“If I didn’t have a great relationship with him, I think it could have spiralled into something nasty,” captain says of star allrounder

Dinesh Karthik and Andre Russell have a chat•BCCI
Andre Russell, man of the tournament in IPL 2019, had criticised the “decision making” of his franchise Kolkata Knight Riders midway through the tournament, when losses for the team were piling up. That criticism had come on the back of Russell having suggested a week earlier that he wouldn’t mind moving up the order given his devastating form, saying: “To go out there and chasing 14-15 per over, it’s not the best way you want to start as a batsman.”KKR captain Dinesh Karthik had copped the blame for Russell batting lower down, but he said on Sunday that Russell was a “heart on sleeve” kind of player, and that they both shared an excellent equation which prevented a sour situation from turning ugly.”I think he’s one of those guys who wears his heart on his sleeve. It’s up to you how you take it,” Karthik said on the . “If you want to take it offensively, the mistake is on your part. If you want to take it constructively, which is how I looked at it… we had a conversation over it. Man to man, we discussed it. He wasn’t unhappy with me, he wasn’t happy that the team wasn’t winning. That is the bottom line.”ALSO READ: Andre Russell questions KKR’s decision-makingKarthik said that there was a gulf between the meaning Russell had intended to convey with his words and how they were perceived.”Whatever he said, I completely respected it. I think he got a taste of the Indian media then as well,” Karthik said. “Because what can be said and what comes out can be two different things. The tone of what you say to what comes out can be very different when it comes in print. He realised (that) and was a little apologetic as well. But at the end of the day, I have a great relationship with him. That makes the difference. If I didn’t have a great relationship with him, I think it could have spiralled into something nasty. Because I have an honest relationship, I can go straight up to him and say, ‘Russ, I don’t think what you said is right, because the way it has come out is not great, so what are we going do?’ And he said, ‘No, skip. This is how I felt about it, not how it’s come out.’ So there itself half the battle is over because what he said to what people are reading are two different things.”Karthik said that the duo had worked out the issues Russell had while explaining his own rationale, and had met his star allrounder “halfway”.”As a leader, I think having different opinions and dealing with it is one of the most important things,” Karthik said. “You need to be able to stand up and have a conversation, sometimes a hard conversation.”
da dobrowin: Após a vitória sobre o Assu nesta quinta-feira (27), pelo placar de 2 a 0, o ABC, do técnico Moacir Júnior, garantiu a liderança na segunda fase do Campeonato Potiguar de 2021. O resultado coloca o Mais Querido na final da Copa Rio Grande do Norte, contra o segundo colocado Santa Cruz-RN.
Série B de peso vai começar! Veja como vão entrar os clubes na competição
O resultado também representa um acréscimo nos números do experiente treinador frente ao clube. Moacir tem agora um aproveitamento de 79,19% em oito jogos, número superior ao que teve no Treze em 2020 (66,6%) e América-RN em 2019 (64,1%), quando foi campeão estadual nas duas oportunidades. O técnico falou sobre isso.
– Essas estatísticas são sempre importantes porque elas acabam exprimindo aquilo que trabalhamos no dia a dia. O resultado no futebol acaba ditando as regras, mas eu acho muito importante também termos um padrão melhor de jogo, com mais compactação e objetividade. Sinto que também estamos conseguindo criar isso. Mas claro que fico muito feliz com essa marca e espero aumentar ainda mais esse percentual, com muita humildade e determinação. Não só por mim, como também principalmente para ajudar o ABC rumo ao título do returno. – contou.

