Yves Bissouma and Rodrigo Bentancur: An unlikely partnership with two unlikely redemption arcs?
Having had clouds hanging over their heads at the beginning of the season, two of Tottenham Hotspur’s senior players are now expected to start against Manchester United in the Europa League final on Wednesday evening.Last summer, Rodrigo Bentancur was being investigated by the Football Association for allegedly making a racist comment about his team-mate Son Heung-min while video footage on social media appeared to show Yves Bissouma inhaling nitrous oxide, which is also known as NOS, laughing gas or hippie crack.AdvertisementSpurs suspended Bissouma for the opening game of the season, a 1-1 draw with Leicester City, and Bentancur received a seven-game ban from the FA in November after an independent regulatory commission found the Uruguay international guilty of an aggravated breach of their rules for his remarks about Son.They have had mixed fortunes since then. Bentancur and Bissouma play in […]
Dear Goodison, farewell and thank you
Everton have played at Goodison Park since 1892, but the 2-0 victory over Southampton brought the curtain down on Premier League action.A move to a new stadium on Liverpool’s waterfront will follow. To mark the final few weeks, The Athletic has produced a series of articles — and a special podcast.You can read the other pieces here and listen to the podcast below.They lined the streets from before 9am, primed for one last emotional farewell. Some scrambled up walls, others in vans and takeaways, to find space, soak up the atmosphere and catch a view of their heroes.Goodison Park had witnessed similar scenes in recent years, as fans tried to help Everton stave off relegation but this time, the tone was different.Emotional, yes. But more than anything, this was a celebration, a reminder of what the club’s home of 133 years […]
What did Bernardo Silva mean by the Manchester City ‘real ones’?
Bernardo Silva’s comments after Manchester City’s FA Cup final defeat on Saturday raised a few eyebrows and gave an insight into where things have gone wrong for them this season.It was another difficult weekend for City, beaten 1-0 by Crystal Palace at Wembley, towards the end of a desperately disappointing campaign and before what will be a decisive summer.AdvertisementBernardo has been linked with a return to his boyhood club Benfica in the coming transfer window, but he spoke post-match like somebody who intends to stay at City and help put them back on top.Having already said things need to change at the club and then refusing to be drawn any further — leaving it for “the big bosses to decide” — he was asked whether a poor season like this can help focus minds and re-energise a team.“Yeah, you learn […]
Mets defensive lapses starting to add up: ‘We’re not finishing plays’
NEW YORK — With the infield drawn in, New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso fielded the groundball cleanly near the edge of the grass. He set his feet, readied to make a throw toward home plate. But, as he’d explain later, he never got his fingers on top of the baseball properly and sailed it well wide with no chance whatsoever.AdvertisementWith one out in the eighth inning, speedy New York Yankees outfielder Jasson Dominguez got a good jump from third base, went on contact and scored easily for the lead.“From my view, a good throw would’ve had him,” Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said.The Yankees added five more runs in the inning and beat the Mets 8-2 on Sunday night to take two out of three games in this season’s first Subway Series.“I messed it up,” Alonso said. “I just […]
Aaron Rodgers may have avoided media circus by delaying Steelers decision
With the start of NFL OTAs rapidly approaching, Aaron Rodgers still remains unsigned. The four-time MVP quarterback has fielded interest from multiple teams this offseason, but with time ticking, it appears the Pittsburgh Steelers are the last legitimate contender left standing in the Rodgers sweepstakes.Amid growing speculation around his next move, former NFL quarterback Chris Simms offered an intriguing theory: Rodgers may be purposely taking his time to avoid becoming the centerpiece of a media frenzy, especially if he were to join a storied franchise like Pittsburgh."Maybe he didn't want that crap," Simms said on NBC Sports. "Maybe he's like, 'I don't want to be on the Chiefs' schedule and be a traveling road show.'"Rodgers has long been known to take unconventional approaches during the offseason, and this delay might be more calculated than fans assume.The Pros and Cons of […]
Another West Ham defeat leaves fans with little optimism for next season: ‘It looks bleak’
Thousands descended on east London to participate in the Hackney Half Marathon, while just a stone’s throw away at the London Stadium, Morgan Gibbs-White and Anthony Elanga were running circles around West Ham United’s defence.The Nottingham Forest duo were shining lights as their club pushes for Champions League qualification. During the 2-1 victory, West Ham endeavoured to keep a semblance of defensive calmness, but it proved futile, with Gibbs-White and Elanga tormenting them.AdvertisementThe England international pounced on Alphonse Areola’s misplaced pass for the opener, while Elanga assisted ex-West Ham transfer target Nikola Milenkovic after the hour mark. West Ham scored via Jarrod Bowen, but their late spirited fightback failed to yield a draw.“Credit to Forest, they are a strong outfit with some fantastic players,” said head coach Graham Potter. “Their (opening) goal was disappointing from our perspective. I think we […]
