Despite the fact that David Moyes identified a number of areas within his West Ham United squad that needed strengthening in the January transfer window, the 58-year-old ultimately failed to bring any fresh faces to the London Stadium prior to Monday evening’s deadline.

Indeed, it was reported that the Scot wanted to sign at least a new left-back, centre-back and centre-forward last month, with the club being linked with a host of different players in all three positions throughout January.

However, despite having 31 days to do business, West Ham appeared to leave the vast majority of their moves until the final day of the market, something that – rather unsurprisingly – saw the Premier League side exit the window in exactly the same condition they entered it.

So, what could West Ham’s starting XI have looked like if Moyes had managed to land his top targets last month? Here’s what we think.

While West Ham were obviously linked with more players than we have included in our failed transfer XI, including Leeds United duo Kalvin Phillips and Raphinha, as well as Atalanta centre-forward Duvan Zapata, we have decided to focus on the players for whom moves seemed to be most likely last month.

At centre-back, should West Ham have coughed up what looked to be an extremely reasonable £15m for Marseille’s Duje Caleta-Car, the 25-year-old would have undoubtedly started ahead of the likes of £67k-per-week Issa Diop – who Stuart Pearce dubbed a “colossus” – and Craig Dawson alongside Kurt Zouma in the heart of the Hammers backline.

The second missed signing comes at left-back, with RMC Sport reporting that the Irons did not make a move for the £8.1m-rated Layvin Kurzawa on deadline day as Moyes could not find Arthur Masuaku a move away from the club.

In attacking midfield, West Ham once again failed to get a deal over the line for Jesse Lingard, after Manchester United blocked both the Hammers’ and Newcastle United’s late moves for the England international – who, as he proved last season, would have made an excellent addition to the Irons’ attacking arsenal.

Finally, the last failed transfer was for Benfica hotshot Darwin Nunez, the centre-forward who appeared to be Moyes’ top target in the position as the window drew to a close, with the Scot submitting a €50m (£41.5m) offer for the 22-year-old.

Indeed, the Uruguay international would have arguably been an upgrade on Michail Antonio in leading the line for the Hammers, however, once again, a move for the £28.8m-rated sensation fell through at the 11th hour.

As such, while it would have been an extremely unlikely scenario in which the club landed all four of these signings in January, should Moyes and the West Ham board have truly wished to give themselves the best possible chance of securing a top-four finish this season, it is undeniable that these four additions to the Irons’ starting XI would have helped to fire them to the Champions League places come the end of the current campaign.

Desde os 13 anos no Corinthians, o meia Rafael Bilu viveu um momento único em sua ainda curta carreira, no última domingo, na vitória do Timão por 5 a 0 sobre o Pinheiro (MA). Estreante em Copas São Paulo de Futebol Júnior, o jogador marcou seu primeiro gol na competição e ainda deu uma assistência para o gol de Vitinho, o terceiro da equipe na goleada na Arena da Fonte Luminosa, em Araraquara (SP).

– Passou muita coisa na minha cabeça no momento em que fiz o gol. Veio desde a minha chegada ao Corinthians, passou por toda minha batalha e de minha família em busca do meu sonho em ser jogador e também pela luta para conquistar meu espaço na equipe. Ano passado fiquei de fora da Copa São Paulo e sempre foi um sonho jogar essa competição. Hoje, estou muito feliz em estar jogando esse torneio, ser titular e ainda mais, marcando um gol – disse Rafael Bilu, que tem 18 anos e é natural do bairro do Capão Redondo, na cidade de São Paulo.

Motivado, o jogador campeão Mundial e da Copa do Brasil pelo Corinthians, ambos pelo Sub-17 em 2016, vê a equipe comandada pelo técnico Dyego Coelho com boas chances de brigar pelo bicampeonato da competição. Um dos fatores que vem ajudando o grupo a ter ainda mais confiança, segundo o jogador, é o apoio da torcida em Araraquara.

