Football: Sarri eyes win streak to avoid Chelsea axe

Football: Sarri eyes win streak to avoid Chelsea axe

LONDON • Maurizio Sarri insists he expects to avoid being sacked as Chelsea manager if his side can put together a sustained winning run.
Reports yesterday claimed Sarri will be axed if the Blues lose any of their next three matches.
Sarri faces a crucial seven days as Chelsea face Malmo in the second leg of their Europa League last-32 tie today, Manchester City in the League Cup final on Sunday and Tottenham in the Premier League next Wednesday.
Sarri said: "We need to win three, four matches in a row. It's the only solution... There isn't another way. We can only have good performances and results."
The 2-0 FA Cup defeat to Manchester United followed the 6-0 thrashing at Manchester City.
Angry Blues fans have demanded the 60-year-old's sacking and started calling for former Chelsea star Frank Lampard to replace him.
But Sarri says he has not spoken to owner Roman Abramovich or influential director Marina Granovskaia this week.
He said: "I have to think that I will be the manager of Chelsea for a long time, otherwise I cannot work. I am not sure (if I will be here for long), but I have to think this.
"Of course in this moment it's very difficult to think we're able to win three, four matches in a row. As you know very well in football everything can change in one day."
But the Italian still refuses to compromise on his possession-based playing style, ridiculed by supporters on Monday.
"The system is a false problem. I know very well that when we lose I have to put a striker on the pitch. When we win I have to put a defender on the pitch. But I want to see football in another way," he said.

Football: Super-sub Gray sends Watford into FA Cup semis

Football: Super-sub Gray sends Watford into FA Cup semis

LONDON (AFP) - Andre Gray came off the bench to fire Watford into the FA Cup semi-finals with the late winner in their 2-1 victory over Crystal Palace on Saturday (March 16).
Javi Gracia's side took the lead through Etienne Capoue's first half strike before Michy Batshuayi equalised for Palace after the interval.
That was the signal for Gracia to turn to Gray, who maintained his reputation as Watford's super-sub by grabbing the goal that avenged the Hornets' 2016 FA Cup semi-final defeat against Palace.
The former Burnley striker has now scored the winner as a substitute three times in recent weeks, having also netted Watford's decisive goal against Everton and Leicester.
Gray's latest heroics moved Watford closer to finally returning to the FA Cup final 35 years after they lost to Everton in their only other appearance.
"Obviously every player is disappointed if they don't start. There's two ways of going about it, you either sit there and sulk or you get on with it," Gray said.
"I've been on the bench quite a lot this season so I've got my mind round it now. I just have to come on and make a difference."
Gracia added: "When Andre Gray is on the pitch he is scoring a lot of important goals for us.
"To be able to enjoy a semi final at Wembley will be amazing."
Watford had won both Premier League meetings with Palace this season and Gracia's team went close early on when Gerard Deulofeu's strike drew a good stop from Vicente Guaita.

FATAL CONSEQUENCES


Despite that save, Guaita looked nervous on a windy afternoon and the Spanish keeper made a hash of dealing with a Watford corner before Palace managed to clear.
It was a mistake he repeated with fatal consequences as Watford took the lead in the 27th minute.
Flapping at a Jose Holebas corner, Guaita's weak punch failed to clear the danger and when the ball was diverted back to Capoue, the French midfielder slotted into the empty net from close-range.
Watford threatened a second goal when Deulofeu unleashed a rising shot moments later, but this time Guaita was up to the task.
Palace had laboured without Ivory Coast forward Wilfried Zaha, absent due to a calf strain, but they were more vibrant after the break and Heurelho Gomes had to keep out Max Meyer's diving header before Batshuayi fired just wide.
The visitors' pressure was rewarded in the 62nd minute when Gomes a risky pass to Adrian Mariappa.
Mariappa was far too slow to clear and on-loan Chelsea striker Batshuayi stole possession, advancing into the penalty area to drill a cool finish past Gomes.
Gracia responded by sending on Gray in the 77th minute and it proved an inspired move as he won it for Watford just two minutes after his introduction.
Roberto Pereyra was the catalyst with an incisive burst from midfield and the Argentine's perfectly-placed pass picked out Gray, who timed his run to poke a volley past Guaita from eight yards.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka should have forced extra-time when the ball fell to him after a Gomes mistake in stoppage-time, but the Palace defender blasted just wide.

