Carlo Ancelotti: Alex Iwobi’s quality can make Everton better
Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti says Alex Iwobi’s pace, hardwork and quality can help in making the Toffees a better team in certain situations. Ancelotti stated this ahead of Everton’s Premier League tie against Southampton this weekend with the duo of James Rodriguez and Richarlison out. The potential absence of both James and Richarlison will present starting opportunities for members of Ancelotti’s squad short on top-flight action this term. And among those vying for a first Premier League start this term is Iwobi, who dazzled after replacing Richarlison in the opening half of Everton’s victory over Brighton & Hove Albion prior to this month’s international break. “We have to put in other players who have the desire to play,” said Ancelotti. “We are working this week on this and I ...
‘Bielsa would make him a top player’ – Some Leeds fans react to links with 22-yr-old attacker
Leeds United have been linked with a move for Daniel James from Manchester United. The talented young winger was linked with a move to Elland Road before he joined the Premier League giants last summer. It will be interesting to see if the Whites can sign the 22-year-old in the coming weeks. James has fallen down the pecking order at Old Trafford and he needs to play regularly at this stage of his career. A move to Leeds United could be ideal for the Manchester United player right now. He is likely to get more first-team chances at Leeds United and Marcelo Bielsa could help him develop as a player. James picked up four goals and seven assists for Manchester United last year. James will add pace and unpredictability to the Leeds United attack if he joins them. Furthermore, he played on both...

The Oyo State chapter of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has reaffirmed support and loyalty to its governorship candidate in the 2019 elections, Senator Olufemi Lanlehin, promising to stand by him in “whatever political decisions he makes.” The party stated this in a communiqué at the end of its meeting held in Ibadan, at the weekend, against the background of the breakdown of the coalition over non-fulfilment of the agreement reached before the election.

ADC leadership, in the communiqué jointly signed by Reverend Ezekiel Adeniran and Pastor David Orolade, acting state chairman and assistan...
