Manchester City are already looking ahead to the January window and appear primed to commence talks with a prime target to strengthen their forward line.

Manchester City prepare to face Manchester United in derby clash

Despite their dominance in the fixture since 2010, Manchester City take on Manchester United this Sunday in a match that Pep Guardiola will be hoping to see a vast improvement from his side in following a poor Premier League start.

The Citizens’ opening day victory against Wolverhampton Wanderers delivered some early promise for supporters to work with, but back-to-back defeats against Tottenham Hotspur and Brighton & Hove Albion have left the club in an unusual position of 13th.

In what could be a potential baptism of fire for Gianluigi Donnarumma, the Italy international has signalled his excitement to work under Guardiola and outlined his hopes to be a major part of future success at the Etihad Stadium.

“I think his history speaks for itself. The fact that he wanted me here is a reason to be proud of. It’s an indescribable emotion. Being coached by him I think is the best for a football player.

“I can’t wait to follow him and take to the pitch with him. I’m sure he will help me a lot and we will do great things together, this season as well as in the following years. As we said, it’s been an era of unbelievable success here.”

Looking ahead, January could be a big month at the club and Manchester City are reportedly plotting a mid-season move for Real Madrid attacker Rodrygo, though he isn’t the only high-profile star they are considering to add some inspiration to their forward line.

Manchester City preparing bid to sign Bradley Barcola

According to reports in Spain, Manchester City are set to commence talks as they prepare to bid for Bradley Barcola in January, who has been identified as a target due to uncertainty over Savinho’s future at the Sky Blues.

Establishing himself as a key figure at Paris Saint-Germain, the France international is said to be valued at around £87 million and has registered 27 goals and 31 assists in 107 appearances across all competitions.

The report states Guardiola thinks Barcola could be key in the second half of the season alongside Erling Haaland, Phil Foden, and Jeremy Doku.

Dubbed “one of the best dribblers in Europe” by Luis Enrique, he has already put that to the test this campaign, evading his marker four times and creating six chances in Ligue 1, per Fotmob.

Guardiola sees the arrival of Barcola as a priority to strengthen his frontline, which already includes the likes of Erling Haaland, Phil Foden and Oscar Bobb and his versatility on both flanks is something that he feels would offer balance in the long-term.

Manchester City have enacted a notable squad refresh this summer and being able to secure another talented star with a high level of pedrigree would be a statement to their competitors across Europe.

Two teams who have dished out many classics face off with several subplots to look out for – as long as rain stays away

The Varun + Narine spin test awaits Kohli

Big pictureFor the first time since they played the first game of the IPL Kolkata Knight Riders and Royal Challengers Bengaluru will start the season. Something special was born that night, 17 years ago. A thirst trap.A thousand games have come and gone and the fans just can’t get enough. Grounds fill up quicker than an international match (Eden’s been sold out). The trophy’s been taken on tour. Players’ arrivals are being clipped out like movie trailers. Virat Kohli charms 29.1 million souls just by bouncing a ball on his bat. The only thing that has grown as rapidly as the IPL is the people’s appetite for its singular brand of superstars and mayhem.KKR and RCB have had some thrilling encounters. There was a one-run victory just last year. And they’ve propelled this league, and by extension T20 cricket, forward in various ways. Sunil Narine taught the value of opening batters not valuing their wicket. AB de Villiers pointed out that runs can be scored behind the wicket with the same consistency as those in front of it. Andre Russell has been conducting experiments to see if he can hit a ball into outer space for some time now.Related

All we have to do is just sit back and watch. (And hope the rain stays away.)Next three fixturesKKR go on a trip to Guwahati and Mumbai to face Rajasthan Royals and Mumbai Indians before returning home to host Sunrisers Hyderabad.RCB have a five-day gap before their second game against Chennai Super Kings. Then they go up against Gujarat Titans. That’s a lot of high-quality spin for their batters to deal with to begin the season. But once they’re through, they’ll find themselves at the Wankhede and there’s always runs to be had there.New loyaltiesPhil Salt was KKR’s second-highest run-scorer in 2024 and he made those 435 runs at a strike rate of 182. His proclivity to hit the boundary first and ask questions later was an important point of difference for a side that scored its runs quicker than anybody else. Salt’s gifts are with RCB now.1:12

