Since Steven Gerrard was appointed as Aston Villa’s manager back in mid-November, the former midfielder has used a total of 24 players at the Midlands club so far.

One of those 24 players is midfielder Morgan Sanson, who, alongside Ashley Young, has made six appearances for Villa under the Liverpudlian, all of them coming in the Premier League.

The Frenchman has started two of the six league games he’s played in so far this season under Gerrard, the first of which came in their 3-1 defeat against Chelsea followed by their recent 2-2 draw against Manchester United.

Even though the 27-year-old has only made 16 appearances for the Villans since arriving from French club Marseille back in the 2021 January transfer window in a deal worth a reported fee of £16m, his future at Villa Park should be starting to come into consideration based on what he’s managed to deliver for the club.

His performances in the Premier League so far this season have earned the midfielder an overall rating of 6.34/10, currently making him the lowest-rated player in Villa’s squad at the moment that has started more than one league game according to WhoScored, suggesting that he has let Gerrard down when given the chance to show what he can do.

In the game against the Red Devils at the weekend, not only did Sanson give the foul away that led to the free-kick that Bruno Fernandes scored his first goal of the game from but the French maestro also gave the ball away in the second half that led to United’s second goal. All of that culminated in him reacting badly when he was substituted off, which he had to apologise for on social media afterwards.

In addition to his underwhelming performances, Sanson has struggled with injury issues since he made the move to the Midlands club, which former Villa manager Dean Smith described as “frustrating,” which shows that he hasn’t been a particularly reliable player for the team.

Moving forward, if Sanson doesn’t start delivering for Villa on the pitch until the end of the season, then Wes Edens and Nassef Sawiris must seriously consider cutting their losses with the player in the next summer transfer window to see if they can reclaim any of the money they paid for him.

Also, with young Villa midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka apparently not happy with his playing time at the club, potentially axing Sanson, who is currently picking up a weekly wage of £59k-per-week according to Salary Sport, from the team could give him a clear path to regular game time to see if he would be a better option than the struggling Frenchman.

قال داركو نوفيتش المدير الفني لفريق الكرة الأول بنادي الاتحاد المنستيري التونسي، إنه من الصعب مواجهة الأهلي في دور مبكر ببطولة دوري أبطال إفريقيا.

وكان فريق الاتحاد المنستيري قد ودع دوري الأبطال من دور الـ32 بخسارة أمام الأهلي برباعية دون رد في مجموع المباراتين، لينتقل لبطولة الكونفدرالية.

مدرب الاتحاد المنستيري: لا نستحق الهزيمة أمام الأهلي.. وكولر فاجئني في الذهاب

وأضاف نوفيتش في تصريحات تلفزيونية بفضائية “أون تايم سبورت”: “أنا فخور باللاعبين لأنهم أدوا مباراة مفتوحة، الأمور باتت أصعب علينا بعد الأهداف التي سكنت مرمامنا من كرات ثابتة”.

وأردف: “بالتأكيد لست سعيدًا بالنتيجة ولكن علينا التعلم من أخطائنا والاستفادة في المستقبل”.

وتابع: “لو كانت مباراة الذهاب انتهت بالتعادل لأصبحت فرص الأهلي أقل، لكن عندما تلعب مباراة مفتوحة أمام الأهلي يُمكن أن تستقبل أهدافًا في أي وقت”.

وأتم: “أما عن المشاركة في الكونفدرالية فهذه خطوة جيدة، هذه المباريات التي لعبناها أضافت إلى خبراتنا، وربما سنصنع فرصًا بشكل أفضل في المستقبل”.

O Flamengo não alcançou os resultados esperados em 2017 e terminou o ano de forma trágica, empatando com o Indepediente-ARG por 1 a 1 no Maracanã, placar que deixou o título da Sul-Americana nas mãos do clube argentino. Apesar disso, o departamento de futebol não deve sofrer grandes mudanças.

Na saída do estádio, Ricardo Lomba, vice-presidente de futebol do Flamengo, garantiu a permanência de Reinaldo Rueda e de Rodrigo Caetano. O treinador e o diretor executivo de futebol seguirão em 2018 e farão parte do planejamento.

