Many Everton fans have been left slamming the display of Jonjoe Kenny as they crashed out of the Carabao Cup third round stage on Tuesday night.

Two goals from former Premier League striker Charlie Austin were enough to take the Goodison Park faithful all the way to a penalty shootout, after Lucas Digne and Andros Townsend had to draw them level twice.

Rafa Benitez’s side then lost on penalties 8-7 after Tom Davies missed a crucial spot kick.

Stepping in for Seamus Coleman, Kenny really struggled at right-back against the Championship outfit, losing out on five of his duels as well as recording no blocked shots or interceptions, while losing possession of the ball on no fewer than on 14 separate occasions, the third-most out of any of his teammates (Sofascore).

These supporters of the Merseyside club slammed his performance on Twitter, with one Toffee even going as far as to claim that he was ‘shocking’:

Cuca confirmou apenas um titular do Palmeiras para o jogo deste domingo, contra o Sport: Jailson. O goleiro, destaque no empate com o Flamengo, segue na equipe, e consequentemente Fernando Prass ficará mais uma vez no banco. No ataque, Deyverson deve ser usado ao menos em parte da partida.

A mudança na meta foi uma forma de preservar Fernando Prass, segundo o treinador. O camisa 1 vinha sendo questionado por atuações ruins e perdeu a vaga no jogo de quarta. Jailson entrou bem e pegou pênalti de Diego, no segundo tempo do 2 a 2 com o Fla.

– O critério que usei é: goleiro quando tem uma falha pequena, microfalha, e ela não passa despercebida. Uma falha normal e ela é vista como grande falha, acho que é hora de preservar. Foi este meu critério de colocar o Jailson no momento. Mas o Fernando para mim é um cara a ser espelhado por todos, inclusive pelo Jailson. Cara que tem todo nosso respeito e admiração e pode voltar, natural, é do futebol – afirmou o treinador.

-O Jailson sempre apoiou ele, em todos os jogos, e agora é a vez do Fernando, como ele apoiou o Jailson depois do jogo de quarta, em que foi cumprimentar ele. Isto é uma equipe. Fernando e o Jailson fazem parte dela – completou.

Em relação à rodada passada, Michel Bastos, Tchê Tchê, Dudu e Borja estão suspensos. Willian, machucado. Com tantos desfalques, Cuca terá de antecipar o uso de Deyverson. O ex-jogador do Alavés (ESP) ainda não está no ideal físico, mas precisa ser preparado também de olho no jogo contra o Barcelona (EQU), dia 9 de agosto, pelas oitavas da Libertadores. O técnico ainda não diz se o colocará como titular ou no segundo tempo.

– O Deyverson precisa de rodagem. Ele automaticamente vai jogar uma parte do jogo, vamos analisar que parte. É um jogador que precisa de rodagem, não pode jogar no meio de semana (não está inscrito na Copa do Brasil). Não é o ideal estrear, precisaria de um tempo maior, estava há 30 dias de férias, e seis, sete de trabalho. É pouco, mas usá-lo um pouco, é necessário – encerrou.

Após o treino desta tarde, o Verdão fará mais um trabalho sábado, em Pernambuco, antes de pegar o Sport, domingo. Uma possível escalação tem: Jailson; Mayke, Mina, Edu Dracena (Luan) e Egídio; Thiago Santos, Bruno Henrique e Zé Roberto; Keno, Róger Guedes e Deyverson (Erik).

Speaking to Football Insider, Tottenham Hotspur ‘insider’/club source John Wenham has made a managerial claim involving Mauricio Pochettino.

The Lowdown: Pressure on Nuno…

This Sunday could play centre stage to one of the most crucial games of Tottenham’s season already as the pressure grows on new manager Nuno Espirito Santo.

After a brilliant start, even managing to pick up the Premier League Manager of the Month award for August, the 47-year-old is now at the centre of reported unrest behind the scenes.

Tottenham have lost their last three league games in humiliating fashion, conceding three goals to a trio of their London rivals in the space of a few weeks.

Now, Wenham made a managerial claim involving former fan favourite Pochettino.

The Latest: Pochettino claim dropped…

As per the Spurs insider/club source, who regularly breaks news on his social media channel Lilywhite Rose, Tottenham and by extension chairman Daniel Levy ‘are watching’ Pochettino’s situation at Paris-Saint Germain.

“Tottenham are watching the situation at PSG,” Wenham told Football Insider.

“The Messi-Pochettino thing has somewhat quietened down by the looks of things.

“If Pochettino became available, would Tottenham replace Nuno with him?

“I think they would. All you have to do is look at how hard Levy went for him in the summer.

“They were scared off by the financial muscle of PSG. I think that is the only way Tottenham would get rid of Nuno.”

