da pinup bet： It has been a very poor start to the season for Manchester United and Erik ten Hag, and it appears they could already be putting plans in place for January, as the Red Devils eye a deal for a new defender, according to a new report.

Manchester United resemble a sinking ship under Erik ten Hag’s stewardship.

da esoccer bet： Defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday afternoon piled even more misery on to Ten Hag and raised even more doubts about his future at the club, with a testing week ahead with trips to Porto and Aston Villa to come. The United hierarchy will be looking for an instant turn of results, but it appears that Dan Ashworth and Jason Wilcox already have their eye on what business they would like to conclude in January.

The Red Devils have been linked with a move for Nico Williams in 2025, with INEOS reportedly willing to throw everything at the deal to get it completed as they try to beat Barcelona to his signature. Meanwhile, as well as looking at Williams, United are also keeping an eye on Ruben van Bommel, following his rise through at AZ Alkmaar. The Dutchman is the son of PSV and Champions League legend Mark van Bommel, who also played for Bayern Munich, AC Milan, and Barcelona.

While United keep their options open for attacking additions in 2025, the Red Devils also appear to be looking to reinforce their defence, despite adding Leny Yoro and Matthijs de Ligt in the summer.

Man Utd prepare £62m+ bid for new centre-back

According to a report from Spain, Manchester United are looking to beat Liverpool to the signing of Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace. The defender was hot property during the summer transfer window with Newcastle United chasing his signature, but he remains a Palace player.

This report states that Man Utd are looking for quick solutions to their defence given their poor start to the campaign and have identified Guehi as a “serious target”. There is apparently talk of a €75m (over £62m) bid being prepared as a matter of “urgency”, while the report even claims United and Liverpool are “preparing offers that could break the market”.

Guehi, who was labelled as “great” by John Stones at Euro 2024 and a “monster” by Palace reporters for his performances in Germany, was the subject of bids of around £70 million from Newcastle in the summer, so United may well have to up the reported opening offer even further if they truly wish to get a deal done.

Guehi, who is said to be on a weekly wage of £50,000, has been at Crystal Palace since 2021, when he joined the club from fellow London side Chelsea. The defender’s importance at Selhurst Park has grown and grown in the last few seasons, and during the summer he was recognised on the international stage as he stepped up for England and replaced the injured Harry Maguire.

He could be seen as a replacement for Maguire once again, as the defender is in the final year of his contract at Old Trafford, fighting Lisandro Martinez for the chance to be the permanent starter alongside De Ligt.

Australia are expected to hand a T20I cap to Tim David, while Pant has something to prove for India

Sruthi Ravindranath19-Sep-20223:48

Jaffer backs Karthik over Pant in the India XI

Big Picture
Post the 2021 T20 World Cup, India have played a total of 29 T20Is heading into this series. Australia, meanwhile, have played just nine. Irrespective of their prep, Australia might turn up in their usual confident manner at the T20 World Cup – but this time they’ll have to defend the title in their backyard. And they have quite a bit to figure out compared to their better-prepped opponents.In the age of packed cricket calendars and schedules, it does seem quite surprising that these two teams haven’t played each other in a T20I since December 2020. India won that away series 2-1, while Australia won the last T20I series they played in India, in February 2019. Also, how can we forget match in Mohali, when Virat Kohli left Australia speechless? Irrespective of the format, the meetings between these two countries have always been high-octane and largely competitive, and this series should be no different, provided Australia can overcome a few selection questions.Related

Smith to bat at No. 3 in India T20Is in Mitch Marsh's absence

Rahul: 'No one is perfect; strike rate is something I am working at'

