تحدث أحمد ناجي مدرب حراس مرمى منتخب مصر السابق وسموحة الحالي، عن حارس فريقه الهاني سليمان، والنقد الموجه لحارس الأهلي علي لطفي، كما علق على أداء شريف إكرامي مع بيراميدز.

وقال ناجي خلال مداخلة ببرنامج “بي أون تايم” عبر شاشة “أون تايم سبورت”: “الهاني سليمان يؤدي بشكل جيد جدًا مع الفريق، مسألة تضييعه للوقت مطلوبة في بعض الأوقات على حسب تعليمات أحمد سامي المدير الفني، باعتبار أن حارس المرمى يملك دفة اللعب”.

وأضاف: “الهاني سليمان يمتلك خبرة وعنده فرصة الانضمام لمنتخب مصر، وألوم نفسي الآن، لأنني أعتقد حينما كنت مدربا لحراس مرمى المنتخب المصري، كان يجب أن أنظر له أكثر من ذلك”.

وتابع: “فريق سموحة من أكثر الفرق في الدوري التي تمتلك لاعبين جيدين، وأحمد سامي يعمل بشكل علمي ويعي ماذا يفعل، والتكتيك متميز، واللاعبون عندما ينفذون تكتيكه الأداء يكون جيدا”.

وعن النقد الموجه لـ علي لطفي حارس مرمى النادي الأهلي، قال ناجي: “النقد الموجه له مبالغ فيه جدا على لاعب في مركز حساس، حارس المرمى عندما يبتعد عن الملعب فترة يحتاج وقتًا ليستعيد مستواه، لكنه حارس كبير، ومركز حراسة المرمة يحتاج للاعب واحد فقط، الخطأ الذي ارتكبه استطاع تداركه وتماسك”.

وعن مستوى شريف إكرامي مع بيراميدز: “اللاعبون ليسوا ملائكة، نحن في مصر نأخذ رد فعل سريع، لو أحد اللاعبين أدى مباراة جيدة يصبح أفضل حارس في العالم ولو أخفق يكون رد الفعل مختلف، شريف حارس كبير ونسبة أخطائه في بيراميدز قليلة وعادية، هو يلعب ويؤدي بشكل جيد وأنا أعلم كيف يتدرب وهو حارس كبير”.

وأتم: “أتمنى من جماهير الأهلي ألا تتربص بأحد، شريف لاعب محترف وخسارة رحيله عن الأهلي هو ورمضان صبحي وأي لاعب آخر، ربنا يوفق الجميع، اللاعبان يتعرضان لضغوط كبيرة، لأن جماهير الأهلي تتعشم في أبناء النادي ولكن كرة القدم تغيرت وأتمنى من الناس أن يتركوهما في حالهما”.

Celtic kicked off their 2019/20 season in positive fashion on Tuesday night, overcoming Bosnian champions FK Sarajevo 3-1 in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League qualifying tie.

Despite conceding the first goal of the match, Neil Lennon’s side rallied and were level by the interval thanks to a wonderful long-range effort from winger Mikey Johnston.

How can Celtic improve next season? A Hoops fan tells us how in the video below…

Odsonne Edouard and Scott Sinclair then added goals in the second half to give the team a commanding lead ahead of the second leg at Celtic Park next Wednesday.

Johnston was given the nod at left wing by Lennon and didn’t disappoint with his performance, providing a constant attacking outlet as well as the goal before being substituted off due to injury.

The 20-year-old is progressing well under the new manager, starting five matches and scoring three goals since Lennon’s arrival, even considered to be important enough to the team to start the Scottish Cup Final in May.

Celtic fans are beginning to get very excited about the potential he holds and what he can bring to the side this coming season, taking to Twitter to share their thoughts after his Tuesday display…

According to TuttoMercatoWeb, Liverpool are interested in signing Fiorentina attacker Federico Chiesa.

