Alisson, sobre vaga na Libertadores: 'A gente tem que pensar só nisso'

MatériaMais Notícias

Um Internacional focado no objetivo de chegar ao G4 do Campeonato Brasileiro. Foi o que garantiu o goleiro Alisson após o treino deste sábado, o último antes do Gre-Nal 408 da história, que será realizado neste domingo, pela 36ª rodada do Campeonato Brasileiro.

Para conquistar uma vaga na Libertadores, o Inter precisa vencer os três jogos que terá pela frente e ainda torcer contra seus rivais. O Colorado, no momento, soma 53 pontos e ocupa a sexta colocação. O São Paulo é, com 56, o time que fecha o G4.

– A gente tem que pensar só nisso (vaga na Libertadores) e manter o nosso pensamento jogo a jogo. Sofremos um revés na última partida, que complicou um pouco a nossa situação, mas creio que ainda dá tempo de reverter. Então vamos fazer de tudo pra já reverter nesse jogo – destacou Alisson, em entrevista coletiva.

Sobre o Gre-Nal do primeiro turno do Brasileirão, que terminou com vitória do Grêmio, por 5 a 0, Alisson garantiu que não vê um retrospecto ruim no clássico ao lembrar do Gauchão deste ano, conquistado sobre o Tricolor.

– Já tenho um título esse ano, que foi decidido em um Gre-Nal. Então não vejo como uma maneira não negativa esse retrospecto em Gre-Nais. Pra mim vai ser um clássico, um jogo tão importante quanto os outros. Eu sempre lido da mesma maneira com toda a partida. Como eu lidei na Seleção, vou lidar agora.

A tendência é que o Inter tenha a seguinte escalação: Alisson; William, Paulão, Alan Costa e Ernando (Artur); Rodrigo Dourado, Nico Freitas, Anderson e D’Alessandro; Vitinho e Lisandro López. O Gre-Nal 408 terá início às 17h, no Beira-Rio, e terá transmissão em tempo real pelo site do LANCE!.

دافيد جيمس: محمد صلاح خرج من إحباطه وأصبح يخيف المنافسين

يرى دافيد جيمس حارس مرمى ليفربول السابق، أن الدولي المصري محمد صلاح أصبح لاعبًا مُخيفًا للمنافسين بعدما كان محبطًا الموسم الماضي.

محمد صلاح تمكن من تسجيل 9 أهداف في 9 مباريات بجميع المسابقات هذا الموسم، في بداية مثالية للاعب المصري مع ليفربول.

وقال جيمس في تصريحات لصحيفة “ميرور” الإنجليزية: “هذا الموسم عاد محمد صلاح لمستواه المعهود في المواسم السابقة، بعدما كان محبطًا بما حدث الموسم الماضي”.

وأضاف: “كان محمد صلاح محبطًا بعض الشيء في الموسم الماضي، خاصة بسبب ما حدث مع ليفربول، لكنني هذا الموسم معجب للغاية بما يقدمه”.

وأكمل: “ورغم ما كان يمر به ليفربول الموسم الماضي، لكن محمد صلاح كان دائمًا يساهم في الأهداف، لقد سجل العديد من الأهداف الحاسمة، مع ذلك لم يكن بهذا المستوى الذي يظهره خلال الموسم الجاري”.

وأردف: “محمد صلاح يبدو مخيفًا هذا الموسم للمنافسين، يسجل أهدافًا رائعة وفي كل مباراة له بصمة واضحة، يفعل المزيد لـ ليفربول، هذا هو محمد صلاح الذي أحبه”.

واختتم: “ما فعله أمام مانشستر سيتي شيئًا رائعًا، لقد كان سيتي يستحق الفوز على باريس سان جيرمان، وتفوق على تشيلسي، ولكن أمام محمد صلاح لم يجد دفاع جوارديولا طريقة لإيقافه، لقد عاد محمد صلاح لقمة مستواه من جديد”.

Aston Villa remain in the hunt to sign Joshua King

Aston Villa boss Dean Smith has already bolstered his frontline with the additions of Ollie Watkins and now Bertrand Traore, but it appears he isn’t done just yet.

According to the Express & Star, the 49-year-old is still keen to add another forward to his ranks before next month’s transfer deadline with last summer’s club-record signing Wesley Moraes still on the treatment table.

