Tranmere Rovers v Swansea City: Monk up for the cup

Capcom took may of us by surprise with the recent announcement of Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, and at its recent Next summer showcase, the company offered yet more extensive details on the game.

For starters, in case you’ve been wondering whether Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster is a remaster or closer to a full-blown remake, as per its developers, it’s very much the latter. The upcoming release will keep the original game’s core structure and mechanics intact, while also preserving the combat animations of the original game, though you can expect changes, tweaks, and enhancements in a number of other areas.

That will include the visuals being completely overhauled in RE Engine, while on top of that, you can also expect various q…

The open beta for Activision’s Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 ends today, which means multiplayer fans must wait until launch for their fix. In the meantime, Zombies players can check out some new gameplay from Liberty Falls, the second round-based map. Check it out below, courtesy of IGN.

Players start with relative fodder in the first few waves, as per Zombies tradition. It quickly escalates, and you need to acquire better weapons to stand a chance, especially when Vermins, Armored Zombies, and the dreaded Abomination appear.

Unlike previous entries, players can bring their weapon loadouts onto a map, ensuring all their attachments are intact after buying it off the wall or from a Mystery Box. Melee Macchiato also looks worthwhile, granting powerful pu…

Tottenham Hotspur have secured the future of Christian Eriksen, the playmaker signing a new four-year contract through to 2020.

The 24-year-old Denmark international is a key figure for Spurs, having helped Mauricio Pochettino s team to mount a genuine challenge for the Premier League title last season, ultimately finishing third behind Leicester City and runners-up Arsenal.

Eriksen s previous deal had been set to expire at the end of next season. 

There is a great future at this place and I wouldn t have signed if I didn t see that, he said in a video posted on the club s Twitter account.

It s a very good group, players who connect with each other, staff who connect with the players.

We all have an idea of where we want to end, and hopefully …

What is it that makes aliens such a threatening opponent in humanity’s mind? Is it the fear of the unknown? Is it the likelihood that whatever invading extra-terrestrial force we might encounter will be more technologically advanced than us? Whatever aliens’ appeal, they’ve been an ever-present in pop culture far longer than any of us can remember, so it’s unsurprising they’re prominent fodder in video games. Here’s a selection of 15 excellent single player games where you face off against interstellar forces.

Dutch Eredivisie giants Feyenoord are being linked with summer moves for former players Dirk Kuyt and John Guidetti, .

The De Kuip outfit have shown a great deal of improvement over the last couple of years and they hope to mount a serious title challenge next season.

As a result, Feyenoord are in the market for attacking reinforcements and they are currently looking at two of their former stars.

The first is Fenerbahce forward Dirk Kuyt, who could return to De Kuip when his deal in Turkey expires at the end of the season.

The 34-year-old left Feyenoord for Liverpool back in 2006 and he is widely tipped to end his career in Rotterdam.

Meanwhile, the Eredivisie giants are also showing interest in Manchester City striker John Guidetti, who was in s…

Relegation-threatened Rayo Vallecano have sacked head coach Michel following a run of seven straight losses in LaLiga.

Michel guided Rayo to promotion from the second tier last term but has paid the price for a poor run of results that have left the club in danger of relegation.

The Madrid outfit sit six points adrift of safety with 10 matches to play, having not collected a point since a five-game unbeaten streak between December 23 and January 28.

Michel enjoyed two separate stints with the club as a player and took over as head coach following the dismissal of Ruben Baraja in February 2017.

Rayo Vallecano has taken the decision to dismiss Michel as coach of the first team, a statement read.

We thank him for his invaluable work during these t…

Callum Wilson believes he must be more selfish in front of goal if he is to become a top Premier League striker, after his hat-trick helped Bournemouth see off Huddersfield Town 4-0.

Bournemouth moved four points clear of the relegation zone courtesy of the victory, though things could have been different after Eddie Howe s side were reduced to 10 men on the stroke of half-time.

However, Huddersfield rarely threatened, with Harry Arter and Wilson whose first half double put the hosts in command prior to Simon Francis dismissal adding gloss to the win late on.

Wilson, plagued by injury since Bournemouth gained top-flight status in 2015, had not scored in the league since January prior to Saturday s clash, and the 25-year-old is determined to build on his return t…

Juventus head coach Massimiliano Allegri is not angry with his side, despite slumping to the club s worst-ever Champions League defeat in their 4-0 drubbing at the hands of titleholders Chelsea.

Tuesday s rout was Juve s record Champions League defeat, and second worst in the European Cup/Champions League overall, behind a 7-0 loss to Wiener Sport-Club in October 1958.

It was also the first time Juventus lost by four goals in any competition in 17 years, dating back to February 2004 in a 4-0 Serie A defeat to rivals Roma.

Allegri s Juve had already qualified for the Champions League last 16, with Chelsea moving above them in Group H while clinching their own passage into the knockout stage.

Chelsea led 1-0 at the break from Trevor Chalobah s 25th-minute s…

Market: Swansea City win

Odds: 7/10 @

Looking to try and move within touching distance of the play-off spots this weekend, Swansea will welcome Reading to south Wales on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, while Swansea might have endured a worrying start to the 2021/22 campaign, the Whites do appear to have largely bounced back. Knowing that victory this weekend could see them move within touching distance of the play-off spots, Head Coach Russell Martin has gained plenty of fans around south Wales. Last seen earlier in the week picking up a deserved 2-0 victory against Barnsley on the road, they have lost just one of their last five Championship matchups. Smelling a golden chance on home soil this weekend, Swansea should also be boosted by their conti…

Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo admits he misses former club Manchester United and still enjoys a good relationship with Sir Alex Ferguson.

The winger spent six years at Old Trafford before switching to the Spanish giants for a record fee of 80 million pounds in 2009.

This season has seen the 27-year-old break his own record of 40 goals in La Liga and he clinched the winner in last weekend s El Clasico, putting Madrid in the driving seat for the title.

However, Ronaldo claims he still chats with former manager Ferguson and admits he misses the company of his old team-mates.

I speak with Sir Alex sometimes and of course I miss Manchester, Ronaldo told Zoo magazine.

It felt like I left a family back there because I spent six years with all tho…