Football: Huddersfield move closer to relegation, Burnley in trouble

Football: Huddersfield move closer to relegation, Burnley in trouble

LONDON (AFP) - Huddersfield slipped closer to Premier League relegation as the bottom club blew a two-goal lead in their 4-3 defeat at West Ham, while Burnley are in deep trouble after losing 2-1 against 10-man Leicester on Saturday (March 16).
Jan Siewert's side looked to have kept alive their faint hopes of beating the drop as they raced into a 3-1 lead in east London.
But a second-half collapse culminated in Javier Hernandez's last-gasp winner for West Ham, leaving Huddersfield 16 points from safety with only seven games remaining.
"For me it's hard to describe at the moment. I'm disappointed and to be honest I can't believe it," Siewert said.
"I have thousands of thoughts. I don't want to talk about the best performances. I want to win games."
Mark Noble put West Ham ahead with a 15th-minute penalty after 18-year-old Aaron Rowe, making his first professional start, brought down Manuel Lanzini.
Huddersfield were level just two minutes later when Juninho Bacuna headed in from Aaron Mooy's corner for the Terriers' first away league goal since Boxing Day.
Karlan Grant gave Huddersfield the lead with a close-range finish in the 30th minute and the January signing from Charlton scored again in the 65th minute with a fantastic 20-yard strike.
But Angelo Ogbonna reduced the deficit with 15 minutes left and Hernandez completed West Ham's gritty fightback with an 84th-minute header from Samir Nasri's cross.
Former Manchester United striker Hernandez wasn't finished yet and he struck again in the final seconds with a header from Felipe Anderson's cross.

DYCHE FRUSTRATED


At Turf Moor, Burnley's survival bid was dented as they were rocked by Leicester.
Leicester defender Harry Maguire was sent off in the fourth minute for a trip on Johann Berg Gudmundsson as the Burnley midfielder ran clear on goal.
It was the fastest Premier League red card in four years, but Leicester weren't fazed as James Maddison opened the scoring with a superb 33rd-minute free-kick.

 
 
Burnley's teenage forward Dwight McNeil equalised with a fine finish in the 38th minute.
But Leicester snatched the points in the 90th minute when defender Wes Morgan struck after Youri Tielemans' cross deflected into his path.
Burnley are one place and two points above the relegation zone, with third-bottom Cardiff holding a game in hand.
"It can play with you psychologically when someone gets sent off so early. We didn't get to grips with the game in the first half," frustrated Burnley boss Sean Dyche said.
"Our use of the ball wasn't good enough, we didn't create enough chances."
In the day's other game, Matt Ritchie's last-gasp equaliser rescued Newcastle in their 2-2 draw at Bournemouth.
Salomon Rondon blasted Newcastle into the lead with his 10th goal of the season, this one a powerful free-kick on the stroke of half-time.
However, Josh King equalised with 48th-minute penalty awarded for Federico Fernandez's foul on Nathan Ake.
King's second goal arrived in the 81st minute after good work from Dominic Solanke, but Ritchie had the last word with a fierce half-volley.
On Sunday, Liverpool can replace Manchester City on top of the table if they win at Fulham, while Chelsea look to improve their top four prospects at Everton.

Football: Klopp denies Liverpool's lighter schedule is title advantage

Football: Klopp denies Liverpool's lighter schedule is title advantage

LONDON (AFP) - Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp denied on Friday (Jan 11) that his Premier League leaders will have the upper hand over Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur in the title race despite a lighter schedule after crashing out of both domestic cup competitions.
City trail Klopp's men by four points, with Tottenham two points further back, but both of Liverpool's rivals are still involved in four competitions.
Klopp meanwhile made nine changes for Monday's 2-1 defeat at Wolves in the FA Cup, with his focus on ending the Reds' 29-year wait to win the title, and his team were knocked out of the League Cup by Chelsea back in September.
"There's no advantage. If you have all your players available, it's brilliant that you can always play them, it's really good," said Klopp ahead of Saturday's trip to Brighton.
"We have to use the time. You can do a lot of wrong things when you have a week to train, that's possible.
"We have to use the time and really be, week in and week out, in the best shape we can be."
Dejan Lovren was one of only two players Klopp retained against Wolves from a 2-1 defeat to City in their last Premier League outing, but the Croatian picked up a hamstring injury after just six minutes at Molineux.
Klopp now has a defensive crisis on his hands. Joe Gomez and Joel Matip have also been sidelined in recent weeks, but Matip may be fit in time to return against Brighton.
"It's quite special if you would bet on having three centre-halves injured in the same moment - you could win a lot of money for that because usually it doesn't happen.
"Here it happened, it was a bit of bad luck. That makes it quite a bit tricky."

