MADRID, SPAIN - JULY 24: Arda Gler, player of Real Madrid, is training with his teammates at Ciudad Real Madrid on July 24, 2026 in Madrid, Spain. (Photo by David S. Bustamante/Real Madrid CF)Madridistas got their first look at Jose Mourinho 2.0s Real Madrid as the side took on Primera RFEF opponents AD Alcorcn at the Estadio Alfredo Di Stfano on Friday evening, with Dani Yez scoring the only goal of the game from the penalty spot.The first 20 minutes of action were open for journalists and viewers on Real Madrid TV, with a series of substitutions meaning that this game was entirely focused on building fitness for those who werent involved in this summers World Cup.Here, we run through some of the takeaways from the short sighting of action.1 This is still early pre-season The line-up which started this game featured Andriy Lunin in goal, a strong defensive unit of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dean Huijsen, Ral Asencio and lvaro Carreras, but much weaker midfield and attacking depth where the trios were formed by Thiago Cestero, Eduardo Camavinga and Arda Gler and in attack by Franco Mastantuono, Gonzalo Garca and Gabri Valero. The club reported that the XI on the field at the time of the final whistle were all players from Castilla and the clubs youth teams.2 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1?While the available first team players were always likely to have a strong influence on how Jose Mourinho set his team up here, it was intriguing to see that Real Madrid began pre-season with a 4-3-3 shape. The system was what worked so well in Mourinhos previous stint at the club, although he operated more regularly with a 4-2-3-1 with Benfica last season. At times, this shape did shift to look like a 4-2-3-1, with Gler stepping forward ahead of Cestero and Camavinga, and showing some of the tactical versatility that could be a point to watch in pre-season.3 Arda Gler stepped up as a penalty-takerWithout any of the usual suspects to take a penalty, the second-minute spot kick gave an opportunity to Arda Gler to step forward. Its perhaps unsurprising given that he has a 100% successive rate from 12 yards, scoring all seven penalties he has taken in his career. The last one, however, was in April 2022, and the rustiness showed as his low penalty down to Oriol Marts right was saved as it was hit without pace or power for his first recorded penalty save at the age of 26. In the second period, Dani Yez earned and converted a spot-kick for the winner.Guler wtf is that penalty pic.twitter.com/e53EhE7zfR (@Asensii20) July 24, 20264 A shot at redemption for Franco MastantuonoOn the same day as reports linking the club with RB Leipzigs Yann Diamonde emerged, Franco Mastantuono did his best to stake a claim. With Rodrygo still sidelined with a long-term knee injury, and the likes of Brahim Daz yet to return after the World Cup, this summer is the Argentines opportunity to prove a point. He was lively down the right flank, winning the penalty which Gler missed, and showed no lack of confidence. The teenager will face much tougher tests, but this was a strong first audition, with many club sources pointing to Mastantuono as being the best individual performer throughout the whole game.5 Eduardo Camavinga as the teams lone pivotIn midfield, Eduardo Camavinga is also looking for a lifeline. Speculation linking him with a move away from the Bernabu appears to have settled somewhat in recent weeks, and he was thriving with an influential midfield role against Alcorcn. Operating as the lone pivot, he was not called upon frequently in a defensive aspect, but was crucial to build-up play, dropping deep and operating like a quarterback in the middle of the midfield three with great success.Eduardo Camavinga vs AlcorcnAll within 25 minutes. @Camavingapic.twitter.com/TEAzlrione (@drskiiprods) July 24, 20266 An imprecise Trent Alexander-Arnold needs to make the most of this timeWhile he joined as a star last summer, injuries have prevented Trent Alexander-Arnold from nailing down first choice at right-back. This summer has seen him miss out on Englands World Cup squad and seen Denzel Dumfries signed to compete with him. Thats stiff competition. It also perhaps explains why Trent was perhaps too eager to impress. In the first 20 minutes he twice looked to play spectacular long balls through only to find themselves nowhere near their target, and bombed down the flank only to lose possession with a poor touch in a one-two. Trents clearly got the quality and the ambition, but Jose Mourinho will need to find the balance between the two if hes to get the best out of the former Liverpool man.

