How would a European Super-League work?

For those of you who are unfamiliar with the idea, a ‘European Super-League’ is a proposed alternative to the current UEFA Champions League. Instead of grouping top European teams into an elimination tournament, Europe’s finest would instead form a “super league” where top teams from each league would compete against each other on a weekly basis throughout the course of the season.

Mirroring the standard domestic league format, the team with the most points at the end of the season would win the league. The bottom three or perhaps four teams would be relegated.

While several other managers and numerous sports journalists have discussed the idea for the past several years, I’ve not yet seen anyone develop the framework for such a league. With this thought in mind, here’s my idea for how the European Super League would work.

Entirely replacing the UEFA Champions League, the UEFA Super League would initially feature the top three clubs from the English Premier League (EPL), the Bundesliga and Serie A and the top two teams from La Liga and Ligue 1. One club from each of Portugal, Holland, Belgium, Ukraine and Russia would combine for five more members, and an additional two vacancies would be awarded to two clubs from smaller leagues which advanced through a qualification process.

Altogether, the league would feature 20 member teams which would play every opponent twice (home and away) for a total of 38 games. In order to avoid forcing players to the point of physical exhaustion or requiring clubs to build a full-strength second team, clubs would not compete in their domestic leagues while playing in the UEFA Super League. However, all member clubs would continue competing in their domestic cup competitions.

At the end of the season, the club with the most points would be crowned the UEFA Champion and the bottom four teams would be relegated to their domestic leagues.

At the domestic leagues level, since top clubs could no longer qualify for the Champions League, they would instead qualify for the Europa League where the four semi-finalists would replace the four relegated sides in the following season’s UEFA Super League.

In order to ensure sides relegated from the Super League would have the opportunity to earn immediate promotion the following season, they would be awarded automatic Europa League qualification.

While many of you probably consider this suggestion utterly preposterous, I encourage you to at least consider the idea.

Firstly, the plan would shrink the huge talent gap between top teams and their typical opponents. So, instead of Manchester United facing Newcastle, Stoke and Sunderland in a random three-week period of the season, they could instead face the likes of Porto, Juventus and Ajax.

Sure, we might miss out on some exciting two-leg series, but I would much rather watch the Red Devils play an entire season of meaningful contests than wait until the Champions League quarter-finals for them to feature against a world-class opponent.

Opponents argue that while strengthening the competition at the highest levels, such an exclusive league would destroy domestic competition. Conversely, I suspect the UEFA Super League would have the exact opposite effect on competition.

For example, with English Premier League sides Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal likely to spend most seasons in the Super League, teams such as Liverpool, Tottenham, Newcastle and Everton would have a legitimate chance of actually winning the league.

With a top-three finish promising a place in the Europa League and an eventual shot at cracking into the Super League, the fans of mid-table teams throughout Europe could actually get excited about their club’s future prospects.

Furthermore, domestic cup competitions would become increasingly intense. With Super League teams not regularly facing domestic competition, they would be eager to prove their worth by winning a domestic championship.

Realising a unique opportunity to compete against the top clubs in the country, emergent league sides, perhaps vying to complete a domestic double, would be intensely motivated to shock their supposedly superior opponent.

Task One Complete For Appleton At Blackpool

Two games played and two games drawn is probably the best start for a new manager.

Nobody gets unreasonably high expectations and nobody gets on your back either. So after a last minute equaliser at Bristol City, Michael Appleton can get back on the training pitch again knowing that things are going just fine.

After a frantic start as Blackpool manager, coming in so soon after Holloway’s departure and just days before his first game, Appleton seems to have settled well and we saw his first tweaks to the side on Saturday.

Two changes were forced due to injuries to Taylor-Fletcher and Matty Phillips, but another change was not forced and was perhaps the most telling. Neal Eardley made way for Ian Evatt, with Baptiste moving to right back. For many, Eardley is a scapegoat at Blackpool so his absence wasn’t too surprising. But bringing Evatt back and moving Baptiste out wide was a shock. Baptiste has been considered Blackpool’s best centre half for the last few years, even picking up the North West Championship Player of The Year last week, but Appleton either likes what he has seen of Evatt, or has marked the right back slot as a problem area and trusts Baptiste to fill in there.