Mas ao contrário dele, Moacir Júnior, campeão potiguar pelo América em 2019, pode entrar para a história do futebol do Rio Grande do Norte caso conquiste o título novamente. Isso porque o único treinador campeão por América-RN e ABC no século foi Ferdinando Teixeira. Moacir também falou sobre o assunto.
– Para mim seria uma grande honra conquistar esse feito e poder marcar meu nome na história do futebol do Rio Grande do Norte. São duas torcidas muito fanáticas e clubes centenários. Hoje estou muito focado em dar ao ABC a condição de dar um calendário bom em 2022, e nada melhor do que coroar um trabalho com um título. Me sentiria muito honrado de ter esse feito na minha carreira porque foram vários profissionais que passaram por estes clubes, e poucos atingiram isso. Mas caso a gente venha a conquistar com certeza eu vou levar isso como um feito incrível na minha carreira. – revelou.
O ABC volta a entrar em campo já neste domingo (30), para a final da segunda fase, que ocorrerá no Frasqueirão, às 16h (Horário de Brasília). O vencedor garante uma vaga na final do estadual, contra o já classificado Globo FC.
da bet7k: If Liverpool have proved one thing this season, it's that their bouncebackability is second to none, having recovered countless results from losing positions and weathered harsh storms to win the Carabao Cup and sit behind Premier League table-toppers Arsenal only behind goal difference after 31 matches.
da bet nacional: Sure, losing 3-0 at home to Atalanta – who are sixth-placed in Serie A and with the seventh-best away record in the division – in the Europa League quarter-finals first leg is hardly great, as it presents a mountainous task in Italy next week, but stranger things have happened under Jurgen Klopp's wing.
What is irrefutable however is that Liverpool have been out of sorts recently, saved by individual moments of brilliance and last-gasp winners throughout recent matches and failing to muster up the sustained fluency and fizz that is needed to compete across multiple fronts at this crucial late stage.
Two recent trips to Old Trafford have resulted in an FA Cup exit and a concession of top spot in the English top-flight; in both games, the Redmen should have won, but in both games, they didn't.
Alexis Mac Allister has been the obvious constant throughout this period but he's not the only one to have lifted his team, with Luis Diaz hitting a rich vein of form and maintaining it throughout 2024.
Luis Diaz's season in numbers
Liverpool suffered a startling nosedive last season but blame can hardly be attributed to Diaz, who spent the lion's share on the sidelines after suffering a knee injury in October 2022, aggravating this issue when closing on a comeback in December.
The Colombian struggled to revive his erstwhile level of performance in the final stretch of the 2022/23 campaign and was criticised for his "awful" displays by journalist Tom Little as Liverpool closed out a forgettable season.
Luis Diaz.
And despite scoring in Liverpool's opening two Premier League fixtures of the current campaign, Diaz was unable to lift himself back to the brilliance that followed his initial £37m transfer from Porto in January 2022, posting a solitary strike across his subsequent 18 league games.
That's all changed now, with the fleet-footed winger restoring his finest form to play an essential role in Liverpool's conquest for success over the past few months, hitting nine goal contributions from his past 13 Premier League appearances.
The Athletic's James Pearce has even noted that the 27-year-old has been "Liverpool's biggest attacking threat" during the club's injury-ravaged period a number of weeks ago.
As per FBref, he ranks among the top 11% of attacking midfielders and wingers across Europe's top five leagues over the past year for goals scored, the top 12% for shot-creating actions, the top 5% for pass completion and the top 6% for touches in the attacking penalty area per 90.
He's a real force, a bundle of electricity, and averages 1.5 key passes, 1.7 dribbles, 3.5 ball recoveries and 4.5 successful duels per game in the Premier League this season, as per Sofascore, to underline this point.
He's certainly one of Liverpool's most influential players, but does his salary reflect that?
Luis Diaz's salary at Liverpool
Diaz arrived on Merseyside as a talented but relatively unknown commodity, though he had risen to the fore quite spectacularly in Portugal and was of concrete interest to Tottenham Hotspur before the Reds swooped in.
The transfer fee paid for his services was not extortionate but marked a sizeable outlay with a further £12m in add-ons. It is unclear how many clauses have been met in the time since his arrival.
Liverpool winger Luis Diaz
However, one of the finest financial measures of the club's success was tying the wily winger down to a weekly salary of just £55k per week, taking him below the likes of Adrian (£60k per week) and Kostas Tsimikas (£75k per week) on the overall salary bracket.
In a different measure of Liverpool's salary success, however, Diaz is earning well over 3x less than Thiago Alcantara, who has played just five minutes of competitive football this season.
Thiago Alcantara's season in numbers
Liverpool signed Thiago, an eminent and decorated centre-midfielder, from Bayern Munich in a package rising to £25m back in 2020, with his elite range of passing and immense technical qualities enticing Klopp into launching the bid.
And while, when fit, the Spain international has been a wonderful presence in Klopp's squad, his availability has been few and far between, actually failing to start over 20 Premier League games in any single season.
And after sustaining an injury back in April 2023 Thiago has been scarcely seen, with his one appearance this term – a five-minute cameo during defeat against Arsenal in February – aggravating this unending bout of ill fortune and leaving him racing for another showing before his contract expires in June.
As a result of this, the newly-turned 33-year-old boasts a market value of just £4m – according to Football Transfers – to emphasise his bitter decline.
Furthermore, he is indeed one of Liverpool's highest earners, and for all his talent, the culmination of his contract at Anfield cannot come soon enough in this regard.
Thiago Alcantara's salary at Liverpool
Thiago has been heralded for his "staggering" ability with a football by pundit Michael Owen but this is no use if he is unable to produce any level of quality on the pitch.
Liverpool could certainly have used his talents over recent weeks and months, providing a cool head and eagle-eyed vision on the field to dictate and guide play and help Liverpool retain control – recent fixtures against Manchester United are a good example of when this could have come into play.

