The BBC and ITV have declined to pursue the chance to televise this summer’s Club World Cup, leaving Fifa increasingly concerned about the visibility of its flagship new tournament in a key market. The streaming platform Dazn agreed to pay $1bn (£787m) for global Club World Cup rights in a deal which involved the company pledging to make all 63 matches available free-to-air on its app. Dazn has also agreed to sublicense the tournament to bigger broadcasters in certain key territories in an attempt to gain larger audiences for Fifa and its commercial partners, with Warner Bros picking up the rights in the United States, and is seeking a similar deal in the UK. Dazn remains confident of securing an agreement, with Channel 4 or Channel 5 the most likely partners.
We’ve known how **** Yanited have been for years but Man City don’t look much better. Boring, boring game. At the very least, I’d expect some aggression and passion in a cross-city derby. A bust-up to make it interesting and fire the crowd up. Nope. It’s like a pre-season friendly.
On a related note, his end product and decision-making might be frustrating but wingers like Doku are far more entertaining to watch than ‘ball-retention’ wingers like Foden and Grealish who just endlessly recycle possession. Foden and Grealish have more technical ability but fullbacks hate defending against direct wingers like Doku.
man city started the season with 7 wins 2 draws.....if rodri had gotten injured early this could have genuinely been a mid table nothing to play for bobfest
How can teams like Bournemouth etc take United apart but city still struggle? that was genuinely as **** as it gets
Man City have been found out. If Liverpool don’t keep hold of Salah, Van Dyke, Trent AA expect a surprise winner next year. Man U and Chelsea nothing special and Arsenal not good enough over a season.
Based on what I've seen of United this season, they have looked up for the big games and not done badly in them, but then they've been beaten by the likes of Bournemouth, Palace, Wolves and West Ham They don't really have the players willing to roll up their sleeves and get dirty with the "lesser" teams when then they need to
Looks like hamburg without walter Are promoted And like us Massively benefitting him being gone ****e manager
And Strasbourg getting their fifth straight win moving into a Euro qualifying place... Swapping out Rosenior for Walter was as bad as ... I can't even think of a metaphor to compare.
