An email: \u201cRe: the Jesse Lingard move to Corinthians. Jamal Lewis went on loan to Sao Paolo in September 2024 so I think Lingard will become the second Englishman to play in the Brazilian top flight,\u201d writes Adam Griffiths, who is correct \u2026 but I\u2019m not going to let that stop me splitting hairs. While Lewis is English and did indeed play six times for Sao Paolo, scoring one goal, he is a Northern Ireland international. Anyway, good spot, Adam.<\/p>\n
Share<\/a><\/p>\n Brentford: Having signed a new and improved long-term deal with Brentford last week, Keith Andrews has been further rewarded with a nomination for Ferbuary\u2019s manager of the month.<\/p>\n \u201cListen, it is nice of course but it is just a testament to the work that has gone on and the level of the performances the boys have produced, especially away from home, during this period,\u201d he said, ahead of his side\u2019s FA Cup<\/a> match against West Ham on Monday night.<\/p>\n \u201cI think the work that goes into it from everybody has got us to that point over a period of time, which we have worked tirelessly to get to. So it is nice to see it come to fruition in some big games – and, of course, it is a nice pat on the back for everybody that has played a huge part in it.\u201d<\/p>\n Brentford winger Dango Ouattara has also been nominated for February\u2019s player of the month award, while Rico Henry will miss Monday night\u2019s match with a hamstring injury and is expected to be out for what Andrews described as \u201ca decent amount of time\u201d.

Sitting just three points above the drop zone on 31 points, their safety is far from assured, even if they are best placed of the six teams circling the drain to stay up.<\/p>\n \u201cI trust my players and I trust the group,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t agree that results on other pitches are going against us. It\u2019s good fun to analyse other results, but I\u2019m not sitting on my sofa biting my nails and hoping West Ham or Nottingham Forest lose.<\/p>\n \u201cWe need seven to nine points in order to stay in this league, that\u2019s a fact. For me, the crunch time is the last six games. We have three games where we could even win the points before [the end of the season] to ease the pressure on those last six games.<\/p>\n \u201cIf we don\u2019t do this then we don\u2019t deserve to play in the Premier League next season, but what we have shown so far gives me lots of confidence in this group. I stay calm, concentrated and focused. If we win seven to nine points, we will be safe in the end. I\u2019m confident we have more than enough to get the points we need.\u201d<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Leeds United: Daniel Farke learned today that he has received a one-match touchline ban on the back of the red card he was shown for approaching referee Peter Bankes on the pitch at the end of the game following Leeds\u2019 defeat to Manchester City. He was asked about his punishment in the press conference he gave ahead of Leeds\u2019 FA Cup<\/a> fifth round tie against his former side Norwich City at Elland Road on Sunday.<\/p>\n \u201cI think the message I will take is that I will never jog on the pitch again because I was accused of entering the pitch and confronting the referee,\u201d he said. \u201cI did my jogging and I won\u2019t again because I probably look a bit scary when I jog. I still think it wasn\u2019t the right decision to show me a red card because, even if I jogged, it isn\u2019t right to be given a red card anyway.<\/p>\n \u201cThere was not one bad word, no accusation or no bad language or whatever. I think the red card shouldn\u2019t stand, however I haven\u2019t appealed the one-match ban for one simple reason: because if I appeal and the panel comes together for two weeks, we speak again about this topic and then the decision is made. I don\u2019t think it makes sense to talk more about this topic and that\u2019s why I\u2019ve simply accepted the ban.\u201d<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Wrexham: Thirty-four years on from Mickey Thomas\u2019 famous free-kick winner against Arsenal, the Welsh club are seeking another statement win over Chelsea, writes Will Unwin \u2026<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Sunderland: With his side\u2019s Premier League<\/a> status secured following their win over Leeds in one of the most terrible games of football ever played at Elland Road or anywhere else on Tuesday night, Regis Le Bris takes Sunderland to Port Vale on Sunday, where they\u2019ll play the League One\u2019s bottom side on a threadbare pitch that could be ripe to stage an upset.<\/p>\n \u201cWe have to adapt because you can\u2019t play next to your box and it is especially hard to play short because the risk is high,\u201d said Regis. \u201cBut I don\u2019t want to highlight this part of the game too much. Football is unpredictable. You have to adapt and find creative solutions. We will have to be pragmatic.\u201d<\/p>\n Despite Port Vale\u2019s lowly position, Le Bris insisted his team won\u2019t be taking their hosts lightly. \u201cYou need to earn it because it won\u2019t be easy,\u201d he said of victory. \u201cIt\u2019s a specific context, especially with them playing against a Premier League team, so they will play with this X factor.

I realise the two outcomes aren\u2019t directly related, but ignoring the league last season to concentrate on Europe, got the team used to losing league games. Is the Championship an opportunity for a much needed reset and rebuild?\u201d<\/p>\n From Spurs fan Martin Bolme: \u201cAs a Spurs supporter I have seen some strange things the last 35 years, but this is actually scary now,\u201d he writes. \u201cMy main question: will they survive in the championship next year? I suspect most players will be sold at a huge discount, bur who will remain? Maybe the young ones will take one season before moving on, but will that be enough? Lets say Gray, Bergvall, Tel, Souza and Kinsk\u00fd stays. Maybe Danso. Who will buy the players needed to survive in the Championship?