Cricinformed: Patidar, a menace for spinners

Team news & likely XIIsKKR might not mind losing one half of the opening combination that worked so well last time around considering they were able to bring in a former IPL winner in Quinton de Kock to take over. They will want him to improve on his record at Eden Gardens though (65 runs in six innings at a strike rate of 112). Spencer Johnson or Anrich Nortje will step in for Mitchell Starc, whom the franchise has let go.Kolkata Knight Riders (probable): 1 Sunil Narine, 2 Quinton de Kock (wk), 3 Ajinkya Rahane (capt) 4 Angkrish Raghuvanshi, 5 Venkatesh Iyer, 6 Rinku Singh, 7 Andre Russell, 8 Ramandeep Singh, 9 Harshit Rana, 10 Varun Chakaravarthy, 11 Spencer Johnson/Anrich Nortje, 12 Vaibhav AroraRCB have armed themselves with a long batting line-up, which should give them the tools they need to take all the risks they want even against a good bowling attack like KKR. However, their new spinner Suyash Sharma could be a doubt to face his former franchise as he is returning from a long rehab following a groin injury.Royal Challengers Bengaluru (probable): 1 Phil Salt, 2 Virat Kohli, 3 Devdutt Padikkal, 4 Rajat Patidar (capt), 5 Liam Livingstone, 6 Jitesh Sharma (wk), 7 Tim David, 8 Krunal Pandya, 9 Bhuvneshwar Kumar, 10 Josh Hazlewood, 11 Yash Dayal, 12 Swapnil Singh/Mohit Rathee/Rasikh SalamBig questionHave RCB made the right choice in elevating Rajat Patidar to the captaincy? They are yet to win an IPL title and the pressure of that now falls squarely on the shoulders of a man who is a fringe player for India and who only came into the franchise in 2021. The people who know him best, though, suggest he will be more than up for the challenge.In the spotlight: Rinku Singh and Virat KohliIndia have reached new levels of T20 batting since winning the world title. They almost made 300 once, an innings that ended with Rinku Singh sending the last ball for six. He was overlooked for the World Cup but has played 18 of 20 matches since. The IPL was the tournament that put Rinku on the map. What has he got cooking this season?Until IPL 2024, Virat Kohli tended to play out Varun Chakravarthy and Narine and look for his runs elsewhere. But last year, he decided to take them down. His strike rate against the two KKR mystery spinners went up from 98.56 to 166.66. Although it was only a small sample size (18 balls in one match), it signalled a change in Kohli’s outlook. He was willing to take more risks. Will that continue this time around too?1:59

Cricinformed: What makes Narine a six-hitting machine?

Key stats Varun and Narine’s eight overs will likely define the outcome of this game. Their strengths – Varun is a wicket-taker, he had a strike rate of 14.2 last season, and Narine is the banker, he gave away only 6.7 runs an over – line up against an RCB weakness. Five of their top seven, barring Patidar and Jitesh Sharma, have a strike rate below 140 against spin in T20 cricket since 2024. In Liam Livingstone (107) and Tim David’s (106) cases, it’s barely a run a ball. Since top-scoring for KKR in IPL 2024, Narine is averaging 9.05 as a batter across 20 innings with a highest score of 38. Will that prompt a change in the batting order? It’s unlikely, but they do have options. Ajinkya Rahane, their new captain, for example, enjoys batting in the powerplay. Patidar’s elevation to RCB captaincy is based on the value he brought to the team as a middle-overs (7-16) hitter. He scored over 300 runs in this phase last year, at a strike rate of 180.68. His strike rate against spin was even higher (197.24). Although RCB have lost Mohammed Siraj, they’ve brought in the IPL’s highest wicket-taker in the powerplay – Bhuvneshwar Kumar with 71. They also have Josh Hazlewood, who has done well in every phase of play in this tournament (14 wickets at an economy rate of 7.4 in the powerplay, eight at 7.7 in the middle and 13 at 10 in the death).Pitch & conditionsIPL 2024 set a new benchmark for run-scoring and Eden Gardens played a part in that. The conditions there were so conducive to batting that there were six totals of 200 or more, including a successful chase of 262. But putting a dampener on all that fun is a poor weather forecast for the game on Saturday. A steady drizzle on Friday evening brought about an early end to the team’s practice session. The practice began as scheduled at 5pm, but rain set in around 6pm, cutting short the prep.

