جاري نيفيل: مسرح الأحلام تحول للا شيء.. ويهاجم لاعب مانشستر يونايتد بضراوة

انتقد مدافع مانشستر يونايتد الأسبق، جاري نيفيل، أداء اللاعبين الحاليين بالفريق الأول بعد الخسارة بثلاثية نظيفة أمام نيوكاسل يونايتد في كأس الرابطة الإنجليزية.

وظهر مانشستر يونايتد بمستوى باهت خلال مباراة الأمس، مما يوضح مدى سوء حالة لاعبيه هذا الموسم بعد نتائج سلبية في الدوري الإنجليزي.

وعبر نيفيل عن استياءه من الأداء الفني في تصريحات لشبكة “سكاي سبورتس”، وقال: “الليلة الماضية شاهدنا مسرح الأحلام يتحول إلى لا شيء”.

وتابع: “كل مشجع لنادي مانشستر يونايتد يشعر بالملل والانزعاج، مما قدمه هؤلاء اللاعبون، الجميع كان في حالة صدمة، الأداء كان سيئًا والمدرب يعاني”.

وأضاف: “لقد رأينا ذلك من قبل، نعرف كيف سينتهي وقد سئمنا”.

وانتقل نيفيل لانتقاد المهاجم، أنتوني مارسيال، بعد أداءه غير الجيد، وقال: “عندما ترى أرقامه وكم كلف خزائن النادي لقد دفعوا 50 مليون جنيه إسترليني من أجله”.

وتابع: “لقد سجل 89 هدفًا فقط في تسع سنوات، لا أعرف كيف ذلك، اخرجوه من النادي، لا أعتقد أننا كمحللين نتعامل بقسوة شديدة، لا أعتقد أننا قساة بما فيه الكفاية”.

واستمر: “قلت من قبل إن هويلوند لو كان زميله آندي كول أو دوايت يورك أو إيريك كانتونا، لأصبح الضغط بعيدًا عنه ولعب بحرية”.

وأتم: “لكنه جاء إلى مانشستر يونايتد، من أجل أن يكون المهاجم الأساسي لأننا لا نشعر بذلك مع مارسيال رغم وجوده منذ فترة طويلة”.

Fortaleza recebeu proposta de até R$ 800 mil para vender mando de campo contra o Palmeiras

MatériaMais Notícias

Marcelo Paz, presidente do Fortaleza, fez questão de revelar uma importante informação na última quarta-feira (11) em vídeo publicado na rede social oficial do clube cearense.

Segundo o dirigente, houve uma proposta para que o Leão do Pici tivesse a oportunidade de lucrar até R$ 800 mil reais no confronto diante do Palmeiras programado para o próximo dia 22 de setembro que marcará o início do segundo turno no Brasileirão.

Para isso, bastava aceitarem a condição de venda de mando de campo, possibilidade negada pelo cartola se baseando na relação com o torcedor e a maior proximidade entre atletas e o fã do Tricolor de Aço nas arquibancadas da Arena Castelão:

-Recebemos uma proposta para que o jogo Fortaleza x Palmeiras fosse feito fora do nosso Estado. Isso nos garantiria entre R$ 700 mil e R$ 800 mil líquidos na mão. E nós recusamos porque confiamos na torcida, temos um compromisso com o sócio-torcedor e em nenhum momento iremos vender mando de campo porque o Fortaleza tem que estar perto da sua torcida.

Nesse momento, enquanto a equipe paulista é a terceira colocada com 36 unidades, o Fortaleza é o 13° com 21.

Todavia, esse cenário pode se modificar pelo simples fato de que, antes do encontro citado, ambos ainda jogam contra o Cruzeiro, no caso do Palmeiras, e o Bahia em relação aos comandados de Zé Ricardo nesse fim de semana.