Either way, it seemed to work as Blackpool limited the home side’s chances to almost none and would have kept a clean sheet but for a much disputed penalty award. For what it’s worth, I thought that although it was a soft penalty to give, it is one you see given as the player goes down easily under an unneccesary challenge from the keeper.

Thankfully, things were evened up in the 90th minute as the referee then awarded Blackpool a soft penalty of their own as a Bristol City defender was adjudged to have handled a cross, and Tom Ince converted to bring a point back to the seaside.

With both penalties cancelling each other out, we could call this a 0-0 rather than a score draw. And I think that is exactly what Appleton was looking for. A clean sheet. A base to build on and give the defence some confidence. That was the first and most important thing that the new manager had to do.

In truth, although he has taken charge of a great bunch of talented players, aside from that Appleton has been left with a bit of a mess really. Ian Holloway obviously wasn’t committed to the job this year and has left behind a strange work ethic and a lot of players who are unhappy to be left in the shadows.

Ian Evatt has had a few things to say this week which shed some light on just what was going on at Blackpool recently. He has stated how the club had ‘become stale’ under Holloway and highlighted how little defensive work was done in training. In fact, how little actual training was done. He said “We hadn’t really done much training in the last couple of months. We had numerous days off, anything from two to five or six at a time. We are an honest bunch of lads who just want to work hard. At times we weren’t doing that. That’s probably why we had the bad spell.”

That’s a pretty revealing interview and goes some way to explaining why things went from fantastic to average so quickly under Holloway. As fans, we knew about the repeated days off, and during a bad spell it became a source of frustration, but nobody knew that the situation was as bad as it was. Six days off at a time is utterly ridiculous for a set of professional players. Initially, I thought Holloway was being a nice, understanding manager by allowing players to recharge, but as it went on and the holiday days multiplied, it became obvious that the manager was actually giving himself time off to visit his family or, as it appeared, other clubs.

But with a new manager comes a fresh start and the players seem to be enjoying having a new man around. A new training regime that consists of, well, training to start with, but also defending. This new way of work includes higher-intensity training to work on fitness and also keeping an eye on what the players eat afterwards. Although these things sound pretty standard, they were obviously lacking and hopefully the new manager can help bring a bit of discipline back to the camp and start an upturn in fortunes.

After just one full week in training his side managed to go a full game without conceding from open play, so it obviously had an effect. And he has a rare second full week in a row to work with the players some more and find the right balance between a solid defence and the attacking flair that this side is known for.

It’s not yet known what Appleton’s remit is yet. Would we be happy with a steady top half finish, or does he pick up where we started the campaign harbouring dreams of automatic promotion?

We will find out soon enough but the first win or loss will be crucial as it will shape the views of the fans. For example, a win on Saturday will mean we are unbeaten under Appleton, yet a loss would mean we are without a win. Two very different sounding options resting on the first non-draw of Appleton’s reign.

But that is all for the future. For now, Michael Appleton has started to turn things around at Blackpool and has made a good start on his first objective of fixing a leaky defence and bringing back some hard work to the training pitch.

Destined for a higher calling at Newcastle?

Yohan Cabaye is one of the Premier League’s most sought-after transfer properties this January, following an incredible first half of the season for Newcastle. It remains to be seen whether any of his many suitors, including Arsenal, Manchester United and PSG, will take the reported £22million bait before the end of the month. But either way, the 28 year-old has proved this term that he’s destined for a higher calling than the Magpies – no offence Toon fans.

To suggest the Frenchman wasn’t highly thought of before the current campaign would be untrue. Arsenal launched an ill-fated £12million bid for Cabaye back in the summer, suggesting they felt that after two years at Newcastle, he was ready to handle life at a major club.

But they resisted the Magpies’ valuation of £20million, which, at the time, would have broken the Gunners’ record transfer fee by a few million.

Bizarrely however, I’d suggest another playmaking midfielder is the last thing the Premier League table-toppers need right now, and although Arsenal are the calibre of club I believe Cabaye is more than capable of playing for, his contribution would go relatively unnoticed at the Emirates.