Their captain Aaron Finch’s recent form seems to be among the biggest of concerns. Steven Smith’s middling strike rate has also raised questions around his place in the XI. And, Australia are without the injured trio of Mitchell Starc, Mitchell Marsh and Marcus Stoinis for this series, while David Warner has been rested. The team playing this series looks quite different from Australia’s first-choice World Cup side. But it does give Australia the space to experiment with the back-ups but they will also want to build a winning momentum. They have five more matches after this series – a two-match series against West Indies and three T20Is against England at home – before the T20 World Cup.It’ll be interesting to see how Tim David, who will be in Australia colours for the first time, fits into the international set-up. Australia are also likely to experiment with Josh Inglis, making him open alongside Finch. Finch said there will be a lot of “mixing and matching” ahead of the World Cup.India, meanwhile, have had some time to figure out what has worked for them and, more importantly, what hasn’t. They’re back home after some travelling, having won bilateral T20I series in Ireland, England and the Caribbean. But it was their most recent prep – at the Asia Cup – that left them with key takeaways.After the Asia Cup Super 4s exit, captain Rohit Sharma said India were “90-95% settled” ahead of the T20 World Cup. Their aggressive approach has largely worked out well. Kohli finally hit form, so his place in the XI is – at least for now – no longer a debate. They are entering the series with the strongest available squad and will be looking to mainly focus on making roles clearer.4:48

Hodge: Australia shouldn’t look back from this point when it comes to Tim David

The return of Jasprit Bumrah and Harshal Patel means Hardik Pandya no longer has to be the third seamer in the side. India will also want to see how they can use the likes of allrounders Axar Patel and Deepak Hooda better. Rohit was clear KL Rahul has his backing as the opener. As for Pant, India will be hoping he comes good in the series. India still have a home series against South Africa to go before the T20 World Cup to further firm up their plans.Form guide
India WLLWW (last five completed matches, most recent first)
Australia LWWWLIn the spotlight
All eyes will be on Tim David, who will be looking to showcase his power-hitting skills, this time in Australia colours. The Singapore-born batter has impressed in various T20 competitions, most recently in the IPL as well, and he’ll be looking to replicate his success on the international stage. His big-hitting skills aside, his ability to take on spinners and quicks alike makes him a must-have in a T20 side. He averages 32.48 with a strike rate of 164.12 in T20s. He is likely to take up the middle-order spot in Stoinis’ absence in this series. But Australia will not be able to accommodate him if both Stoinis and Marsh are fit when the World Cup begins. It’s Smith’s position that appears a bit vulnerable as of now – but he too has the reputation of being the anchor in the XI – so it remains to be seen how Australia fit David into their XI at the World Cup.Rishabh Pant is yet to find his mojo in T20Is•Associated Press

Rishabh Pant has not quite been able to live up to the expectations in the T20 format. In T20Is since 2020, he has averaged just 27.63 and has struck at 129.95 in 32 innings. At the Asia Cup, Pant had to be brought into the XI in place of Dinesh Karthik following an injury to Ravindra Jadeja as India wanted a left-hand batter in the middle. But he could only make scores of 17 and 14 against Sri Lanka and Pakistan respectively in the Super 4s. While having Pant and Karthik in the squad offers them flexibility, it looks like India can currently accommodate only one of the two in the XI. Pant will have to make use of his time in the middle in the upcoming T20Is to get back into form before the T20 World Cup.Team news
Umesh Yadav, who was originally meant to undergo rehab for a quad injury in Bengaluru, has been called into the squad after Mohammed Shami tested positive for Covid-19. But with the return of Bumrah and Harshal, India are unlikely to play Umesh in the XI.India (probable): 1 Rohit Sharma (capt), 2 KL Rahul, 3 Virat Kohli, 4 Suryakumar Yadav, 5 Hardik Pandya, 6 Rishabh Pant/ Dinesh Karthik (wk), 7 Axar Patel, 8 Bhuvneshwar Kumar/ Deepak Chahar, 9 Harshal Patel, 10 Yuzvendra Chahal, 11 Jasprit BumrahWith Marsh absent, Smith will bat at No. 3 against India. David looks set to make his Australia debut in the middle order. Australia are also likely to play Inglis – who has so far played at No. 3 and in the middle order in T20Is – as an opener and push Matthew Wade down the order. Cameron Green, who has been impressive with the ball and the bat, has been brought back into the T20I squad – having played a solitary match in April this year – and is also likely to find a place in the XI.Australia (probable): 1 Aaron Finch (capt), 2 Josh Inglis, 3 Steven Smith, 4 Glenn Maxwell, 5 Matthew Wade (wk), 6 Tim David, 7 Cameron Green, 8 Adam Zampa, 9 Pat Cummins, 10 Josh Hazlewood, 11 Sean Abbott/ Daniel SamsPitch and conditions
It is expected to be partly cloudy and humid in Mohali tomorrow, with a 25% chance of precipitation in the evening. In T20s since 2018, the chasing team has won seven out of 11 matches at the ground. On the eve of the match, Finch said the wicket had “a bit of grass on it”.Stats and trivia

