Key information about King Power Stadium

The King Power Stadium was built in 2002 and is now the home of Leicester City football club. The ground is located in Leicester in England and is actually rather close to the Foxes’ old stadium, Filbert Street ground.

Its current capacity stands at 32,273 and has a pitch the size of 105m x 68m. The surface of the field is covered with Desso GrassMaster’s hybrid turf – with no running track surrounding it – and has undersoil heating installed.

The highest ever attendance that was recorded at King Power Stadium was set on 1 April 2006 when 32,488 fans watched Leicester Tigers’ clash against Bath Rugby in the Heineken Cup.

A history of King Power Stadium

The King Power Stadium is still a relatively new ground and it’s been hosting Leicester City ever since it was erected back in 2002. Prior to that, the club had been playing their football at Filbert Street since 1891 and the first ideas of potentially making a switch to a new stadium were conceived following the Taylor Report in the early 1990s.

Still, with Filbert Street getting gradually revamped over the years, they decided to invest into their current facilities rather than starting from scratch somewhere else. But, as the club became more successful with the attendance soaring, it became painfully obvious that Filbert Street can’t exactly match their ambitions any longer.

In early 1998, new plans were announced for a potential 40,000 all-seater stadium that was supposed to be located in Bede Island South and hopefully finished in time for the 2000/01 campaign. However, the idea was abandoned on 5 January 2000. But they were adamant on making some changes and it was either reviving the idea of a new stadium or further improvements to the old one. Either way, something had to give.

With that in mind, on 2 November 2000 they finally settled for the former option, outlining plans for a 32,000-seat stadium at nearby Freeman’s Wharf, and setting their sight for the 2003/04 season while at the same time hoping it could get finished for the start of the 2002/03 campaign instead. Work began in the summer of 2001, and by 10 October that same year, they got some wonderful news – the new stadium would be ready for the 2002/03 season.

But even though that was a joyous occasion, the stadium did cost them around £37m and with Leicester just getting relegated from the Premier League, the club’s debt was reported to be around £30m.

The stadium was officially opened by club icon Gary Lineker on 23 July 2002 as the former striker cut the red ribbon. Shortly after, on 2 August, Leicester played Athletic Club in a friendly clash with the game ending in a 1-1 draw in front of approximately 24,000 people. The first official competitive match took place just six days after that with the hosts beating Watford 2–0 in front of a near-capacity crowd of 31,022.

The record attendance for a football clash at the stadium is 32,242, which was set during Leicester City’s first home game of the 2015/16 season against Sunderland, while the overall record attendance of 32,488 was actually recorded for a rugby union match between Leicester Tigers and Bath in 2006.

On 1 March 2013, the club’s Thai owners King Power bought the stadium through their company K Power Holdings Co, Ltd. In April 2018, the initial planning for the expansion and development of the ground was announced.

Name: Gonzalo Montiel

Club: River Plate

Date of Birth: 1 January 1997

Position: Right-back, right midfielder

GONZALO MONTIEL – HIS CAREER SO FAR

Even though he is only 23 years of age, Gonzalo Montiel is already starting to attract interest from teams from abroad. Of course, nowadays, 23 might already be old for a young talent on the rise but the Argentine is slowly but surely making his mark known in the world of football. For the entirety of his still short career, Montiel has been playing for River Plate and River Plate only.

His youth career started at the club and after successfully rising through the ranks and impressing the right people in the right places, the defender has managed to ensure his place in the historic club’s senior squad. His first-team journey began back in 2016 when he was 19 years of age and it’s safe to say that he hasn’t looked back since.

Fast forward a couple of years into the future and Montiel is not only an important member of the squad but has also registered 91 appearances for the club, scoring one goal and assisting seven in the process as well. Of course, it was never actually his job to rattle the inside of the opposition’s net but he does seem to have some predispositions for attacking play too.

It should also not be forgotten that he has also featured for his country as well, tallying two appearances for Argentina’s U20 squad before being named in the senior squad for friendly clashes against Venezuela and Morocco by coach Lionel Scaloni. Soon afterwards, on 22 March, Montiel finally got his senior bow against Venezuela and has since recorded three more appearances as well – one against Morocco, one against Chile and one against Mexico, all in friendly games.

