Tottenham’s semi-final comeback at Ajax eclipses Liverpool’s win over Barcelona, says talkSPORT host Jason Cundy

Tottenham’s stunning Champions League semi-final win over Ajax has eclipsed Liverpool’s amazing comeback against Barcelona, according to talkSPORT host Jason Cundy.


The Premier League rivals will meet in Madrid for an unexpected all-English final after two of the most sensational nights in European football history.


Liverpool’s victory over Barca has been dubbed the ‘Miracle of Merseyside’, after Jurgen Klopp’s side staged an incredible comeback from 3-0 down in the first leg to win 4-0 at Anfield.

Spurs followed that up with a dramatic result of their own, fighting back from 2-0 down in Amsterdam, and 3-0 in the tie, to draw 3-3 with Ajax and go through to their first ever European Cup final on away goals.


And Cundy believes Tottenham’s turnaround was a bigger achievement.

Speaking on Wednesday night’s Sports Bar, the ex-Chelsea and Spurs defender said: “They get two goals in three or four minutes and that changed the mood. They were level on the night and when you come back from 2-0 down, anything is possible.


“Just well played Spurs, that was super human tonight.


“We saw something from Liverpool that was just magnificent, but I think tonight eclipses what Liverpool did.

Marc Overmars: Arsenal dealt fresh blow in sporting director search as former winger signs new Ajax contract

Marc Overmars has committed his future to Ajax, effectively ruling out the possibility of becoming Arsenal̢۪s new sporting director by signing a new contract with the Dutch club until 2024.

The former Gunner had been linked with a move back to the Premier League club but he will instead remain with Ajax.


The 45-year-old made 143 appearances for Arsenal between 1997 and 2000.





He retired from football in 2009 and has been part of Ajax̢۪s management since 2012.


â€Å“There are still plenty of challenges at Ajax and I’m having a good time here,” Overmars said.


â€Å“We are taking steps with both the youth academy and the first team and we still want to show a lot.”















Arsenal are still looking for a replacement for Sven Mislintat after the recruitment head left in February.


The north London club had been linked with Monchi, who departed as Roma̢۪s director of football earlier this month.


He decided to return to his former club Sevilla, though, and was announced as their sporting director on Sunday.

Marvin Sordell EXCLUSIVE: Burton Albion striker on accepting depression is a ‘part of his life’, a rollercoaster career and his ‘happy spot’

Marvin Sordell EXCLUSIVE: Burton Albion striker on accepting depression is a ‘part of his life’, a rollercoaster career and his ‘happy spot’

The phrase ‘man up’ isn’t something that sits right with Marvin Sordell when it comes to discussing mental health – especially in regards to men.


Suicide is the biggest killer of men under 50, yet still there remains a taboo among many males to discuss their emotions and feelings.




Marvin Sordell, pictured in BT Sport Film ‘State of Play’, spoke exclusively with talkSPORT.com

Sordell, the Burton Albion striker, was one of those people who kept everything in before revealing the seriousness of his battle with depression in an interview with the Guardian last year.


While on Bolton Wanderers’ books he attempted to take his own life in August 2013 by taking an overdose of tablets. Thankfully, he was unsuccessful in doing so.


That moment of despair culminated from years of Sordell struggling with depression.








Fast forward to the current day, and Sordell has now learned to deal with his mental health problems by accepting them as a ‘part of his life’, turning to things like poetry and cooking to keep his mind at ease.


He also recently launched his own production company (180 Productions), which will give people the opportunity to tell their stories in an imaginative and captivating way.


Sordell does this through the character, Denis Prose, which represents two sides of his consciousness.


The former Watford starlet, who has contributed to State of Play, a BT Sport Film, told talkSPORT.com: “When I first spoke about my depression I wasn’t sure how it was going to be received.








“It was time I finally got some things off my chest, though, after carrying this burden around for so long, and hopefully sharing my experiences of mental health has helped other people in the same situation.


“It’s about acceptance at the end of the day. The acceptance that it’s a part of my life until the day I die.


“I know how to manage my depression now – that’s a really key thing to be in control of.”


