      ‘So wholesome’ – Watch Saka run over to hug Henry while Arsenal legend is working as pundit for Amazon Prime

      by

      ARSENAL’S past and present were represented on Amazon Prime as Bukayo Saka and Thierry Henry shared a hug. With the return of the Premier League following a mid-season break for the World Cup, Henry also returned to the UK to work as a pundit on Amazon Prime.

      But while he was working, England World Cup star Saka ran over to the Gunners legend.
      The pair then embraced each other in a hug before Saka left to continue his warm-up ahead of the game against West Ham.
      And the “wholesome” hug left fans feeling warm and fuzzy.
      One user said: “That was wholesome seeing Saka and Henry hugging.”

      Saka was at the centre of controversy as the Gunners saw a potential goal ruled out for offside.
      The linesman flagged for offside despite it initially appearing that there was no offence.
      However, replays showed it was the right call because Martin Odegaard’s pass flicked off Saka’s heel before the ball fell to Eddie Nketiah.
      And when the touch happened the Arsenal striker was in fact in an offside position, hence denying the North Londoners an opening goal.
      But they then found themselves on the wrong end of another decision after William Saliba brought Jarrod Bowen down inside the area.
      Said Benrahma stepped up to convert the penalty past Aaron Ramsdale, much to the dismay of a returning Arsene Wenger.
      The legendary boss has returned to the Emirates for the first time since leaving the club in 2018.
      But Saka and Gabriel Martinelli have since drawn the hosts level and put them ahead in the second half.
      Meanwhile, Arsenal have submitted a £52.5million bid for Ukrainian winger Mykhaylo Mudryk. More

      The star striker almost stepped up for another spot-kick on his first Premier League match after the World Cup during the 2-2 draw with Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium.
      The 29-year-old appeared to be wrestled to the ground inside the Bees’ area by Ben Mee.
      Spurs stars were up in arms after the referee waived play on but Kane barely contested the decision.
      Manchester United legend Evra insisted that was “100 per cent” a penalty for the North Londoners.

      Evra told Amazon Prime: “It is a penalty. It is a 100 per cent penalty.
      “The only reason, and sometimes I like to make jokes, but maybe Harry is fine with that. I don’t need a penalty right now.

      Watch moment sneaky World Cup fan tries genius hack to sneak booze into Qatar stadium

      by

      THIS is the moment a World Cup fan appears to have a novel way to sneak alcohol into a Qatar stadium before a match.Footage posted on Reddit appears to show a Mexico fan being searched by a member of the security team at the ground.

      Another man wearing a black and red baseball cap can be seen talking to the security guard as he examines a pair of binoculars.
      It all looks innocent enough as the security guard puts up the binoculars to his eyes.
      But there is more to things than it first appears when the security guard then unscrews one of the lenses and then makes a gesture of raising the binoculars to his lips, as if he was drinking from it.
      It would seem the binoculars are actually a novelty flask.

      A similar product is advertised on retail site Amazon, which describes it as being “the perfect festival accessory” and is capable of holding 16oz of liquid.
      It is currently being sold for £16.95.
      Many commentators on the social media site found the brief clip hilarious.
      One said: “Hahahaha thats actually funny. The smirk at the end.”
      Most read in Football
      A second added: “”No no no, my friend…” hahaha. I love how the different ethnicities of the security agencies are figuring stuff out together.”
      Others though questioned if the binoculars actually contained hand sanitiser, rather than the suspected banned alcohol.
      However, one commentator quickly shot down that theory by writing: “I don’t think he will go through this effort to smuggle a sanitiser lol.”
      While it has not been confirmed, the fan wearing a green football shirt appears to be a Mexico supporter who went to see yesterday’s Group C game against Poland.
      The match though failed to come to life and ended up in a goalless draw.
      Barcelona’s Robert Lewandowski failed to put Poland ahead in the 57th minute after being awarded a penalty thanks to Mexico’s veteran goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa making a fantastic save.

      Later on in the match, substitute Raul Jimenez came on with 20 minutes to go, but he wasted a good break and Mexico could not create a clear-cut chance.
      Grzegorz Krychowiak fired wide in stoppage-time from distance, and Lewandowski and Poland were left to rue missing their golden opportunity.

