Jol won´t let Johnson go cheaply

Trent Alexander-Arnold will be a potential World Cup liability if England boss Gareth Southgate takes the plunge and picks the Liverpool right-back, according to Gary Neville.

Despite playing a starring role in Premier League and Champions League games for Liverpool, Alexander-Arnold s defensive shortcomings have caused concern.

He has been consistently terrific when attacking, but with England s defence likely to come under heavy strain the deeper they go in the Qatar 2022 finals, Neville doubts Alexander-Arnold is the man for the job.

Southgate is expected to name his squad on Thursday, and Neville said: It s a really tough one because his brilliance going forward is out of this world, but we re talking about knockout football, and how are England going to win …

Bayern Munich s Ivica Olic said he will not be leaving the club in January despite being linked with a move away from the Allianz Arena.

The experienced Croatia international has endured an injury-plagued spell of late and has fallen down the pecking order in Jupp Heynckes side.

Olic is out of contract at the end of the season and has attracted interest from teams in Germany, Italy and Spain, but the striker said Bayern had made it clear he was going nowhere.

They (Bayern Munich) say they are relying on me and that selling me is not an option, the 32-year-old told Sportske Novosti.

I had told them I d wanted to go and had some great offers but they didn t want to discuss it. They even told me I would be punished if I continued to talk about leaving.

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini says his squad lacks depth, despite the Italian spending lavishly on players since his arrival in 2009.

Mancini has recently been vocal about what he believes is a player shortage at the Premier League leaders, with strikers Mario Balotelli and Eden Dzeko both injured, while Yaya and Kolo Toure will be missing throughout January due to African Nations Cup duty with Ivory Coast.

Despite Gareth Barry returning from suspension in time for their up-coming Carling Cup clash with Liverpool, Mancini will also be without influential centre-back Vincent Kompany, who has received a four-match ban following his dismissal in the FA Cup defeat to Manchester United.

All the people think we have a lot of players, said Mancini. But we have …

If the new cinematic trailer for Assassin’s Creed Shadows didn’t provide enough about the open-world action RPG, a new breakdown is available that goes into more detail. Creative directorFruit Slot Games Jonathan Dumont and assistant director of cinematic design Akim Milne talk about the presentation, including the use of split screens in the trailer and the game’s setting.

The split-screen is noteworthy because of the first encounter between Naoe and Yasuke, the game’s protagonists. It’s slanted, implying a difference in perspective and almost a hostile feeling. When they meet again later, it’s like they see more eye-to-eye.

The developers also provide a ti…

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is going to be a significant release not only because it’s a new Zelda game, or because it’s a new traditional entry (something few expected to see again), but also because it will be the first mainline entry in the series to star the eponymous Princess Zelda as the main playable protagonist. But though she is obviously going to be the star of the show, it seems like she will still be at least partially sharing the spotlight with Link, who’s usually the series’ main protagonist.

That’s per the game’s recently published ESRB rating, which reveals that Link will still be playable in the upcoming action-adventure title.

The game’s ESRB summary reads, “This is an…

Studio Zero’s Metaphor: ReFantazio is out in a little over two weeks, and thus far, we’ve seen everything from combat, dungeons, and exploration to optional activities (like Bounties), the story, and even some new allies like Eupha. However, one question remains: How long is the experience?

After all, director Katsura Hashino’s last title, Persona 5, has a long runtime – HowLongToBeat estimates 97.5 hours to finish the story on average. Completionists will need 173 hours to mop up everything. Speaking to Vandal, Hashino said that Metaphor: ReFantazio will be able to “catch up to that.”

“Persona 5 was a very bulky game, a very robust game, and this Metaphor: ReFantazio will be ab…

Cesc Fabregas was delighted that Chelsea s wait for Champions League football was ended with a thumping 6-0 win over Qarabag.

Antonio Conte s men cast the visiting minnows aside at Stamford Bridge in a convincing display that included first Chelsea goals for Davide Zappacosta and Tiemoue Bakayoko on Tuesday.

And after missing out on European action last season, Fabregas was relieved to be back on form in the competition.

We have been waiting for a long time to be back playing in the Champions League, he told BT. Finally it arrived. It was a good performance and a good result.

You never know if these goals can count [for something] at the end of the group stage. We just have to keep going now.

The result equals our best ever win in the Champion…

Grinding Gear Games is preparing to launch Path of Exile 2 into early access today at 11 AM PST, and thus far, it’s surpassed expectations. Game director Jonathan Rogers revealed that the action RPG has already crossed one million key redemptions, and sales are still rising. While the success is good, he confirmed that the team was unprepared for such demand.

The launch weekend will likely see queues for players since GGG initially prepared server capacity for one million players. Though it’s since ordered additional cloud capacity, Rogers says, “We don&#Sports Betting8217;t know what our backend services are going to be able to handle as we go above a million users.

Spanish daily newspaper that Real Madrid have submitted a fresh proposal for Bayern Munich hotshot David Alaba.

Los Blancos seem determined to lure the Austrian defender to Santiago Bernabeu this summer and they recently had a €50 million proposal rejected for the highly rated footballer.

According to AS, Real Madrid have now submitted a new offer worth €65 million and they are awaiting response from Munich.

The Bavarians are believed to be holding out for €80 million, while the player himself is reportedly tempted by the possibility of joining los Blancos.

Real Madrid officials have held several meetings with the player’s representatives and they hope they will be able to wrap up the deal before the end of the summer transfer window.