So how does the 28-year-old feel when the ‘man up’ tag is flung about at people who are struggling with their mental health.


“My instant reaction is that they’re in a very lucky position to have never experienced any mental health problems in their life,” he explained.

“It’s difficult to understand something you can’t physically feel yourself.


“It doesn’t seem that bad when you hear about it on the surface, it’s only when you experience it first-hand you realise the impact it can make, not just on yourself but your family as well.


“It’s only then you can understand why people react in the way they do when they suffer from mental health problems.”


He continued: “We need to get these people to understand mental health is a part of life.


“Not everyone is going to suffer from deep depression, but a lot of people are going to feel up and down – and we’ve got to educate people why that is.


“Many people’s lives just continue to go in an upward trajectory emotionally, so they can’t fathom these issues that others face.

“There are people who may be in a very deep depression but pretend to be happy, when actually they’re in a suicidal place. I’ve been there after all. 


“There seems to be a taboo, especially when it comes to men, about talking about your thoughts and feelings.”


Sordell, now a father of two, says he has developed his ‘real sense of identity’ away from football.


While the beautiful game is still something he holds a deep affinity for, he has found his ‘happy spot’ away from the pressures and demands of being a professional footballer.


“Becoming a father for the first time made me see the bigger picture in life,” he said.




“My second child arrived a couple of months ago too, so in terms of understanding what is really important  – becoming a dad has greatly enhanced my happiness.


“Not everyone is a parent, but everyone can find their happy spot in life, be that meditating, doing yoga, or reading.


“For me it’s great that I’ve finally managed to gain that real sense of identify outside of football.”


With that said, Sordell won’t be turning his back on the game anytime soon.


It is seven years since he sealed a dream move to the Premier League, with Bolton splashing out a reported £4m for his services from Watford.

In the summer of 2012 he was part of the Great Britain Olympic squad who ended up quarter-finalists, sharing the field with Aaron Ramsey and Ryan Giggs.


It’s safe to say Sordell’s career hasn’t hit the dizzy heights that were expected from him – but nonetheless says he’s ‘very fortune’ to have been able to fulfil his childhood dream.


“This is something I’ve been thinking about a lot over the last few years [how he’ll look back on his career when he retires],” he said.


“Have things gone differently than I expected? Of course. There is a sense of disappointment at times.


“At times you do become a bit jaded because of the situation you’re in.

“When you become accustomed to the highest level and then you go lower down the chain it does become frustrating – but that’s life.


“But if I was to go back to 15-20 years ago when my dream was to be a professional footballer, then I’ve got to be really proud of myself – I achieved my childhood dream after all.”


He added: “If you had said to me back then I’d play in the Premier League, represent Great Britain at the London Olympics, while playing with so many top players along the way – I’d have bit your hand off.


“I still love playing football – I’m desperate to maintain my love for the game. I’ve had a lot of ups and down and that does take its toll on you.


“But then I think to myself that I’ve achieved what so many youngsters dream of doing later in life, so I’m very fortunate ultimately.”

Going into coaching after retirement is not something which interests Sordell, but says a role in player care would be an enticing one for him.


“Player care is such a huge part of the game. That’s something I’d potentially move into when I hang up my boots,” he revealed.


“It’s normally external organisations pushing it on to the clubs about the player’s wellbeing, so I’d like to think the former could be doing a bit more in terms of support for these people suffering in silence.


“I think it’s important that we drum this into youngsters from an early age the importance of this subject.











“I’ve spoken with a lot of academies, so delivering workshops and assisting in that sort of thing would definitely be of interest to me.”


The former England Under-21 starlet ends the interview by relaying a message to anyone suffering from mental health problems.


“You must reach out to someone. People aren’t mind readers at the end of the day,” he explained.


“It can be anyone, a friend or family member, or even a work colleague.


“You’ll be surprised how well that is received and how many other people are struggling with their emotions.

Wolves 3-1 Arsenal: Unai Emery insists Gunners can still finish in Premier League top four, but admits it’s a ‘difficult target’

Unai Emery is confident Arsenal can still finish inside the Premier League’s top four, though Wednesday’s defeat by Wolves makes it a ‘difficult task’ for his side.


