Kimmich to miss remainder of 2021 due to lung problem

Bayern Munich will be without Joshua Kimmich for the remainder of 2021 as the midfielder recovers from coronavirus.

Kimmich, who has not yet been vaccinated against the virus, has not played for Bayern since November 6.

The 26-year-old was considered a close contact of Bayern team-mate Niklas Sule, who returned a positive PCR test result while on international duty with Germany last month.

After going through a period of isolation, Kimmich was forced to quarantine again when he was classed as a contact of another suspected COVID-19 case. He then tested positive for the virus himself later in November.

Kimmich has stated he is unwilling to receive a coronavirus vaccine until more is known about possible long-term effects. 

Although Kimmich is no l…

Agbonlahor fires back at Klopp with reminder of 2014 Anfield win

Gabriel Agbonlahor responded to Jurgen Klopp s criticism of his mentality on Friday with a Twitter post remembering his winner against Liverpool at Anfield.

Agbonlahor s analysis of Manchester United s 4-0 defeat to Brentford last week so frustrated Klopp he almost rang in to talkSPORT to talk to the former Aston Villa striker, the Liverpool manager revealed.

Agbonlahor s scathing review of United s poor performance was unbelievable coming from an ex-player, Klopp suggested.

Speaking at a news conference ahead of Liverpool facing rivals United, the Reds boss said: [Agbonlahor] lost against us 6-0 my first year [Villa v Liverpool, Feb 2016].

I couldn t remember him as a mentality monster on the pitch, but what he said about United on that show, I was clo…

San Francisco is still dealing with injury issues coming off a bye but was on the board as a 4.5-point NFL betting favorite for this primetime game.

Matt Ryan's Record Against Every NFL Team

It’s the end of an era, as the Atlanta Falcons bid adieu to quarterback Matt Ryan after a March trade sent him packing to Indianapolis to begin a new chapter with the Colts.

The 37-year-old spent all 14 years of his pro career with the Falcons after being selected third overall in the 2008 draft. In that time, he set a new bar for passing statistics within the franchise. His 120 wins, 59,735 yards passing, 367 touchdowns, and 222 games are all Falcons records by significant margins, with Steve Bartkowski second in each category. 

Ryan’s completion percentage of 65.5 is also the highest of any Atlanta quarterback with at least 164 attempts (a list that spans 24 names). The only thing the 2016 MVP didn’t accomplish during his storied tenure is winning a Sup…

Browns vs Raiders Picks, Predictions, and Best Bets: Fade Both Offenses in AFC Slogfest

Week 4 features an AFC tilt between the Cleveland Browns and Las Vegas Raiders at Allegiant Stadium. 

Both teams’ offenses have been abysmal through three weeks, so my Browns vs. Raiders predictions are fading both units in my NFL picks for September 29, 2024.

Browns vs Raiders prediction

My best betUnder 36.5 (-110 at BetMGM)

My analysis

Deshaun Watson continues to disappoint as a member of the Cleveland Browns. The former Pro Bowl quarterback grades out as the 23rd-best QB in the NFL according to Pro Football Focus, carrying a 59.9 passing grade into Sunday’s matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. 

It’s not as if the matchups have been unkind to Watson, either, with the Jaguars and Giants …

Ford drivers vie for 2024 breakout win at Dover

Ford Motorsports came tantalizingly close to winning its first NASCAR Cup Series race of the season last weekend at Talladega, but neither Michael McDowell nor Brad Keselowski could make it happen at the end. The two blue oval drivers will look to break the drought Sunday afternoon when they compete in the Wurth 400 at Dover Motor Speedway in Dover, Del., the 11th race on the 2024 schedule. And what a 2024 it's been so far for Ford Motorsports, huh? While the most casual glance at the win column reveals a bad start for the teams — 0-for-10 — taking the whole season into consideration is even worse. Ford failed to win in the season-opening exhibition race in California — The Busch Light Clash at the Coliseum — at the legendary Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum as Denny Hamlin …

‘I will probably cry’: Theo Walcott leaves Everton and returns to Southampton

Theo Walcott’s career has come full circle with the Everton winger rejoining Southampton 14 years after leaving his boyhood club.

The 31-year-old was in the final year of his Everton contract and his only start for Carlo Ancelotti’s in-form team this season was the Carabao Cup second round win against Salford. Having completed the signings of the defender Ben Godfrey and goalkeeper Robin Olsen on deadline day, Everton accepted Saints’ offer of a loan deal with wages split between the two clubs.