– Em 2017, acabamos não tendo um grande ano de atuações e títulos. Mas hoje, vejo a equipe muito forte e em crescimento. Seria um sonho chegar à decisão no Pacaembu e conquistar esse 11º título da Copinha. O apoio da torcida também tem sido muito importante para nos motivar ainda mais e nos mostrar a grande importância que é a Copa São Paulo para o Corinthians – afirmou.

Rafael Bilu volta a campo com o Corinthians na quarta-feira, às 19h45, para o duelo contra a Ferroviária. A partida da última rodada da fase de grupos vale a liderança do Grupo 17 da Copinha, já que ambas as equipes estão na ponta da chave com seis pontos. O Timão está na liderança pelos gols marcados e se garante na ponta com um empate.

Tottenham Hotspur have a new midfielder in Rodrigo Bentancur after he signed for the north London outfit in an initial £15.9m swoop from Juventus on deadline day.

Spurs’ new man

As per the BBC, the Uruguay international – who scored for his national team late on Tuesday night in their World Cup qualifying win over Venezuela – has signed a four-and-a-half-year deal that could rise by £5m through add-ons.

He joins alongside fellow teammate Dejan Kulusevski, who has arrived on an initial loan costing £8.3m with an option to buy around £29.3m.

The 24-year-old isn’t expected to make it back to Hotspur Way in time for Saturday night’s FA Cup clash with Brighton and Hove Albion but he is likely to be in line for a debut in a week’s time when Spurs host Southampton in the Premier League.

Fabregas figure

Bentancur isn’t the creative option that Spurs have been crying out for but the Italian head coach has never really looked for someone in that calibre throughout his managerial career.

Take Cesc Fabregas for example.

Under Jose Mourinho at Stamford Bridge, the former Arsenal midfielder provided the creativity they needed to win the title in 2014/15. It was summed up by a phenomenal assist on debut that had even opposition manager Sean Dyche purring.

“The Fabregas pass is arguably the best I’ve seen in a long, long time because of the control, the awareness, the quality and shape of the pass — it lands perfectly for him (Andre Schurrle) to guide it into the goal.”

He went on to register a whopping 18 assists in that campaign.

But when Conte took the dugout the following year, he was largely resigned to the bench, barely featuring during another title-winning triumph. However, as he came around to the 52-year-old’s demands – that being a key cog in his system rather than the sole creator.

“You were a bit like a perfect machine — no freedom, but everybody knows what everybody needs to do,” Fabregas once revealed.

This is what Conte will be getting from Bentancur, something that the likes of Tanguy Ndombele and Giovani Lo Celso were probably not willing to give up, hence their departures on loan on deadline day.

Indeed, this has been backed up by The Athletic’s Italian football expert James Horncastle, who said:

“He’ll do a lot of the dirty work that will allow Spurs’ flair players to do their best work, and certainly having a lot of blue-collar players in the Conte team – he’s always valued players like that.”

The Uruguayan is certainly a reliable and durable option in the heart of the pitch, one capable of protecting the backline efficiently. No player at Juventus had managed more interceptions (73) and tackles (95) combined (168) than him since the start of the 2020/21 season.

Smarter Scout describe him as an “aggressive defender who’s an excellent tackler”, whilst Italian publication La Gazzetta dello Sport have previously described him as an “extraordinary talent” (in quotes sourced by football.london).

The £22.5m-rated beast could well emerge as Conte’s new Fabregas in north London this season.

England coach Andy Flower has given Andrew Strauss a ringing endorsement over his captaincy of the one-day side