LIVERPOOL INJURIES


Klopp reiterated his belief that Lovren's injury is a justification for why he was right to rest players such as Virgil van Dijk, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino against Wolves after a hectic fixture list over the festive season.
"We had to make changes for the Wolves game. The players we didn't line up in that game were either a little bit injured, or injured, or played all the games in December, plus the City game at the beginning of January.
"Bringing them again in that moment, as you saw with Dejan, who played pretty much all these games as well, is a risk - it's a proper risk."
Defeat at City on Jan 3 was Liverpool's first in the league this season and Firmino stressed the importance of bouncing back immediately at Brighton to not give champions City another chance to cut the gap when they host Wolves on Monday.
"That's what the Premier League is all about - it's intensely competitive. If the team at the top stutters, the second place will overtake them," the Brazilian told Liverpool's website.
"We know we can't go to sleep and lose silly points. We must maintain our focus until the end of the season."

Football: MP & Silva's Singapore office in provisional liquidation following London HQ's insolvency

Football: MP & Silva's Singapore office in provisional liquidation following London HQ's insolvency

SINGAPORE - The media agency that gave the Football Association of Singapore (FAS) its biggest-ever partnership deal - a $25 million, six-year exclusive rights agreement - in 2015, is set to wind up, with doubts now hanging over the matter of recovering some $3 million in unpaid rights fees.
MP & Silva (MPS) has witnessed its London headquarters declared insolvent by Britain's High Court of Justice, and its Singapore office is now set to follow on the same path.
On Nov 19, PricewaterhouseCoopers' (PwC) Goh Thien Phong and Chan Kheng Tek were appointed as provisional liquidators of MPS after the company decided that existing liabilities meant that it was unable to continue doing business.
The Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority's (Acra) website lists MPS' status as "in liquidation - creditors' voluntary winding up".
MPS' accounts have been frozen, its staff contracts terminated, and all its physical assets auctioned off for some $22,000. A visit to its Singapore headquarters at Infinite Studios, just off Portsdown Avenue on Friday, confirmed the fact: The MPS name on the wall was all that remained in what was an empty office.
A meeting for MPS' creditors was held on Dec 12 at PwC's offices, with the company's full statement of accounts presented. The Straits Times understands that representatives of the FAS were present at the meeting, in a bid to recover monies from MPS.
A former MPS employee who was present revealed that creditors were informed that not a single shareholder of the company turned up at an extraordinary general meeting scheduled earlier that day.
"We had to act in the best interests of the company as well as its creditors. We couldn't continue doing business - and paying salaries - when the company was pretty much stuck in a state where it couldn't really do business," he said, on condition of anonymity.

 
"It was inevitable that one of our creditors would file for liquidation like it happened in the UK."
MPS was founded in 2004 by Italian businessmen Riccardo Silva and Andrea Radrizzani, the owner of English Championship side Leeds United. Under their leadership, it became the biggest player in the global sports media rights market, holding the broadcast rights to major competitions such as the top English, German and Italian leagues, and Formula One.
The pair sold a 65 per cent stake to Chinese companies Everbright Securities and Beijing Baofeng Technology for US$1 billion (S$1.38 billion) two years ago.
Problems started to surface soon after.
MPS reportedly failed to make payments to several other creditors, including the English Premier League, Italian Serie A, and German Bundesliga.
On Dec 1, The Times of London reported that PwC was seeking a High Court order to appoint it as provisional liquidator in order to prevent a "scramble" for €4.32 million (S$6.75 million) in the bank accounts of MPS' Irish subsidiary, which reportedly owes €55.3 million to creditors.
Across the Causeway, MPS' 15-year, RM1.2 billion (S$395 million) deal with the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM), also signed in 2015, was been terminated and the matter is now under arbitration.
Its Singapore office also faced issues.
Sources revealed that MPS' group president and chief executive Seamus O'Brien, who joined only in January, left the organisation in August.
He was followed out the door by Wu Swee Sin, MPS' Asia-Pacific managing director, along with several other management-level staff, leaving what sources reveal was a skeleton crew of junior staff numbering fewer than 10.
The remaining staff had their hands tied because of the company's legal issues and are understood to have conducted little to no business over the last five months.
ST understands that remaining employees had their contracts terminated in mid-November without any guarantees of being fully paid for the one-month notice required before the termination of contracts. Staff were asked by liquidators to submit proof of what the company still owes to them, and have already provided the required documentation.
Staff are usually the first creditors paid when a company undergoes liquidation, but that can only happen after liquidators - in this case PwC - receive a court order to liquidate.

