Cricinfo staff21-Sep-2009Michael Vaughan has made his first step towards forging a new career following his retirement from first-class cricket by agreeing to use his expertise as the new Business Development Manager at International Sports Management.The former England captain, who led the team to their historic 2005 Ashes triumph alongside Andrew Flintoff, has been weighing up opportunities since announcing his retirement mid-way through this summer.He has already confirmed he will be joining the BBC’s Test Match Special team for England’s winter tour to South Africa and will now take on greater responsibility within the ISM business in tandem with guiding and mentoring some of the exciting cricketing talent on their books.Vaughan will take an increasing role in generating new business and clients while helping in the development of players such as Glamorgan’s allrounder Jim Allenby, Somerset’s wicketkeeper-batsman Craig Kieswetter, Hampshire batsman James Vince and England seamer Graham Onions.Andrew Chandler, ISM’s managing director, said: “We’ve had a relationship going back to 2001, we know Michael well and I’ve always thought he had great potential in the business world – this is the next logical step for him.”

A segunda eliminação do Atlético-MG na temporada fez o presidente Daniel Nepomuceno cobrar do elenco uma vaga na Libertadores do ano que vem. É o mínimo que se pede após a eliminação em casa para o Jorge Wilstermann, da Bolívia, em pleno Mineirão.

– É Obrigação, sem dúvida nenhuma. São cinco anos consecutivos. Não tem como a equipe ficar fora do G-6. Acabaram as desculpas de jogo quarta e domingo. Temos que aproveitar o calendário agora, que só vão ter jogos do Brasileiro. É evidente que eu acredito, mesmo com tudo que aconteceu de errado, (o time) tem futebol para ficar no G-6 – comentou Nepomuceno.

O mandatário alvinegro também pediu que o time volte a jogar ao estilo ‘Galo doido’ e foi enfático ao ser questionado sobre se ele errou ou não no planejamento: não houve falhas, acredita.

-O Atlético tem que voltar às características dele, que é ir para frente. É evidente que teve várias falhas, mas não de planejamento. O elenco é muito unido. Vão falar sobre a entrega que o elenco pode dar ao novo treinador, que chegou há 15 dias. Eles entregaram. Não quero aqui ficar lamentando, quero colocar responsabilidade, é evidente que teve…. Esse ano fugiu tudo o que foi feito e do planejamento. Ninguém esperava isso. Quando corri atrás de novo jogador, eu só recebi aplausos. Quando a bola não entrou, a hora é de bater e cobrar responsabilidade – opinou Nepomuceno, que concedeu entrevista coletiva ao lado do técnico Rogério Micale.

O treinador do Galo, por sua vez, pediu que a torcida não encare a eliminação como ‘terra arrasada’ e cobrou união.

-Fizemos uma partida em que dominamos o tempo todo, mas não conseguimos o gol. É um momento difícil, desclassificação em um torneio importante, mas temos que reestruturar o mais rápido possível para nos recuperar no Brasileiro. A equipe vive um momento de oscilação. Temos que saber passar por esse momento, sem terra arrasada – comentou Micale.

Ao Atlético, eliminado na Copa do Brasil e Libertadores resta o Campeonato Brasileiro. O time está em 15°, com 23 pontos, quatro a mais que o São Paulo, primeiro time dentro do Z4, e a cinco do Sport, último do G6.

A number of Rangers supporters are pleased that John Lundstram is starting away to Dundee on Saturday afternoon.

Steven Gerrard’s men returned to Scottish Premiership action, following their midweek League Cup triumph at home to Livingston.

The Gers’ form has been a little up and down so far this season and the hope is that now is the point at which they click into top gear.

[freshpress-quiz id=“359326”]

The league leaders took on a Dundee side rooted at the bottom of the table, suggesting it should be a relatively comfortable day at the office for them.

Lundstram is again named in Rangers’ starting lineup, as he looks to kick on further after his move from Sheffield United.

Rangers fans react to Lundstram start

These Rangers fans took to Twitter to show their happiness at the news.

“Good to see Lundstram keeping his place today. He needs a run of games in his preferred position and he will shine. This is a strong Rangers side and I fully expect us to get all three points today. Mon The Gers!!! “

“Good to see Hagi starting. Roofe and Buff getting more minutes together  Lundstram playing ahead of Davis is the correct decision. Gives Davis more of a rest, which he needs and gives Lundstram more game time to get up to speed with Scottish football”

“Davis /Lundstram the obvious dilemma but perhaps a little break with do Davis some good. He’s played a lot of football already this season”

In other news, some Rangers fans have been loving a player’s social media post. Read more here.