The fact that he earns £200k per week as a Liverpool player is, frankly, astounding when considering what he is offering within Klopp's system, indeed eclipsing the wage of influential, ever-present stars such as Diaz.
While an influx of central midfield talent last summer has restored Liverpool's position as a major player in both the Premier League and on the continent, there is little question that Thiago could have been the standout – or one of them – this term.
When combining his £25m transfer fee with his earnings since joining Liverpool, it can be inferred that the veteran ace has drained Liverpool over £63m since arriving on English shores, and given that only the FA Cup and Carabao Cup have been gleaned during this period – competitions that he has not made the greatest level of contribution toward – it's, unfortunately, one to put to bed.
Klopp must drop Liverpool’s 3/10 struggler who was worse than Nunez
The Reds suffered a chastening Anfield defeat in the Europa League vs Atalanta.

Klopp's departure will be keenly felt this summer, but sadly Thiago leaving in tow is only something that will benefit Liverpool going forward, freeing up room and resources for the new era.
da dobrowin: O Avaí está mais próximo de ser o campeão Catarinense de 2021. O Leão da Ilha derrotou a Chapecoense por 2 a 1, no Estádio da Ressacada e pode empatar o jogo de volta que será o dono da taça do estadual.
A etapa inicial do primeiro jogo da final foi de muita marcação e poucas chances para as equipes. Contudo, o Avaí foi o time a chegar com mais perigo. Aos 23 minutos, Valdívia deu bom chute de chapa, a bola desviou e balançou as redes, mas do lado de fora.
Se o primeiro tempo foi de poucas emoções, a segunda etapa pegou fogo. O Avaí abriu o placar aos 19 minutos em uma cobrança de falta de Lourenço. O camisa 97 chutou com força, a bola passou pela barreira e foi morrer nas redes da Chapecoense.
O empate do Verdão do Oeste saiu aos 32 minutos com Anderson Leite. Mike recebeu dentro da área e apenas rolou para o volante, que soltou o pé para deixar o placar tudo igual.
No apagar das luzes os donos da casa buscaram a vitória. Aos 49 minutos, Vinícius Leite aproveitou um erro da defesa da Chape, dominou a bola e finalizou. A bola desviou em Ronei e tirou as chances de defesa do arqueiro da Chape.
Próximo jogo:
Com o primeiro jogo da decisão do estadual já no passado, os rivais se enfrentam novamente para decidir o dono da taça na próxima quarta-feira, na Arena Condá.

He was the ACB’s first media manager and a longtime manager of the national side

Ian McDonald, the Australian Cricket Board’s first media manager and also longtime manager of the national team, has died aged 88 on the Gold Coast after a long illness.McDonald led the internal investigation that confirmed Mark Waugh and Shane Warne had been paid for their exchange of information with “John the bookie” during the 1994-95 season. Waugh (A$10,000) and Warne (A$8,000) were privately fined by the ACB immediately before travelling to the West Indies in 1995, and while McDonald drafted a press release to announce the decision, the story was kept in-house by the ACB and did not reach the public eye until December 1998, well after his departure.A long and eventful career as a journalist and sports editor for publications including , and the , and then as media manager for the VFL, set up McDonald to be recruited to the ACB by then chief executive David Richards in August 1983.The governing body was still coming to terms with the demands of the new era heralded by the “peace treaty” with Kerry Packer after World Series Cricket and needed a better idea of public relations. At the time, McDonald described his role as bringing a “more human public image” to a “faceless and mysterious body”. McDonald would remain at the ACB until 1997, an instantly recognisable figure with his stocky build, moustache and brown-framed glasses.Over that time, McDonald’s duties were many and varied, as the go-between for a cricket board and national team that struggled amid the many ructions of the early 1980s before taking on a more robust and successful form under the leadership of Allan Border and Bob Simpson on the cricket field and Richards, cricket manager Graham Halbish and chairman Malcolm Gray in the latter years of the decade.McDonald was a confidante and advisor for all these leaders, presiding over events such as Kim Hughes’ tear-filled resignation as captain in 1984, some 80 home Test matches, the World Cup co-hosted with New Zealand in 1992 and ultimately Australia’s rise to the summit of the game by defeating the West Indies in the Caribbean in 1995. McDonald’s duel role as media and team manager gave him a unique perspective on a time when support staff were few and players and administrators worked closely together on limited budgets.In January 1992, when the selectors chose to drop Border’s longtime lieutenant Geoff Marsh from the final Test of a series against India, causing the captain to refuse to walk onto the field for day five of the fourth match at Adelaide Oval, McDonald fielded calls from the press box about his absence. His immortal reply when asked why Border was absent, “he’s got the s***s”, momentarily had the fourth estate concluding that the captain was battling gastro.As a media manager, McDonald was pivotal to creating a system of national media accreditation to allow access to all Australian venues during the international summer. He recruited and mentored Patrick Keane, a former Australian Associated Press journalist, as Australian team media manager, before he went on to a long and influential career with the AFL.

