| Video: Arsenal flop Andre Santos puts a penalty into orbit Posted: 30 Apr 2013 06:13 AM PDT Arsenal fans were pleased to see the back of Andre Santos when he joined Brazilian side Gremio on loan. But it doesn’t look like his performances have improved since his return to his homeland. He missed the decisive penalty in a 5-4 shootout defeat to Juventude in the Campeonato Gaúcho semi-final. And boy, did he [...] |
| Victor Valdes claims he is ‘too muscly’ to be Barcelona captain Posted: 30 Apr 2013 04:55 AM PDT It does sound rather like a lame excuse, but Victor Valdes is sticking to it. With the goalkeeper expected to leave Barcelona this summer after failing to sign a new deal, Valdes received criticism from fans after appearing to snub the chance to captain his side. With Xavi leaving the field, Valdes was the next [...] |
| Rapid Vienna fans build wall to stop underperforming staff entering club Posted: 30 Apr 2013 04:48 AM PDT Fans of clubs are often accused of lying down and taking it when shat on by their respective clubs. It’s all very well moaning about ticket prices, but if you keep going to matches then nothing will change. Fans of Rapid Vienna in Austria are the folks to follow if you want an example to [...] |
| Russian linesman banned for life for punching and kicking youth player Posted: 30 Apr 2013 04:45 AM PDT We’re all for officials getting more protection from players, but there is little excuse for anyone taking things into their own hands. And this linesman definitely took things into his own hands. The video above shows Russian linesman Musa Kadyrov, who has been banned for life, punching and kicking a player in the head during [...] |
| Fail – Mansfield Town’s open-top bus celebrations fail to inspire Posted: 30 Apr 2013 04:41 AM PDT The problem with an open-top bus parade is that it really does rely on people turning up to come and watch. Whilst that is never really a problem for clubs such as Chelsea and a Manchester City, for Blue Square Premier champions Mansfield Town endured a slightly more low-key affair. This image did the rounds [...] |
| Tottenham confident of pipping Liverpool to Blackpool’s Tom Ince Posted: 30 Apr 2013 01:48 AM PDT Spurs are hopeful of beating Liverpool to the £6.5 million signing of Blackpool winger Tom Ince, according to the Mirror. Chief executive Daniel Levy is keen to do business with the Seasiders as soon as possible and whisk the England under-21 international away from his dad, Bloomfield Road boss Paul, before their rivals start to [...] |
| Arsenal prepare £10m for Southampton star Posted: 30 Apr 2013 01:03 AM PDT Arsenal will launch a £10 million bid for Southampton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin this summer. The Sun reports that Arsene Wenger has been keeping a close eye on his compatriot since the player joined Saints for £1.2million from Strasbourg in 2008. The 23-year-old signed a new contract at St Mary’s in February. Wenger reportedly sees Schneiderlin [...] |
| GIF It: Ron Vlaar’s 30-yard strike (Aston Villa 6-1 Sunderland) Posted: 30 Apr 2013 12:45 AM PDT Aston Villa fans might have known that last night’s match against Sunderland was going to be a good night from the moment defender Ron Vlaar stepped into midfield and drove the ball into the net from 30-yards. And the skipper’s stunning strike ultimately set Paul Lambert’s side on the way to a 6-1 thrashing of [...] |
| Video: Sunderland boss Paolo Di Canio inadvertently insults Gary Neville Posted: 30 Apr 2013 12:36 AM PDT Most people will see this as an unfortunate bit of pronunciation from Sunderland manager Paolo Di Canio; Liverpool fans will probably see it as an accurate description. The Black Cats boss’ post-match interview following last night’s 6-1 spanking at Aston Villa was overshadowed by the Italian bending his use of his second language to breaking [...] |
| Liverpool’s Jamie Carragher confirms his next move Posted: 30 Apr 2013 12:28 AM PDT Liverpool stalwart Jamie Carragher will join Sky Sports from the start of next season. The veteran defender had previously announced that he would retire at the end of the current campaign, although the rumour mill had suggested he was thinking of performing a U-turn and staying on for one more season. But Sky has now [...] |
