Wembley Travels

The England Football Association has asked world football governing body FIFA to decide the punishment for Dele Alli quick.

The FA is being proactive to avoid the talented Spurs forward being banned for matches that would run into next year’s finals.

The England international was caught on camera when he raised his middle finger. While he claims the act was intended towards his former teammate Kyle Walker, he was facing the direction of the French referee Clement Turpin that officiated the game. If Alli is found guilty he faces up to four-game ban.

The FA wants any possible ban to be cancelled in forthcoming qualfiers against Slovenia and Lithuania in early October. England are atop Group F in the European qualification race. They are likely to seal their spot at the finals next year with a victory over Slovenia on October 5. Continue reading ENGLAND WANTS FIFA VERDICT ON DELE ALLI QUICK

England women football team star Millie Bright says she has always looked up to former Chelsea star John Terry.

“I’ve always looked up to John Terry, he’s a massive defender and a rock. His one-v-one defending and reading of the game have really educated me. I watch a lot of clips of him,” she says.

Bright praised the positioning skills of her role model, claiming it is “the basis of Terry’s game.” She says trusts her natural instincts a lot and tries not to overthink things.

“If you think too much, that’s when the mistakes come in. Keep it basic is what I’ve been doing well – winning my headers and making sure I win my one-v-one battles. Often your natural instinct tells you whether to hold or go,” she added. Continue reading MILLIE BRIGHT SEES JT AS INSPIRATION

England was beaten 3-2 by France in an international friendly, but there are now many questions that are being raised.

France was the much better team and manage to beat England comfortably even with ten matches for most of the second half. They were creating occasions whenever they wanted, and England failed to match the pace and the strength that they had all around the pitch.

To make matters worse, the England manager Gareth Southgate chose to experience a new formation in this match, and the England players were confused about their position on the pitch. The England central defenders were dragged out of position quite easily with the pace and the trickery of the French attacking players. Continue reading England lack quality players

Vauxhall is set to end its sponsorship deal with England when the current contract expires in 2018 after the World Cup in Russia.

The car company issued a statement that says it would sever links with the national football associations after the World Cup.

“Vauxhall Motors today announced that it will be stepping down from its role as lead sponsor of the England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland football teams beyond the World Cup in 2018.

“Vauxhall has, however, agreed to explore other opportunities to continue its relationship with the FAs beyond the conclusion of the existing contracts. Since 2011, Vauxhall has been very proud to be the lead sponsor for each of the four home nations football associations, the first time this has ever been undertaken by a major organization,” the statement from the company read.

The deal gives at least £6million to the English FA – an agreement reached in 2011 but subsequently renewed. The firm has been actively involved in the tournaments of the teams, with the most recent being Euro 2016 in France. Continue reading VAUXHALL TO END ENGLAND SPONSORSHIP AFTER 2018 WORLD CUP

New England manager Gareth Southgate believes that England players should learn to become tougher mentally.

For the England manager, the national selection has some great players and that they are as good as any other teams. However, he believes that England players have a mental problem and that they struggled to cope mentally in the big games.

He said that the players should learn to play under pressure and to cope with the idea that they are among the favorites at tournaments. He said that this is normal given the fact that the Premier Leauge is considered as being the best league in the world and there will be expectations for the England national team to challenge for trophies.

Liverpool is worried after there were reports that forward Adam Lallana got injured whilst on international duty for England national team.

“It was a great shame because I’ve really enjoyed working with him. He’s an intelligent, very talented footballer who’s adding goals to his game for England. He was quite key to how we were wanting to play,” Gareth Southgate said after the game.

The interim manager is unsure of the extent of the damage. Reds manager Jurgen Klopp would not be happy with the news as the Englishman has featured in every game for Liverpool this season. Liverpool are currently the log leaders in the Premier League and they would be keen on keeping things that way in the face of close competition from Chelsea, Manchester City, and Arsenal in the top four.

While everyone else is upset with Big Sam for him shaming the post of a Three Lions’ coach, Wayne Rooney is upset with him for a different reason.

As per Rooney, he was pained to hear that from Sam because he had obeyed his orders only and did nothing by himself.
Rooney disclosed that when the Three Lions boarded the flight from Slovakia, he and Sam had a word and Sam conveyed his apology. But, even after that apology of the coach, he couldn’t get over it and the disappointment still remained.

A daily quoted Rooney as, “It’s not that I consider myself the boss and I put my name on the team-sheet myself. If my name is on the name-sheet, it’s because of the coach and it’s only the coach who tells me where I should be playing.”