LeBron James certainly took his time when it came to choosing his next NBA team in free agency after the Los Angeles Lakerswere informed on June 30 that he wouldn't be staying with them. On Friday, July 23, he finally decided to join the Philadelphia 76ers on a two-year, $8 million contract with a player option on the second year.There was some speculation about why he was prolonging the process and taking so long. Now that he's walking into what has to be the most stacked roster he has ever joined, fans have had a wide range of reactions, especially on X (formerly Twitter).Some Lakers fans felt that if James came back on a veteran minimum contract, he would be a perfect fit for an L.A. squad that lacks a starting-level forward. This fan feels the superstar simply didn't believe in the roster L.A. now has.So he basically thought that even with all the Laker moves, they still cant win. smh Dean (@thedean1979) July 24, 2026In response, this fan feels James is creating a built-in excuse in the event the 76ers don't win the NBA championship this coming season.He wants an excuse in case they dont win, with Philly he can say its our first year as a team we building chemistry yadda yadda. That line dont work in LA for him. Botcher (@StayAwayFromLA) July 24, 2026These fans feel James' decision is typical of his moves over the years to join frontrunning teams. Philly traded for five-time All-Star wing and 2024 NBA Finals MVP Jaylen Brown a few weeks ago, and it will now have what many will likely consider a superteam with Brown, Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey alongside James.No shock. LeBron stacking the deck as usual. Didn't Jaylen Brown just say this past season was his most fun because he was the clear leader of the team. Now what Aljay Randall (@Aljay_Randall) July 24, 2026He's ring chasing as usual! Typical Lebum. Chasing Jordan, trying to be the G.O.A.T. but he'll never get there. Chad Mc (@TheonlyChadMac) July 24, 2026Ring chasing at 41 is some weird "GOAT" behavior Buddyyyo (@buddyyyoo) July 24, 2026This Philadelphia sports fan may have seen this coming, and he pointed out that James now has a chance to achieve a new NBA first -- winning championships with four different franchises.If the decision was about winning, then Ive thought it had to be the Sixers ever since we acquired Jaylen Brown. None of the other teams in the mix came close. No player has ever won rings with 4 different teams. LBJ knows that. Tom Larkins (@TomLark1) July 24, 2026This fan is skeptical that all the talent the Sixers now have will translate into one cohesive unit that gets results in real life.So basically he went with names instead of actual proper basketball fit. Not a smart choice. Andrew Williams (@Wandrew96nov) July 24, 2026Rich Paul, James' longtime agent and friend, said a few weeks ago that James wants "complete happiness" at this point in terms of basketball. According to a more recent report, James' daughter Zhuri, a rising 11-year-old volleyball star, would be an important factor in his free agency decision.This fan called the elder James a "liar" for those reasons.Thus, he is a liar. He said it was about happiness and family, then made a decision which is not in the interest of happiness and family. It is about LeBron and his ego. This flameout is going to be epic! Dameon Geppetto is Writing & Querying (@DameonGeppetto) July 24, 2026These two fans feel that not only is the future Hall of Famer chasing his fifth ring, but that the way he is doing so will hurt his standing among the greatest players in NBA history.This is why hes outside the top 10 all time. kclrbeck (@KCLRBeck) July 24, 2026And thats why hes not the GOAT. Craig Peters (@CraigPeters14) July 24, 2026Last season, the Sixers went 45-37 and were swept in the second round of the playoffs by the eventual champion New York Knicks after getting past the Boston Celtics, the team they acquired Brown from, in the first round. Embiid only played in 38 games due to injury.This article originally appeared on LeBron Wire: NBA Twitter reacts to LeBron James joining the 76ers

The new Manchester City manager is determined to help Citys golden boy shineEarlier this week, Manchester City announced that Phil Foden had extended his contract with the club until the summer of 2030. It is clear that City are backing Foden to return to his dazzling best after two tough and trying seasons for him. New City manager Enzo Maresca is aiming to help Foden on that path and if he succeeds, it will help shape Manchester City into a formidable unit.Enzo Maresca is aiming to help Phil Foden enjoy his football once again.When Enzo Maresca faced the media yesterday for the first time as Manchester City manager yesterday, he said that he aiming to help Phil Foden return to his best form. The Italian manager added that it is his duty to do so. Speaking on Phil Foden, Maresca said: I just want to help Phil to be the Phil we all want. First of all for him because he needs to enjoy football and second because I know how good he is. Phil in a good shape and mood, he can win games.Treble season he was fantastic, season after he won Player of the Year. He struggled a little bit, but I told him its my duty to help him. Hes from the house. Hes from me. Hes a City fan.If Enzo Maresca can get the best out of Phil Foden it will be exactly what Manchester City need.A big variable over the 2026-27 season for Manchester City is which Phil Foden they will get. Will the 2023-24 Player of the Season Foden return? The hope is that after a summer of rest this is what occurs. Or will Foden continue to be the inconsistent player he has been over the past two seasons? Foden is too good a player to not be a key player for the FA Cup and Carabao Cup holders. Hopefully the saying that class is permanent and form is temporary rings true for Foden this season.Enzo Maresca is determined to help Phil Foden find his best once again. Maresca has worked with Foden previously, and that does give Maresca a template to use to guide Foden. He knows what makes Foden tick, and that should aid Maresca in his quest to help the England international. It seems that is what Maresca is determined to do as he explained yesterday.Enzo Maresca is aiming to help Phil Foden become a vital component of Manchester Citys side. If he can succeed in his goal, it will be huge for the FA Cup and Carabao Cup holders as Foden is a bonafide match-winner that City will need firing throughout next season and beyond.

