November 1, 2023 No Comments

Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba says he holds no grudges against his alleged extortionists. This is according to reports by AFP, which are reporting on Pogba’s September 15 hearing with local Paris investigators involving the claimed blackmail plot against him, which included his older brother Mathias Pogba. “They will always have a place in my heart,” said Pogba, thinking of his brother and the other boyhood friends involved. Adding: “I had a lot of respect for all those people, they were like my family. “The truth will come out.” Pogba, reports Le Monde, would have explained to investigators that he had always wanted to support his family circle, but then refused when, in 2021, the requests for money reached an unacceptable level.

Kopa Trophy winner Bellingham backs the Messi vote and says: “He is an incredible player, that is why he has eight awards. Without a doubt, Messi is one of the best footballers in history. “He is incredible, for all the work he has done, not only for what he has seen in the World Cup.” Asked about winning the Ballon d’Or himself, Bellingham said: “Honestly, I still don’t think about it.

Emerson: Tottenham top of the table doing tough things right

November 1, 2023 No Comments

Tottenham Hotspurs defender Emerson Royal has released details about his teammates in a new interview. Royal who has been having a fantastic season so far, is loving life under coach Ange Postecoglou. As Spurs soar high at the top of the table, Royal also set aside some time to discuss the liveliest one of his teammates. He stated, per R7: “Top of the table is great and the results are great but it’s more in the manner we’re doing it. “Pretty much from the first game we’ve had all sorts of different challenges we’ve had to overcome. Every time there has been a real focus and clear-headedness about the group collectively to deal with that. “That has been a really pleasing thing and because they’re getting rewards from that then that gives us opportunity to accelerate the growth of giving them more tools out there to help them for whatever we need to overcome. “Like I said, I thought tonight was going to be a real difficult game for us coming here… Palace’s result last week, it’s a tight ground, they’d only conceded three goals in the four games so far and how were the lads going to cope with the fact we weren’t going to create as many chances as we had been. I really liked the way we worked through that as a group.” He also talked about his teammates and the dressing room: “Our dressing room is a little different. “Everyone has a personality, there are people who are more relaxed, and there are people who enjoy being more playful. “The South Americans talk louder, the English are calmer. They like silence best. But the most vocal is Son [Heung-min]. I say he’s a fake Korean, he acts Brazilian! “The South Americans, [Christian] Romero, [Rodrigo] Bentancur, Pedro Porro too, who is Spanish. We interact a lot, play music. Each one has their own characteristics, but we always try to bring a different bit of joy into the dressing room.” Emerson said.

Comolli: Henry was not sure about buying Suarez for Liverpool

October 28, 2023 No Comments

Liverpool’s former director of football, Damien Comolli, said it took a lot of convincing to get the club to sign Luis Suarez. Suarez was highly rated at Ajax before he moved to the Reds. The Uruguayan forward did have disciplinary issues even at that stage of his career. Comolli, who was fired from his job in April 2013, played a huge role in the club acquiring Suarez and Andy Caroll after Fernando Torres was sold to Chelsea. Speaking to The Telegraph, Comolli revealed: “You have to remind people you are doing a good job, and you need to manage up. “You need to constantly sell your project and keep the ownership on board. I was useless at it. Which sporting director gets fired after winning the [League] Cup and being in the FA Cup final with no money? “I had to convince John Henry [FSG principal owner] to lend money to buy Luis Suarez. We were skint. We won the first trophy since 2006, and I got fired. “If I was good at communicating up and outwards, I don’t know if I would still be in a job, [but] I would have been in a different situation.” Related Premier League News: Tottenham launch ‘legacy initiative’ with every player assigned historic number.
