Zac Efron wears a Tottenham shirt at new Spurs stadium… but seven years ago he was an Arsenal fan

Can someone tell Zac Efron he’s not allowed to support Tottenham AND Arsenal?


The Hollywood star wore a Spurs shirt at the new White Hart Lane during the 1-0 victory over Brighton on Tuesday night.

Efron accepted an invitation from Tottenham midfielder Dele Alli and watched on in delight as Christian Eriksen struck at the death.


But it would appear the 31-year-old isn’t a die-hard fan.















Seven years ago, he was spotted wearing an Arsenal shirt during a visit to the Emirates to watch the Gunners play Chelsea.


Following two teams is considered an unforgivable crime in English football – and Efron risks the wrath of north London by openly supporting the two fierce rivals.

Nonetheless, in a 2014 interview with the BBC, Efron admitted he is a huge football fan.


He said: “I get to a few LA Galaxy games, but not enough. It’s fun and the sport is really starting to grow in the United States.

Football: Southampton power past struggling Huddersfield Town

Football: Southampton power past struggling Huddersfield Town

LONDON (REUTERS) - Southampton continued their revival under new manager Ralph Hasenhuettl as goals from Nathan Redmond, Danny Ings and Michael Obafemi sealed a 3-1 Premier League victory at Huddersfield Town on Saturday (Dec 22).
Southampton, who ended Arsenal's 22-game unbeaten run last time out, secured consecutive league wins for the first time in 20 months and they achieved it with a dominant performance at the John Smith's Stadium.
Southampton went ahead against the run of play in the first half, as the lively Redmond ran on to fellow midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg's through pass and finished emphatically past goalkeeper Jonas Lossl in the 15th minute.
They doubled their lead three minutes from the break as Ings slotted home from the penalty spot for his seventh league goal of the season, after being brought down by Huddersfield defender Mathias Jorgensen's clumsy challenge.
Huddersfield reduced the deficit to 2-1 after the restart as midfielder Philip Billing's swerving effort from distance flew past Southampton goalkeeper McCarthy, who appeared to be unsighted by a team mate.
Southampton then failed to deal with a long throw and nearly paid the price as Jorgensen's header from point blank range was swatted away by McCarthy.
The hosts grew in confidence as they pushed for an equaliser but it was Southampton who restored their two-goal advantage in the 71st minute, as substitute Michael Obafemi calmly finished from close range after good work from Redmond inside the box.
Ireland international Obafemi, who became Southampton's youngest Premier League goalscorer at 18 years and 169 days, could have doubled his tally in the 86th minute after being played through but he could not find a way past Lossl.
Victory lifted Southampton to 16th in the table with 15 points from 18 matches.
"It was a deserved win for us. We played a fantastic first half with fantastic goals... the guys worked very hard today," Hasenhuettl said.
"We have very good options (in attack) when we win back the ball. The passion, character and mentality of our defence was good too... it was an aggressive atmosphere and we knew we had to do our best.
"It's a very important step for us and I hope it will go on like this."
Huddersfield have now lost each of their last five league matches to sit second from bottom with 10 points.
"We have to criticise ourselves today... this is a tough time at the moment," Huddersfield manager David Wagner said.
"We've to make ourselves independent from the circumstances and perform again. We have to show we have learned from this lesson today... we were not brave enough."

West Brom manager latest: Baggies hold talks with former West Ham boss Slaven Bilic

West Brom have spoken to former West Ham boss Slaven Bilic about the possibility of becoming the club’s new manager.


The Baggies sacked Darren Moore in March, despite being fourth in the Championship at the time, and they are yet to find a replacement.

Bilic led the Hammers to their best ever Premier League finish when they came seventh in 2015/16


Bilic has now become the overwhelming favourite for the job after a successful interview with club officials on Tuesday.


The 50-year-old Croatian was a popular figure during his spell with the Hammers, which ended after two years in 2017 following a poor run of results.











His most recent venture, with Saudi club Al-Lttihad, lasted just five months after he was dismissed in February earlier this year.


It is understood West Brom are also interested in Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder.