Reshuffled South Africa remain favourites

South Africa have secured three of the more comprehensive victories you will see and West Indies look as though they’d rather be doing anything else than playing cricket

West Indies desperate to save face

Big PictureThis series has not been a contest so far. South Africa have secured three of the more comprehensive victories you will see and West Indies look as though they’d rather be doing anything else than playing cricket. Even the usual effervescent Darren Sammy, who was left out of the third match, has struggled to raise many smiles.Being hammered for a 31-ball hundred in Johannesburg was a freak performance by a freak cricketer; the way West Indies played in East London was more disheartening to see. There appeared little will to fight it out with the bat, as witnessed by the shots of Marlon Samuels and Andre Russell, and insipidity in the field.South Africa, though, have played impressive cricket but despite AB de Villiers’ assertion that no wins are easy they must surely hope to be tested a little more ahead of the World Cup. The middle order needs some time at the crease and there is set to be some shuffling of the line-up to ensure the likes of David Miller and JP Duminy can benefit.They will not be fielding a first-choice side with both Dale Steyn and Hashim Amla rested with further rotation likely in the bowling attack. That could create an opportunity for West Indies, but only if they improve immensely from the first three matches. At the moment, a South African second team would beat them.Form guide(last five matches, most recent first)South AfricaWWWLL
West Indies LLLLLIn the spotlightThis match should give us a chance to look at South Africa’s squad bowlers. There is a chance that the trio of Wayne Parnell, Kyle Abbott and Aaron Phangiso could all play. The home side appear pretty set on their first-choice attack, but there has to be the expectation that an injury will strike at some stage during the World Cup so they all need to ready at a moment’s notice. Also, one of questions over South Africa’s attack, away from whether they need a specialist fifth bowler, is the death bowling – barely tested in this series – and Parnell and Abbott are other options for that role.It is slim pickings for West Indies, but Jonathan Carter has actually shown a hint of fight since coming into the middle order. Given what is happening above him in the order, it may not be a bad idea to elevate him. Denesh Ramdin certainly seems a place too high at No. 5 while Narsingh Deonarine is not in the World Cup squad.Teams newsIt will be a different-looking South Africa team. Amla and Steyn are already confirmed as not being there for this match, while AB de Villiers will hand the keeping gloves to Morne van Wyk, who is not in the World Cup squad but is high on the reserve list should injuries occur although Quinton de Kock is well on track to be fit.South Africa (possible) 1 Rilee Rossouw, 2 Morne van Wyk (wk), 3 Faf du Plessis, 4 AB de Villiers (capt), 5 David Miller, 6 JP Duminy, 7 Farhaan Behardien, 8 Wayne Parnell, 9 Kyle Abbott, 10 Morne Morkel, 11 Imran TahirIt has reached the stage where you suspect changes for West Indies will not make much of a difference and Jason Holder suggested that the same team heavily beaten in East London may get another chance.West Indies 1 Dwayne Smith, 2 Chris Gayle, 3 Narsingh Deonarine, 4 Marlon Samuels, 5 Denesh Ramdin (wk), 6 Jonathan Carter, 7 Andre Russell, 8 Carlos Brathwaite, 9 Jason Holder (capt), 10 Jerome Taylor, 11 Sulieman BennPitch and conditionsIt is often one of the slower surfaces in South Africa – West Indies benefited from this in the Test – although so was East London and that did not help the visitors. It is expected to be quite a humid day, so there could be some swing depending on the direction of the breeze (or wind). No rain is forecast, which after the damp Test is a relief.Stats and trivia The teams have met four times in ODIs at this ground and South Africa have won them all Faf du Plessis needs 57 runs to reach 2000 in ODIs Jerome Taylor’s economy rate of 7.10 is the highest for a West Indies bowler who has bowled at least 20 overs in a seriesQuotes”You take what you get, you play the situation you’re confronted with and you prepare accordingly. That’s all you can do. Some games you’re 20 for 4, sometimes not. You’ve got to prepare as best as possible to give your team the best chance to win.”
“We felt like we needed to sit and discuss some things and get the minds right for the next two games.”

