      Jude Bellingham kicks bottle in fury after he is subbed in AC Milan defeat as Thierry Henry gives theory behind strop

      by

      VEXED Jude Bellingham booted a water bottle in frustration after he was hauled off early during Real Madrid’s 3-1 defeat to AC Milan.Both Bellingham and Los Blancos have struggled following the arrival of French superstar Kylian Mbappe, 25, at the club.Jude Bellingham kicked a water bottle in frustration after he was subbed off during Madrid’s latest Champions League defeatThe Madrid star has been starting from the left hand side this seasonThierry Henry has offered his theory about Bellingham’s frustrationsCredit: X / CBSSportsGolazoAnd the crisis sunk to new depths on Tuesday after Madrid suffered back-to-back losses at the Bernabeu. Madrid already trail LaLiga leaders Barcelona by nine points and are in the bottom half of the Champions League table.And Bellingham’s frustrations boiled over as he trudged off the pitch and let out his anger on a water bottle in the 74th minute.But Premier League legend Thierry Henry believes that Bellingham had every right to be angry with boss Carlo Ancelotti and Mbappe.READ MORE FOOTBALL NEWSHe told CBS Sports Golazo: “It’s always Bellingham trying to make the run, trying to make the team play, running in behind, trying to break the line.”I think there is a little frustration. Your nine isn’t going, and your 10 is going. I know it can happen sometimes but not all the time. Every single time.”I know he’s not a number nine and that this maybe is not what he likes to do. Do you think he likes to make those runs, try and stretch the team?”He’ll do it because he has to do it, because his desire speaks, his will speaks.Most read in FootballFOOTBALL FREE BETS AND SIGN UP DEALS”You don’t win games like that. You don’t win games with your 10 breaking the line, coming back, trying to bend his run, trying to defend, trying to go the other side. And then after, he gets substituted?”I would have been upset too – I saw him kicking a bottle. I would be upset also, of course. Watch Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham roll his eyes at how he is introduced to fans at EA FC 25 launch”For me, this is not good enough and I don’t think they are playing well as a team but on the ball also Mbappe has to do way more.”Henry then added that his compatriot must learn to play in a new position, as Vinicius Junior, who scored Madrid’s only goal of the night from the spot, will not be moved from the left wing.The Arsenal legend added: “Mbappe’s going to have to learn to play as a nine and the desire and the will of running in behind.”He will get better – he can’t be worse than this. We’re not asking him to hold the ball like Didier Drogba, who was magnificent.”We’re not asking him to get the ball and dribble past everybody. But that cannot happen all the time, a run in behind from Bellingham, when the team is high.”‘I’m not going to try to find excuses for Bellingham, but how do you play, where do you go, what do you do?”It’s going to be tough for Ancelotti to find a way so all those players can co-exist.”Carlos Ancelotti has struggled to effectively mould his elite stars after the arrival of MbappeThierry Henry has urged Mbappe to learn how to play as a nineBellingham has often been shunted to play on the left, away from his No10 role last term.The 21-year-old scored 23 goals from behind the striker in his debut season, winning both the Champions League and LaLiga.He managed 36 goal involvements in 42 appearances for Los Blancos, making him one of the club’s most influential players and earning him third place in the Ballon d’Or standings.READ MORE SUN STORIESSpanish outlets have widely reported Bellingham has “declined” since his shift to a defensive position.The England star was labelled a “shadow of his former self” after Ancelotti played him out of position during Barca’s 4-0 El Clasico thrashing.