      Man Utd could be bought by Facebook, Amazon or Dubai as trio emerge as ‘credible’ and ‘serious’ takeover contenders

      MANCHESTER UNITED could be bought by Facebook, Amazon or Dubai after being put up for sale by the Glazer family.United’s unpopular owners have announced they are “exploring strategic alternatives for the club” in what seems like the end of their turbulent 17-year reign in charge.

      According to the Daily Mail, tech giants Facebook and Amazon pose as “credible” and “serious” suitors to succeed the American billionaires.
      The same goes for sovereign states, such as Dubai who have yet to follow suit as other Middle Eastern rivals.
      Dubai could follow the example of Abu Dhabi, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, who took over Manchester City, Paris Saint-Germain and Newcastle respectively.
      The Glazers are prepared to sell the club outright, with a deal expected to be worth around £9billion.
      Read More on Man Utd
      That would make the Red Devils the most valuable sports team in the world, eclipsing the Dallas Cowboys who are said to be worth £7.23bn.
      Britain’s richest man Sir Jim Ratcliffe became the first suitor to officially make a move, while Michael Knighton has also previously expressed interest.
      However, whoever buys the Red Devils will have to consider the vast cost of redeveloping Old Trafford, which in itself could cost more than £2bn.
      A statement from the club read: “Manchester United plc, one of the most successful and historic sports clubs in the world, announces today that the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) is commencing a process to explore strategic alternatives for the club.

      “This will include an assessment of several initiatives to strengthen the club, including stadium and infrastructure redevelopment, and expansion of the club’s commercial operations on a global scale, each in the context of enhancing the long-term success of the club’s men’s, women’s and academy teams, and bringing benefits to fans and other stakeholders.” More

      Fans all saying the same thing after Amazon Prime get Potter and Frank to interview each other before Prem clash

      by

      VIEWERS hailed “refreshing” rival bosses Graham Potter and Thomas Frank – after they interviewed EACH OTHER.Chelsea chief Potter and Brentford counterpart Frank responded with “insightful” questions and answers after Amazon Prime surprised them with the unique interview set-up before Wednesday night’s 0-0 draw.

      One armchair observer posted: “That is class! Two opposing managers asking each other questions. We need to see more of this.”
      Others agreed, with comments like: “They should do this more often” and “Game. Changed.”
      Thanking the presenter, one viewer tweeted: “Well done Simon Thomas for opening this and allowing it to flow, more of this please. Brings a whole new relevant and dynamic insight into commentary and build up.”
      The innovation seemed to stun the audience at home as much as it did the two bosses on the Community Stadium pitch.

      One observer said: “That was odd but I really enjoyed it.”
      And approval snowballed on social media with posts like: “Quite refreshing to be fair.
      “Football constantly gives off the message of being very insular and impenetrable. Open discussion, seeing they are just normal people in a unique position most would give their right arm to be in. Should happen more often.”
      Another fan reckoned it’s just part of the channel’s bright coverage.

      He tweeted: ” Absolutely love this from Prime. Big fan of their coverage.”
      Quite a few viewers, however, pointed they they were still suffering major technical problems.
      One wrote: “Great idea, now please fix your streams they are buffering and awful!”
      But, when the technical side was fine, Prime won plaudits for its general coverage of the Premier League.
      These included: “Amazon have got this coverage locked, every game every goal is fantastic. Graphics spot on. Innovation pre match. The coverage is the coverage, but it looks so professional.”
      And this was a similar verdict: “Less ads, more analysis and not afraid to do things slightly different like the above content. Shame they only cover 20 games a season.”
      So what were the “penetrating” questions asked by each of the two managers?
      Frank lived up to his name with: “Why are you changing your formation so many times?”
      Jorginho and Co seemed disappointed as Chelsea were held in the PremCredit: PA
      A laughing Potter replied: “Good question!” – before explaining it depended on the differing needs of each game, such as opposition tactics.
      But he added: “Hopefully there are things that look the same even if the formation changes.”
      Consistency certainly seems a feature of Potter’s brief Chelsea reign so far as Wednesday’s tough stalemate leaves him with five wins and two draws from seven games.
      But when turning the tables on Frank, Potter considered dishing out a “hard question” before settling for a more a standard question: “The biggest difference from the Championship to the Premier League?”
      Frank’s reply to that was also by the book.
      He said: “The pace of the game, the quality of the players is crazy.

      “You can make one minor mistake and be punished every time. You just get punished so much more.”
      Frank, then, clearly won the battle when it came to choosing questions – in what was very much an interview of two halves. More