Youngest local SPL Coach, 33, unfazed

Youngest local SPL Coach, 33, unfazed

He earned the necessary certification to lead a professional local club six years ago. But the opportunity never came for Khidhir Khamis, until now.
The 33-year-old will take the reins of Balestier Khalsa for the upcoming Singapore Premier League (SPL) season, after Tigers coach Marko Kraljevic left two weeks ago to coach Malaysia Premier League side Kelantan.
This makes him the youngest Singaporean head coach appointment in the 24 years of the SPL and its predecessor, the S-League which started in 1996.
Five-time champions Tampines Rovers had announced in December that they intended to appoint Gavin Lee, 28, as head coach once he gains his 'A' licence, which he will attempt to earn this year. Until then, he cannot hold the title.
The youngest local before Khidhir was Shasi Kumar, who was a year older when he led Woodlands Wellington in 2010.
Khidhir, who previously coached age-group teams at Tanjong Pagar United and Geylang International - where he also had a stint as head of their youth programme - until 2013, is relishing the opportunity to return to elite football coaching.
He had applied for several posts but "the doors just did not open", said the Victoria School alumnus, who had been coaching at schools and private academies.
He is now relishing starting on "something new and exciting" with Balestier.
Khidhir received his Asian Football Confederation 'A' Licence - which is mandatory for locals to take charge of SPL clubs - in 2013 at the age of 27. At the time, he was said to be the youngest Asean coach to hold the standard.
Balestier chairman S. Thavaneson said that eight candidates had applied for the role, half of whom were foreigners. But he had no qualms picking a local rookie to replace Kraljevic, who had been the Tigers' coach since 2014, and led the club to a first Singapore Cup that year before being named the S-League's Coach of the Year.
"Our local coaches, I think, have over the years stepped up and been able to hold their own in the SPL," said Thavaneson, who is also one of four vice-presidents in the Football Association of Singapore.
"I think more young local coaches will make the grade, provided they are given that opportunity.
"We, the management of local clubs, must have that... trust in local coaches and help them develop. Because helping them develop helps develop Singapore football too."
Khidhir knows his age will raise eyebrows. After all, he is only a year older than Balestier's oldest player, goalkeeper and captain Zaiful Nizam.

RESPECT IS KEY
It's about how you manage the players. I've made it clear that... (they should) not cross the line between player and coach, even though we are about the same age.
KHIDHIR KHAMIS, Balestier Khalsa's 33-year-old coach, on the small age "gap" between him and his players.

"It's about how you manage the players," said Khidhir, with a cool smile. "I've made it clear that... (they should) not cross the line between player and coach, even though we are about the same age.
"And I think they are professional enough to manage and handle themselves in that sense."
Khidhir, who visited the famed French training centre Clairefontaine at his own expense in 2013, plans to leverage on technology for a "more visual" approach to transferring knowledge to players. He is also exploring the feasibility of filming training sessions.
With "nothing to lose" in his first major coaching stint, he is keen to build on the work Kraljevic had done - Balestier finished sixth in the nine-team SPL last season - and try get the Tigers playing a more expansive game, although he was not ready to make any predictions yet.
Borrowing Nelson Mandela's famous quote, Khidhir said: "As far as I see it, we'll go into matches and we're either going to win, or learn."

