| American broadcaster NBC create funny advert involving fake Tottenham coach Posted: 04 Aug 2013 06:58 AM PDT American broadcaster NBC has won the rights to show live Premier League football on its network from this season onwards, and they have created a rather wonderful advert to underline their product. It features comedian Jason Sudeikis, who plays Ted Lasso, a ‘soccer’ coach who takes over at Tottenham and is tasked with training the [...] |
| Fulham closing in on deal for QPR playmaker Adel Taarabt Posted: 04 Aug 2013 06:53 AM PDT Adel Taarabt has the reputation of being rather lazy, so it is reasonably logical that when he does leave QPR he wouldn’t be bothered to journey far. If the bookmakers are correct then the Moroccan won’t even leave West London, with the odds slashed on him signing for Fulham. In fairness, it is a transfer [...] |
| Video: Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler almost scores in Steven Gerrard’s testimonial Posted: 04 Aug 2013 02:31 AM PDT Robbie Fowler almost marked his return to action in a Liverpool shirt with a goal in front of the Kop. The man known as God at Anfield combined with Steven Gerrard in the closing stages of Gerrard’s testimonial match against Olympiacos. A few pounds above his fighting weight, Fowler couldn’t quite get on the end [...] |
| Chelsea preparing £40m bid for Man Utd star Wayne Rooney Posted: 04 Aug 2013 02:27 AM PDT Chelsea are set to make a £40m bid for Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney. United rejected a £30m bid from the Blues earlier this summer, but Jose Mourinho’s side are expected to return with their improved offer later this week, the Daily Mail reports. Rooney has missed all United’s pre-season matches so far with a [...] |
| Man Utd line-up Bastian Schweinsteiger as Fabregas alternative Posted: 04 Aug 2013 02:15 AM PDT Manchester United have made Bayern Munich star Bastian Schweinsteiger their back-up option if a third and final bid for Barcelona’s Cesc Fabregas fails this week. United will bid £35m plus £5m in add-ons for Fabregas, with Schweinsteiger waiting in the wings if Barca refuse to do business, the Sunday Mirror reports. David Moyes’ side will [...] |
| Video: Belgian match interrupted by water sprinklers Posted: 04 Aug 2013 02:01 AM PDT Genk’s match against Oud-Heverlee Leuven last night was briefly held up when a couple of water sprinklers came on during the game. Play had to be stopped while groundsmen got the unruly sprinklers under control although, coming late in the game, a couple of players took the opportunity to give themselves a bit of a [...] |
| Posted: 04 Aug 2013 01:56 AM PDT Arsenal came from 2-0 down to salvage a 2-2 draw with Rafa Benitez’s Napoli in the Emirates Cup. Lorenzo Insigne and Goran Pandev put the Italian side into the lead. But an Olivier Giroud overhead kick and a Laurent Koscielny goal ensured the match ended in a draw. |
| Spurs boss Andre Villas Boas says Gareth Bale transfer is NOT imminent Posted: 04 Aug 2013 01:53 AM PDT Tottenham manager Andre Villas Boas has denied reports that Gareth Bale is on the verge of signing for Real Madrid. But he admitted the two clubs are in discussions about a possible transfer and hit out at Real counterpart Carlo Ancelotti for making that information public. He said: “I think the rumours that anything is [...] |
| Posted: 04 Aug 2013 01:47 AM PDT Spurs took a right old thrashing – a Harry Kaning, if you will – in their pre-season friendly at Monaco. And the scoreline ended up being that most painful of results for Tottenham fans: 5-2. Andrea Raggi scored the only goal of the first-half for the hosts, but strikes from Lucas Ocampos and Radamel Falcao [...] |
| Tottenham’s Clint Dempsey signs for Seattle Sounders Posted: 04 Aug 2013 01:39 AM PDT Clint Dempsey has left Spurs to return to the MLS with Seattle Sounders. The USA international has gone back to his homeland in a deal believed to be roughly the same as the £6m Spurs paid to sign him from Tottenham 12 months ago. The 30-year-old said: “I am very excited about coming back to [...] |
