Scottish bowler Jason Banks is fond of the Alishan Tandoori in Glasgow. But he knows it is best to avoid it this week.Why? Because Pakistan's Mohammed 'Chico' Qureshi - who Banks will face in the Commonwealth Games men's singles on Friday - runs the restaurant.While Banks was the first Team Scotland athlete to compete at these Games - as he defeated Robert Simpson of Jamaica in straightsets - you would be forgiven for thinking otherwise, as the well-supported Qureshi took to the portable rink at the SEC Centre in the session prior.Pakistan was the name on the back of his shirt, but the 67-year-old restaurateur - who competed at the 2014 Games - has called Glasgow home for over 50 years. Is 2026 the Commonwealth Games' last dance or a future-proofing revamp?Five big names to look out for at Glasgow 2026It was something of a dream for Qureshi to go again in a second home Games after taking to the outdoor green at Kelvingrove 12 years ago.A member at Glasgow Indoor Bowling Club - just round the corner from his restaurant - he had been putting in the hours to be ready for the conditions awaiting him in his opening match against Wales' Ross Owen.Unfortunately, it did not quite go to plan as he lost in straight sets - 12-5 and 17-0."That's the worst game I've ever played," a still upbeat Qureshi told BBC Scotland. "It was very tricky to get going. The more I was trying, the worse I was getting."All is far from lost, though, with four Group C games still to go.On the carpet, Qureshi is hoping for much improvement. Off it, he is not sure if he has scared his supporters away. "I had a few here," he said. "But, with my performance, I don't think they'll come back again!"As long as they keep coming back to the restaurant, though. Because, for now, they have lost the custom of Banks.The former world number one - who held the world indoor singles, pairs and mixed pairs titles last year - has been known to dine in Glasgow's southside, but he is heading elsewhere for now."I'm a bit scared to go back this week in case he puts something in my food," the 30-year-old from Inverurie joked. "So I'll stay away just now."Banks faces Qureshi at 14:45 on Friday.

Former Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel became a free agent earlier this year, and he has yet to sign with any team. There have been conversations about his return to the Commanders, as well as a potential return to the San Francisco 49ers, but nothing has come of it yet.On a recent episode of the "Speakeasy" podcast, hosted by Emmanuel Acho and LeSean McCoy, the two discussed Samuel's potential return to the 49ers. McCoy said that the Niners were missing a "spark" in 2025, something Samuel used to provide for the team. Acho vehemently disagreed with McCoy.Im not gonna pay a glorified mascot top-tier moneyIm paying you to get 1,400 yards. Deebo had 700 last year and 670 the year before, exclaimed Acho. At the end of the day, Deebo has had 1-1,000-yard receiving season. ONE! JUST ONE!While he's technically not wrong, Samuel has had only one 1,000-yard season; he's missing what Samuel actually brings to the table, and ignoring what he has been asked to do on the field. Not every receiver is going to get 1,000 yards every year, especially if he's not WR1.Last year, Samuel was supposed to be the slot guy, the utility receiver who can also run with the ball and provide a distraction. The Commanders were not asking him for 1,000 yards. And with the injuries to Jayden Daniels, we'll never know what kind of a season he could have had.Samuel wasn't a fan of what Acho said, either.Glorified mascot Who is bruhWho gave him a voice You play 3 years gang 3 different teams Aint coming at you but stop trying me bruh@EmmanuelAcho Deebo (@19problemz) July 21, 2026Deebo also isn't technically wrong. Acho was in the league for three years, but he only played in two of them due to landing on injured reserve as a rookie. He appeared in 20 games and recorded 33 tackles (22 solo) and two tackles for a loss.Acho has never been one to hold back on his opinions, although it seems like he's part of a small group of people who share that thought. And it's rightfully a small group, because Samuel will end up on a team before the season starts. And, unlike Acho, it will be his eighth season.This article originally appeared on Commanders Wire: Ex-Commanders WR Deebo Samuel fires back at Emmanuel Acho

FRANKFURT AM MAIN, GERMANY - JULY 24: Juergen Klopp (L, Head coach of the german national team) and Hans-Joachim Watzke (R,/ DFL-President) look on at DFB-Campus on July 24, 2026 in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. (Photo by Markus Ulmer - GES Sportfoto/Getty Images) | Getty ImagesAfter the failure and subsequent sacking of Julian Nagelsmann, Germany had to go out and get a new coach for the national team. Thankfully, unlike some other footballing nations, the Germans had a top level coach just sitting around waiting for the opportunity. Jrgen Klopp is now the new head coach of the DFB, and he plans to make changes. In his first press conference, he elaborated on what things will look like with him in charge. As a coaching team, we want to present a complete package, said the former Borussia Dortmund and Liverpool FC manager (via @iMiaSanMia). Ive never been a coach who just shows up, puts the players through their paces, and then goes home when training is over. Ive always taken care of things that happen at the club. Now its a federation, now its a country. Ive always felt responsible at the club I was working for. I feel a responsibility to everyone whos a football fan in this country. And that means doing the job as well as possible.I want to get very involved in the structures, he explained (via @iMiaSanMia). Whoever brings in Jrgen, gets Jrgen. Everyone is happy today, but Im not sure if that will be the case every day. I want to improve everything. I want to present the German national team in a positive light, so that we can eventually get back to the top. Im looking forward to the challenge.Well, if there is anyone who can fix Germany, its Klopp. Fans eagerly await this new era of the DFB.

Is there heavy-metal football? This is how Klopp wants Germany to playJrgen Klopp is known for an intense style of football with high pressing and a direct approach to goal. His style has often been described as heavy-metal football. But is this way of playing also possible with the German national team? At his unveiling, the new head coach gave an initial outline of his plan."I want to improve everything. Present the German national team in a positive light so that we can eventually rise to the top again," he announced. Above all, his football should be exciting: "Its been a while since I watched internationals outside of major tournaments. Id really love for all of us to watch every international again. We all agree that successful football can change a country."He sees the fans and their enthusiasm as an important aspect of achieving success, because a certain level of emotion is needed to get through difficult moments as well.And tactically? Klopp: "Counter-pressing will be an important topic, a stable formation, a clear footballing idea. With all the uncertainties that come with it. We wont play man-marking," even though Bayern Munich play with man-marking. He also said he gained important impressions from the World Cup: "The teams that could have won the tournament played with a back four. Well do that too. Well also play with wingers. The playmakers of todays generation are out wide."He also hopes to be given time to develop things. Success cannot be guaranteed immediately, but he wants to deliver a kind of football that gives the fans a good feeling. Football that gives you the sense that the team has given everything. If that succeeds, then success is possible too.He cited France as an example, saying they have the better individual players. "But that doesnt mean we cant beat them."This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in here.