Football: Bayern Munich win Bundesliga title for seventh successive season

MUNICH (REUTERS) - Bayern Munich won a record-extending seventh consecutive Bundesliga title on Saturday (May 18) after crushing Eintracht Frankfurt 5-1 to finish two points ahead of rivals Borussia Dortmund.
The Bavarians, who can secure a domestic double if they beat RB Leipzig in the German Cup final on May 25, have now won the German league title a record 29 times.
â€Å“It was no easy season by any means. What the team managed to achieve after a lot of criticism is significant. That is why I would like to thank them all,” Bayern coach Niko Kovac told Sky after his team topped the standings with 78 points.
With veterans Franck Ribery and Arjen Robben scoring in their last league game for the club and the Frenchman becoming the first player to win nine Bundesliga titles, victory was also sweet for Kovac.
He spent much of his first season at Bayern under pressure while his future in Munich, despite a contract to 2021, is still in doubt.
â€Å“I am convinced that it will continue (here),” Kovac said. â€Å“I have first-hand information. Now I hope that we can also win the Cup and celebrate the double.”
With two points separating Bayern and Dortmund going into the final matchday, the Bavarians were in no mood for any mishaps considering they had squandered a chance to wrap up the title last week when they drew at RB Leipzig.
In a dominant first half they went ahead with Kingsley Coman after four minutes and missed a bagful of chances to score again.
Frankfurt briefly levelled when Sebastien Haller stabbed in on the rebound in the 50th but their hopes of a top-four finish lasted only minutes with David Alaba and Renato Sanches netting for the hosts in the 53rd and 58th.
Ribery, who joined back in 2007, and Robben, who arrived two years later, then came on as substitutes and scored Bayern̢۪s fourth and fifth goals for a perfect farewell.
Ribery overtook Bayern greats Philipp Lahm, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Oliver Kahn and Mehmet Scholl among other, who have eight league crowns to their names.
Bayern̢۪s Robert Lewandowski was crowned the league̢۪s top scorer for the fourth time with 22 goals.
Dortmund finished on 76 points after beating Borussia Moenchengladbach 2-0. RB Leipzig, third, and fourth-placed Bayer Leverkusen will join them in next season̢۪s Champions League.
Gladbach, VfL Wolfsburg and Frankfurt will compete in the Europa League.

Manchester United warned about making Paul Pogba captain, as Danny Mills reveals David Beckham ‘had too much power’ as England skipper

Manchester United warned about making Paul Pogba captain, as Danny Mills reveals David Beckham ‘had too much power’ as England skipper

Manchester United have been warned about ‘giving too much power’ to Paul Pogba, following reports Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is ready to make the midfielder his club captain.


Red Devils chiefs are reportedly willing to give the Frenchman the captaincy, which he briefly held in a back-up capacity last season before it was stripped from him by Jose Mourinho, in a bid to convince him to stay at Old Trafford this summer.


But Danny Mills has compared giving Pogba the armband to when David Beckham was captain of the England team, and believes it could have a negative effect on the United dressing room.

Danny Mills says David Beckham was given too much power as England captain by Sven-Goran Eriksson and the FA


Former Leeds defender Mills told talkSPORT Becks used his power as skipper to dictate where the team trained, what time they trained, and even where they ate.


He said it eventually rubbed a number of senior Three Lions players the wrong way, and that manager Sven-Goran Eriksson and the Football Association perhaps gave the superstar too much power over the team’s affairs.


And he has advised United not to make the same mistake with Pogba.


Speaking to Sam Matterface on Drivetime, Mills said: “How much power do you give one person?


“Commercially for England and the FA, David Beckham was absolutely huge, but it becomes an issue when he starts to dictate when you train, what restaurants you go to, when you eat, what you do, the times of training. Sven and the FA allowed him that power.”











Matterface: “He dictated where and what time you trained?”


Mills: “Yeah, and when we ate. If he had something on he would have a meeting with Sven and say: ‘Can we just tweak it slightly and do this slightly differently’?


“And Sven was very amenable in that way: ‘Yes David, no problem’.”


Matterface: “What if you wanted to move a training session?”


Mills: “Oh, he didn’t speak to me!”


Matterface: “So what did that do for morale?”

Beckham dictated when the England squad trained and also where and when they ate, according to Mills


Mills: “Well, for some of the more senior players there was a little bit of an issue. It was fine to start with, because he was captain and that’s OK, but there was a point where clearly Sven and the FA had given him a little bit too much power to start dictating things.


“We had senior players in that dressing room, the likes of David Seaman, Martin Keown, Teddy Sheringham, Paul Scholes, Michael Owen and there was a bit of a tipping point, like… ‘hang on a minute’.


“It wasn’t David Beckham’s fault. If you give somebody that power of course you’re going to use it and you’re going to wield it as you want.


“If Manchester United do a very similar thing with Paul Pogba…

“He is already the pin-up boy for Manchester United; he’s on all the posters, he is what sells, he is the main reason why they have got a lot of these commercial contracts and brings a lot of money into the club.


“If you start giving him even more power and give him captaincy, his attitude is not the greatest and we’ve seen this season that he can down tools at times. His attitude is not always spot on.


“I just think it’s a very slippery slope to go down.”

Adrian Durham SLAMS Arsenal boss Unai Emery for starting Petr Cech against former side Chelsea in Europa League final in extraordinary rant

Adrian Durham SLAMS Arsenal boss Unai Emery for starting Petr Cech against former side Chelsea in Europa League final in extraordinary rant

Adrian Durham has blasted Unai Emery’s decision to start Chelsea legend Petr Cech in Wednesday night’s Europa League final – insisting it should ‘not happen’.


Cech will make his final appearance for the Gunners against his former side in the first of two all-England European finals this week.

