Manchester United have had a rough time of it in the last few years. Since Alex Ferguson left, the club has been in a bit of a bind. Changing manager and transfer policy constantly has led to a bloated, imbalanced squad that has a lot of petulance at the top end. One name that might give a bit of hope to United fans, though, is Mason Greenwood.

Having already played last season and having scored in pre-season, Greenwood very much looks ready to step up and make a difference this year.

What makes him so special?

The thing that makes him stand out is his maturity and his quality for one so young. While many youngster are out with friends, or playing console or casino games Mason Greenwood was grafting away at the sport he loved. Despite being 17, he plays with a full view of the pitch and already shows an impressive range of technical prowess. He’s got excellent dribbling quality, he’s a crisp passer, and, as his goals in pre-season have shown, he’s not lacking in the finishing or confidence department either.

Greenwood shows a level of arrogance that you would want from a young player, but he’s not taking it too far. Already, he seems to have a good grasp of when to start and when to stop.

Any concerns or doubts?

It would be hard to say as he’s got so little first-team senior experience, but that would probably be the big challenge. With Romelu Lukaku seemingly on his way out of the club, it would be odd to see United playing with a strikeforce of Marcus Rashford and Greenwood.

While faith in two academy kids at a club like United would be very much a positive, it’s not something they could realistically rely upon. If Greenwood takes longer to adjust to the senior game than some might expect, it could hurt his development if United start stumbling. Overall, though, there isn’t much to worry about with this kid; mentally, he’s ahead of the curve. As stated, he’s an old head on young shoulders. While others were dreaming of night clubs, checking out the best casino in usa , of stardom, this lad got his head down and the results are already something special. One to watch!

With the UEFA Champions League Final just around the corner, there’s been a lot of tension in the build-up. For Liverpool, the long wait feels like it could slow down the incredible momentum built-up in recent months. It also won’t help that Tottenham Hotspur, their opponents, have had more than enough time to get key players back fit. Will that tell in the end for the biggest game in the recent history of either club?

Spurs Team News

Tottenham are definitely the happier of the two sides with the long break until the final. They look set to only be short Ben Davies. They can welcome back a whole host of players, including Jan Vertonghen, Davinson Sanchez, Harry Winks, Harry Kane, and Victor Wanyama. Given how key some of those players are, it can only be a good thing for Spurs.

While not all of them will be 100% fit, it’s the biggest game of all of their careers. Finding energy reserves to fight through the pain barrier shouldn’t be so tough for these Spurs players.

Therefore, it’s easy to see how Spurs can come into the tie feeling like the team with momentum and positive ascendancy. However, as has happened before, fitness gambles could lead to more problems than solutions on the day.

Liverpool News

Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp, meanwhile, have little issues to worry about in terms of fitness. Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah both have passed fit by all accounts, with only Naby Keita being ruled out definitively. While injuries can re-occur from a fitness perspective, the Reds are in a fine position just as the season comes to an end.

Last year, fitness and form of key players – including Salah and then goalkeeper Loris Karius, cost the Reds on the big stage. This year, they look to be primed to handle the pace and intensity of the match. Unlike last year, though, they are the favourites. Can a Klopp side be at its best when it has to handle being the ‘big’ team on such an occasion?

Liverpool, though, look in excellent form with regards to their injury list. While Keita is a big loss given his exquisite form in the end of the season run-up, the fitness of so many other key players – especially Firmino – will take a huge amount of weight off of the shoulders of Klopp.

As the old saying goes “You wait ages for a bus – and then two come along at the same time!” . That’s surely how most fans of the England football team have felt about them for what must be 20 or 30 years now. For the longest time they just never quite had it, whatever ‘it’ is. Inconsistent play, no killer instinct, not even ‘nearly men’ standard, just bowing out at the first even half competitive challenge they faced. Then all of a sudden, seemingly overnight, there was a real shift in mood and now we’re putting goals away like you wouldn’t believe. Going from a lack of anyone to ignite passion and determination in the team, to having a plethora of young talent and a cool, calm and collected manage to boot.

The England squad appear to have moved past the challenges of old and have found themselves in what could be seen as the beginning of a new golden era of international football. The team have a World Cup semi final behind them (albeit with not the most challenging of draws), a semi final against The Netherlands in the UEFA Nations League lined up for June, and now a storming start to their Euro 2020 qualifying campaign to draw motivation from. We were of course expected to win against Czech Republic (5-0) and Montenegro (5-1) but the margin certainly has impressed. Ten goals in two games, a goal scoring frenzy!

So what impact was England’s winning streak had on their Euro 2020 betting odds for may be asking? Well, they are currently second Favourite at 6-1 to win the tournament with some bookmakers, with France at 7/2, Spain 7-1 and former foes Belgium 17/2. We’re fairly short in the betting odds, but based on our performances so far I’d say that makes sense really. Why not combine a free bet offer with the likes of 10bet or 888 sports to maximise your betting bank!England next play a Euros qualifier on 7th September against Bulgaria, followed by Kosovo on 10^th of the month. The Netherlands Nations League game occurs previous to both of these, with England at betting odds of 6/5 to win with bookmakers.

The likes of Kane and Sterling are experiencing a rich vein of form right now and there’s a very positive mood in the camp. There are of course bumps in the road on the way to any success, and the booing of black players by portions of the Montenegrin crowd during that game was disappointing to see. It looks like they will be facing the consequences of their actions though. It will take more than that to stop what looks to be leaps and bounds of progress from this talented and youthful team though.