Now, after spending years at River Plate, he is seemingly set to leave the club and the country for greener pastures in Europe. With only a solitary year left on his contract, Montiel is suddenly a very attractive option for some Premier League outfits.

TRANSFER LATEST

According to the latest transfer news, Montiel is a wanted man and West Ham United are one of the teams looking to take the young defender to London. However, the Hammers’ initial bid seems to have been rejected by River Plate and they will have to increase the offer if they are really to land the 23-year-old’s signature.

David Moyes seems adamant on improving his defence but the money is also tight. Still, big talents rarely come for cheap and if the transfer rumours are to be believed, Montiel, albeit with a single year on his contract, might not be any different as well.

PLAYER PROFILE

Montiel is a right-back by trade but he seems to be willing to venture higher up the pitch and can also be utilised as a wing-back or even a right midfielder if needed. This is mostly due to his tendency to oversee the whole flank and assist his team in the advanced areas of the pitch. Due to his good positioning and understanding of when and where to move, the 23-year-old is a great asset in the final third.

That is where he can combine with his teammates quite well because of an impressive passing range and an eye for a good and penetrative ball into the danger areas. But we shouldn’t disregard his defensive duties and abilities. He seems like an intelligent defender who knows when to engage his marker and when to lure them into a trap. Overall, Montiel is solid in performing the tasks that are asked of him and can undoubtedly improve to become a great player.

Tottenham ace Dele Alli has been banned for the Premier League game against Manchester United for a post on social media about coronavirus, the BBC understands. 

Ex-Spurs star Paul Robinson believes the Englishman will be a “big miss” for Jose Mourinho as he prepares to face his old club.

Speaking exclusively to Football Insider, the former White Hart Lane goalkeeper insists Alli will have wanted to build upon his fine run of form before the nationwide lockdown was imposed in response to the coronavirus pandemic. The forward has been also fined £50,000 and ordered to take an education course, and he will miss the clash with the Red Devils as a result.

Spurs are currently seven points behind fourth-placed Chelsea and head into the game knowing they must win if they are to meet Mourinho’s top four ambitions.

When asked if he thinks Alli would have started against United, Robinson said: “I would have thought so because he was just coming into form before the break. He will be a big miss. He just started playing well under Jose. If Spurs are without him and Lo Celso it will be a big blow.

“Clubs will have to utilise their whole squad throughout this period though and if we are playing three games a week, he would not have played all three anyway. Mourinho will have to shuffle his squad.”

It is difficult to disagree with Robinson on this one, as Alli has a strong record against the Red Devils. Indeed, the England international has won five out of the 10 matches that he has played against them and he has bagged three goals against United so far (Transfermarkt).

Furthermore, the 24-year-old is the club’s third-highest goalscorer this season, closely behind Harry Kane and Son Heung-min, as he has scored nine goals in all competitions.

Spurs have lost the last two meetings between the teams, which could be cause for concern for Mourinho as his side must win to keep their realistic chances of Champions League qualification alive.

To compound the difficulty of the task, Alli has been suspended, and the Portuguese could be forced to call upon Erik Lamela instead. The Argentine has arguably struggled for consistency up until now and is surely a downgrade on the Englishman, as he has averaged fewer shots and dribbles per game than his teammate, via WhoScored.

As it stands, Alli’s absence will no doubt be a bitter blow and Tottenham may come to regret his earlier indiscretion if they are beaten on Friday night.

Tottenham fans, do you think Alli’s presence will be missed against Man United? Let us know in the comments below!

It is funny how quickly things can change.

When Fernando Llorente missed an incredible chance to register against Watford on Wednesday night, the Tottenham Hotspur fans may have thought it was going to be another one of those nights for the Spaniard.

The 33-year-old is currently being tasked with leading the line in the absence of Harry Kane, which is not exactly the easiest thing in the world.