The Verdict: Tall order…

Nuno arguably hasn’t had enough time to change Tottenham’s fortunes and it’s only logical he gets a fair crack at the whip.

If results continue to slump in devastating fashion as they have done, though, Pochettino would come as an amazing appointment if they can prise him away from the French capital – especially considering former keeper Heurelho Gomes called him a ‘football genius’.

However, Spurs tried and failed to bring him back to N17 earlier this year and it could be an even taller order now given the squad Pochettino has to play with at PSG.

As it stands, Levy bringing back the £115,000-per-week boss certainly seems unlikely from our point of view.

While Fulham’s transfer business in the past few years has been questionable at times, with the Cottagers shelling out £27m on Jean Michael Seri and £10.5m on Anthony Knockaert, there have also been a number of deals that have proven to be extremely smart moves by Tony Khan and his transfer team.

Arguably the most impressive of these deals was Fulham’s £1.49m signing of Manchester City centre-back Tosin Adarabioyo, with the 23-year-old having already demonstrated that he is a player worth considerably more than the nominal fee the club paid for his services.

Khan struck gold

Indeed, following his move to west London back in 2020, the centre-back highly impressed over his 33 Premier League appearances in Fulham’s 2020/21 campaign, helping his side keep nine clean sheets, as well as making an average of 1.3 interceptions, 1.1 tackles, 5.8 clearances and winning 4.1 duels per game,

These returns saw the former England U19 international earn a seasonal SofaScore match rating of 6.92, ranking him as Scott Parker’s ninth-best performer in the top flight that season – a highly impressive feat for a defender when taking into account the club’s relegation.

The £27k-per-week man has continued his upward trajectory over eight Championship appearances so far this term, helping the Cottagers keep two clean sheets, as well as making an average of 1.4 interceptions, one tackle, 3.8 clearances and winning four duels per fixture.

These metrics have seen the 23-year-old average a rather remarkable SofaScore match rating of 7.21, ranking the player Tony Mowbray dubbed an “exceptional” talent as Marco Silva’s fifth-best player in the second tier.

As such, it will likely come as no surprise to Fulham fans that Adarabioyo is now valued by Transfermarkt at £10.8m, or why a number of Premier League sides were reported to be interested in the centre-back in the summer transfer window.

And, with the sky very much appearing to be the limit for the defender’s potential, his value will only be heading in one direction in the years to come – with Tony Khan looking to have struck gold upon signing the youngster 12 months ago.

Nottingham Forest have been dealt a major blow in their bid to bring Max Lowe to the City Ground this summer.

What’s the talk?

That’s according to a report by Football League World, who claim that Dane Murphy’s side have seen an offer of a season-long loan for the left-back turned down by Sheffield United.

The report goes on to state that both Reading and Swansea City are also believed to be interested in the defender, while it is unclear whether Forest will continue their pursuit of the 24-year-old following their failed approach.

Murphy must move

With there having been something of a defence overhaul at Nottingham Forest this summer, with all of Yuri Ribeiro, Nikolas Ioannou, Michael Dawson and Michael Hefele having departed the club, while it is also clear that there is no real future for either Carl Jenkinson or Gaetan Bong in Nottingham, Chris Hughton has been left rather short in a number of positions across his backline.

However, it is undoubtedly at left-back where the 62-year-old lacks the most depth, with the former Norwich City manager having to recall Bong from his exile in order to field a player in the position so far this season.

As such, it would certainly appear as if the position is somewhere Murphy must strengthen prior to the closure of the summer transfer window next Tuesday, with Lowe appearing to be a fantastic candidate for the club.

Indeed, while the former England U20 international failed to cement a place in the Sheffield United starting XI last season, making just eight appearances in the competition, the left-back nevertheless proved in the campaign prior he is an extremely capable option in the Championship.

Indeed, over his 29 second-tier appearances for Derby County back in 2019/20, the £2.7m-rated man helped his side keep three clean sheets, as well as making an average of 1.6 interceptions, 3.7 tackles, 1.6 clearances and winning a whopping 6.9 duels per game.

These returns saw the man Alan Biggs dubbed a “proven Championship performer” earn a seasonal SofaScore match rating of 6.83, earning the £14k-per-week defender a £3.47m move to the then-Premier League side Sheffield United.

So, the signing of Lowe would not only have plugged a gap that needs filling for Hughton, his addition would also more than likely have helped to raise the overall level of defending in the Forest backline, something that is desperately needed at the City Ground at present – leading us to believe Murphy should indeed do all he can to secure a deal for the left-back over what remains of the summer transfer window.

Some Manchester United fans have been left fuming as an update emerged on Jadon Sancho.

As per the Red Devils’ official website, the former Borussia Dortmund star will miss England’s remaining September fixtures at home to Andorra and away to Poland respectively.