Andrew McGlashan07-Jun-2010

England coach Andy Flower has given Andrew Strauss a ringing endorsement over his captaincy of the one-day side ahead of the series against Australia later this month following speculation that the leadership position may be under debate.Comments by Geoff Miller, the national selector, on Sunday didn’t appear to give Strauss unequivocal support when he said: “If we think it is right to go elsewhere we will do that.” Following the victory against Bangladesh at Old Trafford, Strauss was quizzed about his position but insisted he wasn’t aware of Miller’s comments and was preparing to lead the one-day team against Scotland on June 19 followed by five matches against Australia and a series against Bangladesh.Flower was surprised that Strauss had been asked to defend his position and was in no doubt that he would be the captain. “He did not mention any of that to me last night,” Flower said. “Andrew Strauss will be captaining in the one-dayers.”England’s triumphant Twenty20 campaign in the Caribbean has led to calls for the same side to be fielded in the 50-over format, but Flower is comfortable with Strauss’s role in one-day cricket and believes he had an impact on the success in the shortest format.”He is a fine leader and a fine batsman,” he said. “I think in the last 12 months he has done some really good things for us in one-day cricket. He bats aggressively up front. His specialist area is facing the quick bowling.”He has been the architect of the attacking type of cricket England’s one-day side has been playing. In a way, he was the catalyst for the attacking cricket we have been able to play in Twenty20 as well. Over the past 12 months, he has played some very good limited-overs cricket.”England will name their one-day squad on Thursday, but one man who certainly won’t be there is Steven Finn despite his Man-of-the-Series performance against Bangladesh after taking 15 wickets in two matches. The selectors have decided he requires a conditioning programme like that undertaken by Stuart Broad and won’t be considered for any ODI action ahead of the Pakistan Test series at the end of July.Flower was also keen to temper expectations for 21-year-old Finn with comparisons already being made with Glenn McGrath and talk of a vital role he can play in the Ashes series later this year.”I don’t like to make those comparisons,” he said. “Steven Finn is unique in various ways. He is very much his own man. Comparing him to other fast bowlers, to me, is not useful. But he has a lovely action.””He has been very impressive. He’s played four Test matches now, and it’s fair to say he’s learning all the time,” Flower added. “He has very, very good control for a 21-year-old fast bowler. I think that comes from his action, and also a very sound and grounded personality. It is a great start for him, but he also realises that he has great scope for learning and progress.”The position likely to create most debate for the one-dayers is that of wicketkeeper following Craig Kieswetter’s impressive performances in West Indies which followed on from his maiden hundred against Bangladesh in Chittagong. Matt Prior hit 93 at Old Trafford, but his ODI average is a mediocre 25.38 having been shunted around the order during his career and it’s unlikely there will be room for both in the squad.”Michael Slater was an attacking and quick-scoring Test player but never really fitted the bill in limited-overs cricket,” Flower said. “Matt is an attacking, often counter-attacking, batsman in Test cricket. He has had a lot of opportunities up the order in one-day cricket and has not quite grasped them, and has consequently been playing a role in the middle order.”With Prior missing out on a hundred in Manchester it means his last three-figure score for England was in Trinidad last March. Since then he has admitted to putting in a huge amount of work on his keeping, but Flower said it was important he maintained his standards in both roles.”I don’t think it needs to be a balancing act between wicketkeeping focus or batting focus,” he said. “Everybody has the time and energy to do both. There is no scope for saying you are working hard on one and therefore the other suffers, at all.”Matt, in his career with England so far, has done some really good things – with the bat and gloves. There was evidence of that again in this last Test match. He had a really good and important partnership with Ian Bell.”

Rangers are facing a situation whereby they may ‘have to cash in’ on Joe Aribo this summer, Pete O’Rourke has told Give Me Sport. 

The lowdown

Aribo is into the final 18 months of the contract he signed on his arrival from Charlton Athletic in 2019.

His current deal reportedly sees him bank £14,000 per week, which ranks outside the club’s top ten earners (via Salary Sport).

If Aribo were to stay at Rangers beyond the summer but refuse to sign a new deal, he’d be in a position to negotiate pre-contract terms with a foreign club from January 1.

And Football Insider reported last autumn that English Premier League side Crystal Palace are ‘keeping tabs’ on the midfielder.

Analyst Danny Corcoran believes he’s ‘definitely too good’ for the Scottish Premiership, noting that ‘he just waltzes past people like he isn’t even trying’.

The latest

O’Rourke believes Aribo’s future could effectively be decided in the months between now and July this year.

“It puts the pressure on Rangers maybe to have to cash in on him in the summer if they’re not able to agree on a deal,” the journalist said.

The verdict

Losing Aribo would be a real blow for Giovanni van Bronckhorst and Rangers.

