His court vision has not gone unnoticed by many. In a recent interview, Los Angeles Clippers’ GM Jerry West praised James’ determination and his work ethic in the game, “When ...

Opinion: Klopp has made a huge £34m error as report makes surprise transfer claim
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp may well regret deciding against signing Borussia Monchengladbach midfielder Florian Neuhaus during the summer transfer window. The Reds made just one summer signing – Ibrahima Konaté from RB Leipzig for around £35 million. It could be argued that Klopp failed to strengthen the area in most need of attention at Anfield, however. Gini Wijnaldum left Liverpool to join Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer in the summer. And Klopp deciding against replacing the Dutchman in the end. We think that could turn out to be a big error. Klopp may regret not signing Florian Neuhaus According to a report from The Sunday Mirror (September 5th, page 62), the 24-year-old Gladbach ace had his heart set on a move to Anfield. And the Bundesliga club were keen to sell hi...

‘It must be understood’ – Club chief confirms Tottenham held talks with £31m Leeds target
Cagliari sporting director, Stefano Capozucca has given his thoughts on the recently concluded transfer window. He believes that the Serie A club have worked with intelligence while dealing with some of their key players, especially Nahitan Nandez. Capozucca has revealed to L’Unione Sarda (h/t Calciomercato) that the Uruguayan midfielder had received offers from several clubs this summer, but Cagliari couldn’t accept those. Nandez was heavily linked with a move to a host of clubs this summer including Leeds United. The Italians were demanding a fee of €36 million (£31 million) for Nandez to be paid in two instalments.

Marcel Brands has a golden opportunity to rectify Everton transfer mistake – Opinion
Everton defender Seamus Coleman picked up an injury against Azerbaijan on Saturday and he is set to miss the Republic of Ireland’s World Cup qualifier against Serbia on Tuesday evening. The true extent of the injury is yet to be revealed but the news will come as a major blow for Everton who are already lacking in depth as far as the right-back position is concerned. The Toffees needed to bring in a quality right-back option this summer but they failed to do so and it could prove to be a costly mistake for them. The 32-year-old Everton defender was unlikely to play every week anyway and Marcel Brands should have signed someone who could replace Coleman in the long run. Jonjoe Kenny could step in as an alternative for Coleman but the drop off in quality will certainly weaken the side. The T...

Celtic signed Greek striker Giorgios Giakoumakis on deadline day and former Premier League striker and England international Kevin Phillips believes that the Hoops fans should be excited about their summer signing.

Then you are coming into a club where they create opportunities left right and centre. “They can score goals. If I’m a Celtic fan, I’m excited. You look at his record and see he can score goals. Those games against Rangers will be a struggle but the rest...
