Parker named England CaptainStuart Pearce has revealed today that Tottenham midfielder Scott Parker will lead England out against Holland on Wednesday. Parker has been in excellent form for England of late but with just 10 caps he may not have been the most obvious man to take the captaincy.
Thanks Psycho but we need a real England boss now!Stuart Pearce watched his England side, lose in extra time on Wednesday night against a disciplined and clinical Holland team. The Three Lions coming back from a 2 goal deficit was not enough to save them from defeat as Robben curled in a late shot beating England keeper Joe Hart.
Let's face it Pearce will not even be in consideration to lead the Three Lions out in Poland at the Euro 2012 competition. Now the FA must step up and take a decision as soon as possible...but will they? RVP going no-where says Wenger!Recent speculation has linked Arsenal's high flying top goalscorer with a move away from the Emirates in favour of a switch to big spenders Manchester City.
Robin Van Persie has been on fire in the Premier League so far this season scoring an incredible 25 goals in 27 games. This has of course alerted the attention of Roberto Mancini, the Man City manager, who is said to be extremely interested in signing the Dutch striker. | AVB SACKED!Andre Villas-Boas has been sacked by Chelsea Football Club. The following is the statement released by Chelsea FC this afternoon -
"The board would like to record our gratitude for his work and express our disappointmentthat the relationship has ended so early. Unfortunately the results and performances of the team have not been good enough and were showing no signs of improving at a key time in the season." Roberto Di Matteo will take over as caretaker manager until the end of the season but who will be the next full time Chelsea manager? Tevez back to Man City...reserves.Carlos Tevez has finally returned to Manchester this week but he is now part of the reserve team set-up, however he lasted just 45 minutes on his debut at Carrington. Tevez, 27, who has not played a match for Manchester City since his bust-up with Roberto Mancini on September 27, looked to regain his fitness and form that he showed for City last season.
Does Tevez have a place in the city team anymore? And can he regain the trust of his fellow players and his manager? Redknapp for England? Harry says still "no contact"Harry Redkanpp has revealed this week that the FA have not made any contact with him in regards to the vacant England managers' job. Redknapp is the favourite for the england job since Capello resigned on 8 February, leaving Stuart Pearce to take temporary control for the Holland game at Wembley Stadium.
Despite being the fans and the media's favourite to take charge of the Three Lions, Redknapp seems to be happy where he is at Tottenham, especially with Spurs currently in the 'Top 4' potentially challenging for the Premiership. But despite the high odds of him receiving the honour of managing his country, is Harry the right man for the job? And does he even want it? Tom Westcott reports. Guardiola refuses to commit to BarcelonaPep Guardiola has announced that he is not willing to speak about his future at Barcelona at this present time.
Guardiola who's contract at the Nou Camp runs out in June looks to have put Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich on red alert, as the Russian is said to want the Barcelona chief as his next Chelsea boss. But Guardiola is known for choosing just a year contract in his past two seasons at the Catalan Giants in order to keep his options open. He has already won two Champions League titles, as well as many 3 La Liga Championships and a Copa Del Rey. If Guardiola was to win the Champions League again this season, with Barcelona favourites to do so, maybe Guardiola will look to end his reign at Barcelona having achieved all he can? Stamford Bridge the next port of call for the Catalan boss? Stranger thing's have happened... |