      Viktor Gyokeres has gentleman’s agreement with Sporting that could see him join Man Utd in bargain transfer

      by

      VIKTOR GYOKERES could be up for grabs for around £63million in the summer – putting Manchester United on red alert.Sporting Lisbon’s Swedish forward enhanced his reputation with a hat-trick against City on Tuesday night.Viktor Gyokeres could be available for a cut-price dealCredit: GettyHe has a release clause in his deal at the José Alvalade Stadium which is set at around £84m and expires in 2028.However the former Coventry man is believed to have a gentleman’s agreement with the Portuguese club that will allow him to go for much less if he sees the season out with them.Sporting would look for around £67m but could accept as little as £63m.And that is likely to interest a host of Prem giants – including United, Arsenal and Chelsea.READ MORE ON MAN UTDHis outgoing boss Ruben Amorim ruled out taking him with him to United in January – but said he does expect the forward to look for a new challenge in the summer.He said: “I’ve just made peace with the Sporting fans so I’m not even going to make a joke about it.“Gyokeres is a Sporting player and it’s is a great club, he did a lot for the club. He just has to stay and finish the season at the club.”After scoring 66 goals in 67 appearances he is certain to be in demand and there is already interest from Saudi Arabia.Most read in FootballBEST FREE BET SIGN UP OFFERS FOR UK BOOKMAKERSRuben Amorim is ‘Mourinho 2.0’ who turned Sporting from ‘walking dead’ into Portuguese champs… he can revive Man UtdWHEN Ruben Amorim took charge of Sporting Lisbon in March 2020, one club official compared their situation to the “walking dead”, writes Jordan Davies.Optimism and hope was at an all-time low.But the Amorim-effect was almost instantaneous, guiding the Portuguese sleeping giants to their first league title for 19 years in 2020/21, losing just once and only conceding 20 goals.Since then, Sporting have lifted another league title in 2023/24 – as well as two League Cups – and currently sit top with nine wins from nine this term.He may be young, but Amorim already has an eye for rebuilding and revitalising fallen super powers with his infectious charisma and intense tactical philosophy that hardly ever wavers. The “walking dead” at Manchester United must be praying for a similar sort of revival.And they may just get it from one of the most talented young coaches on the continent – a man accustomed to breathing new life back into crumbling institutions such as Old Trafford.Amorim has spent the last decade dreaming of one day gracing England’s Premier League, such was his admiration for an ex-United boss in Jose Mourinho growing up.Often nicknamed ‘Mourinho 2.0’, Amorim spent a week with his coaching idol in an internship capacity at United’s Carrington training base in 2018, going on to cite him as his “reference point”.United should not be expecting a mini-Mourinho, as Amorim said himself: “Mourinho is one of a kind. There won’t be another Mourinho. Mourinho is unique.”And yet, you cannot help but compare the two.For all the mismanagement in the Old Trafford hot seats over the years, this would be a real get – finally a slap in the face United’s Prem rivals have no answer for.But United are likely to be in the market for a number nine after struggling for goals during the opening months of this season.Gyokeres admitted it is a blow for his current club to be losing Amorim.Dimitar Berbatov tips Viktor Gyokeres to follow Ruben Amorim to Man Utd He said: “We will miss him a lot. We’ve done amazing things together.“We have to look forward and attack the next challenge ahead of us.” More

      A CHELSEA cult hero looks like he hasn’t aged a day since retirement.The ex-player in question was on the touchline for AC Milan’s 3-1 win over Madrid in the Champions League last night.The Chelsea cult hero, left, is now an assistant at AC MilanHe remains a popular figure among Chelsea fans, having played for the club for nine years between 2004 and 2013.The former full-back won three Premier League titles, as well as the Champions League in 2012 and Europa League with the Blues in 2013.After winning Europe’s top competition with Porto in 2004, he followed Jose Mourinho from Portugal to West London a few months later.The 45-year-old is now an assistant coach at AC Milan.READ MORE FOOTBALL NEWSIf you haven’t already guessed, the cult hero in question is, of course, Paulo Ferreira.Ferreira followed new Milan boss Paulo Fonseca from Lille in the summer.And his new club were responsible for Carlo Ancelotti’s second European defeat of the season, as Madrid suffered back-to-back losses at the Bernabeu.

At the start of the long season with more matches in it, why would any team with ambitions to win things in the spring, go out all guns blazing in the autumn?Especially when they know they have six games NOT against big sides to make sure they accrue enough points to qualify at least for the play-off round (and even more games).There is even less jeopardy than before.Read the full column on the Champions League format fail and why everyone – including YOU – needs a rethink.
