Fiorentina eye up Bielsa appointment

Fiorentina are reportedly eyeing up a move for Marcelo Bielsa after having doubts over the appointment of Vincenzo Italiano.

The Lowdown: Bielsa irreplaceable at Leeds

The Argentine has been a wonderful manager for Leeds United, overseeing their return to the Premier League and being loved by supporters.

Bielsa has arguably been one of the most important figures in the club’s history, and while the thought of him leaving is a grim one, the hope is that he will sign a new contract imminently (BBC).

The Latest: Fiorentina linked snapping up Argentine

According to Rai [via Sport Witness], Fiorentina are interested in bringing Bielsa to the club, with Rafa Benitez also considered an option.

Both are considered possible strong alternatives to Italiano, partly due to being bigger names.

 The Verdict: No reason to worry too much

While any report linking Bielsa with an exit is a worrying one for Leeds, it would be a huge surprise if he departed Elland Road this summer.

The 65-year-old’s contract may be on the cusp of expiring, but he has shown no desire to leave the Whites and should agree a new contract before the end of this month.

His standing in the game means he is always going to interest other clubs – Jurgen Klopp has described him as ‘incredible’ – but Leeds fans should have at least one more year of Bielsa to look forward to.

Antes do Dérbi, Corinthians observa desgaste e pode poupar contra Audax

MatériaMais Notícias

O desgaste físico da maratona de jogos por Campeonato Paulista e Copa do Brasil cobrou seu preço no Corinthians e pode fazer o técnico Fabio Carille poupar três jogadores que apresentam elevado risco de lesão nas avaliações médicas dos últimos dias para a partida deste sábado, contra o Osasco Audax: Moisés, Fellipe Bastos e Jô. Além do trio, que é dúvida, o Timão também não conta com os lesionados Giovanni Augusto, Marquinhos Gabriel e Marlone, que realizaram somente trabalhos internos nesta sexta-feira, assim como os que estão lesionados há mais tempo – Walter, Matheus Vidotto e Danilo, ainda fora de ação.

Com nove baixas em seu elenco de 40 jogadores, Carille montou a seguinte formação para enfrentar o Audax neste sábado, às 17h, em Osasco: Cássio; Fagner, Balbuena, Pablo e Guilherme Arana; Gabriel; Romero, Camacho, Rodriguinho e Léo Jabá; Kazim. São quatro mudanças em relação ao time que venceu o Novorizontino por 1 a 0 na última quarta-feira. Porém, a escalação será confirmada somente horas antes da partida.

-Não gosto de fazer isso, pelo pouco tempo de trabalho gosto de confirmar a equipe, mas não está dando tempo. Alguns jogadores reclamaram de cansaço, por isso que treinei outra equipe. Mas vou definir amanhã (sábado). A única certeza é a volta do Arana, que era o reserva imediato do Uendel e só não começou porque estava na Seleção Brasileira – disse o técnico.

Carille comandou um treino tático fechado nesta sexta-feira – geralmente, os trabalhos são vetados apenas para filmagens, mas desta vez não pode ser nem sequer observado. De longe, só foi possível notar trabalhos de bola parada e transições ofensivas. Já os reservas, em outro campo, foram divididos da seguinte maneira:Mantuan, Pedro Henrique, Léo Santos, Cristian, Maycon, Pedrinho, Luidy e Guilherme num time;Léo Príncipe, Vilson, Marciel, Ameixa, Paulo Roberto, Rodrigo Figueiredo, Bruno Paulo e Mendoza no outro.

Enquanto Carille e Cuca trabalharam os titulares, Osmar Loss esteve com os reservas. Além dos 16 jogadores já citados, o meia Jadson também atuou neste treinamento, como curinga, servindo às duas equipes. O novo camisa 77 está treinando há apenas dez dias e demonstrou não estar no ritmo ideal. Em contrapartida, outros jogadores ganharam elogios do auxiliar durante a movimentação, como Luidy, Mantuan, Rodrigo Figueiredo e Mendoza.

Loss também aprimorou jogadas de contra-ataque, com tabelas rápidas, espaço curto e movimentação para afastar marcação e atacar com mais jogadores. Além do trabalho técnico dos reservas e do tático dos titulares, também houve um treino físico comandado pelo preparador Walmir Cruz.

'Defesa fechada' em mata-matas é arma do São Paulo na Copa do BR

MatériaMais Notícias

O São Paulo tem sofrido críticas pelo alto número de gols sofridos em 2017, mas um aspecto serve de motivação para a decisão desta quarta-feira às 19h30 contra o PSTC-PR, pela segunda fase da Copa do Brasil. Todos os gols sofridos da equipe foram no Campeonato Paulista. Nos três jogos eliminatórios que fez no ano, o Tricolor passou sem ser vazado.