O Santos recebeu a punição pela confusão gerada na partida contra o Corinthians, pelo Brasileirão. O Superior Tribunal de Justiça Desportiva (STJD) optou por punir o Peixe com 8 jogos com portões fechados e perda de mando de campo, ou seja, o clube terá que atuar sem torcida e longe da Vila Belmiro.

A medida foi tomada após a equipe ser julgada por infração no Artigo 213 do Código Brasileiro de Justiça Desportiva (CBJD). Além disso, o Alvinegro Praiano também terá que arcar com uma multa no valor de R$ 80 mil.

+ Torcedor do Santos, ajude a escolher o nome da área dedicada ao seu time no Lance!

A punição não valerá para o duelo diante do Goiás e o duelo acontecerá na Vila Belmiro, pois o confronto está próximo e será disputado no próximo domingo (9). Mesmo assim, o embate contra o Esmeraldino segue sem público devido a punição preventiva.

De acordo com o tribunal, o compromisso contra o Flamengo já contabilizou. O Peixe cumprirá a punição até o jogo contra o RB Bragantino e já poderá contar com seu torcedor na Vila Belmiro diante do Coritiba, no dia 21 de outubro.

Como não possuirá o mando de campo, o time da Vila Belmiro terá que jogar a 150 km de distância de sua casa. Portanto, o clube não conseguirá atuar na baixada santista, na capital e na grande São Paulo. Se quiser jogar dentro do estado, o time terá que procurar algum estádio do interior paulista.

O Santos ainda pode recorrer da decisão e, segundo o advogado do Peixe que estava presente no julgamento, o clube deve realizar o recurso.

O QUE ACONTECEU NO DIA

Com o resultado negativo encaminhado no clássico contra o Corinthians, gritos contra o elenco, o ex-técnico Odair Hellmann e o presidente Andres Rueda começaram a ecoar no estádio, junto de bombas e artefatos pirotécnicos que foram arremessados no gramado a partir dos 40 minutos do segundo tempo.

Enquanto acontecia a confusão dentro do estádio, e os atletas eram escoltados para irem ao vestiário, a polícia e torcedores santistas entravam em confronto nos arredores do local.

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has told his players to bring the aggression to their latest attempt to ruffle the feathers of Premier League title contenders Arsenal.

The Gunners finished as runners-up to Liverpool last season and currently lead the pack chasing the champions this time around.

However, they lost to the Magpies on three occasions last season, including both legs of the Carabao Cup semi-final, and have not scored a single goal in their last three visits to St James’ Park with Howe’s men having turned up the heat to get the better of them.

Asked about that edge they appear to have against Mikel Arteta’s side, their 47-year-old head coach said: “I think we play better when there is that edge in our game. Many times, I say that to the players themselves.

“If we’re not in that sweet spot of aggression and competitiveness, we don’t play the same way. I think we have players that really respond to that type of game.

“Of course there’s a balance depending on what style of game we’re in. I’d like to think we can navigate our way through a game and utilise all the skills we have in our psychological framework to help us win.”

Newcastle’s start to the season has been hampered by the Alexander Isak saga and while they have largely played well, results have not necessarily followed.

Their recent record against Arsenal – they have won four of the last six encounters in all competitions – is a source of satisfaction but Howe knows it will count for little once the first whistle sounds.

He said: “You don’t think about that going into the game, you think, ‘This is a fresh game and a fresh opportunity to impress’, so we’ve always had that line that you draw under the past.

“The past isn’t relevant, but you need to take whatever confidence you can positively and take that with you, so we’ll look to do that. But this is a fresh game and Arsenal are a new team.”

