March 2026
Sherwood criticised Tudor’s methods and urged a more supportive approach as Spurs slide toward the relegation zone. Spurs are described as 16th with 29 points from 29 matches, one point above Nottingham Forest and West Ham, on a five-game losing run, while West Ham’s recent form has improved.
Paul Pogba
March 2026
Nainggolan claimed Pogba “only had three good years” and said he was better than Pogba in their Serie A era, as Pogba struggles to make an impact at Monaco in a World Cup year.

Fitness issues have limited his influence, prompting criticism like Nainggolan’s comments to Sportium.fun.
Rodri
March 2026
Reports say Madrid have stepped back from pursuing Rodri despite wanting midfield reinforcements.

The wider backdrop is uncertainty around Guardiola’s long-term future, influencing player planning at City.
Igor Tudor
March 2026
Sherwood attacked Tudor’s approach and criticised a rapid shift from confidence to public complaints about the squad.

Cristiano Ronaldo
March 2026
Marcelo described Ronaldo as an “extraterrestrial”, crediting his leadership, work ethic, and quality beyond the usual “power” narrative.

Middleton was fined $25,000 after throwing his mouthpiece toward the spectator stands. The incident occurred with 6:55 left in the third quarter of a 115-114 loss and drew a technical foul.
Mason Greenwood
March 2026
Reports suggest a summer exit is a serious possibility despite Greenwood’s strong scoring output. With Marseille facing internal tension and financial strain after a Champions League exit, a profitable sale is being considered to fund a squad refresh. L’Equipe reports concerns about Greenwood’s integration and attitude, citing him standing apart from team-mates during a shootout in a Coupe de France loss to Toulouse.
