Forwards, who live next to each other, make for an effective partnership but will potential suitors pull them apart?Maybe it was a distraction technique or just because he couldn’t believe Bryan Mbeumo would miss again. The sight of Yoane Wissa raising his arms in celebration and running towards the away supporters before his strike partner – and nextdoor neighbour – had even started his run-up for the retaken penalty against Crystal Palace on Saturday was one of the more comical moments of the season.But it said everything about the relationship between the two forwards, whose goals have made Brentford the fifth-highest scoring team in the Premier League before their meeting with Tottenham on Sunday, with both reaching double figures before the halfway mark.

Champions League playoffs: Bayern to face CelticTen things to look out for this weekend | Mail SimonUefa are still preambling. I have learned that one side of the draw will be silver and the other side will be blue.Uefa are going big on the preambles here, so I’ve got time to remind you of the basic rules. There are eight seeded teams and eight unseeded teams. The two seeded teams with the highest league finish will be drawn against the two unseeded teams with the lowest league finish and so on, until everyone’s paired up. So Atalanta will play Sporting or Brugge, and Borussia Dortmund will play the other one, while PSG will play Monaco or Brest and Benfica will get the other one. You can play teams from your own country, and teams you played in the group. Got it? Great. Continue reading...

Elusive European title closer with the arrival of stars and enough talent for two formidable starting XIsHave Chelsea built a team capable of winning the Champions League? The short answer is yes. The longer context is that their burning desire for European glory is no secret. It was the only trophy missing from their cabinet under Emma Hayes. The 2020-21 finalists have spent years focusing on what they believed it would take to bridge a gap to Lyon caused primarily by the gap in investment. Now, with the French club hunted down by Barcelona, who have won the Champions League three times in the past four years, the focus has expanded.How to do it, though? In the 2020-21 final Chelsea were swept aside, conceding four times in 36 minutes to a Barcelona team fuelled by the pain of a not dissimilar defeat by Lyon two seasons before in their first final. Hayes’s team did not follow a similar path, though. After their first final the gap seemed to get bigger, an anomaly season when they f...

Under-fire owner has transformed Tottenham into a fully self-sustaining entity. The alternatives are hardly more palatableThere was a tender moment at the end of Tottenham’s win against Elfsborg on Thursday night as Ange Postecoglou walked out on to the pitch looking a little haunted and jittery, a strange kind of light in his eyes. It took a few seconds to work out what was up. The reason for this was he was happy. Here was a man remembering how to smile, willing his face into the right kind of shape, searching for the muscle memory.It was also a nice moment. The recent run of Bad Ange stuff, the Ange who does interviews like a policeman standing too close to you in a tiny lift, has been painful to watch. The Premier League is brutal. It will stretch you thin. And it has been rough with Postecoglou, who came with no comparable experience, who is 59 years old, and has had the air of a man finding the end of his reach, radiating sadness from every rain-sodden panel of his quilted coa...

La Liga president: lack of awareness may aid ‘elitist’ idea‘What they’re looking for is to generate instability’The president of La Liga, Javier Tebas, has warned that football cannot afford to overlook the threat posed by A22, whose latest proposal for a European Super League was unveiled in December.Uefa is currently considering how to respond after A22 launched plans for a Unify League, which follows two previous failed concepts. One option is to authorise the plan and let clubs decide whether to jump ship from the Champions League and other existing continental tournaments. There is little evidence A22 could spark a meaningful breakaway despite holding talks with a number of clubs, but Tebas is concerned that a lack of understanding may help an “elitist” idea gain traction.