كتب أحد المشجعين ردًا على نتيجة المباراة: أستطيع أن أقول إن المركز 14 في الدوري الفرنسي قد تغلب للتو على ليفربول بقيادة محمد صلاح صاحب المركز الثالث في الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز.

ومع ذلك، وفقًا لموقع فوتيكس، لا يوجد مستوى في الدوري الأول

وتعجب أحد المشجعين بعدم البدء بمحمد صلاح قائلاً: لم تعجبني الطريقة التي يدير بها كلوب الفريق من خلال إراحة المدربين ضد فرق مثل لوتون أو تولوز هذا المساء، لكن يجب أن يتبع ذلك عمق مقاعد البدلاء، وإلا فليبدأ محمد صلاح.

وقال أحد المشجعين: حسنًا، من الجيد التغلب على محمد صلاح ويورغن كلوب ولكن هل رأيت ختم زوريكو على لوكاس بواديس.

 

 

Apenas com reservas, Corinthians se reapresenta após derrota na Sula

MatériaMais Notícias

O Corinthians voltou aos treinos após a derrota, por 2 a 0, para o Independiente Del Valle pelo jogo de ida da semifinal da Copa Sul-Americana. Na tarde desta quinta, apenas os reservas vieram a campo no CT Joaquim Grava. Os jogadores que atuaram contra a equipe equatoriana ficaram na parte interna do centro de treinamento fazendo exercícios regenerativos.

Apesar da dor de cabeça por conta do revés em casa e da delicada situação no torneio continental, o Corinthians não tem muito tempo para lamentar. Afinal, no sábado, a equipe recebe o Bahia pela 20ª rodada do Campeonato Brasileiro. Por conta disso, o técnico Fábio Carille já iniciou os preparativos para o duelo do fim de semana.

Como não tinha o elenco completo em campo, a comissão técnica não definiu a formação titular. Os reservas foram divididos em duas equipes e fizeram uma atividade em campo reduzido. O volante Gabriel e o atacante Clayson – ambos substituídos no intervalo do jogo contra o Del Valle – participaram do treino como curingas.

Willey, Sharp fail in fight against retirement

Peter Willey and George Sharp, the highly respected umpires, have been forced to retire not through failing eyesight or sciatica but as the result of a finding by a judge at a central London employment hearing

Peter Willey and George Sharp, the highly respected umpires, have been forced to retire not through failing eyesight or sciatica but as the result of a finding by a judge at a central London employment hearing. They took the ECB to the tribunal last month on the basis of age discrimination and unfair dismissal, but their manager’s policy of a retirement age of 65 and desire to promote retired cricketers on to the first-class umpiring list was upheld.The ruling, which the ECB said backed up a policy that was “in the interests of inter-generational fairness”, means that the governing body can continue to move on senior umpires in favour of providing a pathway for those coming in to the profession, regardless of capability. Since a 2011 change to employment legislation, employers have had to come up with a justification as to why individuals must retire at 65.Willey and Sharp were supposed to have retired at the end of last season but felt they were fit enough to continue. Both were renowned for their firm discipline and respected accordingly by cricketers.Chris Kelly, the ECB’s umpires manager, said that there was no issue with their standards, fitness or eyesight but wanted them to stand down while they were still at the top of their game “with dignity,” as he told the tribunal. The salient finding by the judge was that if they were to continue, there would be less opportunity on the first-class list for retired players. Prospect, the trade union, will pay the legal costs incurred by the two men.”I have a good run but I am disappointed for umpires in future,” Willey said. “That’s it – I won’t umpire at any level now. I’ll go and watch my son, David, playing for Northamptonshire, I have a grandson to look after and I’ll go on holiday in the summer with my wife for a change.”He and Sharp, his former Northamptonshire colleague who has undertaken a course in scoring in an attempt to remain in the game, will be replaced this season by Paul Baldwin and Russell Evans.There will be concern for Willey’s wellbeing given that he admitted in his witness statement that his family felt he would suffer from depression if he did not stay in the game. Cricket at county and Test level, followed by umpiring, has been his life since he made his first-class debut for Northamptonshire at the age of 16.”We shall do everything we can to support him,” Alan Leighton, Prospect’s national secretary, said. “I am not entirely surprised by the finding and I hope this has not soured our relationship with the ECB. Each side will pay their own legal teams, although it is open for one to do so against the other.”Leighton felt this finding could have a knock-on effect in other sports and professions if the retirement age of 65 is challenged again. “But the bigger issue is that first-class umpires are further up the pyramid than football referees, as there are far fewer of them,” he said. Other umpires who have remained as fit as Willey and Sharp, notably Ray Julian, have requested to be allowed to stay on beyond 65 in the past, but have been turned down. Dickie Bird would doubtless still like to be umpiring today.The ECB said: “We welcome the decision, which recognises that our current retirement policy for umpires is firmly based on sound legal principles and not discriminatory on grounds of age. ECB will continue to implement a retirement age of 65 in the interests of inter-generational fairness and in order to ensure that umpiring remains a viable career option for professional cricketers who are nearing the end of their playing careers. We would also like to thank George Sharp and Peter Willey for their contribution to our first -class game and wish them well in their retirement.”