Following a breathtaking 3-3 draw at Brentford in their previous Premier League fixture and a convincing 5-1 win against FC Porto in the Champions League, Liverpool are set to welcome Manchester City to Anfield on Sunday.

The clash is set up to be an intriguing one with the Reds, who have scored 15 goals in six league matches, facing a City side who have conceded just one goal in six top-flight games.

Milner could make the difference

One Liverpool player who will be missing from the match is right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold after Reds manager Jurgen Klopp confirmed that he is out with an injury after missing the midweek win at Porto.

Following this news, the manager revealed that the options he has to compensate for the 22-year-old’s absence are to either play James Milner, Neco Williams or Joe Gomez there, or even change the system altogether.

In our view, it should be the 35-year-old, who was described as “remarkable” by Match of the Day host Gary Lineker last month, who gets the nod over Williams or Gomez to start in the right-back position, even though Klopp revealed that the veteran apparently doesn’t like playing there.

Liverpool signed Milner, who is currently earning a weekly wage of £140k-per-week according to Spotrac, back in 2015 from Sunday’s opponents on a free transfer.

Since then, the 35-year-old – who is currently valued at £2.7m according to Transfermarkt – has made 254 appearances for the Merseysiders, more than for any other club he’s represented, with 26 goals and 45 assists along the way.

Throughout his career, Milner has played in just about every outfield position possible, providing five assists in the 15 games he has played as a right-back. While he may not like the roles and may have more experience playing in other positions, he has shown he is capable of being very effective from there.

Looking at the Porto game, the 35-year-old won three ground duels and three aerial duels, made two key passes and ultimately earned himself a solid overall match rating of 7.1/10 according to SofaScore. That shows just how capable he is of playing as a right-back who can balance attacking and defensive duties.

In our view, that should make him the favourite to fill in for Alexander-Arnold when City come to Anfield tomorrow. His experience and ability to operate at right-back could make a crucial difference against the champions’ prolific attack.

Steven Gerrard’s fitness concerns are continuing to build ahead of their game against St Johnstone this weekend, with Filip Helander the latest doubt ahead of Rangers’ trip to McDiarmid Park.

What’s the word?

Gerrard’s squad has already been put to the test in recent weeks with injury and covid issues but they have also been impacted by the international break, with Nathan Patterson forced to withdraw from Scotland duty after picking up a knock against Moldova recently.

Now Helander looks like he could be the latest name on the list of doubts after Sweden manager Janne Andersson suggested that he could miss their clash with Greece on Wednesday due to a fitness issue.

He said:

“Filip Helander (has) run individually in the gym. Some players have been given an adapted training load and will step up gradually.”

“It’s too early to say. We can’t take it for granted.”

A blow for Rangers?

Given that Helander was the hero in Rangers’ last game as they triumphed 1-0 in the Old Firm derby thanks to his header, it would undoubtedly be a blow for Gerrard if he wasn’t fit for their game against St Johnstone on Saturday afternoon.

Whilst there is no real explanation as to why Helander is struggling, the fact that he is a doubt for Wednesday suggests that he might not be at full fitness when he returns to Ibrox after international duty, which will surely anger his club manager.

[freshpress-quiz id=“593776”]

Gerrard was full of praise for the Swedish defender back in 2019, saying:

“He did ever so well for us in Portugal and he has stepped up and been a leader for us again. So I’m delighted with what he has done this week.”

The 41-year-old manager does have plenty of options at centre-back but has generally preferred Helander and Connor Goldson at the heart of his defence during his time as Rangers boss and will be disappointed if he has to deviate from that in important upcoming fixtures, especially with a Europa League game against Lyon to come at Ibrox next week.

And, in other news… Gerrard dealt potentially big blow with “outstanding” Rangers star

كشفت تقارير صحفية إسبانية، أن نادي برشلونة يخطط لتقديم عرض جديد لـ إشبيلية من أجل التعاقد مع المدافع الفرنسي جوليس كوندي.

تشيلسي ينافس برشلونة على ضم اللاعب الفرنسي، وكان قريبًا للغاية من التعاقد معه خلال الصيف الماضي.