Howe will celebrate four years at St James’ in November, and a great deal has changed since he took to the dugout for the first time against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium – he had been prevented from doing so for Brentford’s visit to Tyneside a week earlier by Covid-19 – and presided over a 2-0 defeat.

He said: “That was a proud day because it was my first day in the dugout, but it was a tough day as well and it, I think looking back, paved the way for how tough it was going to be to stay in the league because at that stage, we were a long way from the team that we are today.

“I think we’ve come a long way in a relatively short period of time, although four years in footballing terms is a lifetime, really. But we’re still here and we’re still fighting.”

علق ييس توروب مدرب فريق الكرة بالنادي الأهلي، على الفوز أمام منافسه الاتحاد السكندري، بهدفين لهدف في المباراة التي جمعت بينهما ضمن لقاءات الدوري المصري.

وقال توروب في المؤتمر الصحفي عقب اللقاء: “أشكر الجماهير على تحيتهم لي في مباراة اليوم، بالنسبة لي أول 45 أو 60 دقيقة كانت جيدة، ولكن بعد تقدمنا بهدفين منحنا المنافس الفرصة للعودة مرة أخرى، ونحتاج أن نطور الفريق وكل لاعب أيضًا”.

وتابع: “لست راضيًا عن الأداء وأحتاج العمل على تطوير الفريق، ولكن الهدف من كرة القدم دائمًا هو الفوز، نلعب مباراة كل 3 أيام وهذا يمثل ضغطًا كبيرًا علينا، نقوم بعمل استشفاء وبعدها نتدرب ونلعب ثم نعمل على تطوير الفريق واللاعبين ومعالجة الأخطاء”.

وكشف: “هذه أول مرة أكون في استاد القاهرة، سعيد أنني المدير الفني للأهلي وسعيد أيضًا لتحقيق الفوز، وفخور جدًا بأنني جزء من كيان الأهلي”.

وبخصوص بصمته على الأداء، أكمل: “هذه ثاني مباراة لي مع الفريق، ولكن بالنسبة لي، التحكم في المباراة ومحاولة تضييق المساحات أعجبني أول 60 دقيقة في اللقاء، ولكن الباقي سنعمل عليه مرة أخرى”.

وأردف: “في كرة القدم الهجوم يقودك للفوز، لكن الدفاع الجيد يمنحك بطولات، مثلما يحتاج الفريق لإحراز أهداف يحتاج أيضًا أن يدافع جيدًا جدًا، الفريق بالنسبة لي وحدة واحدة، ليس حارس مرمى وحده أو خط دفاعه وحده، وقت الفوز نفوز سويًا وحال الخسارة نخسر جميعًا”.

وواصل: “أصعب شيء في كرة القدم هو تسجيل الأهداف، لدينا لاعبين مثلا زيزو وبن شرقي يستطيعان فعل هذا، ولا أظن أن كل اللاعبين نفذوا خطتي 100%، ولكني أمنحهم الفرصة دائمًا، هم نفذوا جزءًا كبيرًا من التعليمات”.

واختتم: “شاهدت مباريات كثيرة للأهلي وتعرفت على معظم اللاعبين وحاليًا أعقد معهم جلسات فردية من أجل معرفة شخصية كل لاعب وهذا مهم جدًا”.

Captain’s double-strike puts hosts on the cusp of their first win of the season after posting 470

