less profitable exercise.

talkSPORT claim Spurs duo aren’t wanted

An intriguing claim has emerged on Tottenham Hotspur’s plans this summer transfer window…

What’s the word?

It’s thought that defensive duo Eric Dier and Matt Doherty could be two players that the Premier League outfit are looking to sell, as revealed by talkSPORT’s transfer expert Alex Crook on the ‘White and Jordan’ show this week.

“I think there will be more departures from North London this summer. And maybe some surprising names on this list.

“We know they’re open to offers for Davinson Sanchez and I’ve been told this morning that Eric Dier and Matt Doherty could also be surplus to requirements, and maybe that’s a bit of a surprise in the case of Doherty because he performed so admirably under Nuno at Wolves.”

Two key culprits

Spurs’ struggles at the back last season were no secret, and it is indeed why newly-appointed sporting director Fabio Paratici is primarily targeting additions in defence, notably in both Dier and Doherty’s positions.

Atalanta centre-back Cristian Romero and Bologna right-back Takehiro Tomiyasu could be two instant replacements if negotiations go in favour of the Lilywhites in the coming days and weeks.

A combination of individual mistakes – such as Dier’s calamitous display at Leeds – and a lack of true leadership led to Spurs recording the worst defensive record of the traditional ‘big six’ – even arch-rivals Arsenal, who finished lower in the table, had a better defensive record.

[snack-amp-story url= “https://www.footballfancast.com/web-stories/spurs-latest-team-news-transfer-rumours-gossip-and-much-more” title= “Read the latest Spurs news, transfer rumours, gossip and much more!”]

Indeed, the central partnership of the Englishman alongside Sanchez was dubbed one of the worst in the top-flight by former midfielder Jamie O’Hara, so it should be no surprise that both could be up for sale before next month’s deadline.

Dier also often took the critics of the Spurs fanbase. As relayed by This is Futbol, against Chelsea he was branded as an “absolute clown”, whilst even their pre-season win over Colchester this week saw some call him a “disgrace” and “useless.”

Some would surely be glad to see the back of him amid this fresh claim.

Meanwhile, Doherty struggled so much since his £15m arrival that ex-manager Jose Mourinho was also tempted to sell him, according to ESPN. After all, there must be a reason to why Nuno let his first-choice right-back leave for so little under his tenure.

And just like his teammate, the Irishman has received plenty of flak from the Spurs faithful. After leaking five goals to Everton in the FA Cup, Doherty’s ability as a professional footballer was questioned by many, whilst he was dubbed a “serious liability” after their defeat to arch-rivals Arsenal.

Therefore, on the above evidence, you’d imagine that many around N17 will be absolutely delighted with this surprising claim from talkSPORT.

AND in other news, Nuno could secure his next Neto if Spurs sign “exciting” £27m-rated “big talent”…

الخطيب يشكل لجنة لتسهيل إجراءات سفر جماهير الأهلي إلى المغرب

قرر محمود الخطيب رئيس النادي الأهلي، تشكيل لجنة من أجل تسهيل سفر جماهير القلعة الحمراء إلى المغرب، لمؤازرة الفريق في المباراة النهائية من دوري أبطال إفريقيا.

وكان الأهلي قد طلب من الاتحاد الإفريقي “كاف” توفير نصف سعة الاستاد لجماهير القلعة الحمراء أمام الوداد المغربي.

يُذكر أن  كاف قرر إقامة المباراة النهائية لدوري الأبطال بين الأهلي والوداد يوم 30 مايو، في ملعب محمد الخامس بالدار البيضاء.

Visão da rodada: Verdão e São Paulo encaminham vaga para as semis

MatériaMais Notícias

O Linense aceitou jogar as duas partidas contra o São Paulo no Morumbi em acordo entre os clubes que estão nas quartas de final. A consequência se viu logo na partida de ida com a derrota para o Tricolor por 2 a 0, no Morumbi. O São Paulo, que não tem nada a ver com isso, abriu vantagem e encaminhou a vaga com um placar até pequeno perto das inúmeras oportunidades criadas.

Nem mesmo a renda, atrativo para a diretoria do clube de Lins, agradou. O valor arrecadado foi de R$ 60 mil, bem abaixo da sua melhor renda como mandante neste Paulistão, quando faturou R$ 320 mil contra o Palmeiras, em Araraquara. No jogo da volta, sábado que vem novamente no Morumbi, São Paulo e Linense voltarão a dividir a renda.

O outro grande a se dar bem nas quartas de final foi o Palmeiras. Em Novo Horizonte, o Verdão saiu atrás, virou contra o Novorizontino e também praticamente garantiu a vaga. Caso não aconteça nenhuma surpresa no Pacaembu na próxima sexta-feira, o Palmeiras segue até a semifinal com a melhor campanha geral do torneio. O Novorizontino não perdia em seu estádio há mais de dois anos e a última vez tinha sido em 2015 para o Santo André, ainda na Série A2 da competição estadual.