صحيفة “موندو ديبورتيفو” الإسبانية، أكدت أن برشلونة كان يركز أولًا على تدعيم الهجوم، من خلال التعاقد مع روبرت ليفاندوفسكي، وتصريحات لابورتا الأخيرة كانت تؤكد على التحوّل الآن لدعم خط الدفاع.

تشيسي يعرض 65 مليون يورو وراتب سنوي 7 ملايين، ولكن النادي الكتالوني يثق في شخصية جوليس كوندي، خاصة أن برشلونة لن يتمكن من تقديم عرض أكبر من الذي قدمه البلوز.

برشلونة يجهز للعرض الأخير من أجل كوندي خلال الأيام القليلة المقبلة، وينتظر ما سيحدث، ويريد أن يتكرر سيناريو رافينها.

سيناريو البرازيلي، هو أنه رغم عرض تشيلسي وآرسنال الأكبر لضمه، لكنه فضل الانضمام إلى برشلونة، ويريد البلوجرانا نفس الأمر مع جوليس كوندي.

A reason has now been given why Newcastle United’s Deadline Day offer for Boubacar Kamara was rejected.

The Lowdown: Late offer

As per Le Phoceen, the St. James’ Park faithful made a last-minute offer to try and sign the Marseille ace on Transfer Deadline Day.

However, he would have been ‘extremely hesitant’ to have made the move to the North East.

The Latest: Deal off

As per The Athletic, Kamara decided that he wanted to stay at Marseille in the end, despite offers from both Wolves as well as the Tyneside club.

The Ligue 1 team had hoped to move him on given that he only has a year left on his current deal, and now it is anticipated that he will either sign a new contract or leave on a free transfer in 2022.

The Verdict: Shame

It is a shame that a move for Kamara to Steve Bruce’s side eventually fell through.

Once dubbed a ‘phenomenon’ by his former teammate Rolando back in May 2020, the Frenchman still has a lot of potential at just 21 years of age, and his ability to be equally as comfortable at centre-back as well as in defensive midfield (Transfermarkt) would have been a valuable asset to have in the squad.

Nonetheless, the Magpies only managed to bring in one player on a permanent deal in Joe Willock from Arsenal, and given that he was on loan there last season, fans have every right to be worried about the lack of improvement from last term.

In other news, find out why this Toon ace’s move was blocked here!

Everton have reportedly submitted a bid for Rangers defender Nathan Patterson, and it would be a huge blow for Steven Gerrard if the 19-year-old were to depart Ibrox this summer.

What’s the word?

According to The Athletic, the Toffees made a bid for the teenager last week, with Rafa Benitez looking to add to his right-back options at Goodison Park.

It has been previously suggested that Rangers may be forced to sell key players this summer in order to balance the books but thus far we have only seen fringe players such as George Edmundson and Jordan Jones depart.

The likes of Alfredo Morelos, Ryan Kent and Glen Kamara had been touted as potential options to leave but as it stands, Rangers are yet to receive an acceptable bid for any of those players, so they may be forced to consider an offer from Everton if they meet the Gers’ valuation for Patterson.

Would it be a blow to lose Patterson?

Despite only making 17 appearances in his first-team career at Rangers, Patterson is highly regarded at Ibrox.

The teenage defender came into the side last season when James Tavernier was injured and he seriously impressed with his performances, to the extent where some Rangers fans were calling for him to start ahead of the captain at right-back.

His displays were enough to convince Scotland manager Steve Clarke to include him in his Euro 2020 squad, and whilst the 19-year-old is yet to make an appearance for his country, he looks to have a huge future with the Tartan Army.

Rangers’ head of academy Craig Mulholland was full of praise for Patterson last season, saying: “Nathan has been fantastic for us this year.

“Again, we started the project five, six, years ago to get a level of player that we felt could go and compete in the Europa League, could go and compete in Old Firm games.

“And if you go and look at Nathan in the last 16 of the Europa League, if you look at him in the Old Firm game, it’s a great example for all the young players in here of what we’re trying to achieve.”

[freshpress-quiz id=“593776”]

Therefore, the vast majority of those involved with Rangers will surely be desperate for Patterson to stay at the club this summer and it would be a huge blow for Gerrard to lose him, but it may be difficult to turn Everton down if they come in with a serious offer.
