The Houston Texans have to do everything in their power to protect their franchise quarterback, C.J. Stroud. In his second season, the signal-caller from Ohio State seems poised to lead the club to the postseason for a second straight season. Evidently, Stroud is going to have the Texans in the playoff conversation on a yearly basis, but Houston must equip him with the proper talent to do so. His weapons need to be sharp, but a stout offensive line is the most important position group for the Texans to focus on. On Tuesday, the team signed a ten-year NFL veteran…
The Chicago Bears fired their offensive coordinator Shane Waldron recently less than a year of holding the position under head coach Matt Eberflus after an up-and-down start to the 2024 season. In the interim, the Bears promoted passing game coordinator Thomas Brown as the OC to see if things will improve for the remainder of the season. Brown will have the first shot at cementing himself as the team’s next offensive coordinator if the Bears decide to hang onto Eberflus as a head coach, but the franchise could also look elsewhere for a replacement and that is where Bleacher Report’s…
Houston Texans pass rusher Will Anderson Jr. has missed the team’s past two games with an ankle injury, and it appears that he will remain on the sidelines in Week 11 against the Dallas Cowboys. The Texans have ruled Anderson out against the Cowboys, along with defensive tackle Foley Fatukasi (foot) and offensive tackle Blake Fisher (concussion). The Texans have also listed cornerbacks Kamari Lassiter (concussion) and Jeff Okudah (quad) as questionable for the game. For the Cowboys, cornerback DaRon Bland (foot), defensive back Jourdan Lewis (neck) and quarterback Dak Prescott (hamstring) have been ruled out while fullback Hunter Luepke…
The winds of change are blowing at Old Trafford. Manchester United have a new head coach, following the dismissal of Erik ten Hag – Ruben Amorim. It remains to be seen how the former Sporting CP head coach will perform at the helm – but ex-Liverpool defender Glen Johnson says he ‘can’t do any worse’ than his immediate predecessors. Johnson conceded that the United hotseat is ‘not an easy job’, noting the experienced managers who have tried and failed to capture the same level of success achieved by the great Alex Ferguson. In a way, Amorim’s lack of experience could…
Alan Shearer has heaped praise on one Liverpool player who he believes has been ‘a big reason why’ the Reds have enjoyed such a terrific start to life under Arne Slot. The BBC pundit selected four Anfield stars in his Premier League Team of the Season so far, one of whom is Ryan Gravenberch, who’s grown into one of his side’s best performers under his Dutch compatriot. Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk and Mo Salah were the other three LFC players to be included in the 54-year-old’s pick of the top-flight crop for 2024/25. Shearer full of praise for Gravenberch…
All three players are out of contract in the summer of 2025, with no new deal on the horizon for any of them. However, former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Jamie O’Hara thinks they will be more inclined to stay if the Reds can win the Premier League title this season. They look on course to do so at the moment – as things stand, Liverpool are top of the Premier League table by five points, with Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City in second. Jamie O’Hara speaks on Liverpool In an interview with Grosvenor Sport, O’Hara said: “If Liverpool win the league, I…
The renaissance of Ryan Gravenberch in the second half of 2024 shows no sign of slowing down! The Liverpool midfielder has been rejuvenated under Arne Slot in recent months, performing so consistently that Alan Shearer named him in his Premier League Team of the Season so far. The 22-year-old has gone from winning just one Netherlands cap in two years to earning five since the start of September, with each of those coming as a starter under Ronald Koeman (Transfermarkt). Gravenberch shines in Netherlands win Gravenberch produced a moment of magic during the Oranje’s 4-0 win over Hungary on Saturday…
Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk says it was “very scary” to witness Hungary assistant coach Adam Szalai collapse during Holland’s 4-0 UEFA Nations League victory on Saturday. The match in Amsterdam was abruptly paused after just seven minutes due to a medical emergency on the Hungary bench. The game was put on hold for over 10 minutes as the 36-year-old received treatment, hidden from view by players and staff members by a large white sheet. He was later applauded by the crowd as he left the stadium on a stretcher before being rushed to hospital. The Hungarian Football Association later…
The talented forward first made waves at Lille, signing his initial pro deal back in 2012. Liverpool, wowed by his potential after 16 goals in 89 games for the French side, forked out a cool £10million for him in 2014. As his chapter with Liverpool in the summer of 2022, fans sent their heartfelt farewells as Origi moved on to AC Milan in a free transfer – yet with high hopes for his future. Milan handed Origi a hefty £3.4million (€4m) annual paycheck until mid-2026, making him the second-biggest earner next to Rafael Leao. Still, after an injury-plagued arrival in…
You’d think by now Mohamed Salah would have shut down any ‘world class’ debates, but Troy Deeney isn’t sure. The Liverpool icon has won every trophy on offer for the Reds and sits fifth on their all-time scoring charts and eighth in the Premier League rankings. Salah has twice finished third in the FIFA Best Award voting, and recently became the highest scoring African in Champions League history to go along with his two Premier League Golden Boots. But for Deeney, there’s one criteria that he hasn’t fulfilled. The Watford legend and talkSPORT pundit explained: “I think Mohamed Salah is…