What are Liverpools Chances of Winning the Premier League in 2026/27?Liverpool enter the 2026/27 season with one objective in mind: to return to the top of English football. After an underwhelming 2025/26 season that saw them finish fifth in the table, the club has responded with a new manager and other signings.The arrival of Andoni Iraola has raised expectations from fans and stakeholders who believe his high-intensity style can help Liverpool compete for the title. Were talking about one of the most exciting young managers in Europe who made an underdog like Bournemouth finish 6th last season.Iraola in charge of Liverpool could mean great things because the club still has the budget, quality, winning mentality, and ambition to challenge for the title. But they face fierce competition from other top teams, which begs the question, can Liverpool win the Premier League this season?Lets find out!Where Did Liverpool Finish the 2025/26 Season?The fans were left disappointed when the club finished 5th, a position that fell short of expectations considering they started as one of the favorites.Key Lessons From Last SeasonTheir best stretch revealed they can still beat top teams and go on a long unbeaten run, which they did for 10 matches in last campaign. But their worst spell saw them go through five games without a win, revealing they are inconsistent under pressure. In summary, they had enough quality to stay competitive, but not enough to sustain a title-level pace all season.Summer ChangesThere has been a lot of reshuffling with departures and arrivals. The most noticeable one was Andoni Iraola replacing Arne Slot as the manager, plus the exits of Mohammed Salah, Ibrahim Konate, and Andy Robertson. So far, the club has signed Victor Munoz, a winger from Osasuna and Jeremy Jacquet from Rennes, but more reinforcements are expected.The clubs recruitment plan is to bring in younger, high-intensity players who fit Iraolas tactical philosophy while preserving experienced leaders like Van Dijk and Alisson Becker.The Impact of Andoni Iraolas LeadershipLiverpool Premier League chances largely depend on Iraolas influence. After his impressive work with Bournemouth, the Spaniard arrives with a clear footballing identity and the task of leading the Reds into a new era. If his ideas take hold quickly, theres no doubt that Liverpool will become one of the most difficult teams to face in the league.Tactical PhilosophyIraola builds his team on relentless pressing, quick ball recoveries, and fast attacking transitions. So, instead of sitting deep, they look to force mistakes higher up the match and convert turnovers into scoring opportunities. Such an aggressive approach suits Liverpools athletic squad, especially players like Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexis Mac Allister and Florian Wirtz.Challenges AheadThe transition will not be without obstacles:The squad is trying to adapt to a more demanding pressing system.Replacing the leadership and attacking output lost through key departures like Mohammed Salah.Building consistency while integrating new signings into the starting XI.Iraolas ability to handle the pressure and expectations that come with Liverpool title race 2026/27.Liverpools Biggest Strengths Going Into 2026/27The Reds are one of the Premier League contenders thanks to top-level players like Virgil Van Dijk, Alisson Becker, and Florian Wirtz. Their attack also looks more flexible now with the addition of Victor Munoz, adding pace, creativity, and goal threat. Another major strength is that the team has shown it can compete at the top and handle big-game pressure even if last season didnt work out.Squad QualityLiverpool still has a fine mix of established internationals and emerging talent that gives Liverpool Manager Andoni Iraola the flexibility to implement his ideas without sacrificing quality across the pitch.Winning MentalityFew clubs in England can match Liverpools recent record of competing for major honors. Liverpool has a habit of staying calm and finding a way to win even under pressure, but last season showed doubt and inconsistency creeping in when results turned. Still, the club is known for resilience and regaining that ruthless mindset can be key for their 2026/27 push.Early-Season OpportunitiesLiverpool Premier League odds get better if they can achieve a fast start because it will build confidence in Iraolas system and put early pressure on title rivals.Main Rivals for the Premier League TitleLiverpools championship chances still remain complicated because theres no easy route to the title. Were talking about arguably the most competitive domestic campaign where several clubs have the quality and financial muscle to challenge throughout the season. Lets quickly discuss some of them.ArsenalIn recent seasons, theyve never gone below 2nd in the standings, and last campaign saw them clinch the