Leeds must snap up £5m bargain in Fulham’s Joe Bryan

Despite having won the Championship, Leeds United may well have been keeping a close eye on the play-off final this month between Fulham and Brentford.Both sides featured potential transfer targets for the Whites, including the likes of Said Benrahma and Ollie Watkins. But it was the Cottagers who came out on top, and there was one man who was arguably solely responsible for Scott Parker’s side clinching their own return to the Premier League: Joe Bryan.Reports in recent days have suggested that Marcelo Bielsa’s side have joined the race to sign Bryan this summer, and if they were to judge him based off his last performance in a Fulham shirt, then a move should be a no-brainer for Victor Orta and co.

Is it Haaland Snr or David Hopkins? Your Leeds knowledge will be put to the test with this quiz…

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

Despite playing at left-back, he struck both goals and proved to be the match-winner for Parker’s side as they beat Brentford 2-1 at Wembley. His opening strike was a brilliantly taken free-kick, catching out David Raya at his near post. It prompted former England boss Glenn Hoddle to rave about it on Twitter, even likening him to Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne.

And then, what eventually proved to be the decisive goal, Bryan linked up superbly with Aleksandar Mitrovic before firing past Raya inside the penalty box. It was a performance that was brimming with attacking intent, and showed just exactly what he can bring to the table – particularly going forward. His play-off final display was just the culmination of an impressive 2019/2020 campaign, in which he scored three times and racked up eight assists across all competitions.

With reports claiming that Fulham have set a valuation of around £5m, it would be an absolute bargain for Leeds to snap him up and add him to their ranks before the start of the new Premier League campaign. If Bielsa is keen on playing attacking football in the top-flight too, then having a goal-scoring full-back in his team sounds like a perfect match.

Cristaldo se desculpa por cotovelada: 'Somos exemplo para os pequenos'

Depois de ser suspenso por duas partidas pelo STJD – uma já cumprida -, o atacante Cristaldo pediu desculpas pela cotovelada que acertou no zagueiro Gustavo Henrique, do Santos, em lance sem bola que motivou sua expulsão na derrota palmeirense por 2 a 1, pelo Brasileirão, na Vila Belmiro.

– O Marcelo me contou, falou que eu estava suspenso. Bom, acontece, são coisas que eu tenho que aprender. Não fui bem naquele momento, também porque tenho que dar exemplo, tem muito torcedor pequeno vendo o jogo. Errei, peço desculpa – disse o jogador.

Quando questionados sobre o assunto, os demais jogadores do Palmeiras saem em defesa de Cristaldo e dizem que ele só reagiu por ter sido provocado pelo santista. O argentino admite, mas não revela o que o tirou do sério.

– Não vou te contar, não vou te contar (risos). Os dois foram mal, eu e ele também.

O camisa 9, que tem contrato até o meio de 2018, também foi questionado sobre seu futuro. Ele recebeu propostas neste ano e acabou permanecendo, mas não se sabe se continuará no Palestra Itália em janeiro.

– Eu estou aqui no Palmeiras, tenho contrato muito longo e estou bem, feliz, contente. Como eu sempre falo, o futebol pode mudar de um dia para outro, ninguém tem certeza de onde vai jogar. Se amanhã chegar uma proposta para mim, pode ser que eu saia, mas hoje estou aqui.

مدرب باريس سان جيرمان السابق: شيء واحد قد يغير قرار مبابي بشأن مستقبله مع النادي

أعرب الفرنسي لويس فرنانديز، مدرب باريس سان جيرمان السابق، عن اندهاشه من تحدث والدة كيليان مبابي، مهاجم النادي الباريسي، حول مستقبل نجلها مع وصيف فرنسا.

وكانت والدة مبابي قد قالت منذ أيام قليلة، أن نجلها من الممكن أن يجدد تعاقده مع باريس سان جيرمان، وذلك في الوقت الذي أعلن فيه اللاعب الفرنسي، بأنه أخبر إدارة ناديه برغبته في الانتقال إلى ريال مدريد.

وقال فرنانديز في تصريحات لإذاعة “SER” الإسبانية: “لقد فوجئت بخروج والدة مبابي والتصريح لوسائل الإعلام، عليك أن تنتظر قليلًا لأن العديد من التصريحات من اللاعب والأم يذهب كل منهما بطريقته الخاصة”.

وأضاف: “أنا لا أتذكر أن والدة بلاتيني أو لاعبين كبار مثله خرجت وتحدثت عن مثل هذا الشأن في وسائل الإعلام”.

وواصل: “عندما اضطروا للحديث من قبل، كان ذلك ضروريًا، لأن مبابي كان لاعبًا شابًا، لكنه الآن اكتسب الخبرات، ويُمكنه أن يتخذ قرارًا بشكلٍ جيد، لقد أعلن رغبته في المغادرة، وهذا أمر واضح”.

وأكمل: “باريس سان جيرمان قادر على تجديد عقد مبابي والإبقاء عليه إلى جانب ليونيل ميسي ونيمار، من أجل تحقيق حلم الفوز بدوري أبطال أوروبا”.