No concerns in seven-wicket victory as visitors hunt down 214 with ease

Paul Edwards28-Jul-2022

A match that had appeared to be nip and tuck on Wednesday evening eventually proved to be neither. On a pitch that was drier and easier for batting than it had been earlier in the week, Hampshire’s batters strolled to their target of 214 to set up a second successive push for the County Championship in September, when their next opponents will be Northamptonshire at the Ageas Bowl.And if James Vince’s side do win their county’s third title in September, they will have conformed to the curious pattern whereby recent champions – Middlesex, Essex, Surrey and Yorkshire themselves – have all recorded victories at North Marine Road. Scarborough has always been the most hospitable of towns but rarely to this extent.Yet there was really no point in this day’s cricket when Yorkshire appeared likely to discomfit their opponents. Runs came easily in the cool morning as Jordan Thompson strayed down the leg side and Ian Holland tucked into a couple of pies. Then Ben Coad bowled too full, a rare error, and Felix Organ gave it the full diapason down the ground. Before we had finished our first coffees of the day, Hampshire had scored 30 runs and the shape of the game looked very different. Matthew Waite replaced Thompson but he went for runs as well. Hampshire’s fifty came up in 45 minutes and Dom Bess was bowling from the Peasholm Park End by noon.Even in late July we are at the stage when cricketers take notice of other teams’ progress. So the only sombre note in Hampshire’s morning came from the Kia Oval where Division One leaders Surrey were beginning what proved to be a serene run-chase against Warwickshire. Meanwhile, Holland and Organ continued to mind their own business, pushing singles and ticking things along “sensibly, steadily” much like the clock in .Holland showed himself to be as adept at the reverse-sweep as Alfred (Scarborough College Class of 22) had been before play started, when one of the youngster’s well-timed efforts clattered into a couple of spectators on the wooden benches high in this amphitheatre. But the ball was soft and no one objects to lads practising cricket in this town.The morning’s only alarm for Hampshire came when Jonny Tattersall missed a stumping when Organ was 37 but the ball had spun sharply out of the rough and down the leg side. Only the martinet Yorkshire coaches like Arthur “Ticker” Mitchell would have laid into the keeper for that one. At lunch, Hampshire were 121 without loss – just as everyone had predicted.The afternoon’s play brought a little comfort for Yorkshire supporters, although they might have seen Hampshire’s loss of three wickets in 5.4 overs as an irritating reminder of what might have been possible had their bowlers shaped themselves earlier. But Coad was playing his first match after four months out with injuries and he will have been encouraged to remove Holland for 71, when a little extra bounce induced an edge to first slip, and then Joe Weatherley, who was leg before wicket for nought. Those dismissals sandwiched the departure of Organ, who hit Bess for a splendid six over long-on, only to pull the next ball, a steaming long-hop, straight to Matthew Revis at deep square leg.The super-optimists at North Marine Road may have thought these wickets a prelude to the sort of fightback in which Steve Patterson’s team has specialised this summer. If so, they were swiftly disabused of this notion by the grace of Vince, whose cover drives off Bess and Patterson were of the highest quality. Hampshire’s skipper even managed to invest a slog-swept six with aesthetic value and he was unbeaten on 43 when the victory was confirmed and the red balls were put away for a month or so.Meanwhile, at The Oval Surrey’s progress towards victory was progressing smoothly and their victory over Warwickshire has extended their lead over Hampshire at the top of the table to 16 points, albeit Vince’s team look to have the easier final three games. And at least we should have yet another September to cherish through the autumn

da supremo： Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Gary O’Neil may have made some interesting signings during the summer, but he was also forced to balance the books too, which meant selling a few of the club’s prized assets.

da lvbet： Max Kilman departed for £40m, joining West Ham United. Pedro Neto, arguably the Old Gold’s most bankable star, joined Chelsea for a fee in the region of £54m. While the defender may be easily replaced, it is clear that bringing in someone with the same sort of qualities that Neto exuded could be difficult.