That being said, for £20million, or £22million to take the player on midseason according to the tabloids, the France international remains an absolute steal. A record of 17 goals and 15 assists in 79 Premier League appearances is an unbelievable return for a deep-lying midfielder, even if a significant proportion of his output is currently being sourced from dead-ball situations.

That’s only 15 goals and one assist less than Yaya Toure, who has made 30 more Premier League outings than the Magpies star in a far more accommodating Manchester City side. It’s also just two goals less than Steven Gerrard in the last three years, despite the England international’s willingness to shoot from any range and any angle.

Not that output is the only impressive part of Cabaye’s game. This season he’s averaged 2.4 tackles and 2.4 interceptions per match, showing that the 5 foot 9 midfielder is more than competent when it comes to defensive contribution and is by no means a ‘luxury’ player, whilst in possession, he’s made 33 key passes in 17 Premier League starts, illustrating his core ability to unlock opposition defences with telling balls.

But as previously stated, Cabaye’s ability has been known for some time. The difference this season however has been in the great versatility and flexibility he’s shown by changing and modifying his role into the Magpies’ No.10.

Traditionally considered a playmaker of the more Miralem Pjanic, Luka Modric or Paul Scholes variety, finding pockets of space from deep and producing a mix-ranged passing game, Alan Pardew has fielded Cabaye at the tip of midfield of six occasions this season and in return the Frenchman has provided four goals from his new role, including a stunning brace against West Ham at the weekend.

Some would argue it could be a case of a big fish asserting his dominance in a small pond, and transitioning to the ocean of a major club could see Cabaye eaten alive by a shark that won’t even notice the 28 year-old inadvertently swimming down his predatory gullet.

Rather, I’d argue the France international has been a whale the Newcastle puddle for some time.

There’s been an obvious correlation between Newcastle’s league standing and the midfielder’s fitness over the last three years; upon his first campaign in England, in which Cabaye made34 league appearances, the Magpies finished in fifth, and with their talisman operating at full throttle again  this term, they possess an outside chance of another continental qualification, currently sitting in eighth place in the English table.

But last year, when Cabaye spent a significant chunk of the season sidelined through injury, missing from November to February due to groin surgery, Newcastle’s form decisively tanked, recording 19 league defeats and lucky to finish the campaign with their top flight status intact. In my opinion, that’s no coincidence and is a fantastic testament to Cabaye’s vitality on Tyneside. No wonder the Magpies few him as a player worth in excess of £20million, which will be their biggest sale since Andy Carroll in 2011.

Of course, the other factor for major clubs to consider before making an acquisition is personality. Back in the summer, Cabaye’s professionalism was tested, as Alan Pardew informed reporters his ‘head had been turned’ by the Gunners’ transfer interest. It seemed Cabaye was set for six months of sulking at the Magpies’ training ground, driving down his value until another club snapped him up in January for a fee that didn’t justify his abilities or facilitate for the rupture his departure could have at St. James’s Park.

But refraining from playing the transfer market to his advantage rather than the beautiful game itself, Cabaye has used his actions on the pitch to prove to his suitors that he’s worth the £20million Newcastle have been asking for, producing the most prominent form of his Premier League career to date. If there was ever any doubt over what quality bracket the Frenchman belongs to, and whether or not he has the temperament or drive to up his game to the next level, surely this season, following a disruptive end to the summer window,  is all the evidence one needs.

Producing free kicks that verge upon artistry, long-range goals that leave one foaming at the mouth, donning a mixed passing game so intelligently orchestrating in its destructive efficiency and a level of work-rate and anticipation out of possession we’d more frequently associate with a natural ball-winner, now demonstrating he’s capable of any role required of him in the middle of the park including at the attacking pivot of the midfield, and a player who has consistently proved himself over three years in the Premier League – what more could a major club want this January for a mere £20million?

David Moyes, Laurent Blanc, Tim Sherwood, Arsene Wenger, Brendan Rodgers – it’s time for Cabaye to answer his higher calling.

Everton boss ‘very excited’ by Europa League

Roberto Martinez says that the Europa League is an exciting challenge for his Everton side and one that will help his players to progress.