وتابع: “في حال تحقيق ذلك، ربما تتغير الأمور، ومن الممكن أن يخرج مبابي نفسه ويصرح بأنه سعيد في باريس سان جيرمان”.

وأنهى تصريحاته قائلًا: “بعد 6 أشهر، سيخرج مبابي ويقول إما سأبقى أم سأرحل”.

Wolves must sign their perfect right wing-back in Ainsley Maitland-Niles

Wolverhampton Wanderers kickstarted the new campaign with a bang on Monday evening and they could fire another warning shot to the rest of the league with a swoop for one mooted transfer target…

What’s the word?

According to the Telegraph’s Mike McGrath, the Midlanders are poised to make another attempt to sign Arsenal utility man Ainsley Maitland-Niles before the window closes next month.

He claims that Nuno Santo is still keen on the newly-capped England star as a potential replacement for the recently-departed Matt Doherty.

It’s thought that the decision could come down to the player himself as he wants assurances over playing time having broke into Gareth Southgate’s Three Lions during the international break, though he started the Gunners’ opener vs Fulham on Saturday.

Perfect fit

Yesterday evening saw Adama Traore revert back to the right wing-back position but after providing six goals and 12 assists last season, he’s better off in an advanced role up the field.

His versatility surely makes him a dream fit for Nuno’s system at Molineux. At the weekend he played left wing-back having started his career out as a midfielder.

In 20 appearances last season, Maitland-Niles averaged 2.1 tackles, 1.6 clearances, one dribble and 0.6 key passes per game, via WhoScored.

Despite not being a regular starter in north London, the 23-year-old has received plenty of glowing endorsements for his performances in an Arsenal shirt.

Former Gunners striker Jeremie Aliadiere believes Maitland-Niles has “all the attributes to become a top player” whilst BT Sport pundit Chris Sutton labelled him a “diamond” who’s a “versatile talent”.

“The young man’s versatility is a weapon, as is his pace and the way he reads the game”

Chris Sutton.

Wolves will become seriously restricted if they head past October with just Traore as the only option on the right, so Jeff Shi must sanction the £30m swoop, it could soon prove to be one of the coups of the window.

Maitland-Niles would fit in like a glove in the Midlands.

AND in other news, Wolves have to avoid signing yet another Jorge Mendes client in injury-prone flop…

Wolves are now learning the negatives of alligning with Jorge Mendes

Wolverhampton Wanderers have one man to thank more than any for their recent successes, and that man is Jorge Mendes.

The Portuguese super-agent has brokered some unbelievable deals for the Midlands club over the past few years due to his close links with the Fosun group.

He’s been responsible for the likes of Ruben Neves, Nuno Espirito Santo, Joao Moutinho and Rui Patricio turning up at Molineux, but as with any ‘quid pro quo’ agreement Wolves eventually have to give something back.

Of course, Mendes has benefitted himself from these deals, with his players’ moves earning him a nice sum of money, but agents have a reputation for being untrustworthy for a reason, and now we’re starting to see the brutal trade-off Wolves have to make.

Matt Doherty became a Mendes client not too long ago, and he moved this summer for a cut-price deal to Tottenham, to work under another of Gestifute’s clients, Jose Mourinho.

Wolves then paid a club-record £35m for Fabio Silva, with Mendes personally pocketing over £6m upon the completion of that deal, while Diogo Jota is also set to depart for £45m.

Players moving is a part and parcel of football, and a club that aren’t challenging on the European stage will struggle to keep hold of these ambitious stars, but everything Mendes has brought to Wolves has been positive so far, but now we’re starting to see negatives as he works towards his clients’ gains rather than the club’s.

Nobody can really blame him, and he’s still done far more good than bad for the Fosun-owned entity, but now we’re learning that you have to take the rough with the smooth and that this recent rapid growth may not be exponential.

Mano brinca com boa fase ofensiva de Willians: 'Coisa passageira'

MatériaMais Notícias

Conhecido pela eficiência nos desarmes e pela entrega em campo, às vezes exagerada, Willians tem sido um elemento surpresa no ataque do Cruzeiro. Neste domingo, o volante marcou o primeiro gol e participou do segundo da goleada sobre o Sport, no Mineirão.

Questionado sobre a nova função de Willians, o técnico Mano Menezes brincou:

-Willians tem feito coisas que não tinha visto ele fazer no futebol. Quando fez segundo gol, eu o abracei e lembrei que ele não é artilheiro, isso é uma coisa passageira – comentou o treinador da Raposa.

Neste domingo, o Cruzeiro teve um pênalti a favor aos 13 minutos da etapa final, quando a partida ainda estava 0 a 0. Willians chamou a responsabilidade e cobrou muito bem, deslocando o goleiro Danilo Fernandes, do Sport.

Na saída de campo, o volante confirmou que vem treinando cobranças de pênalti durante a semana.