ECB Reporters Network supported by Rothesay20-Apr-2025

Toby Roland-Jones struck twice in as many deliveries to boost Middlesex’s push for a first Rothesay County Championship victory of the season against Glamorgan at Lord’s.Trailing by 271, the visitors responded with an opening stand of 93 between Zain ul Hassan and Eddie Byrom, but were pegged back to 148 for 5 when Roland-Jones bowled Colin Ingram and Ben Kellaway with successive balls.However, Kiran Carlson’s defiant unbeaten 54 maintained Glamorgan’s hopes of staving off defeat, guiding his side to 186 for five – a deficit of 85 – at stumps.Middlesex had earlier declared on 470 for 9, although both Leus du Plooy and Ben Geddes missed out on centuries, falling to Kellaway for 89 and 83 respectively as the Glamorgan off-spinner finished with 4 for 61.Du Plooy, who resumed 15 short of a first ton of the campaign, added just another four to his overnight tally before being undone by a ball from Kellaway that pitched and turned to clip his off stump.Geddes was the more fluent of the pair towards the end of their fifth-wicket stand of 131, slashing Timm van der Gugten twice to the third man fence as he advanced to within sight of his maiden century in Middlesex colours.But Geddes became stuck in a rut, surrendering his wicket to Kellaway with a loose drive that sailed straight to short midwicket before Jack Davies, slog-sweeping the spinner, picked out Byrom diving to his left.Roland-Jones restored some momentum to the innings with a pugnacious 31 from 27 balls, launching Kellaway for a straight six and clubbing Ned Leonard for a trio of boundaries in his first over of the morning.Leonard had the final say by collecting Roland-Jones’ wicket, with Chris Cooke soaring to his right for an outstanding one-handed catch off the outside edge, then adding a stumping to dismiss Zafar Gohar in Kellaway’s next over.However, there was to be no five-wicket haul for Kellaway, bowling unchanged from the Nursery End, as Middlesex declared following a few lively blows by Dane Paterson in order to put their opponents in again before lunch.While the seamers beat the bat several times on either side of the interval, they could not find a way through – although there was a let-off for Byrom with five to his name, steering Roland-Jones to second slip only for the chance to go begging.Byrom capitalised, dispatching successive Ryan Higgins deliveries to the leg-side rope and pummelling a Henry Brookes half-volley through the covers for four more while his partner also found ways to keep the scoreboard moving along.With half-centuries firmly in their sights, though, the opening pair departed in successive overs as Byrom top-edged a sweep off Gohar to backward square and Higgins, who had just switched ends, had ul-Hassan caught behind.That double success galvanised the home side, who struck again shortly after tea when Paterson nipped a ball away to pin Sam Northeast leg before – although height could well have saved the Glamorgan captain on another day.Paterson’s swing continued to cause problems for the batters, with Ingram very much in survival mode and Carlson edging a ball that dropped fractionally short of slip’s outstretched hands.But the Glamorgan pair added 40 before Roland-Jones brought himself back on to break the partnership, knocking back Ingram’s off stump and then dismissing Kellaway, who played on first ball.Carlson continued the battle, bringing up his half-century from 84 deliveries, while Cooke remained alongside him on 16 when deteriorating light prompted the umpires to halt play five overs before the scheduled close.

O Palmeiras tem se notabilizado por ser uma base vencedora nos últimos anos, mas também tem revelado joias atrás de joias em sua formação. Depois de Endrick, Luis Guilherme e Estevão, o próximo da lista parece ser Erick Belé, jogador do sub-17, que tem se destacado na categoria e recentemente assinou seu primeiro contrato profissional. Com inspiração em Messi e em Ronaldinho, ele projeta seu futuro no time principal, mas antes quer cumprir todas as etapas que forem necessárias.

Aos 16 anos, Erick chegou ao Palmeiras em 2018, quando tinha apenas 11. Assim, já são cinco anos vivendo um sonho, que pode ficar ainda maior, mas por enquanto os objetivos ficam nas conquistas com a base, como a Copa do Brasil sub-17, que o Verdão ganhou em junho.

– Estar no palmeiras já é um sonho, algo que estou realizando todos os dias. Mas depois de ganhar mais títulos aqui na base, quero jogar no profissional. Então, todos dias planto esse sonho para que ele possa se concretizar – disse o meia-atacante em entrevista ao Lance!

Em 2022, atuando pelo sub-15, Erick já havia se destacado com 19 gols em 26 jogos. Agora, no sub-17, ele mostrou que segue sendo goleador com 13 gols em 23 partidas. Em um duelo com o Araçatuba, pelo Paulistão, ele entrou no fim do primeiro tempo, fez três gols e ainda deu duas assistências na goleada por 5 a 0. E olha que ainda tem muita coisa para rolar em 2023. Os objetivos são bem claros:

– Conquistar o Paulista e o Brasileirão, fazer bons jogos e continuar evoluindo. Sei que ainda sou muito jovem e todos esses processos são fundamentais para crescer.