Pedro Neto’s stats for Wolves last season

The winger enjoyed one of his most productive campaigns for the Old Gold in 2023/24, scoring three goals and registering 11 assists in all competitions.

Neto also created seven big chances, averaged key passes and 1.9 successful dribbles per game in the top flight, showcasing his attacking talents, despite playing just 20 times due to injury.

This form was enough for the Blues to splash out, ensuring Wolves received an impressive profit for the 24-year-old, although they have yet to properly replace him.

Might this change when the January transfer window comes around? As O’Neil is taking a close look at someone who is currently enjoying life in the Championship with Watford this term.

Wolves eyeing swoop for Championship star

As reported by journalist Alan Nixon earlier this week, (via GIVEMESPORT), Wolves are keeping tabs on Watford midfielder Giorgi Chakvetadze ahead of potentially making a swoop when the transfer window opens in a couple of months.

The Georgian international could cost the Old Gold between £15-£20m, but given they raked in massive amounts for Kilman and Neto, money shouldn’t be an immediate concern.

Two months is a long time in the Premier League, but it is evident O’Neil needs to add more creativity into his side, especially with survival vital.

Why Giorgi Chakvetadze could be a dream signing for Cunha

Matheus Cunha has already scored four goals this term and, once again, appears to be the club’s saviour as they seek their first league win.

The Watford man has scored once and grabbed three assists for the club this term, mainly operating as an attacking midfielder. He can play on the wing, however, hence making him a potential replacement for Neto next year.

2.5 key passes per game and five big chances created in the Championship suggest the 25-year-old could fill the void left by Neto, allowing him to create plenty of opportunities for Cunha and co.

Watford manager Tom Cleverly hailed the midfielder for his “sheer class” and there is no doubt he could add some extra attacking dynamism to the current Wolves starting XI.

Much will depend on what happens between now and January concerning the club making a move for him. If poor results persist, O’Neil may well find himself out of a job.

Should results improve, however, the Molineux side may well attempt to bring the player to the Midlands.

Durante a entrevista, Casão afirmou que é muito mais “completo” trabalhar em uma transmissão direto do estádio.

– Eu estou no estádio fazendo uma partida, estou vendo o campo inteiro. Se o time está atacando com muita gente e poucos defensores, eu posso falar: “esse time está atacando, mas se o adversário roubar a bola, eles estão desprotegidos”. Se estou no estúdio, eu vou ver só o ataque do time. No campo, eu falo e mostro que atrás está vazio, e o narrador continua a narração. É muito mais completo, profundo, tem mais propriedade – declarou Casão.

– No estúdio eu estou comentando igual o cara sentado no sofá. Ele só está vendo aquela imagem na TV e eu também. Não posso acrescentar nada para ele. Eu gosto de fazer jogo no estádio para acrescentar. É muito mais completa, profunda, prazerosa, porque você pode colocar tudo que você sabe e entende em pratica. No estúdio eu sinto que não estou conseguindo acrescentar nada. Fica aquele comentário trivial – ressaltou o ex-jogador.

Na parte final da entrevista, Casagrande revelou como a pandemia modificou os planejamentos da emissora.

– Começou com a pandemia, então você fica nos estúdios, depois realmente para a emissora é mais econômico. Não vai pegar avião,. hospedagem, alugar carro. Quando é no estúdio eu saio da minha casa. Teve uma certa acomodação das emissoras com essa facilidade de economizar nos estúdios durante a pandemia. Acho que isso é um erro. As TVs precisam dar qualidade para o publico. As emissoras precisam mostrar e dar o melhor para o publico, que é a equipe estar no estádio. Isso sim é dar qualidade de transmissão, dar gosto de fazer e deixar a pessoa que está assistindo satisfeita – completou Casão.