da bet esporte: West Ham United have been handed some unsavoury news surrounding their latest defensive star Konstantinos Mavropanos in the last couple of days.
Moyes and Mavropanos a match made in heaven
da bwin: After plenty of speculation, Mavropanos finally became a West Ham player last summer after a move for Premier League outcast Harry Maguire broke down over personal terms, leaving Moyes with the Greek giant instead.
The Ex-Arsenal man had rebuilt his career in the Bundesliga with Stuttgart, and at 26-years-old is just entering his prime years, convincing the Hammers to shell out around £20m to take him to the London Stadium in a bid to reinvest the money raked in from Declan Rice's sale wisely.
"Excellent" West Ham player on £140,000-a-week set to leave this summer
He won’t be staying at the club past this season.
ByBen Browning Apr 3, 2024
And after a tricky integration period in which he played just two Premier League games before December, he has gone on to nail down a spot in Moyes' starting XI, and has played the full 90 minutes 11 times in the last 14 Premier League outings, only substituted in the 6-0 thrashing against his former side.

With the defender now firmly a first-choice option ahead of Nayef Aguerd in David Moyes' backline, results have improved and there remains a chance that the Hammers end the season with Europa League silverware and a spot in next season's European competitions through either that or their Premier League finish, with the club currently 7th in a congested Premier League table.
Bump in the road ahead
However, there could be problems this summer for Moyes and co, with the latest reports offering concerning updates on Mavropanos and his London Stadium future.
His form has not gone unnoticed, and reports have claimed that Serie A sides are sitting up and taking stock of his situation in east London, despite the Greek having signed a deal until 2028 just months ago.
Get Football News Italy claimed last month that Italian league leaders Napoli in particular were keeping tabs on the defender as they looked for a future beyond Francesco Acerbi this summer. Now, CalcioMercato have offered further insight into the situation, and it could well come as a blow to the Hammers. As per their report, Mavropanos is 'thinking about saying goodbye' to the London Stadium already following interest from both Roma and Inter.
Of course, West Ham are in a strong bargaining position for the defender, with a mammoth deal still to run in east London. It remains to be seen whether any Serie A side could put together an offer that would tempt the Premier League side to cash in on their summer addition, but with Mavropanos' head seemingly turning at the opportunity, there could be trouble ahead.
Smith was appointed in an interim capacity in mid-December

