Graeme Souness has slammed Manchester United forward Anthony Martial, claiming he does not have the right mentality to play for the Premier League giants and cannot be relied upon by Erik ten Hag. Martial looked set to start United’s Premier League opener against Brighton on Sunday before pulling up with a muscular injury in training . The Frenchman spent the second-half of last season on loan at Sevilla and that temporary move appeared to pave the way for Martial’s permanent departure from Old Trafford. But Martial impressed Ten Hag in pre-season and the Dutch boss was reportedly planning to start him up top for United against Brighton before the injury setback. Souness is surprised by Ten Hag’s verdict on Martial as the former Liverpool defender does not believe the 26-year-old has the right mindset to flourish for a club like Manchester United. The Sky Sports pundit even compared Martial with ex-United midfielder Paul Pogba and says they are both … [Read more...] about Graeme Souness slams Manchester United star Anthony Martial: ‘You can’t rely on him – he’s dodgy like Paul Pogba’

Rio Ferdinand believes Arsenal skipper Martin Odegaard could suffer a drop-off in performance this season while he is not convinced by the club’s midfield options. The Gunners opened the new Premier League season with a 2-0 victory away to Crystal Palace on Friday night at Selhurst Park – a ground where they suffered a heavy loss last season that damaged their top-four hopes. Arsenal sparkled in the first half-hour, taking a deserved lead through Gabriel Martinelli, though Palace had chances to level the scores through Odsonne Edouard and Eberechi Eze. With time running out, Bukayo Saka’s cross was diverted into his own net by Marc Guehi to seal the victory for the Gunners. Ferdinand, though, was not exactly blown away by Arsenal’s performance and feels Odegaard looked out of sorts after being handed the captain’s armband, while he also questioned Granit Xhaka and Thomas Partey. ‘I reckon you nailed it with Odegaard, I reckon that captain’s armband weighs … [Read more...] about Rio Ferdinand has concerns over Martin Odegaard and suggests two Arsenal stars can’t be relied on

A claim that most host cities make to attract athletes and crowds alike.

Speaking on WWE’s official YouTube channel, Theron said: “I have zero martial arts background. “I do have a background in ballet, I was a ballerina for the first part of my life, that was my first career. “Strangely, I was a physical storyteller before I was a verbal one. “There is an element of being able to play in the genre that reminds me a lot of my first career as a dancer and transforming and being emotional and telling an emotional story but never using your voice, just using your body. “That, to me, is very similar, the discipline of ballet reminds me of the discipline of martial arts.” Host and … [Read more...] about Hollywood star Charlize Theron gives encouraging response to WWE invite

With the Lionesses scoring freely through Euro 2022, it’s the driving force needed to get more women and girls involved in football in the UK. Sadly, females represent just 2% of people playing the sport, according to Jim Law of the Findaplayer website, which helps locate local teams and events. Reassuringly though, that number is expected to rise dramatically this year, with more than 6,500 active female-only or mixed games across the nation. Whether it’s on a competitive or social level, there are so many reasons to give football a go. Euro 2022 tournament sponsor Visa commissioned a report into women’s football, Women Thriving On And Off The Pitch, which showed that: Three quarters of those who play team sport say it has had a positive impact on their business life.