Pela Globo, Casagrande participou de cinco Copas do Mundo, três Olimpíadas e finais de competições nacionais e internacionais. O contrato do ex-jogador valia até o fim do ano, mas comentarista e emissora optaram por encurtar o processo. A saída do comentarista vem dividindo opiniões nas redes sociais.

da esport bet： Não foi uma atuação brilhante, mas o Flamengo se impôs diante do Cuiabá, no Maracanã, e voltou a vencer no Brasileirão após três derrotas seguidas. Com gols de Ayrton de Lucas e Gabigol, o 2 a 0 afastou o time de Dorival Jr do Z4, dando ao técnico um pouco mais de tranquilidade para trabalhar visando as “finais” que virão por aí.

Com o resultado, o Flamengo foi aos 15 pontos, subindo para a primeira metade da tabela. Agora, o Rubro-Negro enfrenta o Atlético-MG duas vezes: pelo Brasileirão, no domingo, e pelas oitavas de final da Copa do Brasil, na próxima quarta. Já o Cuiabá segue no Z4, com 12 pontos, e recebe o Ceará, no próximo sábado, na Arena Pantanal.

SEM QUERER TAMBÉM É GOL!

A proximidade do Z4 de ambos times deixaram o ambiente tenso ainda antes da bola rolar, mas o gol de Ayrton Lucas logo cedo, aos seis minutos, aliviou parte da tensão rubro-negra. É verdade que o lateral fez jogada individual e chegou à linha de buscando cruzar, mas a bola foi direto para o gol de Walter. E sem querer também é gol!

PRIMEIRO ABERTO E COM ALERTAS PARA O FLA!

A vantagem deixou o Flamengo mais leve e, atuando mais ao seu gosto sob o comando de Dorival Jr, com Arrascaeta na esquerda, Everton Ribeiro na direita, e Bruno Henrique e Gabi no comando do ataque, o time teve bom volume ofensivo. O melhor lance foi aos 19, com o camisa 9 cruzando para o uruguaio, de cabeça, acertar a trave.

Por outro lado, a quantidade de ataques desperdiçados – seja por um drible errado ou por uma escolha de passe equivocada – foi muito grande. Além disso, o Cuiabá, em transição rápida, conseguiu chegar com perigo à área do Fla. Foram cinco chutes dos visitantes contra sete do Rubro-Negro, mas os goleiros não fizeram grandes defesas.

Dorival Jr não fez mudanças no intervalo, mas foi obrigado a sacar David Luiz e Bruno Henrique na etapa inicial por problemas médicos. Já Antônio Oliveira optou por Jonathan Cafu no lugar de André Felipe.

CONTROLE E VITÓRIA RUBRO-NEGRA!
​
Diante do controle que o Flamengo teve até os 15 minutos, o técnico do Cuiabá voltou a mexer, apostando em Valdívia. O time de Dorival Jr, contudo, seguiu atuando de maneira tranquila, sem ser ameaçado, e com boa aproximação dos meias para manter o controle da bola.

As chances de gol, contudo, só começaram a aparecer a partir dos 23 minutos..Everton Ribeiro teve duas boas chances, mas finalizou para defesa de Walter e, depois, no travessão.Vitinho, Gabi e Arrascaeta tiveram chances, mas os erros na hora da decisão irritaram a torcida.

Com o Cuiabá sem conseguir avançar para o seu campo de ataque, o segundo gol do Flamengo parecia questão de tempo – e foi. De tanto insistir, Gabi acabou chegando ao seu gol. O passe de Vitinho foi na medida para o camisa 9, que garantiu a vitória e a festa no Maracanã.

da bet sport： If the discourse around the summer transfer window dictated a team’s final league standing come May, Liverpool would have finished their first Premier League season under Arne Slot in a pretty concerning position.

da roleta： Much of the flak fired at FSG on social media was justified – to a degree. Liverpool needed to reinforce their defence and sign a deep-lying midfielder and did neither. Having fallen short against Arsenal and Manchester City in the title race last year, this was questionable.

But Liverpool tried. They tried to sign Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad, only for the Spaniard to reject their advances. The Reds will not spend for the sake of spending; it would need to be the right player.