Petr Cech’s final professional game sees him start in the Europa League final against former side – and Adrian Durham has slammed that decision


Ahead of the clash in Baku, Cech questioned the mentality at the Emirates – insisting there’s ‘no pressure to do anything’.


He said: “At Chelsea, even when we drew at home against a big team, it felt like a funeral in the dressing-room. It was so bad. It felt impossible that we didn’t win.


“But then I came to Arsenal and as much as Arsene Wenger hated losing, he always stayed a gentleman whatever the result. If we won or lost, he just kind of carried on.


“And that was something I’d never experienced before.


“So as strange as it might sound, I think at Arsenal there is not enough pressure.”




Durham believes Unai Emery should have left Cech on the bench, as his loyalty lies with Chelsea

Durham believes Unai Emery should have left Cech on the bench, as his loyalty lies with Chelsea


And those comments, along with the decision to hand a starting berth to the veteran keeper, have seemingly riled Durham who went on an extraordinary rant on Drivetime.


He said: “What he’s basically said [about the club’s mentality] is that it’s easy being at Arsenal as there’s no pressure to do anything.


“I’m looking at Petr Cech here and thinking hang on weren’t you the type of player they were bringing into the club to up the levels across the board?


“Having someone with that experience of winning everything domestically at Chelsea should have galvanised him to make a difference at Arsenal.




Cech has won every major European club honour and remains a club icon at Stamford Bridge

“It wasn’t to sit in the shadows and take your money so your kids can go to school in London – we all know that’s why he went to Arsenal! It’s incredibly convenient for him at the end of the day.”


He continued: “He ain’t ripped up trees, he’s not rocked the boat, he’s not bust heads together in the dressing room in a bid to make Arsenal better.


“So what on earth is Unai Emery thinking about playing Cech tonight?! It should not happen.”


Durham went on to sensationally label Cech a ‘failure’ for his contribution at Arsenal and insists his loyal lies completely with the Blues – thus he should have no involvement in the huge showdown.


“He’s been a failure there,” he added. “He’s about to go back to Chelsea in the summer [heavily linked with director of football role] – that’s where his heart has always been.











“He may have moved, he may have signed a contract, he may have worn that shirt and rubbed the badge, but he is still Chelsea through and through. Everyone can see that!


“I’m not saying he’s going to let anything in the goal, but it’s madness to play him.  He’s ok with his clean sheets, he can say yeah well I did alright.


“But did he really do enough? Was he a real leader in the dressing room? They can make the difference at the end of the day.


“Arsenal needed leaders – everyone could see that. And he hasn’t been one of those for them.”


Durham’s comments come after talkSPORT pundit Tony Cascarino claimed last week that Emery would be committing a ‘sackable offence’ if he chose to play Cech in the Europa League final.

Liverpool legend Terry McDermott slams Gary Lineker’s ‘harsh’ celebration over Lionel Messi’s free-kick goal against Reds

Liverpool legend Terry McDermott slams Gary Lineker’s ‘harsh’ celebration over Lionel Messi’s free-kick goal against Reds

Liverpool legend has labelled Gary Lineker’s celebration over Lionel Messi’s free-kick goal against the Reds on Wednesday night.


Barcelona superstar Messi was in excellent form with a brace in their 3-0 triumph over Liverpool in their Champions League semi-final first leg at the Nou Camp.

Messi’s second strike, which also brought up goal No.600 in his Barca career, wowed all sorts of football fans, particularly Lineker.


Lineker has made it clear his huge admiration for the Argentine numerous times and he was filmed hardly able to contain his excitement when Messi fired the 30-yard free-kick beyond Alisson Becker.





Unsurprisingly, Liverpool fans didn’t appreciate the strike as much as others because it left their team with a mountain to climb for the second leg at Anfield on Tuesday.


Some Kopites have even signed a petition to give Messi a retrospective ban as replays suggest he was lucky to get the free-kick in the first place because he actually fouled Fabinho.


McDermott didn’t make any reference to whether it should have been a free-kick but got his reservations about Lineker’s antics off his chest when speaking to Georgie Bingham and Tony Cascarino on Weekend Sports Breakfast.


He said: â€Å“I tell you what was harsh, watching Gary Lineker jumping up and down when they [Barcelona] scored the third goal.

“I thought that was a bit poor really.


â€Å“He’s normally a nice fella but he got a bit carried away there. I can understand with Rio [Ferdinand] because he’s ex-Manchester United but that’s the way it is.


The result leaves the Reds’ hopes of reaching a second successive Champions League final in tatters.


But McDermott believes it’s not over yet and claimed that if Liverpool can put in a good performance then ‘you never know’.















He added: â€Å“Ok they [Liverpool] didn’t score on Wednesday but I still honestly think if they can get a goal or two early on Tuesday then you just never know after that.


â€Å“It’s disappointing because they didn’t deserve to be beaten anyway and I thought they played brilliantly on the night.


“Never scored which is unusual but if they can do that performance at Anfield you never know.


â€Å“I’m not going to say they’re going to win it but they’ve got a chance.”