Graeme Smith has been appointed South Africa’s director of cricket for a two-year period ending on March 31, 2022.Smith was appointed in an interim capacity in December last year, during a time of crisis at Cricket South Africa, and was due to take a break to commentate on the IPL. With that tournament now postponed indefinitely, he has been confirmed in the role.ALSO READ: Smith confirms de Kock won’t be South Africa’s Test captainSmith had initially applied for the post in November last year, but withdrew his interest citing a lack of confidence in the administration. He was re-engaged when CSA underwent an overhaul, which saw CEO Thabang Moroe suspended and Dr Jacques Faul appointed in an acting capacity (a status quo that remains as Moroe’s disciplinary hearing has yet to conclude. Smith has also maintained a distant relationship with the board that has come under severe criticism from the South African Cricketers’ Association (SACA) and sponsors for their role in CSA’s collapse. While a boardroom clean-out has yet to happen and some of Smith’s reservations remain, his experience of working with CSA staff and his growing interest in developing the game convinced him to commit to a long-term contract.”If I told you I had 100% certainty (over things) I would be lying to you. There have been so many doubts over the last period, it’s impossible to be certain,” Smith said during a video conference on Friday. “But, operationally I have got to know the staff, I have seen a lot of hard-working people that care deeply about the game. Over the three months, I have become invested in the position and started to care about the responsibility to the game, sorting it out, getting us back to the top of performance and the business of the game. It created that feeling for myself that I want to get stuck in and try and make a difference.”Smith has overseen South Africa’s worst home summer since readmission, in which the national team won only one of the five series they played under a new coaching staff, replaced captain Faf du Plessis and cast the selection net wide. The dip in performances – South Africa have not won a Test series in a year – raised serious questions about the talent pool and Smith acknowledged he was taken aback by how much work needs to be done on the field.”Initially it surprised me how much coaching had to take place at a national level,” he said. “I feel our players need access to really smart coaches and smart people to develop their games and their thinking around playing at the highest level. For us on a national level, really trying to understand who the players we have to work with are, how do we get them better and what do we need to do to get back on top.”To that end, South Africa developed a winter training program, which has been put on hold amid the coronavirus pandemic, which has enforced a five-week lockdown in the country. However, 47 players have been identified to form part of a high-performance programme and they have been sent fitness regimes to maintain even during the lockdown. Smith is in communication with all those players and has opened up a communication channel that had been blocked off under the previous administration.”It’s been about building relationships we needed to strengthen, with SACA and player pools,” Smith said. We’ve had open two-way discussions and players are feeling a lot more settled and comfortable to express themselves.”While players have received one level of reassurance with communications, they also have another financially. Faul confirmed that both players and staff do not face an immediate pay cut threat, like some of their international counterparts. With the international home season over before the pandemic hit, “we haven’t lost income that would trigger pay cuts,” Faul said.However, the long-term forecast may not be as positive, with Faul admitting there is likely to be less money available in the future, as the full impact of the coronavirus becomes known. Further, CSA’s sponsorship deal with Standard Bank ends at the end of this month and they have yet to announce a replacement and their broadcast rights deal with pay-television provider comes to an end next year. Even before the Covid-19 pandemic, insiders were predicting that a new deal could be worth around 33% less, given South Africa’s flailing form. Given the contracting economy, Faul expected a tough road ahead and said CSA would continue to monitor the changing situation.
da aposte e ganhe: Como não poderia deixar de ser, o Corinthians vive uma segunda-feira agitada nos bastidores.

Segundo apurou o LANCE!, muitos nomes têm sido oferecidos para o Timão nas últimas semanas, o que se intensificou após o clássico. No entanto, a atual cúpula corintiana, formada pelo presidente Duilio Monteiro Alves, pelo diretor Roberto de Andrade e pelo gerente Alessandro, tem se blindado dessa chuva de nomes e se concentra em perfis específicos para contratar.
Nesse pensamento, o preferido é Renato Gaúcho, sem clube desde a sua saída do Grêmio. Com perfil vitorioso, com bom relacionamento com os jogadores e bons trabalhos de campo, sem contar a figura enorme que ele representa hoje no futebol brasileiro, o ídolo gremista é o plano A dos dirigentes alvinegros, mesmo sabendo do entrave financeiro, pelo alto salário do comandante.
Acontece que há uma sinalização de que pode haver uma negociação para que os números se acertem dentro das condições estabelecidas pelo clube, que vive situação complicada com suas contas. Uma reunião com Renato e seus representantes deve acontecer nos próximos dias. Ainda não está definido se o Timão enviará um intermediário ou alguém da cúpula para tratar do negócio.
Apesar disso, o plano é tratado como difícil, por enquanto, mas já não é descartado como foi em outros momentos. Por isso, a diretoria trabalha com outros nomes como Fábio Carille (Al-Ittihad) e Dorival Jr. (sem clube), que encabeçam essa prateleira do “plano B”. Com um pouco mais de distância, mas no radar, estão Antônio Carlos Zago e Sylvinho, ambos atualmente sem clube e identificados com o Alvinegro. Os dois últimos com menos chances, por ora.
O Corinthians espera definir o novo nome ainda nesta semana, já pensando no planejamento para o Campeonato Brasileiro e na sequência da Copa do Brasil. O treinador que chegar feria pouco mais de uma semana antes da estreia pela competição nacional e ainda contaria com um ‘amistoso de luxo” na última rodada da fase de grupos da Copa Sul-Americana, contra o River Plate-PAR.