وأضاف الأوروجواياني: “لم نتمكن من تطبيق الضغط في وسط ملعب جيرونا، عندما كانوا يأخذون الكرة منا يكون الأمر مؤلمًا، وكانوا يعرفون كيف يصلوا إلى مرمانا”.

Keepers Wallace and O'Brien in record day

Mark Wallace and Niall O’Brien both took county records from a stalemate at Grace Road

Press Association15-Apr-2015Glamorgan 513 for 9 dec (Rudolph 111, Bragg 120) and 227 for 7 (Cooke 81) drew with Leicestershire 435 (Eckersley 147, Robson 83, Carter 4-95) and 141 for 3 (Cosgrove 59*)

Mark Wallace only managed eight runs against Leicestershire at Grace Road, but it was enough to bring up a notable statistical achievement as he became the first Glamorgan wicketkeeper to reach 10,000 first-class runs.There was a Leicestershire record, too. When Ollie Freckingham snared Graham Wagg he gave Niall O’Brien his fifth catch of the innings and ninth of the game.As for the match itself, Glamorgan’s Championship game against Leicestershire ended in a draw as they found the bottom club for the past two seasons in resilient frame of mind.Earlier, Chris Cooke continued his impressive early-season form by adding an unbeaten half-century to his first-innings 48 as Glamorgan batted their way towards a position of safety, allowing them to declare on 227 for 7 and setting the hosts a victory target of 306.At 104 for 5, that security was not entirely assured. Colin Ingram hung his bat out at a wide delivery from Ollie Freckingham and edged a catch behind. Soon afterwards, Wallace, also edged a catch to the wicketkeeper, this time off Ben Raine.Glamorgan’s victory hopes were boosted when Dan Redfern was dismissed without a run on theboard, Graham Wagg having him well caught at second slip by Dean Cosker, before Craig Meschede induced first innings centurion Ned Eckersley to edge an outswinger – again to Cosker.Cosker’s left-arm spin did prise out Angus Robson, the opener leaving a ball that just clipped off-stump, but Neil Pinner impressed his new skipper with an unbeaten 42 before Cosgrove and Rudolph shook hands with a maximum of 12 overs remaining.Cosgrove said: `”Every time we got challenged we fought back, we came up with the goods, and I couldn’t have asked more. We’re going to be aggressive this year and take games on, but from none for two chasing 300 in 50 overs on a last-day track we just had to bat some time, and we did that really well.`”If they’d set us 280 it would have been a reasonable chase – but that’s the way they played all game, a little bit negative.”Glamorgan’s head coach Toby Radford said: “I think over the four days we played some excellent cricket – to get 500 in the first innings was great with two centurions in Jacques Rudolph and Will Bragg. With three wickets down early in their second innings, we thought we had a real sniff.”