-Eu venho treinando todos os dias (cobranças de pênaltis). O Mano (Menezes) disse que eu era a primeira opção. Fui feliz e pude ajudar a equipe fazendo o gol em um jogo muito difícil e intenso – afirmou Willians, na saída de campo.

O técnico do Cruzeiro confirmou a dedicação do volante nos treinamentos:

-Ele treina pênaltis e tem o melhor aproveitamento. Por isso, ele bateu hoje.

Com a vitória, o Cruzeiro chegou a 51 pontos e ainda sonha com uma vaga na Libertadores-2016. Com 54 pontos, o Santos é o quarto colocado do Brasileirão, que terá o complemento da 35ª rodada neste meio de semana.

عضو جديد ينضم لجهاز موسيماني في الأهلي بعد رحيل جونسون

أعلنت وكالة “MT Sports” الجنوب إفريقية والتي تُديرها مويرا زوجة بيتسو موسيماني، المدير الفني للنادي الأهلي، انضمام عضو جديد للجهاز الفني للمارد الأحمر.

طالع.. مران الأهلي | انتظام محمد شريف.. والظهور الأول لمحلل الأداء الجديد

موسيماني في الجهاز الفني بالنادي الأهلي، لديه أكثر من مدرب من جنوب إفريقيا، ولكن مع نهاية موسم 2020/2021، غادر كافين جونسون ويوشا سعيد نادي القرن الإفريقي.

ولملء الفراغ الذي تركه يوشا سعيد، استقطب موسيماني محلل أداء فريق أورلاندو بايرتس كايل سولومون.

وكتبت الوكالة عبر حسابها الرسمي بموقع التواصل الاجتماعي “تويتر”: “نحن فخورون بالإعلان عن انضمام كايل سولومون إلى عائلتنا”.

وأضافت : “إنه محلل أداء بارع وكان حتى وقت قريب مع أورلاندو بايرتس، دعا كايل الآن الأهلي إلى موطنه الجديد، مرحبًا بك كايل، نتطلع إلى العمل معك”.

The best Fantasy Premier League forward picks

When it comes to Fantasy Premier League, you forward options are often the most important decisions to make before the start of each new season – and this one proves no different to the rest.

There is an abundance of strikers and wingers to choose from now, with plenty of forwards last season heading into double figures for their goalscoring tallies. This new season has seen plenty of new additions from new signings at the big clubs, all the way to the new players coming through from the clubs promoted from the Championship.

No matter what, you can always rely on your go-to’s from each season, as well as finding room for those hidden gems and cheaper players to help fill out your squad whilst making sure you build the best starting XI and bench possible.

With that being said, we’re going to take a look at four options up top that could be a make or break for your FPL team, ranging from all prices at any club in the league.

Aleksandar Mitrovic – £6.0m

The Serbian international is back in the Premier League with Fulham after their prometon via the Playoff final against Brentford. Last season in the Championship, Mitrović managed 26 goals in 41 appearances for the Cottagers – and in his last season in the Premier League, he still scored 11 goals for the club despite their relegation in the 2018/19 season.

The 25-year-old will currently cost you just £6.0m, a great price for a striker of his ability and proficiency, and has only been selected by 25.7% of users. Along with an ICT index rank of 512 of 521, Mitrović should be in everyone’s starting XI this season.

Anthony Martial – £9.0m

Last season saw the Frenchman enjoy his best goalscoring season for Manchester United yet, managing 17 goals in 33 appearances. During that time, he picked up a total of 200 points and certainly struck up a great partnership with Marcus Rashford both before and after the Englishman’s injury.

This season has only seen 13.8% of user select Martial, likely due to his £9.0m price tag – but don’t let that scare you off. Now that the 24-year-old has found his feet in a Red Devils shirt, I can’t see that slowing down now, and he would be a great option in your starting XI if you give him the chance.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin – £7.2m

Everton’s No.9 has certainly shown what he is about in the Premier League last campaign.

The 23-year-old scored 13 goals for the Toffees last season, amassing 126 points by the end of the year, and I don’t see that being the end of the Englishman’s goalscoring form. This season has seen Carlo Ancelotti sign three new midfielders in Allan, Abdoulaye Doucoure, and James Rodriguez, with the latter being the most important for Calvert-Lewin.

Rodriguez will bring a new attacking dimension for Everton, and I can see Calvert-Lewin benefitting greatly from this. This season the striker will only cost you £7.2m and has only been selected by 24% of users.

Neal Maupay – £6.5m

The French striker has been something of a revelation for Brighton. Since 2016, Glenn Murray was a fantastic goal scorer for the Seagulls, but the 2018/19 season was far from Murray’s brilliance – and this led to the now 36-year-old being side-lined due to injuries and his age.

In steps Neal Maupay, and suddenly Brighton have themselves a real goalscoring striker in their hands. Last season was Maupay’s first for the club, and the 24-year-old managed 10 goals in 37 appearances, totaling 131 points for the campaign.

Maupay can currently be picked up for just £6.5m. Only 2.1% of users have selected him, meaning he has certainly gone under the radar.