The Midlands outfit have already splashed £28m on the Brentford striker whilst the former Chelsea winger has raked in around £19m as per the report, so it’s been another window of high-spending at Villa Park.

One name thought to be on their shortlist is relegated Bournemouth star Joshua King, who only returned to training at the Championship newcomers last week.

And Villa have been handed a boost in their pursuit to sign him after manager Jason Tindall claimed he wouldn’t stand in the 28-year-old’s way if an offer came in for him.

Speaking to the Bournemouth Echo, he said:

“I had a good chat with Kingy yesterday after training and Josh is very professional.

“He knows that unless something changes in terms of if the club do receive an offer that’s acceptable and he moves on, he will go with my best wishes because any player that can play at the highest level, especially when you come into the latter part of your career is a great thing.”

It’s previously been reported that King could be free to leave for around £15m, which could prove to be quite the bargain for Smith as he’s a very versatile forward who has consistently delivered in the Premier League.

King contributed to ten goals during a relegation campaign and hit a whopping 16 strikes alone in the 16/17 season, per WhoScored.

Ex-Cherries boss Eddie Howe lauded him as a “complete package” due to him being “outstanding physically, technically and mentally,” and that’s exactly what Villa would be getting.

He also tore Tyrone Mings, Bjorn Engels and Neil Taylor apart back in August 2019, bagging a goal whilst also notching two dribbles, eight duels won and two fouls conceded, via SofaScore.

King would be a very interesting addition at Villa Park.

لابورتا عن أسباب رحيل ميسي: رفضنا رهن النادي.. وبرشلونة فوق الجميع

جدد خوان لابورتا، رئيس نادي برشلونة الإسباني، الحديث عن رحيل النجم الأرجنتيني ليونيل ميسي، وتحدث عن الوضع المالي الحالي للنادي، خلال الجمعية العمومية التي عقدت اليوم الأحد.

ورحل ميسي عن برشلونة في انتقالات الصيف، حيث لم يتمكن الطرفان من تجديد العقد بسبب حد الرواتب الموضوع من رابطة الليجا.

ونشرت صحيفة “موندو ديبورتيفو” الإسبانية، تصريحات لابورتا، وقال: “ميسي شخص غير عادي يحب برشلونة، كان علينا التوقيع على عملية لم نوافق عليها، كانت رهنًا للنادي، والنادي فوق الجميع، كنت حزينًا لعدم وجود اللاعب، لكننا سنخرج من هذا الوضع”.

وأضاف: “ليس من السهل افتراض اتجاه هذا الكيان نحو أسوأ وضع في التاريخ، لم يكن من السهل اتخاذ قرارات، مثل مطالبة اللاعبين بخفض رواتبهم”.

وأستطرد لابورتا: “أطلب منهم الاستمرار في الثقة بنا، كل منا هنا مقتنع بأننا سننجح، مرة أخرى سنكون مرجعية عالمية”.

وأكد: “مجلس الإدارة يتخذ قرارات يكون مسؤولاً عنها، أشعر براحة كبيرة مع مجلس الإدارة لدينا، إنهم يعملون في اللجنة الاقتصادية ويقدمون لنا النصيحة للأفضل”.

وأتم رئيس برشلونة: “علينا أن نرسل رسالة إلى العالم مفادها أننا متحدون وسنصلح الوضع، يمكننا القيام ببعض الإجراءات ولكننا لن نطلب أي شيء إلزامي، علينا أن نسلك الطريق الأكثر احترافًا”.

 

Mino Raiola working to get Moise Kean from Everton to Juventus

Mino Raiola is working on completing a deal for Everton striker Moise Kean to join Juventus, reports Tuttosport (via Sport Witness).

The 20-year-old is keen to leave Goodison Park, due to frustrations over a lack of game time, having managed just 117 minutes in all competitions so far this term.

How big of an Everton fan are you? Can you spot Mikel Arteta from Graham Stuart? This quiz will test your knowledge, try it if you’re brave enough…

World Class score: 95% | Expert score: 80% | Veteran score: 65% | Intermediate score: 45% | Amateur score: 30% | Try Again: 5%

He has scored two goals in that time, against Salford City and Fleetwood Town, but it doesn’t seem as though he is about to get a look in, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin having scored five goals in his first three Premier League games of the season.