He started five of their six Europa League group stage matches and has been selected for 23 of their 26 league games, indicating that he’s a key player at Ibrox.

The 25-year-old boasts a strong return of six goals and six assists in his 36 outings across all competitions.

But according to Transfermarkt, at £9million, he’s one of their three most valuable assets, and so from a business point of view, it simply wouldn’t make a sense to risk losing him for free.

When you consider the extent of Rangers’ losses, £23.5million for the year, that ‘pressure’ O’Rourke talks about becomes even greater.

Mateus Vital também falou sobre o fim do apelido de Mateus Pet, em referência a Petković. O meia do Corinthians quer usar o sobrenome também para homenagear a mãe, que morreu quando ele tinha nove anos.

– Acho que agora vou deixar Mateus Vital, para honrar o nome da minha mãe que hoje está no céu (…) Como subi para o profissional com esse nome, o pessoal estava comparando muito. Tomei a decisão com a família, até para homenagear minha mãe, ficou melhor. Sou o Mateus, o Pet é o Pet. Mas qualquer nome que levar na camisa quero mostrar meu melhor, meu futebol – disse o jogador, que recordou a trajetória sem sua mãe.

– Comecei no Vasco com cinco anos, aos nove perdi minha mãe voltando de um treino, foi um baque na minha vida. Pensei em parar, mas meu pai e minhas irmãs me ajudaram. E o Vasco esteve do meu lado a todo momento, uma psicóloga ficou quase 24h comigo. Claro que ao chegar aqui passa um filme forte, foi o momento mais difícil da minha vida. Quero pensar em jogar futebol – declarou.

Mateus Vital foi o quarto reforço apresentado pelo Corinthians, após as apresentações de Juninho Capixaba, Renê Júnior e Júnior Dutra. O Timão deve apresentar nos próximos dias o zagueiro Henrique e o atacante Emerson Sheik.

An unbeaten ton from Zimbabwe captain Peter Moor was not enough to stretch South Africa who won the fifth match easily to complete a 5-0 drubbing of the hosts in the Youth ODI series

Cricinfo staff11-Jul-2010
Scorecard
An unbeaten ton from captain Peter Moor led a creditable recovery for Zimbabwe Under-19s after a disastrous start, but it was not enough to stretch South Africa who won the fifth match easily to complete a 5-0 drubbing of the hosts in the Youth ODI series.South Africa inserted Zimbabwe and tormented them with the new ball, as Chad Fortune and Rabian Engelbrecht reduced them to 10 for 3 in the fifth over. The visitors would have harboured hopes of rolling Zimbabwe over for another paltry score, but Moor was determined to change the pattern observed through the series. He counter-attacked in style, cracking five fours and two sixes to bring up 50 in 48 balls. Tinotenda Mutombodzi did the sensible thing by giving his captain the strike in an 85-run stand for the fifth-wicket towards which Mutombodzi contributed 28. Nathan Waller who came next stepped up a gear as Moor raised 70 in his company in 13 overs. Riyaad Henry who suffered the most from the onslaught managed to dismiss Waller in the 47th over. That hampered Zimbabwe’s quest to push on towards the end, with Moor slowing in the latter stages of his innings. He finished with 116 off 120 balls, as Zimbabwe cobbled up a score of 218.Zimbabwe’s hopes of grinding out a comsolation win were quashed in clinical style by South Africa’s openers Quinton de Kock and Keaton Jennings. The hosts’ attack was unable to make an impression as the two batsmen went about their job without fuss, mindful of the manageable asking rate. The verdict was all but sealed by the time they were seperated at 159 in the 35th over, de Kock missing a ton by six runs. Jennings was slower in his scoring and finished unbeaten on 84 off 131 balls when the win was sealed.There was some consolation for Moor, whose innings earned him the Man-of-the-Match award, and he was keen on avenging his side’s defeat in the two Twenty20 games to be played on Monday. “We will take note of the positives from this series and surely use them in the next game. We came out more motivated and determined and the Twenty20 matches will be the last port of call for us to implement what we learnt,” the Zimbabwe captain said.