The Italian international hit 12 goals and recorded nine assists last term in the Coppa Italia and Serie A, and has clearly attracted the interest of Champions League winners Liverpool as a result of his performances.

You can relive Liverpool’s Champions League celebrations in glorious 2D thanks to the guys at 442oons in the video below…

Despite being a full senior international with 13 caps for his country, the 21-year-old has been busy starring for the Under-21 side this summer at the European Championships, where he has started to hog the limelight after a quite brilliant performance.

His latest showing in the tournament came against Spain’s Under-21 side, where he stole the show with two excellently taken goals.

The first of which was an exquisitely worked strike, but he also helped the Italians grab an equaliser before going on to net again.

A cross-field switch from Nicolo Barella was controlled expertly by Chiesa, almost as if he had glue on his boots, before he glided past his man and buried a shot past the keeper’s near post.

A finely built athlete with great technique, Chiesa can play anywhere across the frontline and would be an invaluable asset to Jurgen Klopp’s side given his versatility and quite scary amount of potential.

His two goals have rocketed him up to the top of the Under-21 European Championships scoring ranks, and if any Liverpool fan was watching his fine performance against the Spaniards, they would have found it difficult not to get excited at the prospect of him coming to Anfield.

He has also shown that he can adapt to Klopp’s high pressure, gegenpressing system by the sheer amount of tackles he made in this one game alone. Chiesa completed five successful challenges and is as industrial a forward as you can get.

It’s a transfer link to get the Anfield faithful salivating.

[ad_pod ]And as the month of July rolls around, many contracts around the footballing world have now officially expired.Alberto Moreno is among those superstars who are now, at least for the time being, without a club. The 26-year-old left-back has been a part of the Reds’ family since August 2014, when he joined from Sevilla.Last season, he played only two league games for Liverpool and was mostly sidelined or benched. His departure was very much on the cards throughout the 2018/19 campaign and this comes as no surprise, with the flying left-back now expected to pen a contract with Villarreal.“It reminds me of a bus seat!” – Watch a damning verdict on Chelsea’s new kit in the video below…Moreno has taken to

Of course, this attracted a lot of attention as his teammates and rivals alike swarmed the comment section, sending their best regards to the now ex-Liverpool man.

Virgil van Dijk responded on Twitter since the Spaniard posted the message on various social media accounts.

Steven Gerrard also posted a short but sincere message, wishing Moreno all the best in the future. They, of course, were not nearly the only ones as a sea of other players and teammates also rushed to Instagram to do the same.

[ad_pod ]Former Liverpool striker John Aldridge has claimed that the Reds should look to sign Son Heung-min from Tottenham Hotspur this summer.And it would be fair to say that the Merseyside club’s fans like the sound of the 26-year-old turning out for Jurgen Klopp’s side next term.Son enjoyed a fine 2018-19 campaign for Spurs – finding the back of the net on 20 occasions in 48 appearances, in addition to contributing 10 assists.Aldridge actually also mentioned Son’s teammate Lucas Moura as a potential target for the Champions League winners this summer.However, the South Korean is the player most wanted by the Liverpool fans.You can relive Liverpool’s Champions League celebrations in glorious 2D thanks to the guys at 442oons in the video below…Now, it seems incredibly unlikely that Tottenham would be prepared to sell one of their key men this summer, particularly to a domestic rival.That said, stranger things have happened in the world of football.A selection of the Twitter reaction from the Liverpool fans can be seen below:

Leeds United fans on social media believe that an exit for Jack Clarke could be imminent as the youngster has taken any mention of the club out of his Twitter bio.

Of course, this isn’t an actual indication that any deal is set to happen, but Whites supporters believe it is a sign that he is leaving Elland Road.

The 18-year-old’s profile picture and header remain the same but there is now no mention of his current team on his profile page.

This isn’t the first time we have seen something like this. Wayne Rooney took Manchester United out of his bio in 2013, but remained at the club until 2017, so these supporters may be getting ahead of themselves with the teenager.

