Everton striker Cenk Tosun wanted by Crystal Palace two years after saying he was ‘happy’ Eagles move failed
Crystal Palace are interested in taking Everton striker Cenk Tosun on loan but unearthed quotes reveal he was not so keen a couple of years ago.The Turkish international has fallen down the pecking order under Marco Silva, who has preferred Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison to lead his attack.Tosun is wanted by Crystal Palace1
Tosun is wanted by Crystal Palace
Tosun has made 19 appearances this season, netting twice, but has been mostly used as a substitute.A move to the Eagles is one that seems to be interesting Tosun, but that did not appear to be the case back in 2017, when Palace had made enquiries about his availability while he was with Besitkas.About my transfer to Crystal Palace, I can say that Im very happy the move failed,” he told the New Shopper. I get to stay at the club and I am doing very well at the moment in both the league and Champions League.Roy Hodgson wants to boost his strikeforce, having allowed Alexander Sorloth to leave on loan and with his team only having scored 23 times in the Premier League this season.Everton have already allowed Oumar Niasse to join Cardiff on loan for the rest of the season and would not be willing to sanction a deal for Tosun unless they are able to secure themselves a replacement.

What is expected goals?

  • Expected goals (xG) is a statistic used to work out how many goals should be scored in a match.
  • Every single shot is awarded an xG value based on the difficulty of the attempt, with factors including distance from goal, type of shot and number of defenders present affecting the value.
  • The higher the xG of a particular shot, the more likely a goal should be scored from that shot.
  • The xG value of every shot in a game is then used to calculate the expected goals in a particular match.

Tottenham Hotspur EXCLUSIVE: Spurs to hold top-level meeting over Harry Kane injury; loan signings and Troy Parrott promotion being considered
Tottenham have planned a ‘top-level meeting’ to discuss how to deal with Harry Kane’s absence over the next couple of months.talkSPORT understands loan signings are being considered, as well as the potential promotion of Troy Parrott, the 16-year-old academy striker.Kane is set to be sidelined until early March with an ankle injury picked up in Sunday’s defeat by Manchester United, leaving Mauricio Pochettino, the club’s manager, with a selection crisis.Kane suffered ankle ligament damage in a challenge with Phil Jones2

Kane joins Lucas Moura on the treatment table, while fellow attacker Heung-Min Son has now joined up with the South Korea squad for the Asian Cup and could be unavailable for selection until the middle of February.Spurs had not been expected to make any major signings throughout the January transfer window, despite not buying a single player during the summer, but this could change with Kane’s injury the catalyst.And talkSPORT host Jim White has learned a meeting will be held to assess Tottenham’s options to deal with the England international’s absence.Jim exclusively revealed: “A top-level meeting is planned to look at all the options on the table – even possible loan signings. “Even young academy prospects.“One name being considered even at that level – and this would be a meteoric step-up – is an academy star, young striker Troy Parrott.”Parrott, the Republic of Ireland youth international, has played regularly for Tottenham’s Under-23s this season despite not turning 17 until next month; he also travelled with Pochettino’s senior squad to the Premier League match at Leicester in December.Troy Parrott could be in line for a promotion to Tottenham’s first-team2

Parrott got a taste of competitive football earlier this season, playing in two Checkatrade Trophy group stage matches for Spurs’ Development Squad.Pochettino has already ruled out using Vincent Janssen throughout Kane’s absence despitethe Netherlands forward making a scoring return from injury for the Under-23s last week.The only other senior striker Pochettino can call upon is Fernando Llorente, who grabbed a hat-trick in the FA Cup defeat of Tranmere at the beginning of the month but remains without a Premier League goal in over a year.Lucas Moura, the Brazil international, has played as a centre forward this season alongside Kane, but he revealed the knee injury he suffered against Tranmere ‘is still painful’ though treatment is continuing to get him back to full fitness at the earliest possible opportunity.

Liverpool visit Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday, with their hopes of making the last 16 of the Champions League very much in the balance.Klopp’s side then play eight games in December, including Sunday’s Merseyside derby against Everton, further home games against Manchester United and Arsenal, and a potentially-decisive Champions League clash with Napoli.The Reds will then kick off 2019 by travelling to Premier League champions Manchester City on January 3.“It’s one hell of a month and after it we’ll know where we stand,” said Rush, speaking at the 2018 Football Association of Wales and McDonald’s grassroots football awards in Cardiff.“That’s where we’ll need our squad players if we’re going to be successful.“I looked at our bench against Fulham [a 2-0 win at Anfield] the other week and it looked really strong.Xherdan Shaqiri has worked his way into Klopp’s first-team plans – will he be Liverpool’s secret weapon?4

“There were some great players on the bench and I think that’s the difference from last season.

While United won the match 4-3, courtesy of a late double from substitute David Beckham, it was Real who advanced and Ronaldo who stole the headlines.Such was the performance of the two-time World Cup winner that night, those inside Old Trafford rose in unison to give him a standing ovation when he was substituted and it’s a moment he has never forgotten.“It was the Champions League match against Manchester United at Old Trafford,” he said. “It was a beautiful and open duel, and I scored three goals then. It was amazing.“The best came when I was changed. The whole stadium said goodbye to me with a huge ovation.The Brazilian turned in a fine individual performance for Real Madrid3

“Everyone stood up, I would never expect something like that. I was surprised by this spontaneous reaction of fans, for whom I was a rival after all.“It was a magical moment, one of the most important in my life. Football is everything to me. When I look back, I’m proud of what I’ve achieved in my career.” Ronaldo is widely considered to be one of the greatest players to ever play the game.Fast, strong, balanced, with a cushioned touch and a deadly finish with either foot or head the mind boggles as to what he may have achieved had he stayed injury free.He joined PSV as a teenager in 1994 and scored 54 times in 58 games for the Dutch club and continued to hit the back of the net regularly at Barcelona, Inter and Real Madrid.The striker was just 17 when he was included in Brazil’s 1994 World Cup winning squad and, after a tournament to forget in 1998,El Fenomeno was at his blistering best in 2002. In Japan and South Korea he scored twice in the final against Germany as he also won the Golden Boot (with eight goals) and Brazil lifted their fifth World Cup.He saw out his career at Brazilian club Corinthians before eventually retiring in 2011.Ronaldo top scored at the World Cup in 2002, but says the hat-trick and reception from the Man United fans a year later was “one of the most important in my life”3