Football: Spurs win gives United more to be happy about than just David de Gea

Football: Spurs win gives United more to be happy about than just David de Gea

LONDON - It would be easy to simply file this one under "Games Manchester United Won Thanks To David de Gea".
And yet, while that particular cabinet must be bulging after the Spain goalkeeper's latest outstanding performance, the Red Devils' 1-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur at Wembley Stadium on Sunday (Jan 13) was by no means an injustice.
The travelling United faithful celebrated wildly in the stands at their corner of the stadium for some time after the majority of the 80,000 had exited and had every reason to be thrilled.
For it was the way they saw off Mauricio Pochettino's formidable Spurs side that mattered to them. They were gritty, opportunistic, confident.
Even when Spurs had stirred from their slumber - they did not register a single shot on target in the first half - and started testing de Gea, one effort after another, United's players did not panic.
Jesse Lingard shone brighter than his England teammate Dele Alli, Paul Pogba was a cocky, assured presence at the tip of United's midfield trident, and the duo of Ander Herrera and Nemanja Matic behind him, so often the target of fans ire during the Dark Mourinho Days, were excellent.
Centre-back Victor Lindelof, meanwhile, stuck to Spurs' chief goal-scorer Harry Kane like a leech, snapping away at his heels and giving him hardly any room in the penalty box.

 
 
Luke Shaw, Ashley Young and de Gea drew jeers and whistles from the home supporters for their time-wasting tactics in protecting their lead, and looked fully in control - something that rarely happened before Mourinho's sacking just before Christmas.
The swagger is back.
It should be noted, though, that the two teams had vastly different build-ups to Sunday's game.
United spent a week basking in the warmth with a training camp in Dubai, while Spurs negotiated a hard-earned 1-0 win over Chelsea in the League Cup semi-final.
This explained in part Spurs' slow start, and United's quickness of thought, which was highlighted by Pogba's superb pass to release Marcus Rashford, who raced past Jan Vertonghen to arrow a shot beyond Hugo Lloris just before half-time.
Much has been made of Spurs' title tilt - which now looks unlikely after two consecutive Premier League losses at home - but United exposed their shallow squad's inadequacies.
When Moussa Sissoko was forced off in the first half, they had no established central midfielder on the bench to come on for him. Eric Dier and Victor Wanyama are on the mend from injuries, while Mousa Dembele has started only seven games and is reportedly on the verge of a lucrative move to China.
Worse still, talisman Kane limped off the pitch after appearing to twist his ankle late on in the game. The team's second highest goal-getter? Asian Cup-bound Son.
Last week, Pochettino, who has been tipped as the leading contender for the permanent manager's job at United, spoke about Spurs having to "operate differently" if they are to take the next step and rub shoulders with the elite of European football. His words were taken as a call for more investment from Spurs, even if he downplayed his remarks later.
If the London club do not spend in the January transfer window, though, the lure of resources at Old Trafford in the summer, could be too much to turn down for Pochettino.

Football: Valencia to face Barca in Copa final after seeing off Betis

VALENCIA (REUTERS) - Valencia set up a Copa del Rey showdown with Barcelona as they reached the final for the first time in 11 years by beating Real Betis 1-0 at a bouncing Mestalla on Thursday (Feb 28) where a second-half Rodrigo Moreno strike gave them a 3-2 aggregate win.
Valencia, who lifted the trophy on their last appearance in the showpiece match in 2008, will meet 30-times winners Barca in the final on May 25 at Betis' Benito Villamarin stadium.
Marcelino's side fought back from two goals down to snatch a 2-2 draw in the first leg and a goalless home draw would have seen them through on away goals. They appeared set up to absorb the pressure, inviting Betis to have most of the possession.
The visitors had the better of the chances in a tight and tense first period and it took a strong hand from Valencia keeper Jaume Domenech to turn over a shot from Jese, while Betis defender Aissa Mandi headed narrowly wide following a corner.
Valencia showed more ambition after the interval and went ahead with a well worked move in the 56th minute which saw Kevin Gameiro race into the box and slide the ball across for Moreno to comfortably tuck it into the empty net from close range.
That meant Betis needed at least two goals to progress and, while they continued to monopolise the ball, Valencia controlled the space and rarely looked like letting their lead slip.
Barca, who have won the last four editions of the competition, beat Real Madrid 3-0 away on Wednesday for a 4-1 aggregate victory in the other semi-final.