– (Rueda e Caetano) Ficam. Os dois são funcionários do Flamengo e ficam para o ano que vem – afirmou Ricardo Lomba, após a decisão, à “Rádio CBN”.

Cobiçado por seleções e clubes sul-americanos, Reinaldo Rueda reafirmou seu compromisso com o Flamengo – o vínculo é válido até o fim de 2018 – na entrevista coletiva antes da grande decisão diante do Independiente-ARG, momento em que se emocionou ao falar do estado de saúde de sua mãe.

Ricardo Lomba assumiu a vice-presidência de futebol do Flamengo em outubro, após o cargo ser acumulado pelo presidente Eduardo Bandeira de Mello desde janeiro. O dirigente afirmou que a diretoria começará o trabalho visando melhores resultados em 2018 nesta quinta, um dia após o vice sul-americano.

– O trabalho começa amanhã (quinta). Vamos acordar e começar a fazer o trabalho. É precipitado falar em lista de nomes (de quem sai ou chega), fazer uma análise de tudo que aconteceu, as carências apontadas pelo professor (Reinaldo Rueda) e começar o trabalho – afirmou Ricardo Lomba, antes de responder se faltou cobrança ao elenco por resultados melhores em 2018:

-O momento é delicado. Não adianta querer buscar as razões ou encontrar culpados de cabeça quente. Não conseguimos alguns dos nossos objetivos. Temos que juntar os cacos e partir para o ano que vem – finalizou o VP do Fla.

A Newcastle United transfer claim has been made, regarding their pursuit of Sevilla beast Diego Carlos…

What’s the talk?

Sky Sports reporter Keith Downie has revealed that the Magpies are in talks over a swoop for the centre-back as they look to strike a deal for £30m.

PIF are looking to improve Eddie Howe’s squad and could now be on the verge of making their third signing of the transfer window, following on from the arrivals of Chris Wood and Kieran Trippier earlier in the month.

Downie Tweeted: “Diego Carlos has told Sevilla he wants to leave for Newcastle United. @SkyKaveh is told the Brazilian defender is handing in a transfer request to the club President. Newcastle are in advanced discussions with the Spanish club. Fee being discussed in region of £30m #NUFC.”

Delight

Newcastle fans will surely be delighted with this news as it suggests that the club are finally close to sealing a move for the centre-back.

They will also be buzzing with the fact that the player is desperate enough to make the switch that he has been willing to go as far as to hand in a transfer request. It shows a desire from Carlos to join the Toon Army and supporters will love to see the passion from him to get the deal done.

The Magpies need defensive reinforcements to bolster their XI as they have struggled badly in that department throughout the campaign. Only Norwich have conceded more goals in the Premier League than Eddie Howe’s team and this suggests that they need players to come in and strengthen the backline.

In Carlos, they could be about to land someone who is able to do exactly that. He has proven his quality in La Liga for Sevilla as he has been consistently delivering quality performances and that shows that he can perform at the top level.

The Brazilian defender has averaged a SofaScore rating of 7.14 in the Spanish top flight. He has helped them to keep an impressive ten clean sheets in 19 games, whereas Newcastle have only kept one clean sheet so far this season – in their only win of the campaign against Burnley.

Therefore, Carlos would surely have the ability to come in and lift the Toon defence to ensure that they keep more clean sheets and give themselves a better chance of picking up points.

Being able to score goals is almost useless if you cannot rely on your backline to avoid conceding two or three goals per match and that is why fans will be delighted with this potential deal for the Sevilla man.

أعلنت المحكمة التأديبية في بوليفيا، أن البرازيلي برونو سافيو لاعب الفريق الأول لكرة القدم بالنادي الأهلي، متمردًا، بعد غيابه عن جلسة الاستماع.

يأتي ذلك بعد طرد سافيو في مباراة أولويز ريدي في الدوري البوليفي بعد محاولة الاعتداء على حكم المباراة، جاد فلوريس، وعوقب بالإيقاف لمدة 3 مباريات، ولكنه رحل عن فريقه بوليفار إلى الأهلي بعد تلك المباراة.