Speculation has been rampant all summer that the youngster will be on his way to Tottenham, and while that deal may still happen this update on Twitter doesn’t signify that it is done and dusted.

Here’s what the Elland Road faithful have been saying on Twitter…

The biggest news at Newcastle at the moment is of the course that Rafa Benitez is to leave his role as manager. The focus now moves on to who could replace him. Today’s Toon transfer roundup looks at the potential early candidates to succeed the Spaniard, as well as the continued interest in a Bundesliga star.

Blanc and Moyes interest in manager’s job

According to the Northern Echo, Laurent Blanc has expressed his early interest in the vacant manager’s job at St. James Park. The Frenchman has not managed since 2016, however. David Moyes is reportedly also interested.

Ranieri and van Bronckhorst also looking at the role

Other reports, though, mention different names. According to Sky Sports, both Claudio Ranieri and Giovanni van Bronckhorst have registered an interested in the position left by Benitez. Ranieri left AS Roma at the end of the last campaign, whilst the Dutchman left Feyenoord at the same time.

Joelinton still on radar

The North East club will still be looking to bring in new players this summer according to the Mirror. Benitez was not keen on Joelinton, but the Newcastle chiefs are still interested in the Hoffenheim forward, who would reportedly cost over £30m.

Without a doubt, Jean Michael Seri did not have the strongest of seasons following his £27m move from Nice to Fulham last summer.

After a particularly bright 2016/17 Ligue 1 campaign and previous interest from Barcelona, much was expected of the 27-year-old. However, in the end, he proved to be a huge disappointment, though that has not stopped his name from being linked with a host of clubs this transfer window.

And that includes Crystal Palace, with Football.London one outlet to report that the Premier League outfit are interested in signing the Ivorian midfielder.

Roy Hodgson, though, faces fighting a losing battle, with Napoli and both Milan clubs also said to be keen (Calcionapoli24.com via Football Italia).

Not only can the likes of Napoli and Inter Milan offer Seri the chance to play in the Champions League, but they also look like much better fits for the former Nice man than Crystal Palace.

One of Seri’s biggest strengths is his passing, something Football.London highlighted earlier in the season when things were going right for both him and Fulham. At either Napoli or Inter, the Ivory Coast international would surely be in a better environment to utilise that compared to Crystal Palace.

Inter and Napoli were the two highest ranked teams for possession in Serie A, averaging 56.9% and 56.8% over the course of the campaign. The Eagles, in contrast, ranked 15th in the Premier League with a significantly less 46.6% (as per WhoScored). They, of course, have lesser players than the two Italian giants.

Still, based on that and the lure of Champions League football, it is hard to imagine Seri opting for an England stay over a move to Italy if reports are true.

Manchester United fans have been reacting on Twitter to the news that Paul Pogba is more than likely to be at Old Trafford for the upcoming campaign.

According to a report by The Guardian, the possibility of the France World Cup winner leaving the club this summer is looking rather remote at the moment and no bids have been made as of yet.

Real Madrid are thought to hold an interest in the midfielder. However, they value him between £100-120million, whereas United are believed to want a fee in the region of £170m.

Despite managing to get 13 goals in his 35 Premier League matches last season and come away with figures such as 3 shots on average, 1.6 key passes and 2 fouls drawn per game for United last season, the 26-year-old continued to come in for large amounts of criticism throughout the campaign.

Indeed, the likes of Graeme Souness (in the Times, via the Express) and Roy Keane (on Sky Sports) have spoken out against the Frenchman in the past.

Pogba has hit back at the criticism he has received in the past (RMC Sport via The Sun), though he has also been criticised by the club’s own fans, as scenes from the final day home defeat to Cardiff City showed (The Mirror).

And the mood does not seem to have improved, with the news that he could be staying at Manchester United beyond the summer irking these supporters below.

Many of them took to Twitter to share some rather negative reactions to the article from The Guardian, with some of them calling for him to be sold.

Here are just some of their reactions…