Overall, Llorente had a difficult night against Watford, but there proved to be a fairytale ending for the former Athletic Bilbao man as he netted an 87th-minute winner in Spurs’ 2-1 victory.

As expected, there were wild celebrations when Llorente registered and it could well be a turning point for the Spaniard, who was linked with an exit this month by The Daily Mail in December.

The Tottenham fans did a flip when Llorente – earning £75,000 a week according to Spotrac – scored the winner, with a large number taking to social media to lavish praise on the centre-forward.

A selection of the reaction from the club’s supporters can be seen below:

All-time greats met in New YorkBoth boast record-setting trophy haulsHave worked hard to become the bestWHAT HAPPENED?

Two all-time greats have crossed paths on a couple of occasions during their record-setting careers, with their latest chat coming in New York. Messi was in the Big Apple while on MLS duty with Inter Miami, while tennis icon Djokovic is chasing down US Open glory at Flushing Meadows.

AdvertisementGettyTHE BIGGER PICTURE

Messi has U.S. Open Cup glory of his own to aim at over the coming weeks, having helped to book a place in the final of that competition, and has already landed the 44th trophy of his remarkable career when inspiring Inter Miami to the inaugural Leagues Cup crown.

WHAT THEY SAID

Djokovic, who has a historic haul of 23 Grand Slam titles to his name, enjoys picking the brains of Messi and has told of his latest meeting with the Argentine superstar: “It's a second time we met with each other. We talked 15 minutes about everything, I would like to meet him and talk about everything again. Messi is a phenomenon. He's a huge champion, I have a huge respect for him.”

GettyWHAT HAPPENS NEXT?

Messi emerged victorious in nine successive fixtures upon joining up with Inter Miami, but was shut out in a 0-0 draw with Nashville during his latest MLS outing and still has work to do in order to help the Florida-based franchise book a place in the post-season play-offs.

The USWNT striker hasn't scored for her country since February, and another big miss won't silence any doubters.

This was Alex Morgan's chance. After several months of hearing about it, this was the night she could finally end her goalscoring drought. She was handed the perfect opportunity, a chance from the penalty spot that could silence any doubts.

She missed it. Morgan's shot smashed off the post. The drought continues.

It was the best chance the USWNT had in a 0-0 draw with Colombia that saw both teams largely nullify the other's threat. Save for Morgan's penalty and one more clear-cut chance for the USWNT striker, the U.S. was largely quiet. Colombia, too, were not quite a it, with their star player, Linda Caicedo, marshalled well by the USWNT defense.

Overall, it was more of the same for the USWNT, who looked a lot like the team that fell short at the World Cup this past summer. The Olympic countdown is on, and the U.S. remains a team that could use a bit more life.

GOAL rates the USWNT's players from America First Field…

GettyGoalkeeper & Defense

Alyssa Naeher (6/10):

Barely had to do anything as Colombia had just two shots, with only one on target.

Crystal Dunn (6/10):

A bit quiet in the first half but got more involved as the game wore on. Came off in the second half with one eye on the NWSL playoffs.

Alana Cook (6/10):

Not bad, but looked a bit slow at points, especially whenever Caicedo was anywhere near her.

Naomi Girma (7/10):

It's just a constant at this point: Girma is good every time she's on the field. Was shifted to the right to help defend Caicedo, and did a great job in keeping her quiet.

Emily Fox (8/10):

A fantastic performance from the fullback, who limited the other team's best player while having a few impressive moments of her own.

AdvertisementGettyMidfield

Andi Sullivan (6/10):

Solid defensively but didn't do much to help the attack. Part of the downsides of playing her alongside another No.6.

Emily Sonnett (6/10):

Similar to Sullivan. Definitely helped control the pace, but the U.S. had no real attacking edge with this midfield group.

Lindsey Horan (6/10):

Created a few good moments, but didn't have many options at points. Took a scary hit near the end, but thankfully avoided a serious head injury.

GettyAttack

Lynn Williams (6/10):

Plenty of effort, but it took a bit of time for her to get into the game on the attacking end. Was definitely active, though, so a good performance overall.