وفتح الاتحاد البوليفي لكرة القدم من خلال لجنة الانضباط التابعة له تحقيقًا في سبتمبر الماضي، بسبب اتهام برونو سافيو، وكان من المفترض أن يمتثل أمام المحكمة اليوم الثلاثاء.

وحسب ما أفاد موقع “paginasiete” البوليفي، فإن المحكمة التأديبية الرياضية أعلنت غياب البرازيلي برونو سافيو، ووصفته بـ”المتمرد”، في دعوى الاعتداء على الحكم جاد فلوريس.

وأشارت التقارير إلى أنه تم استدعاء سافيو للإدلاء بأقواله حول الواقعة، لكن علم أنه لم يفعل ذلك في التاريخ المحدد لتواجده مع فريقه في مصر، مما جعل المحكمة تحدد له موعدًا اليوم عبر الإنترنت للتواصل افتراضيًا، لكن اللاعب لم يمتثل أمام المحكمة، مما جعل المحكمة تعلن أنه متمرد”.

وقررت المحكمة إرسال ذلك الإعلان إلى محل سكن اللاعب قبل مغادرته بوليفيا، وإعلامه بذلك، في انتظار رد البرازيلي عليه.

وكانت تقارير بوليفية قد أشارت إلى أن واقعة سافيو قد تؤدي إلى إيقافه عن ممارسة كرة القدم لفترة 6 أشهر أو عام بالكامل.

وشارك سافيو في مباراة واحدة مع الأهلي يوم الأحد الماضي أمام الاتحاد المنستيري في ذهاب دور الـ32 المؤهل لدور المجموعات ببطولة دوري أبطال إفريقيا، والتي فاز بها العملاق الأحمر بهدف نظيف سجله محمد عبد المنعم في الدقائق الأخيرة من المباراة..

ومن المفترض أن تقام مباراة الإياب يوم الأربعاء المقبل في القاهرة، ويكفي الأهلي فيها التعادل بأي نتيجة ليصعد إلى دور المجموعات.

Celtic are finally back in action tomorrow evening with an SPFL clash against Hibernian at home for their first league match of 2022.

Speaking to the media ahead of the match, Hoops manager Ange Postecoglou shared some injury news that will surely have a lot of Celtic fans pleased and excited to see their team playing again.

What’s the news?

Postecoglou revealed that Celtic winger Jota could make a return to action on Monday after being out injured since early December with a hamstring issue.

He is back in training and now very much ready to join up with the squad again. Whether he starts, however, is another matter.

Fans delighted

Since joining the Parkhead club on a loan deal from Benfica, the 22-year-old has managed to score eight goals and provide six assists in 18 appearances across all competitions, showing just how much of a useful attacking outlet he has been for the team this season and why the fans would be delighted to see him back in the side on Monday if he’s fit enough.

In addition to his goals and assists this term, Jota’s performances in the SPFL have been very impressive as well with WhoScored listing him as Celtic’s fourth-highest rated player with an overall rating of 7.48/10, highlighting just how well he has settled into the team and got to grips with the Scottish Premiership.

Taking all of this into account, it’s safe to say that Celtic would have a great chance of beating Hibs on Monday if they have Jota in their team.

However, given how long it’s been since he last played for the Hoops and how important he’s proved himself to be for the team, it may not be worth Postecoglou taking the risk of putting the Portuguese winger back in the team straight away unless he’s 100% fit and ready to play with no risk of further injury to his hamstring.

Although, with Celtic currently six points off the top spot in the SPFL table, it could be worth taking a gamble with the forward if that will give them the best chance of securing all three points and moving further up the table.

Either way, this match will be a great way for the Hoops to get back into the swing of things and start their year off positively.

Afghanistan continued their seemingly inexorable march to the World Twenty20 with a 14-run win over Scotland at Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi.