He missed the 4-0 win in Hungary on Thursday because he sustained a slight injury in training, and it appears to be more serious than first thought given that he has had to withdraw from the England squad.

Manchester United fans will surely be hoping that Sancho can recover in time for them to play Newcastle in their first game back after the international break next Saturday, especially with the prospect of linking up with Cristiano Ronaldo on the veteran’s second Old Trafford debut.

لا يرغب الدولي البرازيلي داني ألفيس، ظهير برشلونة السابق، في اعتزال كرة القدم، حيث يبحث عن نادٍ يلعب فيه، حتى يكون جاهزًا لكأس العالم 2022 في قطر رفقة منتخب بلاده.

ورحل ألفيس عن برشلونة، بعد أن قرر النادي الكتالوني عدم تمديد عقده، وإخباره أنه لن يكون ضمن خطط تشافي هرنانديز في الموسم الجديد 2022/2023.

وكتب ألفيس عبر حسابه الرسمي بموقع التواصل الاجتماعي “إنستجرام”: “هذا اليوم الأخير في عقدي مع برشلونة، ولم أوقع مع فريق جديد حتى الآن، لذا دعوني أقوم بتسويق نفسي لأنني كبير في السن وفقدت فرصتي في السوق”.

وتابع: “في الفيديو الذي أمامكم سترون رجلًا عجوزًا يفعل بعض الأشياء بطريقة مختلفة ودائمًا مرفوع الرأس”.

يُذكر أن ألفيس خاض 16 مباراة مع برشلونة في فترته الثانية مع النادي الكتالوني، سجل خلالها هدفا وصنع 3 أهداف.

Aston Villa are ready to meet Juventus’ demands for midfielder Weston McKennie, according to Corriere dello Sport, cited by Sports Witness.

The Lowdown: McKennie profiled

McKennie, a USA international, is a central midfielder who can also play in a defensive role or on the right-hand side.

He made his loan move to Juventus from Schalke permanent this summer in a deal worth £18.45m.

McKennie, described as a ‘leader’ by David Wagner, has made 46 appearances for the Italian giants and has turned out in a remarkable eight separate positions during his career.

The Latest: Villa bid

According to Corriere dello Sport, cited by Sports Witness, Villa are ready to satisfy Juventus’ €30m (£25.7m) valuation for McKennie.

The report added that McKennie ‘did not accept’ a move to West Ham and also ‘doesn’t like’ the sound of a Villa Park switch.

However, they finish their story by saying that might change before the end of the month, so a deal could be one to keep a close eye on.

The Verdict: Avoid

If McKennie doesn’t like the sound of a Villa Park switch, then Johan Lange and co should end Villa’s interest straight away.

The club have managed to lure the likes of Emi Buendia and Leon Bailey to the Midlands this summer, so if McKennie isn’t keen, perhaps Villa should look elsewhere.

The report claims that McKennie might have a change of heart in the final days, but it sounds as if he wants a move to Tottenham, so Villa shouldn’t wait around and play second best.

Fulham have been dealt a blow in their bid to secure Aboubakar Kamara an exit from Craven Cottage this summer.

What’s the talk?

That’s according to a claim made by Peter Rutzler, with The Athletic journalist revealing in a post on Twitter that talks regarding the 26-year-old’s proposed £4m switch to Aris Salonica have collapsed.

In his tweet, Rutzler said: “It’s understood that talks regarding a £4m transfer for Fulham’s Aboubakar Kamara to Greek Super League side Aris Salonica have broken down.”

Silva will be fuming

Considering just how poor Kamara has been for Fulham in recent seasons, reports that a deal which would have seen the striker seal an exit from Craven Cottage this summer – particularly for a fee of £4m – has fallen through is sure to have left Silva frustrated.

Indeed, over his 11 Premier League appearances for Fulham last term, the £1.8m-rated man scored no goals, registered no assists and missed one big chance, averaging just 0.2 shots on target per game.

These returns saw the man Claudio Ranieri dubbed “disrespectful” when he dislodged regular penalty taker Aleksandar Mitrovic to hit a spot kick in 2018, only to duly miss, earn an average SofaScore match rating of 6.36, ranking him as the Cottagers’ fifth-worst performer in the top flight.

Seemingly as a result of these disappointing displays, in addition to his considerable £21k-per-week wages, Scott Parker subsequently sent the Mauritania international out on loan to Dijon for the second half of the campaign.

As such, it would very much appear as if Kamara’s time at Fulham is all but up, and with Aris having offered an extremely generous figure for the striker, this move would have been a fantastic outcome for Marco Silva and the west London club.

However, with his proposed switch to Greece now appearing dead in the water, Tony Khan and Fulham’s transfer team will now have to get to work on finding the 26-year-old a new club.