Alex Morgan (4/10):

Missed one chance that was on a silver platter and then botched the penalty. The goalless streak goes on.

Trinity Rodman (7/10):

Was willing to try things and solid on the ball, even if she didn't quite have the end product. A dangerous player almost every time she plays.

Getty ImagesSubs & Manager

Becky Sauerbrunn (6/10):

Great to have her back. The long-time captain played 45 impressive minutes as she looks ahead to one last Olympic run.

Ashley Hatch (6/10):

Had a fantastic chance in the 75th minute that produced a great save. Was dangerous after coming on.

Savannah DeMelo (7/10):

Brought a whole lot of life into the game. End product wasn't quite there, but you can't fault her effort or energy.

Casey Krueger (6/10):

Nearly gave away a penalty, but the key word there is nearly. Otherwise, solid defensively.

Sophia Smith (6/10):

Could have scored in the final moments, but was unlucky as her shot hit the post. Still, a good runout.

Jaedyn Shaw (N/A):

Welcome to the USWNT! Came on very late, but definitely added something. Would be nice to see more of her going forward.

Twila Kilgore (5/10):

Lineup choices left you wondering what we were supposed to learn from this. There were so many dynamic, young players in the team, but Kilgore opted for more of the same in a friendly that could have been a good litmus test for new players.

La Roja ran out 1-0 winners over the European champions in Sydney as they defied the odds of being without 12 key players to seal the trophy

Spain won the Women's World Cup for the first time on Sunday, defeating England 1-0 in the final in Sydney thanks to Olga Carmona's first-half strike. It was an eventful game, with Lauren Hemp hitting the bar and Jennifer Hermoso seeing Mary Earps save her second-half penalty, but one that ultimately saw just the one goal settle it as La Roja broke the Lionesses' hearts and prevailed at Stadium Australia.

Hemp's strike against the woodwork was the first big moment of a tight game, some great work by England around the box ending with Ella Toone teeing up the forward whose effort was extremely close to breaking the deadlock. Spain should've scored a few minutes later, but Salma Paralluelo mistimed her effort from Mariona Caldentey's cross and then Alba Redondo's attempt at the back post was well-saved by Earps.

It was shortly after that Carmona did break the deadlock, with Lucy Bronze losing the ball in a central area and then seeing her vacant right-hand side immediately exploited as Ona Batlle switched play to Mariona and she slipped in Carmona to arrow home a shot across Earps and into the bottom corner. Paralluelo hit the post right on half-time, too, and it was no surprise to see England make changes at the break, with Lauren James and Chloe Kelly coming on as head coach Sarina Wiegman switched to a back four.

It had a positive impact, for sure, but James' well-saved shot was the Lionesses' only real chance in the second period, despite the lift the crowd gave the team once Earps had denied Hermoso from the spot. England threw everything at Spain, but it was not to be, with Jorge Vilda's side emerging victorious for the first time in this competition's history.

GOAL breaks down the winners & losers from Stadium Australia…

GettyWINNER: Aitana Bonmati

If Aitana Bonmati doesn't win the Ballon d'Or in a few months' time, it will be an absolute crime. After an absolutely sensational domestic season with Barcelona, in which she helped the Catalans win the league, the Super Cup and the Women's Champions League, the midfielder was consistently excellent during this World Cup.

Her two goal and two assist performance in the last 16 was the obvious highlight, but Bonmati's display in the final was elegant as ever, too. She completed all-but-two of her passes, both of which were in the final third, completed six dribbles and created two chances.

It's not just what she does in attack, though. The Spain star won possession back nine times in this match, too, made two interceptions and won both of her tackles. She was on another level in midfield, as she has been for the entirety of the last 12 months. A well-deserved winner of the Golden Ball.

AdvertisementGettyLOSER: Lucy Bronze

The most experienced player in this England squad, to watch Bronze struggle in the manner she did on Sunday was certainly a surprise. This is someone who has won four Champions League titles and played at the highest level for so long, yet the way she gave the ball away in the middle of the park in the build-up to Spain's goal was incredibly poor.

