Riccardo Montolivo has offered his take on the current situation at AC Milan, even comparing it to the Rossoneri team of his day, and it is not positive. Regardless of the current position of this Milan team, there is a rebuild happening at the club. However, results should not have dwindled this much, especially when we look at the amount invested on the pitch. Two questions arise from that then: Are the players struggling to hit the levels expected or them, or are the people recruiting the talent looking for the wrong players in the wrong places? Ultimately, at a…
Calciomercato.com write that the defeat against Napoli ‘has the flavour of a surrender by Milan’. Bologna are the team that are currently in fourth place and they are nine points away, yet the most worrying thing is that the Rossoneri are languishing down in ninth place. Milan are thus currently divided between aiming for the Conference League and the hope of winning the Coppa Italia to at least secure a pass for the Europa League. This Milan, however, starts as a clear underdog against an Inter launched towards the 21st Scudetto in its history. With eight games to go, the…
Jaime Jaquez Jr. is going back to the Final Four, a family bucket-list goal that sister Gabriela Jaquez now also has made a reality. More precisely, Jaime Jaquez is going to the women’s Final Four. Fortunately, for the Miami Heat guard, this year’s women’s Final Four not only is in Tampa, but with the national semifinals on Friday and the championship game on Sunday, in each case on a Heat day off amid a Kaseya Center homestand. Having come up short in his 2021 trip to the men’s Final Four during his four seasons with the Bruins, the Heat guard…
AC Milan find themselves in a terrible position this season, and if they do not find a solution quickly, things will only get worse. Barring moments, this season has been massively underwhelming for Milan, and whilst the easily identifiable stats prove this, for example, the table and points collected, there are a few underlying statistics which cause some frustration. Starting with comebacks, something which has been a theme of the second half of this season. As Milan Press write, the Rossoneri have put themselves in that position in nine of 13 Serie A games since Conceicao has joined the club.…
The Boston Celtics will look to extend their winning streak to nine games when they battle the Memphis Grizzlies in a key interconference matchup on Monday night. Boston is coming off a 121-111 win at San Antonio on Saturday, while Memphis dropped a 134-127 decision to the Los Angeles Lakers that same night. The Celtics (55-19), who are second in the Eastern Conference, are a league-best 31-7 on the road in 2024-25. The Grizzlies (44-30), fifth in the West, are 25-12 on their home court. Memphis fired head coach Taylor Jenkins last week and interim head coach Tuomas Iisalo will…
In an unexpected turn of events, the Memphis Grizzlies witnessed a significant change in its leadership just eight games shy of the playoffs. Taylor Jenkins, a figure instrumental in the team’s recent successes since his arrival alongside a rising star in 2019, is no longer at the helm. The decision to part ways came abruptly, leaving a sense of disbelief and uncertainty swirling around the club. Shattered Bonds and Emotional Impact The departure of Jenkins has resonated deeply, particularly with the team’s standout player, whose journey with the coach dates back to simpler beginnings. The bond forged over years is…
Arne Slot will be braced for the questions when he returns to Liverpool media duties ahead of the Merseyside derby against Everton on Tuesday. The Reds boss has undoubtedly used the international break to do some much-deserved unwinding. He would have also been looking at how to remedy Liverpool’s performances when his troops return. Before the hiatus of the season, the Reds endured a disappointing week – exiting the Champions League and losing the Carabao Cup final at Wembley. In addition, Slot may have kept abreast of the speculation surrounding Trent Alexander-Arnold’s future. There have been plenty of headlines around…

The Los Angeles Lakers will have a pair of home games against the Houston Rockets in the next two weeks, as part of a pretty brutal slate to end the 2024-25 regular season. Elsewhere among their final eight games of the year, the Lakers will also face off against three other Western Conference postseason contenders in the 42-31 Golden State Warriors, the 62-12 Oklahoma City Thunder (twice), and the 37-38 Dallas Mavericks. Los Angeles will have a bit of a reprieve, with a pair of “gimme” games against the 32-42 New Orleans Pelicans and the 20-54 Portland Trail Blazers. As…
As MilanNews write, in the face of yet another disappointing performance from the Chelsea-owned player, the supporters and pundits have asked only one question: why play Felix? As much as he may be a quality player – albeit unexpressed since he arrived at Milan – Joao Felix has only shown glimpses of something good on two occasions, against Roma in his debut in the Coppa Italia and in the incredible away match in Lecce last March 8. In addition to these anonymous performances, in the away match in Naples it felt like the ex-Benfica starlet remained on the pitch longer…