This has led to the Italian youngster looking for a route out of Goodison Park, with a return to Juventus being the favoured option.

It is stated that the Serie A champions are only able to facilitate a loan deal at the moment, though that could include a clause leading to them buying him further down the line – Everton are supposedly not keen on the idea of the deal being a loan.

However, it seems as though any completed deal will come late in the window, as Juventus have more pressing matters they want to deal with first.

It seems as though Raiola may still have a lot of work to do in order to complete this deal.

Eurico não acredita em entregada do Fluminense: 'Imaginar isso é ofensivo'

MatériaMais Notícias

Não é porque Vasco e Fluminense são adversários políticos que o presidente cruz-maltino, Eurico Miranda, acredita que o time tricolor entrará disposto a perder a partida pela última rodada do Brasileirão, contra o Figueirense, que luta, assim como o Vasco, para fugir do rebaixamento.

– Um monte de gente fala sobre isso, mas na prática não funciona. Cada um tem seu imaginário. Mas futebol vem da pelada. Ninguém joga pelada para perder, todo mundo entra para ganhar – afirmou Eurico, que ainda rechaçou qualquer possibilidade de fazer contato com a diretoria tricolor para pedir respeito à ética:
– Acho que seria altamente ofensivo, por parte de quem imagina e por parte de quem procura imaginar uma situação dessa.

Eurico esteve nesta terça-feira na Ferj participando de uma discussão sobre o Profut. O clube presidido por ele está na 18ª posição do Brasileirão, com 37 pontos, e vai enfrentar Santos e Coritiba nas duas rodadas que restam da Série A-2015.

How Fulham could look after domestic deadline day

Fulham were one of the most active teams in the country on international deadline day, and with just days to go in the domestic window it once again looks as though there will be a flurry of activity at Craven Cottage – and you can understand why.

The London outfit sit bottom of the Premier League after four games, and there is certainly room for improvement in a number of key areas. Luckily it seems as though the higher-ups at the club are well aware of these issues as the transfer links are coming thick and fast.

Here’s how we think Fulham may line-up after the domestic deadline.

Interestingly, we’ve tipped Fulham to stick with a back four for now, but with Scott Parker experimenting with a back five in recent weeks, don’t be too surprised to see that switch at some point.

The defence looks slightly different from what we have seen so far this season, but one thing that remains the same is Alphonse Areola retaining his spot between the sticks.

We have tipped Antonee Robinson to usurp Joe Bryan at left-back, while Terence Kongolo could take Tim Ream’s spot at centre-back after it was reported that he was having a medical.

Joachim Andersen links up with former Lyon teammate Kenny Tete to make up the rest of the back four.

The midfield pivot we’ve selected features Andre Frank Zambo Anguissa and Harrison Reed playing in the deeper roles, but don’t discount Mario Lemina, Tom Cairney or Jean-Michael Seri getting chances in the near future.

Going forward there’s a completely new look. We’ve tipped the Whites to land Said Benrahma after they were linked with a move by David Ornstein just hours before West Ham’s swoop was rumoured to be on the rocks, while Ademola Lookman and Ruben Loftus-Cheek also earn starting roles.

There are no prizes for guessing who starts up front as Aleksandar Mitrovic spearheads the attack.

Unfortunately, incomings aren’t the only thing expected at Craven Cottage in the coming days.

Indeed, there is no space in our team for either Michael Hector or Anthony Knockaert with QPR and Nottingham Forest both attempting to broker loan deals before the deadline, and we’re building our XI with those deals in mind.

Blindados a pressão e provocações, jovens do Peixe citam 'jogo da vida'

MatériaMais Notícias

Polêmicas de arbitragem no primeiro jogo, postagem provocativa na internet e até pôster já à venda em bancas de revista… Os bastidores da finalíssima da Copa do Brasil, nesta quarta-feira, às 22h, no Allianz Parque, estão agitados, e os jogadores do Santos têm feito o possível para se preservar. Símbolos da juventude do atual elenco alvinegro, o lateral-esquerdo Zeca e o zagueiro Gustavo Henrique concederam entrevista coletiva nesta segunda-feira, e prometeram foco no que consideram o “jogo da vida”.

