Prediction: West Brom win

Bookmaker: 

We re entering slightly unknown territory this week with all FA Cup fifth round ties being set to take place across the next few days as opposed to at the weekend. There are sixteen teams left in the race to win football s oldest club competition, and while the big boys are still in play, there s a very real chance that one of the lesser fancied sides could go all the way. Today we ll be taking a look at two such examples as West Bromwich Albion prepare for the arrival of Newcastle United.

West Brom

While nothing is certain in a league like the Championship it certainly seems as if the Baggies are on their way back to the big time. They know how to handle this division and through an ambitious manager…

Newcastle pull off club-record Almiron deal

Newcastle United have completed a club-record deadline-day move for midfielder Miguel Almiron from Atlanta United.

The on-off move had been mooted since December, when Almiron led Atlanta to MLS Cup glory, and was finalised on Thursday as Newcastle splashed out a reported £20.5million on the Paraguay international.

The deal sees the Premier League s longest standing club-record broken, with the Magpies belatedly agreeing a deal to surpass their £16.5m signing of Michael Owen in 2005.

Almiron was nominated for the MVP award in MLS in 2018, having quickly established himself as one of the league s standout stars after arriving at the expansion side the previous season.

The 24-year-old scored 21 goals in 62 regular season MLS games, contributing 28 assists…

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp determined to enjoy ‘nerve-wracking’ title run-in

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp accepts there will be more nerve-wracking moments to come in the title race but is determined to enjoy it.

After conceding after 90 seconds against Brighton they fought back to win 2-1 with goals from Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah and, after hanging on towards the end, they finished the day top of the table after Manchester City’s goalless draw with Arsenal.

With nine matches to go for the Reds, including games against Manchester United, Tottenham and Aston Villa – sixth, fifth and fourth respectively – there are likely to be more twists and turns but Klopp is keen to make the most of his final season at Anfield.

Arteta hails ´phenomenal´ Gunners after win at Chelsea puts them top

Mikel Arteta saluted his phenomenal Arsenal side after they returned to the top of the Premier League with a 1-0 derby win at Chelsea.

Gabriel Magalhaes capitalised on poor Blues defending to score the only goal of the game in the second half, tapping in a Bukayo Saka corner that evaded everyone and gifted the defender a chance he could not miss.

Chelsea did not pose a threat as their 12-match unbeaten home run came to an end, with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang starved of service in his first match against his former club before he was hauled off in the second half.

Arsenal comfortably saw out a third consecutive win at Stamford Bridge for the first time since 1974, moving two points clear of Manchester City at the summit.

Gunners head coach Arteta expects an…

Manning not dwelling on past glory

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning believes his side s 2008 Superbowl victory will have no impact on this year s decider.

Manning and his team-mates were 17-14 winners against the New England Patriots in Arizona in the 2008 showpiece and the same teams will meet again in Indianapolis on Sunday.

What happened in the last Superbowl doesn t matter, Manning said.

I think we have 16 guys, New England s only got seven guys, who were on that team, so a lot of guys who are going to be key factors in this game did not play in that last Superbowl. I think we have to have the mind-set that s it s a new game.

It didn t really matter who the opponent was. I just wanted to be here (at the Superbowl).

I m happy just to be here, and I know we re going…

Stuart Maynard keen for Notts County to build on long-awaited home win

Stuart Maynard felt a sense of relief after Notts County secured their first home win in 2024 with a 3-0 triumph over Harrogate.

Goals from Macaulay Langstaff, Jodi Jones and Jim O’Brien was enough for a vital three points for the Magpies boss, who had seen his side lose five times during a seven-match winless run at Meadow Lane following his appointment.

“I am relieved because I know how much it means to the fans,” said Maynard.

“I know how much it means to everyone around the football club to get that good feeling again so that was key.

“We need to make this place a fortress and that is what you need every week. You saw the atmosphere and the way they clapped the lads off at the end.

“Since I have been here, I know it has been diffic…

Shenmue 3 Publisher Teases “Upcoming Announcements” for “the Next Phase of Shenmue’s Legacy”

Whether or not we’ll see a Shenmue 4 at any point in the not-too-distant future (or ever) is anyone’s guess, but it does seem like Shenmue 3, at the very least, has some life left in it yet. The long-awaited title launched in 2019 for PS4 and PC after it had looked increasingly unlikely for years that it would ever happen, only for it to fail to commercially perform at a level that would warrant a quick turnaround for another sequel.

Recently, however, on the occasion of Shenmue 3’s fifth anniversary, it was revealed that publishing rights for the game had passed from Deep Silver to ININ, and ININ seems to be teasing upcoming announcements related to the game.

“This exciting transfer coincides with two…