All England\u2019s goals against Ukraine came in the second half and ahead of tomorrow\u2019s match, Sarina Wiegman has been preaching the virtue of patience if her Lionesses are slow in scoring against an Iceland team cthey are heavy favourites to beat.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s very important,\u201d she said. \u201cThat\u2019s what we showed on Tuesday. Of course we wanted to score goals in the first half and we did have some opportunities, but the team showed that we could do better. We stuck with the plan and everyone kept doing their tasks together. We didn\u2019t start doing things on our own because that doesn\u2019t help in those moments. We just stayed calm, kept doing our task and got some opportunity up front. In the moments where we lost the ball, we won it back so quickly as well. That says a lot about the mentality of my team.\u201d<\/p>\n Iceland lost 3-0 against Spain on Tuesday in Castellon, but held out against the current world champions for 39 minutes. Only the winners of Group A3 qualify directly for the 2027 World Cup in Brazil without having to go through playoffs.

And you know what it brings to mind? Tottenham.<\/p>\n \u201cOne of the main reasons the atmosphere at the ground has been so toxic over the past two years is that the ticket prices naturally raise expectations of quality, and naturally produce more wrath when that is not reflected in the quality of the spectacle.<\/p>\n \u201cMan Utd and Spurs are similar in some ways – both huge clubs for whom relegation seemed impossible, but for whom chronic mismanagement has led to a huge lowering of footballing standards. If I were Big Sir Jim, I\u2019d be most careful about a quick money grab from fans when all that will do is make them more impatient.\u201d<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Chelsea: Liam Rosenior takes his side to Wales, where they will play Wrexham at the Racecourse Ground. Two months into the job, Rosenior has already masterminded FA Cup<\/a> wins over Charlton Athletic and Hull City and hopes to add a third Championship scalp to this season\u2019s collection tomorrow evening as he bids to win his first trophy as Chelsea head coach.<\/p>\n \u201cIt is why I am here,\u201d he told reporters. \u201cIt is what you dream of as a player, coach or manager. The FA Cup is an amazing competition with tradition and history, but what we have to do tomorrow is not think about the trophy or finals and concentrate on Wrexham.<\/p>\n \u201cIf I go back to the Charlton or Hull game, what pleased me most was the application of the players. I thought we were excellent, and we will have to be at the same level at least to win the game tomorrow. It is what you work for, but if you focus on the trophy at the end of the season you probably aren\u2019t going to win anything. It is all about the next game, it really is.<\/p>\n \u201cThe players are in a really good frame of mind. The Aston Villa performance and result has given us confidence, but we need to focus on this game and make sure we come through the other side.\u201d<\/p>\n Rosenior told reporters that tomorrow\u2019s game has come to soon for Estevao and Jamie Gittens, who are both back in training as they recover from injury.<\/p>\n Liam Rosenior says there is \u201ca good energy and good vibe\u201d around tomorrow\u2019s FA Cup opponents Wrexham.

I think they should review it. I think they should come to the clubs and speak to the players.<\/p>\n \u201cThey need to try to really explain to them what is a foul, what contact is and how far you can go with contact, so that the players are more clear on their actions. We are seeing things that are not normal. I consider many of them fouls. The contact, the holding, the grabbing, the blocks. The contact allowed on the goalkeepers which makes their life very, very difficult.\u201d<\/p>\n Nuno Espirito Santo wants more input from referees to help sort out set-piece shenanigans.

But let\u2019s be honest Spurs are a very poor side (hardly a team) and if I had any influence as a season ticket holder (which I don\u2019t) I would want to see most of the current squad gone. Only Archie Gray puts in 90 minutes of effort which in current times is about 115 minutes. If Poch returns we should see Connor earn his Spurs.\u201d<\/p>\n Would Mauricio Pochettino fancy muddying his spats in the Championship?

The Portuguese head coach did, however, tune in to see Tottenham’s Premier League<\/a> defeat at the hands of Crystal Palace last night, a loss that was simultaneously shocking and completely unsurprising.<\/p>\n \u201cWe see all the games,\u201d he said. \u201cWhat we know is that we cannot influence anything. We are just spectators, so it doesn\u2019t mean anything for us. We are still in the same situation. We have a lot of work in front of us. I watched some moments. What I watch at home is not important. I\u2019m trying to tell you that we watch all of the matches but we know that it\u2019s all about us. We cannot control anything that happens in other stadiums. We can influence in our games, and this is our main focus.\u201d<\/p>\n On his own side\u2019s recent resurgence, Nuno had this to say: \u201cIt wasn\u2019t me, it was the players. The players have been able to improve our game. The results are helping, so is the atmosphere and the mood, it is all much better.\u201d<\/p>\n West Ham have taken 14 points from the last 24 available and currently sit in 17th place, level on poiunts with Nottingham Forest and just one behind a Tottenham team that has lost seven of their last 10 league games and is yet to win a top flight game this year.

To be honest, I\u2019m not surprised at that from Scholesy. He was the quietest player I\u2019ve ever played with in my entire career. Now, in the media, he drops bombshells.<\/p>\n \u201cI really don\u2019t understand the lack of support behind Michael Carrick, he\u2019s one of us and he\u2019s doing very well. There\u2019s been negative analysis from Scholesy, but also from Roy Keane and Gary Neville. It annoys me because we want to be in the top four, and those comments are unnecessary, but this is what you do when you work in TV. You can\u2019t be positive, you have to be negative.<\/p>\n \u201cMost of these guys get a managerial job and get fired straightaway. I said to Neville: \u2018It\u2019s easy to talk on TV. When you were at Valencia, they asked you for paella, and you gave them fish and chips\u2019. After three months, they said goodbye.<\/p>\n \u201cPeople can\u2019t forget what they have done as a manager. As players, they\u2019re legends, but as managers, they haven\u2019t done a great job.