Para o torcedor do Palmeiras que não costuma acompanhar partidas das categorias de base, Eirck Belé contou como é o seu estilo de jogo e revelou sua inspiração em dois grandes ídolos mundiais.

– Sou um meia que pisa muito na área, de movimentação e gosto de fazer gols. Dentro de campo eu me inspiro muito no Ronaldinho Gaúcho e no Messi. Gosto de ver vídeos deles sempre que possível.

Com essas credenciais, a participação na Copinha de 2024, que é um torneio sub-20, parece ser um caminho natural. No entanto, novamente, Erick prefere seguir os processos sem atropelar etapas.

– Eu tento sempre pensar no agora, até porque ainda sou muito jovem. Procuro dar meu melhor agora para que tudo aconteça naturalmente. Jogar a Copinha é sim um sonho e pretendo realizar o quanto antes.

Confira outros trechos da entrevista de Erick Belé:

Você é considerado uma das novas grandes joias do Palmeiras na base. Como tem sido lidar com status?
Para mim está sendo bem tranquilo. Prefiro não me apegar a isso, deixo mais para as pessoas de fora e procuro focar no meu trabalho e na evolução na base.

Depois de Endrick, Luis Guilherme e o próprio Estevão, fica uma responsabilidade maior para vocês do sub-17 em subir para o profissional?
Acredito que não. Tento pensar em fazer meu melhor no sub-17 e respeitar os processos. Sei que tudo tem seu tempo. O fato desses atletas terem subido jovem acabam nos motivando e mostram que o Palmeiras vai dar espaço e apostar na base cada vez mais, o que é bom para todos.

Tem contato com o pessoal que tem subido para o profissional? Eles te dão algum conselho?
Sim, sempre que possível converso com os meninos que já subiram ou treinaram lá pra saber como é. Eles passam algumas coisas, é uma etapa importante e sei que em breve vou viver essa experiência também.

Santos e WTorre assinarão contrato sobre a construção da nova Vila Belmiro nos próximos dias. A tendência é que a situação seja sacramentada bem antes do fim do ano, quando termina o mandato do presidente Andres Rueda.

As partes se reuniram na tarde desta quarta-feira (16), e a conversa foi considerada positiva, como vinha sendo nos últimos meses. Ainda restam pequenas arestas a serem aparadas no contrato, que ainda não é o definitivo.

+ Cupom LANCEFUT com 10% OFF para os fanáticos por esporte em compras acima de R$299,90

Ainda não há uma data exata para o início das obras. Porém, o clube do litoral paulista trabalha com a projeção de que elas comecem no primeiro semestre de 2024. Inicialmente, Rueda desejava que a construção tivesse o pontapé inicial na reta final de seu mandato.

O NOVO ESTÁDIO E ONDE O SANTOS JOGARÁ DURANTE AS OBRAS

A nova Vila Belmiro terá capacidade para receber em torno de 30.108 pessoas. Isso é praticamente o dobro da realidade atual, pois o estádio conta com 16.068 lugares.

O acordo entre Santos e WTorre é semelhante ao do Palmeiras com a empresa, que administra o Allianz Parque, casa palestrina. O Peixe mantém posse do terreno e não arca com a reforma. Em contrapartida, a corporação do setor imobiliário fica com a concessão e se torna responsável pela administração do estádio durante 30 anos. É estimado que a WTorre gaste cerca de R$ 300 milhões com o projeto.

As obras demorariam cerca de dois anos para serem concluídas. Neste período, a ideia do Peixe é utilizar como casa provisória o Canindé, caso o estádio tenha as condições estruturais necessárias. Outra possibilidade é o novo Pacaembu, que tem previsão para ser reinaugurado em 2024. Essa é a tendência, mas o martelo ainda não está batido.

Compared to some in the division, Leeds United are yet to be completely ravaged by injuries so far this season. That said, they have suffered from some absences here and there.