After narrowly missing out on a spot in the Champions League, the Toffees are gearing up for the continent’s second biggest club competition, with German side Wolfsburg set to take to the turf at Goodison Park tomorrow night.

While a number of managers – including Jose Mourinho in the run up to his side’s recent game – have slated the Europa League for it’s demanding Thursday night fixtures and long trips, Martinez is at the other end of the spectrum in regards to the tournament.

أعلن نادي بنفيكا البرتغالي، تعاقده مع الدولي الأرجنتيني، أنخيل دي ماريا في صفقة انتقال حر بعد نهاية عقده مع يوفنتوس بنهاية الموسم الماضي.

وكان يوفنتوس قد أعلن رحيل أنخيل دي ماريا بعد عام واحد فقط للأرجنتيني مع البيانكونيري، ولم يتمكن من تحقيق أي لقب في فترته بملعب أليانز، رغم أنه توّج ببطولة كأس العالم 2022 مع التانجو خلال الموسم الماضي.

40 مباراة خاضها دي ماريا خلال الموسم مع يوفنتوس، وسجل 8 أهداف وصنع 7، ولكنه تعرض للعديد من السخرية من قبل جماهير البيانكونيري في مباراة الفريق الأخيرة أمام أودينيزي.

موسم دي ماريا انقسم بسبب بطولة كأس العالم في قطر 2022، والذي استحوذ على انتباه أنخيل، وبعد تحقيق اللقب، لم يتمكن من استعادة مستواه مع البيانكونيري بسبب الإصابات، رغم تسجيله هاتريك في مواجهة نانت بالدوري الأوروبي.

Glamorgan tie up long-term Allenby deal

Glamorgan will be relieved after tying allrounder Jim Allenby to a long-term deal. He was considering his future having been out of contract at the end of the season but will now stay in Cardiff until 2017.

Glamorgan will be relieved after tying allrounder Jim Allenby to a long-term deal. He was considering his future having been out of contract at the end of the season but will now stay in Cardiff until 2017.Allenby, 30 from Western Australia, is Glamorgan’s leading runscorer this season in the County Championship and Friends Life t20. Glamorgan were very keen to keep him but Allenby was weighing up his options with several counties interested.He was disappointed to have been stripped of the one-day captaincy in favour of fellow Australian Marcus North but if anything, it has galvanised Allenby’s batting. He led Glamorgan’s good run in the Flt20 with 355 runs at 50.71.Allenby has also helped his county avoid total disaster in the Championship. He has defied their lowly position of eighth in Division Two with 941 runs at 67.21. Alan Hamer, Glamorgan’s chief executive, emphasised the point: “We are delighted to have retained Jim’s services for the next four years. He is a key member of our playing squad.”Today’s announcement re-affirms the club’s determination to become a successful first-class county. We remain committed to retaining our best players and to challenge strongly in all forms of the game.”Allenby added: “I am extremely happy to commit the next four years of my playing career to Glamorgan and look forward to working with the playing squad and coaching staff to bring success back to this club.”Another player Glamorgan would like to retain for next season is veteran batsman Murray Goodwin, who has also propped up his county with 846 first-class runs at 56.40. His performances triggered a one-year extension to his contract for next season but Goodwin, 40, is keen to secure a two-year deal.

'We want to improve fielding, fast bowling' – Misbah

Though Pakistan went on to win the three-match series 2-1, the series was a lesson in avoiding complacency and the risks of underestimating the hosts in their territory, and these will be important lessons for Pakistan before the Tests

