While George’s problems are one thing, the team’s main concern has been Joel Embiid’s continuous absence. Embiid has been in and out of the lineup because of a knee issue. As a result, he has only played 17 games this season, and the 76ers are unable to deal their 30-year-old superstar. Bobby Marks on whether the 76ers will make Joel Embiid available…
Philippe Clement made reference to Pep Guardiola’s new-found troubles at Manchester City when pressed about the pressure he puts himself under at Rangers during Friday’s press conference.

Roy Keane became a Nottingham Forest legend during his three-year spell at the club, but the Irishman always preferred one other Premier League side. Signed in 1990 by the iconic Brian Clough, Keane became a Forest legend in his three years at the City Ground before moving to Manchester United for what was then the British record transfer fee. Remarkably, Keane was told he was too small to play football when he was just a boy in Ireland, but his incredible success at Forest and then United certainly proved that theory incorrect. Whatever the success, though, the Irish midfielder always gave credit to Forest and…

Eddie Howe has a few players out for Saturday’s non-televised kickoff between Newcastle United and Manchester City at the Etihad at 3pm.

Though it’s partially because to the lack of Thanos in the middle, we believe Howe would use this formation when against supposedly…