Lucas Perri has been out of Daniel Farke’s plans since featuring against Newcastle United through injury, but this setback hasn’t derailed the Whites too much, with Karl Darlow taking over in goal, resulting in a win and a draw being clinched.

Moreover, Jayden Bogle has managed to wriggle free of any injury difficulties – with Farke worrying he might have missed the AFC Bournemouth draw – only for the former Sheffield United man to win seven ground duels versus their Premier League foes.

Leeds are well equipped to deal with injury struggles; therefore, with Daniel James, another injury-prone figure, now taking up room in the Elland Road treatment room.

The latest on Dan James' injury setback

It’s well-known by this point that the Welshman has routinely looked out of his depth in the Premier League, whether that be with Leeds or at other clubs.

Glancing at his numbers in the top-flight, and then comparing them to his Championship statistics, it’s really night and day between the two of them.

Once labelled an “exceptional” talent by ex-Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, he has struggled to ever look Premier League-ready.

Indeed, in the EFL’s elite division to date, the 27-year-old attacker has a bumper 29 goals and 25 assists next to his name, notably finding his way into the PFA Team of the Season for 2024/25.

On the contrary, in the league above, it’s just 12 goals and 13 assists to shout about, with his sketchy injury record also a major cause for concern for the number seven when it comes to regular minutes this season.

Worries emerged earlier this week that the winger had suffered an ACL injury and while the full extent of his recently obtained ankle injury is yet to be fully revealed, it is alleged that he could only miss up to six weeks of action, having also sat out a total of ten games last campaign during Leeds’ promotion hunt due to a hamstring issue.

Despite the Welshman sliding down the pecking order somewhat, he will still be fondly remembered for his key role last season as promotion was achieved, despite said setbacks.

Yet, it’s clear now, from Leeds’ summer business, that upgrades have been purchased all over the pitch to help the top-flight newcomers adjust to the testing Premier League, with one signing already looking a better talent than James at the elite level.

Chalkboard

Football FanCast’s Chalkboard series presents a tactical discussion from around the global game.

Expand Collapse The "electric" star who is better than James

Both of Leeds’ early wins in the Premier League this season have been picked up courtesy of a whole host of Farke’s new purchases shining bright.

On the opening day, it was Lukas Nmecha – who joined from Wolfsburg this summer – who stole the headlines when converting a late penalty to hand his new employers a 1-0 win over Everton.

Then, it was the turn of Noah Okafor, who would seal a convincing 3-1 victory on the road against Wolverhampton Wanderers, after leaving AC Milan behind for England late into the hectic transfer window.

Unlike James, who relocated to Elland Road nervously after a stop-start time at the Red Devils, Okafor has arrived in England with his confidence full to the brim.

Indeed, he caused defences in the Austrian Bundesliga, Serie A, and the Swiss Super League all sorts of bother, before another top-flight adventure opened up for him.

Amazingly, playing for the likes of RB Salzburg, Milan, and Basel, Okafor notched up a blistering 81 goal contributions, which blows James’ own lacklustre numbers in the Premier League – another tough top-flight division in Europe – out of the water.

Consequently, Leeds might no longer feel a need to persist with James, even with the knowledge that he can bamboozle defences with his pace and skill on his day, when they have a similar winger who is proven at the very top in their fresh number 19.

It’s safe to say that the Swiss is also bamboozling defences in England, evoking memories of a tricky Raphinha when he once plied his trade at Elland Road. Indeed, to rubber-stamp that comparison, Okafor notably made a ridiculous 12 dribbles in the opening 45 minutes of that game with Wolves, the most by any player in the first half of a Premier League game since Boxing Day 2019, when Wilfried Zaha achieved 13 vs West Ham.

James will, no doubt, be given his moment in the Premier League spotlight again when he wriggles free of his latest injury setback.

But, with faces such as the “electric” Okafor already impressing – as he was once labelled by scout Jacek Kulig – Farke won’t feel he has to show blind loyalty to his old guard going forward.

Leeds must regret cashing in on this star who was the original Gabriel Gudmundsson at Elland Road.