Umar Farooq02-Sep-2013

Misbah-ul-Haq and Younis Khan are expected to strengthen Pakistan’s batting•AFP

Pakistan were expected to dominate the ODI series against Zimbabwe, but the contest turned out to be closer than they would have liked. The loss in the first match was Pakistan’s first defeat to Zimbabwe in any format in the last 15 years. Though they went on to win the three-match series 2-1, that game was a lesson for Pakistan in avoiding complacency and the risks of underestimating the hosts in their territory.In spite of being the stronger team, Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq said the competition was unlikely to be lopsided, though his side have dominated in Tests between the two teams. In eight Tests in Zimbabwe since 1995, Pakistan have beaten the hosts six times, including the seven-wicket win in Bulawayo in 2011; the last time Zimbabwe won against the visitors at home was in 1995.”We will have to be on top of our game,” said Misbah. “We were here in 2011 and at that time Zimbabwe gave us a tough time in the Test. The way they are playing, we should not take them lightly because they are playing good cricket.”Pakistan’s last Test victory came in February 2012, when they beat England 3-0 in the UAE. Since then, the team has been in a transition phase. The pace attack has inexperienced bowlers in the absence of Umar Gul, while Saeed Ajmal and Abdur Rehman are shouldering most of the responsibility.Their young seamers, Junaid Khan and Rahat Ali, are likely to open the attack with Wahab Riaz coming on as first change, even as Ajmal and Rehman handle the spin department. The batting line-up looks strong with Younis Khan and Misbah in the middle order. Mohammad Hafeez has not yet been declared fit, but if he does play tomorrow, the toss-up for the slot of his opening partner will be between an uncapped Shan Masood and Khurram Manzoor, who was recalled after three years. Azhar Ali is expected to come in at No. 3.In spite of facing a team that’s currently unranked as Test-playing nation, Misbah denied that Pakistan were taking the opposition lightly.”It’s important to win the series, whoever you are playing against. Winning Test matches is important, then come the personal goals,” he said. “Your performances count all the time and we really want to perform well at that level. We have some new faces and really want to go with our main strength, give our 100%, because at the Test level, we want to win every game.”We want to improve in our fast bowling and the lengths we are bowling on in these conditions. We especially need to improve our fielding. We have two spinners [Rehman and Ajmal] who have been performing very well. They have been winning Test matches for us and we really bank on them. At the same time, Junaid Khan is performing well at the Test level. These conditions offer something for both seamers and spinners, so whoever bowls well can get results. It’s an opportunity for them to bowl well and take wickets.”Pakistan last scored over 400 runs in a Test match against Sri Lanka in 2012. The series against Zimbabwe, therefore, is a good opportunity for them to get runs before back-to-back-home series in the UAE against South Africa and Sri Lanka. Misbah was confident of his team’s batting prowess.”Two of our openers are new so one of them might play in the Tests, because we are not sure about Hafeez. Our batting line-up is very settled in Tests. After the openers, Azhar Ali has settled at No. 3 with Younis Khan at No. 4 or 5, and Asad Shafiq at No. 6. We had one series in tough conditions in South Africa, but I am hopeful that our Test batting line-up will do very well.”

Pedrinho reencontra adversário da estreia em nova chance para mudar sua vida no Corinthians

MatériaMais Notícias

Com dois anos de profissional, Pedrinho reencontrará neste domingo o adversário de sua estreia pelo Corinthians: a Ferroviária. As equipes se enfrentam a partir das 19h, em Araraquara, pela ida das quartas de final do Paulistão.

Naquele 19 de março de 2017, Pedrinho entrou aos 12 minutos do segundo tempo na vaga de Gabriel, mas não conseguiu evitar a derrota por 1 a 0 do Corinthians em Araraquara. Neste domingo, ele espera um outro desfecho em uma nova chance que terá para mudar “sua vida”.

Isso porque Pedrinho também reencontrará o VAR (árbitro de vídeo), que anulou um golaço no ano passado na final da Copa do Brasil contra o Cruzeiro. O jogador relembrou o episódio e agora busca voltar a disputar títulos pelo Timão.

– É inevitável lembrar daquele lance quando se fala de VAR. Foi um momento de muita alegria e tristeza pelo fato que aconteceu. Mas espero que venha para ser justo e agregar. Com certeza aquele lance é algo que lembro diariamente. Minha irmã sempre me mostra algumas imagens. Era um momento que mudaria minha vida e até do clube. Mas passou e agora é trabalhar para voltar a disputar títulos – disse Pedrinho.

Embora o técnico Fábio Carille não tenha confirmado a equipe do Corinthians para a partida, Pedrinho deve ser titular pelo lado direito do ataque. Até agora, o meia de 20 anos soma 93 jogos e cinco gols marcados pelo profissional do Timão.