Afghanistan celebrate their second successive win•International Cricket Council

Afghanistan continued their seemingly inexorable march to the World Twenty20 with a 14-run win over Scotland at Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. Noor Ali’s blistering 42, when wickets were falling around him, provided the early impetus in Afghanistan’s 131 for 7 and Shapoor Zadran’s remarkable bowling – he conceded just eight runs in four overs – held Scotland at bay to ensure Afghanistan an all but certain passage into the Super Fours.Scotland’s decision to field this morning appeared to have paid dividends when Gordon Drummond picked up Karim Sadiq and Shafiqullah in his first over, but Ali was unperturbed and crashed four fours and a six in his 42. With his partner striking the ball so cleanly, Mohammad Shahzad could afford to play a more sedate innings. His 30 contained just a single boundary, but he rotated the strike well in the 71-run partnership.Kyle Coetzer grabbed three quick wickets – including the hero of yesterday’s game, Mohammad Nabi, first ball – to peg Afghanistan back, and when Samiullah Shenwari picked out Gavin Hamilton off Jan Stander in the 19th over, Afghanistan were struggling at 116 for 7. But a late surge from Raees Ahmadzai and Mirwais Ashraf took the score past 130 and gave Afghanistan’s bowlers a decent total to defend.Scotland would have been hoping for a positive start to their chase, but Navdeep Poonia fell second ball to Ashraf, and Zadran proved almost impossible to get away in his opening spell. When Kyle Coetzer’s painful innings ended on the first ball of the fifth over, he had struggled to two from 15 balls. Hamilton and Neil McCallum clawed their way back with a 66-run partnership for the third wicket, but when they were both dismissed in consecutive balls, Afghanistan had found their opening.Hamid Hassan bowled Jan Stander and Fraser Watts, and when Drummond and Simon Smith fell to Mohammad Nabi in the penultimate over, Scotland’s hopes were extinguished. Hassan shattered Majid Haq’s stumps with the last ball of the innings to seal an emphatic victory, sending Scotland crashing out of contention and Afghanistan almost certainly through to the next round.If they beat the USA and Scotland defeats Ireland, then the USA, Scotland and Ireland will be locked on two points each with net run-rate deciding which team joins Afghanistan in the Super Four stage from Group A.

Trinidad & Tobago and Guyana are to play each other in a fund-raising charity Twenty20 match to aid victims of the catastrophic earthquake which struck Haiti three days ago

Cricinfo staff15-Jan-2010Trinidad & Tobago and Guyana are to play each other in a fund-raising charity Twenty20 match to aid victims of the catastrophic earthquake which struck Haiti three days ago. The match is to be held on 20 January at the Queen’s Park Oval in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago.”Haiti’s pain and cry for assistance cannot be over-emphasized,” said Dinanath Ramnarine, president of WIPA. “It is a catastrophe of such magnitude that should stir the conscience of every individual–locally, regionally and internationally–to make a herculean effort to contribute tangibly towards the alleviation of the problems faced by this unfortunate and one of the poorest, if not the poorest, country in the world.”The disaster in Haiti took place only three days ago. Our exercise started just this morning. You could well appreciate the challenges we have been facing in organizing this game in the middle of the regional tournament and in securing sponsorship and dealing with the logistics.”The two teams to be involved in the charity match are currently playing each other in a historic first-class four-day game at the Sir Vivian Richards Ground in Antigua. The game is the first to be played at night, under lights, using a pink ball. While the players may have been focussed on coming to terms with these innovations, their minds will also have been on the unfolding crisis in Haiti.”The staging of this game for a noble cause enables players to appreciate the pros and cons of their own circumstances over which they sometimes have little control,” said Azim Bassarath, president of the Trinidad and Tobago cricket board. “It brings them into focus with reality. It inculcates in them a certain humility and the need to be selfless. It shows them how important it is, as a team, to work together to deal with challenges and to overcome despair and defeat.””Like a cricket game, in life there are also the ebb and flow. Let us all acknowledge that the test of character is when the chips are down. It is our hope that our effort for the Haiti cause would motivate the people of that unfortunate country to rise like the Phoenix and return to normalcy after its cataclysmic experience.”The International Red Cross estimates that about three million people were affected by the earthquake, which devastated the capital Port-au-Prince and caused an estimated 45,000-50,000 deaths.