A 3-1 loss at Molineux leaves the Gunners fifth in the table and a point behind London rivals Chelsea, with three matches remaining, taking the chances of a top four finish out of their hands.





Arsenal’s top four hopes were dealt a real blow on Wednesday

Arsenal’s top four hopes were dealt a real blow on Wednesday



A draw would have been good enough for Arsenal to move back into the last Champions League qualification place, but first-half goals from Ruben Neves, Matt Doherty and Diogo Jota set Wolves on their way to another home defeat of a big six side.


Emery’s side face another testing away game at Leicester on Sunday, hours before Chelsea play Manchester United – whose top four hopes rest on the edge of a knife – at Old Trafford.


“We lost in our hands the opportunity for fourth but we can also recover this opportunity,” said Emery, whose team could also book a place in next season’s Champions League by winning the Europa League.















“We have lost opportunities in the last two matches, losing to Crystal Palace and here (at Wolves) but the last three matches we play in the Premier League we have opportunities.


“Generally we are now disappointed but we need to look at all the season. We lost this opportunity today but we need to prepare as best as possible for Leicester. Again it is very difficult but hopefully we can take something.


“We will be doing all we can in Leicester on Sunday to take the three points. Top four is the target, a difficult target, but we have a chance in this competition and also in the Europa League.”


Arsenal started the match at Molineux strongly but never recovered from Neves’ opening goal after 28 minutes and found themselves 3-0 behind at the break.

The Gunners managed to stem the tide in the second half and Sokratis Papastathopoulos headed a reply late on.


Emery said: “We didn’t recover quickly enough from their first goal but in the second half we had recovered our game plan and we were better.


“We needed to be more calm and try to impose ourselves on them but they were better than us and were more strong in their game plan.”





Arsenal boss Unai Emery insists his side can still secure a top-four spot in the Premier League despite its insipid 3-1 defeat to Wolves on Wednesday.

Gareth Bale future: 91 per cent of Real Madrid fans vote for Welshman to leave LaLiga giants

Gareth Bale’s Real Madrid future appears to be hanging by a thread.


The Welshman has fallen down the pecking order at the Bernabeu with manager Zinedine Zidane even refusing to bring him off the bench as they slumped to a defeat at home to Real Betis last week.

Bale is on a whopping £650,000-a-week contract but it’s understood Los Blancos are desperate to get him off the wage bill as they look to revamp their attacking options this summer.


And it looks as though supporters are desperate to see the 29-year-old go too.


Spanish newspaper AS ran a poll giving Real fans their verdict on each player and whether they should stay or leave.


Almost five million took part in the survey and only nine per cent believe Bale should stay at Real.

Mariano Diaz, Zidane’s son Luca, Dani Ceballos and Isco were also urged to go. Meanwhile, Dani Caravajal, Vinicius Jr, Sergio Ramos, Brahim Diaz and Alvaro Odriozola were the top five players the fans want to see stay.


Bale went straight down the tunnel following Zidane’s latest snub on Sunday and did not wave goodbye to the Bernabeu crowd because ‘he has no plans to leave Real Madrid this summer’, according to reports in Spain.


Marca wrote on Tuesday, Bale ‘did not say goodbye to anyone; not his team-mates, not the coaching fans, nor the supporters because he has no plans to leave.











Bale reportedly told his team-mates that he’ll be happy to stay and ‘play golf’ next season if he’s not selected to play, according to Spanish radio station Radioestaio.


“I’ve got three years left on my contract,” he said.


“If they want me to go, they’ll need to pay me £15m per season. If not, I’ll stay here. And if I have to play golf, I will.”

With Denis Suarez failing to make an impact at the Emirates following his January loan move from Barcelona, Gunners boss Unai Emery is drawing up a list of alternatives to improve his side’s creativity and dimension from the flanks.















The interest in Fraser comes with Suarez, who also played for Emery during a loan spell at Sevilla in the 2014/15 season, having only made four substitute appearances since arriving in north London.


There is an option to make the deal permanent, but that seems very unlikely to be triggered at this stage.