– Cada um fala o que acha que tem que falar. Sabemos que estamos focados, com um pensamento só: queremos ir lá fazer nosso jogo. Em relação ao jogo do ano, para mim não é o jogo do ano, é o jogo da minha vida. Venho trabalhando muito para esse momento chegar, sabemos o que passamos e o que podemos render ainda. Vai ser o jogo da minha vida, como o desses jovens que vão estar jogando. Eu vou lá para buscar esse título para a nação santista – disse Gustavo Henrique, que já afirmou sonhar com um gol no Allianz Parque, repetindo o feito de Edu Dracena em 2010.

Um dos objetivos do Santos para a próxima temporada é participar da Copa Libertadores, e a única via de acesso para a competição continental é o título da Copa do Brasil, torneio em que o Peixe tem vantagem de 1 a 0 na ida. Neste domingo, na derrota por 1 a 0 para o Vasco, a equipe do técnico Dorival Júnior perdeu também a chance de chegar à Libertadores via G4 do Brasileirão – a distância para o São Paulo, quarto colocado, é de três pontos, mas o rival possui duas vitórias a mais e já é inatingível na última rodada do torneio.

Para os dois jovens, a pressão de conquistar a Copa do Brasil em nome da meta de disputar a Libertadores existe e é grande, mas não pode atrapalhar o rendimento do Peixe contra o Palmeiras.

– Pressão vai ter, porque é uma final de campeonato jogando na casa do Palmeiras. São times grandes. Se não tiver pressão, não vai ser o futebol. Acho que o grupo acata, sabe da pressão. O que passamos no começo do ano só nós sabemos. Agora é botar em prática tudo o que foi feito – disse Zeca, antes do parceiro completar:

– Vai ser uma pressão muito grande, mas estamos focados. Sabemos o que precisa ser feito, estamos treinando. Deixamos de ficar com a família no domingo para virmos aqui treinar, fazer o trabalho tático. E também sabemos o quanto ouvimos besteira no começo do ano. Nos fechamos, demos a volta por cima. Acho que na quarta-feira temos de tentar fazer tudo o que fizemos no ano, de bom. O que ficou de ruim ficou para trás – afirmou Gustavo Henrique, jovem de 22 anos que pode erguer sua primeira taça como profissional do Santos na Copa do Brasil.

تقارير تكشف موقف كورتيس جونز وألكانتارا وإليوت من مباراة ليفربول ومانشستر يونايتد

يواجه ليفربول، مانشستر يونايتد في مباراة ملحمية في الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز، وكشفت تقارير صحفية عن أنباء جديدة بشأن اللاعبين المصابين في فريق يورجن كلوب.

ويلتقي ليفربول ومانشستر يونايتد يوم الأحد على ملعب أولد ترافورد في مواجهة مثيرة بالدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز.

ليفربول هو الفريق الوحيد الذي لم يتذوق طعم الهزيمة في الدوري بينما يجد مانشستر يونايتد نفسه في موقف صعب على الرغم من انتصاره المثير 3-2 على أتالانتا في دوري أبطال أوروبا.

وفي مباراته السابقة بالبريميرليج، تعرض مانشستر يونايتد لهزيمة من ليستر سيتي في الأسبوع الماضي بنتيجة 4-2 على ملعب كينج باور، وهو ما وضع أولي جونار سولشاير تحت الضغط.

وبحسب صحيفة “ميرور” البريطانية، يبدو أن كورتيس جونز مستعد للعودة بعد تعرضه للإصابة أثناء فترة التوقف الدولي، لكن تياجو ألكانتارا وهارفي إليوت محل شك.

وقد صرح كلوب: “لسوء الحظ، كان كورتيس معنا فقط في فترة الإحماء وسيكون هنا في ليفربول على أمل اتخاذ الخطوات النهائية للتدريب الكامل”.

وأصيب تياجو ألكانتارا ضد كريستال بالاس، ومن غير المرجح أن يعود الإسباني في المواجهة ضد مانشستر يونايتد، بعد أن غاب بالفعل عن ست مباريات ولم يعد بعد إلى تدريب الفريق الأول.