Os outros clubes do interior que atuaram em casa deixaram o confronto aberto. A Ponte Preta superou o Santos em Campinas por 1 a 0 e agora precisa de um empate no Pacaembu para avançar. O Peixe sofreu a quinta derrota no ano em 16 partidas, algo incomum para o time de Dorival Júnior, afinal na temporada passada foram somente 13 reveses. É o clube grande que corre mais risco no jogo da volta.

No pior jogo das quartas de final, Botafogo e Corinthians maltrataram a bola em Ribeirão Preto e não saíram do zero. Em casa, o Timão é amplamente favorito para conseguir uma vitória simples e avançar.

Tottenham Hotspur: Talks underway with Caleb Chukwuemeka

Tottenham Hotspur are said to have opened talks to sign Caleb Chukwuemeka from Northampton Town, according to Football Insider. 

The lowdown: Contract offers turned down

Chukwuemeka is a player attracting significant interest in recent months, with the forward catching the eye with some strong displays for Northampton Town’s academy teams.

Football Insider have labelled him as a ‘rising star’, with the 19-year-old previously attracting interest from Scottish giants Rangers, who recently won the league title under the management of Steven Gerrard.

Chukwuemeka’s current deal with Northampton Town is set to expire at the end of the 2021/22 campaign, and it is claimed that he has rejected the Cobblers’ attempts to tie him down to a new deal.

The latest: Talks with Spurs underway

Spurs have reportedly opened talks with Chukwuemeka over a potential agreement this summer, although it remains to be seen as to what stage they’re at with negotiations on a deal.

Football Insider’s Spurs source has claimed they are discussing offering one of their own young players as part of a potential swap deal, which could make the deal more appealing for Northampton Town.

Spurs’ scouts have reportedly been impressed with Chukwuemeka’s performances during pre-season, with it being claimed that there is a sense that he’s progressed to a new level.

The verdict: A shrewd move for the future

This could turn out to be a smart bit of business for Spurs.

Chukwuemeka has evidently got something about him if he’s attracting interest from a number of Premier League clubs, including a club with the stature that Spurs currently have, as well as Gerrard’s Rangers – the Ibrox manager knows a thing or two about what it takes to succeed in the Premier League.

Obviously this wouldn’t be a deal that would be for the first-team straight away, with the forward not having any experience under his belt in the Premier League.

But in terms of a long-term vision, it’s a signing that could pay off in future seasons for Nuno Espirito Santo’s side if the youngster fulfils his potential.

نادر شوقي: لاعب الأهلي يرى مستقبله خارج مصر.. وطالبت محمد محمود بعدم الحزن

تحدث نادر شوقي وكيل اللاعبين عن أزمة محمد محمود لاعب خط وسط الأهلي مع مديره الفني بيتسو موسمياني، وحقيقة عودة أحمد ياسر ريان للقلعة الحمراء.

وقال شوقي في تصريحات تلفزيونية بفضائية “المحور” عبر برنامج “الريمونتادا”: “محمود مؤدب جدًا ومهم جدًا لا أعرف لماذا قيل هذا الكلام في هذا التوقيت”.

وأضاف: “الأهلي واللاعب لم يصرحا بأي شيء، سواء حدث موقف أم لا ولكن لم يخرج شيء من أي جهة، فلا يمكنني الحديث عن ذلك”.

وأردف: “تحدثت مع محمد محمود لكي لا يحزن وطالبته بالصبر، اللاعب تلقى عروضًا في يناير الماضي، هو لاعب كبير وسيأخذ وضعه في الأهلي مثلما قلت من قبل عن أكرم توفيق، يتبقي دور كامل في الدوري ونريد أن يعود اللاعب لمستواه”.

وواصل: “من السيناريوهات المطروحة على طاولة الأهلي هو عودة أحمد ياسر ريان، ولكن لا يجوز أن يبتعد عن المشاركة لمدة 3 أشهر”.

واستكمل: “إذا كان لا يحتاجه الأهلي فيُفضل بيعه، اللاعب يرى مستقبله خارج مصر”.

وأتم: “خروج أحمد رفعت للاحتراف في إفريقيا الموسم المقبل أمر وارد، ومن المؤكد أنه سيكون لديه عروض في مصر أو في الخليج”.

Brandy stars in drawn game

Damien Brandy hit a brilliant 149 as Leicestershire drew their Second X1 match against Warwickshire at Kenilworth

Leicestershire CCC30-Aug-2002Damien Brandy hit a brilliant 149 as Leicestershire drew their Second X1 match against Warwickshire at Kenilworth.There was also an excellent century from John Maunders as Leicestershire piled up an impressive 413 for six declared in their first innings.Maunders has recently been released by Middlesex and is having a trial with Leicestershire in a bid to earn himself a contract at Grace Road.Coach Lloyd Tennant was full of praise for both players and said of Brandy: “It was fantastic knock and he never gave a chance. He was run out on 149, otherwise he would have still be batting now.”Warwickshire were then dismissed for 294 on the second day with the wickets shared around between a strong Leicestershire attack which included Matthew Whiley, Charles Dagnall and Jamie Grove.But with the pitch getting slower all the time a draw always looked the most likely result. Leicestershire eventually set Warwickshire a target of 313 in 72 overs, but they finished well short for the loss of only one wicket.