In defence, it could have been Goncalo Inacio, but he didn’t end up moving to Merseyside.

Arne Slot wanted to sign Goncalo Inacio

Liverpool have been keen on signing Inacio for some time now. In 2023, speculation was rife that Liverpool would make their move in what proved to be Jurgen Klopp’s final summer transfer window at the Anfield helm, but it didn’t materialise in the end, with the centre-back penning fresh terms in his homeland.

The 23-year-old has had quite the start to life on the senior stage, winning two Liga Portugal titles across the past four seasons despite the division being routinely dominated by Benfica and Porto, and he’s been praised for his “immense” technical quality by analyst Raj Chohan.

Liverpool might be biding their time considering the talent of the existing options in Slot’s rearguard, but Inacio has earned his stripes by this point, with 179 senior Sporting appearances and 12 Portugal caps to his name, and was there for the taking during the off-season.

It seems that the Sporting hierarchy was considering Inacio’s sale in August, with reports from the country claiming that they would consider offers totalling €45m (£38m), which is some distance below the £50m release clause that was part of his extended contract agreed just one year before.

Manchester United signed Matthijs De Ligt from Bayern Munich, but Liverpool will need to address their defensive dilemma at some point in the not-too-distant future and could have done so with Inacio – especially given the uncertainty surrounding Ibrahima Konate during the summer months.

Konate had not finished the campaign under Klopp well at all, losing his place to Jarell Quansah in the Premier League and being chastised for his “dreadful” displays by The Athletic’s James Pearce.

One that got away

The transfers that nearly happened but never did. This article is part of Football FanCast's One That Got Away series.

Expand Collapse

Had Inacio been signed, Konate might not have enjoyed the regular minutes that he has been handed by Slot so far, perhaps negating what is proving to be a wonderful resurgence.

Why Liverpool kept faith with Ibrahima Konate

Given that Inacio is left-footed, Konate wouldn’t have jockeyed for a starting spot all the time. The Portugual international may instead have been viewed as the long-term successor for Virgil van Dijk’s position in the team – perhaps he still is.

But Quansah is a real talent and could be a regular member of the starting line-up in a few years, and Konate is not going to want to budge from his reclaimed spot in central defence any time soon, playing like a man possessed this season.

Of course, it was the Frenchman’s mistake that let Wolves back into the game last weekend, with a defensive miscommunication with Alisson Becker allowing the hosts to scoop the ball into space and fire into an empty net, but this loss of concentration shouldn’t detract from a blistering start to the era.

As you can see, he’s been a mountain for the Reds this term, and if he can keep fitness levels on his side, could be in for his finest campaign yet.

It’s worth noting that the role of a defender, first and foremost, is defending. Now this is hardly revelatory, but it does perhaps shine a light on why interest in Inacio was not followed with an official transfer offer.

This season, he has been a key figure in Ruben Amorim’s title defence, and indeed, has performed well, showcasing his high-level distribution by completing 93% of his passes, as per Sofascore, also averaging 4.7 ball recoveries and 87 touches per game, highlighting his athleticism and importance, very much in the thick of the action.

But hold on a minute, what about his success in the duel? How does that compare to Liverpool’s defensive options – take a look.

As you can see, Inacio is considerably less effective in the duel. Jarell Quansah was hooked at half-time of Liverpool’s opener against Ipswich Town this season for failing to win enough duels for Slot, and given that he won four of eight contested (50%), this doesn’t bode well for Inacio, whose efforts across six fixtures have led him to a 49% success rate.

Moreover, Konate can do it all in regard to technique and progression. As per FBref, the France international ranks among the top 4% of centre-backs across Europe’s top five leagues over the past year for passes attempted, the top 5% for progressive passes, the top 10% for progressive carries and the top 1% for aerial battles won per 90.

He’s a dynamic and hulking centre-back, bearing a strong bond with Van Dijk and currently boasting the Premier League’s meanest defence, having conceded twice from six games.

Inacio might have his strengths, but Slot and Liverpool’s transfer team were wise not to oust their titan for a new part, just because.
