49 h. ago If Tebas had only listened he might have got his La Liga game abroad | Sid Lowe

In an embarrassing climbdown, the game in Miami is off with the league having alienated the players and even Villarreal, the club that was on its sideIf there is a moment that defined La Liga’s fourth failed attempt to play in Miami, an image to explain why everything went wrong, it may have been the moment it was all over. On Tuesday night, Spanish television broadcast reaction to the news from the Estadio de la Ceràmica, live and unfiltered.Cameras caught someone else who felt dismissed and disrespected, treated as if they didn’t count. This time it was someone who was supposed to be on the league’s side, but now appeared as a portrait of poor planning and poorer communication, a lack of consideration that pushed the project to collapse.

53 h. ago ‘Long overdue’: England players finally follow in footsteps of giants | Aaron Bower

First series against Australia since 2003 starts on Saturday and there is no shortage of motivation for the home sideThe pantheon of players who have represented England and Great Britain in the past 22 years is a modern‑day who’s who of the game. Sam Burgess, James Graham, Sean O’Loughlin, James Roby the list is long, storied and impressive.You could argue there is plenty dividing those players, not least their ferocious rivalries at club level in Super League. But the one thing they have in common is that they were never able to represent their country in the most intense series of them all, the Ashes. Since 2003 the concept has been on hiatus but, finally, on Saturday it returns in some style. Continue reading...

The club’s new 38-year-old manager Sébastien Pocognoli has to improve results, change the team’s style and integrate new players – all during an injury crisisBy Get French Football NewsTime is a precious commodity that has been in short supply for Sébastien Pocognoli. The precocious 38-year-old has not needed much of it to forge a reputation as one of the most promising young managers in the game, but he has had to maximise every second since joining Monaco as he plots a course through the chaos.His first training session with his new players, last Tuesday, was a microcosm of the job at hand for the man who led Union Saint-Gilloise to their first Belgian title since 1935 last season. “In the first training session, there was too much intensity. It was pretty chaotic. I had to calm them down,” said Pocognoli, who nonetheless insists on “intensity” and set the tone himself, physically grappling with his new players as he took part in the drills as the sun set on the club’s performance...

5 d. ago Defensive woes a bigger headache for Slot than getting Isak and Salah to fire | Andy Hunter

Record signing and Liverpool talisman continue to toil but it is crumbling foundations at back where real problems lieThe time has come to start judging Alexander Isak fairly as a £125m Liverpool centre forward, Arne Slot said on Friday. In that case judgment must be harsh but, as Britain’s most expensive footballer sat alongside Mohamed Salah on the Liverpool bench while the Premier League champions tried in vain to force an equaliser against Manchester United without them, it was not Slot’s misfiring forward line that warranted the fiercest criticism at Anfield. His defensive foundation has evaporated.Yes, Isak was largely anonymous in the No 9 role and Salah again poor as his individual toils continued against the club he usually plunders. The Sweden international had his first shot on target in the Premier League as a Liverpool player in the 35th minute, well saved by United’s latest goalkeeper Senne Lammens. Salah squandered a glorious second-half chance in front of the Kop and...
