Pardew earns Ferguson praise

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson believes Alan Pardew has been central in the success of Premier League surprise packets Newcastle.

Pardew s Newcastle side have performed above expectations this term and sit fourth in the Premier League standings.

They suffered their only defeat of the domestic campaign thus far at leaders Manchester City last weekend and will face another stern test at Old Trafford against Ferguson s men on Saturday.

I ve always respected Alan Pardew, I ve always rated him, Ferguson told his club s official website.

I think he was unfairly treated at West Ham and at Southampton, it was ridiculous actually. He took West Ham to the FA Cup final and was one minute away from winning the cup. He was so unlucky.

Pardew was…

Chalobah seals Burnley loan switch

Burnley have made their second signing of deadline day with Nathaniel Chalobah joining on loan from Chelsea until January.

The England Under-21 midfielder moves to Turf Moor following temporary spells with Nottingham Forest and Middlesbrough in the Championship last season.

Chalobah becomes the second player to bolster manager Sean Dyche s squad on Monday after George Boyd s earlier arrival from Hull City on a three-year deal.

The 19-year-old won the European Under-17 Championship with England in 2010 and helped Watford to the Championship play-off final amid a successful stay in 2012-13, although he is yet to make a Premier League appearance.

He is currently on duty with Gareth Southgate s England Under-21 squad, where he is joined by new Burnley team-ma…

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Peaks at Over 24,000 Concurrent Steam Players

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 has endured a troubled launch, with a large number of players being unable to even get into the game. Microsoft says that server issues have been resolved, but the backlash has nonetheless resulted in the game being hit with an “Overwhelmingly Negative” user rating on Steam, with only 18 percent of the 3,000-plus user ratings on the platform being positive at the time of writing.

All of that is, unsurprisingly, being reflected in the game’s player numbers on the platform. As per SteamDB, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 has seen a peak of 24,863 concurrent players on Steam at the time of writing, which is a decent figure in isolation, but significantly lower than what 2020’s

Huddersfield Town 1 Leicester City 1: Spot-on Vardy earns a point for the Foxes

Jamie Vardy s penalty cancelled out a goal on his first Premier League start from Laurent Depoitre as Leicester City earned a battling 1-1 draw at Huddersfield Town.

Huddersfield had edged a first half that produced few moments of quality at the John Smith s Stadium and the match burst into life shortly after the break as Depoitre – who had made just one league substitute appearance this term – calmly slotted in a 46th-minute opener after outmuscling Harry Maguire.

But it proved a short-lived lead as four minutes later Vardy netted from the spot for the second consecutive week after Andy King was crudely felled by Chris Lowe.

Huddersfield looked the most likely to grab a winner thereafter and will feel aggrieved that Elias Kachunga saw a goal ruled out just …

Arteta: Pepe red card unacceptable

Mikel Arteta said there was no excuse for Nicolas Pepe s unacceptable red card and admitted Arsenal s lack of goals is a concern after they clung on for a 0-0 draw at Leeds United. 

Winger Pepe was given his marching orders early in the second half at Elland Road on Sunday for headbutting Ezgjan Alioski off the ball. 

Pepe s dismissal was the fifth red Arsenal have been shown in the Premier League since Arteta took charge in December 2019, at least two more than any other club. 

Leeds struck the woodwork three times and Bernd Leno produced a string of superb saves as the Gunners held on for a point which leaves them 11th in the table. 

Arteta was not impressed with Pepe, whose contact with Alioski saw him sent off once referee Anthony T…

Prediction: Italy vs Russia

1st June 2012

Italy’s Euro 2012 preparations were dented by the cancellation of the friendly game against Luxembourg, and now the match against Russia will be Azzurri’s first and final test before the start of the European Championship. Dick Advocaat’s side shared spoils with both Uruguay and Lithuania, but a win at Stadion Letzigrund in Zurich would be a great way to finish the first phase of their preparations.

Cesare Prandelli’s Italy looked really good in the Euro 2012 qualifiers and they had no problems qualifying for the final tournament, but they have since encountered numerous problems. The Calcioscommesse match-fixing scandal came at the worst possible time as the squad were starting their preparations for the European Championship and we have yet to se…

Turan eyes Premier League switch – agent

Arda Turan has set his sights on a move to the Premier League despite interest from Paris-Saint Germain, the Atletico Madrid midfielder s agent has revealed.

The Turkey international has been a key player for Diego Simeone s side, but his representative  Ahmet Bulut says the player is ready to turn his back on the club.

Manchester United, Liverpool and PSG have all been linked with a move for the  28-year-old, and Bulut confirmed talks had taken place with a number of sides.

He [Turan] intends to leave Spain this summer, he told AS. He is planning on leaving Spain this summer. He would like to play in the Premier League, this is the path he would like to see his career take

He added: His departure from Atletico won t be easy due to his 41million euro…

Locatelli: Juventus move a dream come true

Manuel Locatelli has described his move to Juventus as a dream come true and has thanked Sassuolo for giving him a platform to showcase his talents.

The 23-year-old, one of the stars of Italy s successful Euro 2020 campaign, completed a switch to the Allianz Stadium on Wednesday in a deal worth €25million plus add-ons.

Following weeks of speculation linking him with a switch to the Turin giants, as well as other European clubs, Locatelli put pen to paper on a two-year loan with an obligation to buy.

It s a dream come true, he told Juventus TV after finalising the transfer. It is the dream of a child who worked so hard, that has given everything on the pitch.

I arrive at Juve with the desire to take to the field for the fans and can t wait to get onto…