A defesa começou o ano como terminou: elogiada. Com Rodrigo Caio de volante, e Maicon ao lado de Breno depois Douglas, o São Paulo não sofreu gols contra River Plate (ARG) e Corinthians e sagrou-se campeão da Florida Cup, torneio de pré-temporada disputado nos Estados Unidos. Ironicamente, nesses jogos a crítica recaiu sobre o ataque, porque também passou em branco. Os dois embates foram 0 a 0 e terminaram decididos nos pênaltis.

Com o começo das competições, a situação se inverteu. Logo na estreia do Campeonato Paulista, o time sofreu 4 a 2 do Osasco Audax, na Arena Barueri. Foi o último jogo que Rodrigo Caio iniciou como volante. Depois, ele retornou à zaga, e a melhora foi rápida. No jogo seguinte, novamente eliminatório, o time venceu o Moto Club-MA por 1 a 0 em São Luis e se classificou para a segunda fase da Copa do Brasil.

Porém, nem a força de Rodrigo Caio na zaga impediu que o São Paulo sofresse. Foram 13 fols sofridos no Paulista, em seis jogos disputados. São mais de dois por partida. Apenas no clássico contra o Santos, na Vila Belmiro, a equipe sofreu um gol só. Nos outros, dois ou mais. Situação preocupante, mas que não deve fazer o técnico Rogério Ceni mudar o estilo ofensivo do time. A ordem é equilibrar.

– Com certeza, não (mudará o esquema). Temos treinado isso desde a pré-temporada. Marcar pressão, toque de bola. Não vamos mudar nada. Vamos entrar com a mesma determinação, para buscar essa classificação – avaliou o atacante Luiz Araújo.

O São Paulo sofre, mas faz muitos gols. E contará com reforços importantes para concluir a missão de vencer e, assim matar o jogo no tempo normal sem a necessidade de pênaltis, em caso de empate. Cícero, após cumprir suspensão, Cueva e Pratto, poupados no último jogo, retornam. Foram 17 gols marcados no ano, 14 oriundos de jogadores de ataque – Thiago Mendes (2) e Rodrigo Caio são exceções.

É assim, louco para atacar e disposto a defender, que o São Paulo tentará manter vivo o sonho do título inédito.

Sobers includes Lara in his list of all-time greats

“There is a hell of a difference between good and great cricketers

Special Correspondent02-May-2002″There is a hell of a difference between good and great cricketers. If I have to name the great cricketers of all time, the list will be limited to very few. And I must add that, if Brian (Lara) continues to play the way he is playing now, he will definitely be there,” said Sir Garfield Sobers. He was speaking at a function to have a road – Sir Garry Drive – named after him.Although he did not specify all the names, Ian Chappell was mentioned. “Great players are those who can stay calm even during the toughest hours. Take the case of Ian Chappell. When he was made captain of the Australian side, Australia was not the best in the world. But under his able leadership, Australia became a champion side. He was truly an indomitable cricketer,” said Sobers.”Every generation has three distinct type of cricketers – good, better and great. But, as I said, there can only be a few who can feature in the all-time great list. In my list, I can include a maximum of three to four cricketers only.”Sobers’ standards are high; after all, he was the one who thought that there can never be a good ball to a great batsman. He still believes that a great batsman always uses his bat more than his pads to dominate the bowling. To illustrate his point, Sobers pointed to former England captain Ted Dexter, also present at the ceremony, and said, “He was a batsman of that class. I’ve always seen him to prefer to use his bat to counter quality spin bowling.”Sir Everton Weeks and Sir Clyde Walcott were also at the function, prompting Sobers to recall, “I still remember that Sir Everton presented me with a bat when I was not a regular with the Barbados team. I had the opportunity to bowl against the three Ws, and each of them inspired me to play well. That was really boosting.”A documentary titled “Down Memory Lane,” directed by elder brother George Sobers, was screened at the occasion. Sobers’ younger brother, Gerald, was present, and the great all-rounder maintained that Gerald didn’t translate his potential into success. “He should have played more in the international arena. We were called the ‘Chinese Brothers.’ At 15, we were playing against each other in a match when I played for the Country XI and he was in the City XI. I bowled four-five deliveries at him. Later, our friends were complaining that I should have bowled at least one half-volley to him, which I didn’t.”Sobers was naturally overjoyed, but at the same time, he acutely felt his mother’s absence. “Last year I lost her. It would have surely been great if she was here. But she is in heaven now and cannot be present at a function where her son is felicitated.”

ExWHUemployee backs big Declan Rice update

Writing on Twitter, reliable club insider ExWHUemployee has backed reports of a significant contract update involving West Ham United star Declan Rice.

The Lowdown: Rice rejects new deal offers…

As reported by reliable outlets like the Guardian and the Evening Standard, Hammers star Rice is now thought to have turned down new contract offers as the club attempt to turn off summer suitors.

Indeed, despite West Ham’s eagerness to keep hold of the 22-year-old, who is currently shining at Euro 2020, the midfielder has apparently snubbed two improved deal proposals.

It is thought that he is not making a ‘concerted’ effort to leave but still wants to be informed of any incoming bids, with Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City all monitoring his situation.