ومع ذلك، نشر نجم بايرن ميونخ السابق صورة لنفسه في المنزل على وسائل التواصل الاجتماعي وهو يخضع لتدريبات بدنية للتعافي.

تاريخ العودة المحتمل لألكانتارا كان مقررًا في الأصل في منتصف أكتوبر ولكن تم تأجيله.

وما قاله كلوب: “ليس من الواضح 100 في المائة موعد عودة تياجو، إنها مشكلة عضلية في ربلة الساق”.

وبالنسبة لهارفي إليوت، فقد تعرض لخلع في الكاحل ضد ليدز يونايتد في 12 سبتمبر، وخضع الشاب البالغ من العمر 18 عامًا لعملية جراحية ناجحة الشهر الماضي وقام بمجموعة من تمارين الساق مؤخرًا ومن غير المتوقع عودته قبل العام الجديد.

Everton’s Alex Iwobi the easy option for Carlo Ancelotti to replace Richarlison

Carlo Ancelotti has an easy decision to make in calling on Everton winger Alex Iwobi to stand in for Richarlison against Southampton this Sunday, with the Brazilian suspended.

Richarlison was shown a straight red card during last weekend’s Merseyside Derby for an over-the-top challenge on midfielder Thiago Alcantara, which added another injury to the Premier League champions’ squad after Virgil van Dijk was forced off early in the first half.

Ancelotti will now be without Richarlison for Everton’s upcoming Premier League meeting with Southampton this Sunday, along with the unbeaten Toffees’ fixtures against Newcastle and Manchester United.

Whoever performs well in place of Richarlison at St. Mary’s this weekend will stand the best hopes of retaining the position against the Toon and Red Devils, knowing that Everton will be far weaker without the Brazil international on the field.

Richarlison has only offered one goal in the Premier League thus far this season, but has provided the Blues’ highest number of successful dribbles (16), the second-most assists (two) and contributed the second-most shots (16) though only directing three on target, per WhoScored.

Iwobi should stand as a strong candidate to deputise for Richarlison against Southampton this weekend, despite Ancelotti only calling on the Nigerian to start one fixture across all competitions and earn the remainder of his 219 minutes through various cameo outings.

His sole start came in September’s 5-2 win over Fleetwood Town in the Carabao Cup, in which Iwobi scored and assisted while penning his only Premier League assist in October’s 4-2 win at home to Brighton.

Ancelotti called on Iwobi to enter the action in the 25th-minute against the Seagulls following an injury to Richarlison, and stated earlier in the year during Project Restart that he still has a great deal of confidence in the 24-year-old.

“I changed him against Tottenham because he had a little problem with his hamstring,” Ancelotti told The Guardian in July. “Against Southampton, I changed him to put more energy on that side and above all to change the system to a line of five.

“It is true he didn’t score, it’s true that he can do better sometimes, but it’s also true that I have a lot of confidence in him.”

Iwobi was later touted as one of several players whose futures were in doubt on Merseyside, with the Mirror suggesting he and teammate Moise Kean could head an exodus of outcasts should Director of Football Marcel Brands receive decent offers.

Everton signed Iwobi from Arsenal for an initial £28million just last year in a deal that could reach £34m, and was awarded a £50,000-per-week, five-year contract, but only featured nine times under Ancelotti following a hamstring injury sustained in December.

Ancelotti could now look to offer Iwobi his first start of the current Premier League season with Richarlison unavailable, given the Nigerian’s form in his substitute appearances only trails James Rodriguez for big chances created per 90 minutes.

Across Everton’s opening five Premier League matches, Rodriguez’s has averaged a team-high 1.07 big chances created per 90 to Iwobi’s 0.86 and Gylfi Sigurdsson’s 0.53. Richarlison, meanwhile, ranks just sixth with 0.23, and has offered a lower output for key balls than Iwobi with 0.94 to the Nigerian’s 1.71, per SofaScore.

Where Iwobi’s limited game time has hindered his output is in crosses with zero recorded to date, though he offered an accurate delivery with every one in four crosses in the top-flight last term while beating opposing players with 62% of his attempted dribbles.

Ancelotti will no doubt miss Richarlison in Everton’s next three games, but his absence will offer Iwobi a great opportunity to impress.

AND in other news, a permanent transfer could be imminent for a £1.44m-rated Everton man after his latest comments.