title. If theres any major obstacle to Liverpools title hopes, its the Gunners.Manchester CityYou cant overlook Manchester City regardless of how previous seasons have unfolded. This is a side that won the title four consecutive times and still possesses one of the deepest squads in Europe with players experienced in winning multiple titles. However, a new manager is in charge and whether he makes them serious Premier League contenders remains to be seen.Chelsea and Other ChallengersChelsea are too inconsistent to be a real challenger, but theyve shown they can beat any team on a good day. Then theres Newcastle, who has a strong home record, serious spending power, and enough quality to trouble top teams. Aston Villa is not a favorite but has a reputation for upsetting big teams, plus they have a great coach.What Could Prevent Liverpool From Winning the League?We can think of a few reasons.Squad DepthThe depth is fine, but Liverpool squad analysis shows that injuries and a demanding fixture can test the team, especially if key players are unavailable for extended periods.ConsistencyThe Premier League title race comes down to maintaining high standards across 38 matches. If Liverpool loses momentum and comes up short against top teams in key clashes, the trophy wont be coming to Anfield.Transition PeriodIraola has a good track record, but he is just taking over, and his ideas will need time to germinate in the team. However, if the team can adapt quickly, they can go all the way.Additional Entertainment for Football FansThe Premier League season, for many supporters, is more than just watching matches. Between fixtures, some fans take pleasure in exploring other forms of online entertainment, from fantasy football to casino platforms like Fairgo Casino online. These activities make a good pastime, especially when there are no Liverpool matches to bet on or watch.Final Prediction: Can Liverpool Lift the Trophy?Liverpool has the manager, squad quality, and experience to mount a serious challenge for the title, but their biggest test will be adapting to Iraolas philosophy while being consistent. However, if they settle quickly and avoid major injury setbacks, a Liverpool Premier League prediction of finishing top two is within reach. Whether the Reds will lift the trophy or not comes down to how quickly this new era comes together.

Why Barcelonas Karim Adeyemi transfer is unlike any Borussia Dortmund sale in yearsBarcelonas signing of Karim Adeyemi has not only strengthened Hansi Flicks attack but also brought an end to one of Borussia Dortmunds most consistent transfer trends.The German winger arrived at Barcelona in a deal worth a fixed 22 million, with a further 7 million in performance-related add-ons.While the agreement certainly represents a sensible piece of business for Borussia Dortmund given that Adeyemi had entered the final year of his contract, it falls well short of the enormous profits the Bundesliga side has become famous for generating in the transfer market.According to the figures involved, Barcelonas Karim Adeyemi transfer is one of the few major Dortmund departures in recent years that has not resulted in a substantial financial windfall for the German club.Adeyemi transfer bucks Dortmunds transfer modelBorussia Dortmund signed Adeyemi from RB Salzburg in 2022 for 30 million, viewing the German international as another exciting young talent capable of developing into a world-class player.Four seasons later, however, Barcelona secured the winger for a package that could reach 29 million, meaning Dortmund were unable to sell the player for more than they originally invested.That is a rare outcome for a club that has built a reputation for identifying young stars, developing them and eventually selling them for enormous profits.A look at Dortmunds blockbuster salesSome of Borussia Dortmunds most successful sales have involved Spains two biggest clubs.The most famous came in 2017, when Barcelona signed Ousmane Dembele in a deal worth 135 million including bonuses.Dortmund had paid Rennes just 15 million a year earlier, allowing them to generate an extraordinary profit of around 120 million.Karin Adeyemi signed for Barcelona for just 22 million. (Picture credit: X/@FCBarcelona)Later, in 2023, Real Madrid completed the signing of Jude Bellingham after Dortmund had developed the England international into one of Europes finest midfielders.Having signed him from Birmingham City for 29 million in 2020, Dortmund sold him to the Spanish giants in 2023 for 127 million.The club also enjoyed huge returns on players such as Jadon Sancho, Christian Pulisic, Erling Haaland, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Mario Gtze and Jamie Gittens, reinforcing their reputation as one of world footballs smartest clubs in the transfer market.Against that backdrop, the Adeyemi deal stands out as an exception rather than the rule.