The Latest: ExWHUemployee backs these claims…

Writing on Twitter, club insider ExWHUemployee has now backed these reports with a six-word claim.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/west-ham-latest-2/” title=”West Ham latest!” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

Reinforcing rumours that the player has indeed snubbed attempts by West Ham to tie down their star, Ex simply stated that ‘the information about Rice is true’.

Expanding on this development, Ex says that the offers were simply not befitting of Rice’s ability and the club will have to table far improved terms to secure his future.

Allegedly, the salary proposals were even below what Andriy Yarmolenko is currently earning at the club (£115,000-per-week, spotrac).

The Verdict: Big blow…

This could come as a Hammer blow to the club as they aim to keep their star man and ward off potential suitors, but a silver lining could be that Rice doesn’t seem to be pushing to leave.

ExWHUemployee’s update indicates that West Ham could potentially tie him down by coming back with a much improved offer, but the club may have to make this a top priority given his array of suitors.

As West Ham gear up for a busy campaign including the Europa League group stages, the last thing they will want is to lose their talisman.

وأتم: “الآن هو أحد أفضل اللاعبين في العالم ويُحافظ على تواضعه الكبير، وأعتقد أن هذه هي قوته، وفي رأيي سيكون الفائز بالكرة الذهبية”.

Vladimir Hernández é registado no BID e pode estrear pelo Santos

MatériaMais Notícias

Após mais de um mês treinando sem poder jogar, o atacante Vladimir Hernández enfim foi registado pelo Santos no Boletim Informativo Diário da CBF, nesta terça-feira. O atacante viajou com a delegação para o Peru e pode estrear em uma partida oficial na quinta-feira, na estreia da Libertadores, contra o Sporting Cristal.

Hernández ficou treinando por mais de um mês sem poder atuar por conta do imbróglio do Peixe com o Junior Barranquilla, da Colômbia. O ex-clube de Vladimir exigia do Peixe garantias bancárias, as quais o Alvinegro só conseguiu nesta semana.

-Muito feliz de estar com a equipe. Já estou pensando em fazer tudo certo. Quero jogar. Estou treinando da melhor maneira e quero ajudar. Vai ser uma partida difícil e será importante ganhar no Peru – disse o camisa 16 à Rádio Santos.

Ao longo da semana, Dorival Júnior esboçou algumas alterações com a entrada de Hernández no lugar de Copete no segundo tempo.

A única apresentação do colombiano de 28 anos foi no amistoso com o Kenitra, no dia 28 de janeiro, em que fez um gol de bicicleta. Seu vínculo com o Santos é válido por quatro anos.

Spurs complete report on Cantwell

An update has emerged on Norwich City midfielder Todd Cantwell, regarding Tottenham’s interest in his services…

What’s the talk?

According to Dean Jones of EuroSport, Tottenham have put together a scouting report on Norwich City attacking midfielder Todd Cantwell. Fabio Paratici is looking to improve Nuno Santo’s squad this summer and the Englishman is one of a number of midfielders the club are considering – along with Franck Kessie, Miralem Pjanic and Marcel Sabitzer.

Fans would love it

Daniel Levy must sanction a swoop for Cantwell this summer to bolster Santo’s squad. If there is a chance that he could be available in the coming weeks then Spurs must act and attempt to swoop him up as he could be an excellent addition to add depth in the attacking areas.

Cantwell has 12 months left on his contract at Carrow Road, although Norwich do have an option to extend it by a further year. This means that Spurs could, potentially, convince the Canaries to part ways with Cantwell in order to avoid his value depreciating throughout the course of next season. If Norwich are relegated from the Premier League and then have Cantwell in limbo with Championship football on the horizon and just a year left on his deal, then that could be a real cause for concern.

Therefore, the opportunity could be there for Tottenham to sign him and it could be a smart piece of business by the club. The 23-year-old is a talented young player who could have potential to improve and develop into a key player for Santo over the course of a number of years, which fans could enjoy watching.

Former Norwich and West Ham striker Dean Ashton lauded him as a “wonderful” player earlier this year and highlighted his ability to take opponents on with the ball at his feet.

He said:

“When I first saw him I said to Darren Huckerby, ‘how is that lad not training with the first-team?’. He was incredible. The way he was drifting past players. His speed of thought and his awareness. He’s just a wonderful player.”

The £19.8m-rated maestro already has experience in the Premier League. He scored six and assisted two goals in 30 starts in the 2019/20 season for Norwich, before scoring six and assisting six in 30 Championship stars as he averaged an excellent WhoScored rating of 7.13.

Steven Bergwijn, Erik Lamela, Carlos Vinicius and Lucas Moura managed just six goals in the league between them for Spurs last season. This suggests that Cantwell could be an upgrade on Santo’s existing options behind his starting group of forwards; Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son.

Therefore, Levy must work hard to land the up-and-coming midfielder this summer as fans would love to see a goalscoring wide man to complement Kane and Son, as they were missing that with the aforementioned flops last term.