Within moments, the space she had vacated from her right wing-back role had been exploited and Carmona had put La Roja ahead. Sadly, Bronze never really recovered from there in what was an error-laden display.

Getty ImagesWINNER: Spain

Spanish women's football has been on the rise massively in recent years, and this triumph on Sunday was the biggest example so far.

Last August, the nation won the Under-20 Women's World Cup for the first time. In October, they followed it up with a second U17 World Cup title in their history, having also won the previous edition in 2018. Then on Sunday, just two months after Barcelona had ensured the latest Women's Champions League winners were also from the Spanish league, La Roja topped it all off with a first ever senior Women's World Cup title.

The investment and growth in the game in Spain is evident from the incredible talent pool the country has available to it, as securing this trophy without 12 top-level stars really shows.

LOSER: Those left of 'Las 15'

And that's the other thing it's important to remember. Spain won this trophy without 12 top-level stars, all of them withdrawing from selection until they had seen improvements within the federation that they were satisfied with.

Patri Guijarro, Mapi Leon and Claudia Pina of Barcelona; Ainhoa Moraza and Lola Gallardo of Atletico Madrid; Leila Ouahabi and Laia Aleixandri of Manchester City; and Nerea Eizaguirre and Amaiur Sarriegi of Real Sociedad are those that remain of 'Las 15', those names that initially stated their intention was not to be called up for Spain.

Many of them are among the best players in the world and they could have been part of this incredible history, but they chose to stand for what they believe is something bigger, sacrificing a lot in the progress.

This will have no doubt hurt them a little, then, even if they will be happy for friends and team-mates. They deserve credit, though, for continuing to fight for what they believe is right.

More managers have been sacked this season than in any previous campaign, but plenty of others have thrived in the Premier League jungle.

The Premier League has gone sacking crazy this season, with 14 managers in total losing their jobs during the 2022-23 campaign. Some of the dismissals came as a surprise, others were long overdue, while one or two came close to breaking the internet.

This churn of head coaches shows little sign of slowing down next season, either. The financial rewards for remaining in the Premier League or qualifying for Europe are so massive that clubs will do anything to earn a few more precious points.

With so many different sackees to keep track of, you might need your memory jogging to recall some of the coaches that have taken charge of top-flight sides over the past nine months. So, we've decided to provide a valuable public service by assessing the jobs done by all 34 Premier League managers this season.

A quick disclaimer before we get going: There is a really crowded field at the top of the list that were hard to separate, with a whole of host of candidates thriving in wildly different conditions this season. Picking an order for the bottom end of the list wasn't much easier. A variety of factors including pre-job expectations, budget and player quality, all influenced each manager's final position.

A few of the rankings might change when the final round of fixtures is complete, too. Anyway, enough stalling, let's get underway…

(C)GettyImages34Frank Lampard

Frank Lampard nearly dragged teams into the relegation dogfight this season. That's enough to earn bottom spot, surely? After being sacked by Everton with the Toffees languishing in the drop zone, James Corden (apparently) convinced Todd Boehly to give his mate another shot at the Chelsea job on an interim basis.

Many predicted that Lampard's return would go badly – and they have been proved right. The Blues went perilously close to failing to win any of Lampard's games in charge, with a narrow victory over Bournemouth sparing them that particular dishonour.

Although the Blues are dysfunctional on and off the pitch, their caretaker manager has done a poor job since taking over. His team selections have often been bizarre, he's failed to impart any sort of identity on his players, and he's refused to take responsibility for his failings when dealing with the media.

Going back to the Bridge was supposed to be a free hit for Lampard. However, after flopping so spectacularly, he will leave at the end of the season with his managerial reputation in the gutter.

AdvertisementGetty33Nathan Jones

Nathan Jones, we will never forget you. He may have essentially condemned Southampton to relegation by losing six of his seven Premier League games in charge, but he did provide a long list of all-time great press conference quotes.

Some of his greatest hits included claiming Wolves were at an advantage after being reduced to 10 men, starting beef with Havant & Waterlooville manager Paul Doswell, having a pop at his own fans after a 3-0 defeat to Brentford and boldly stating that he was the best coach in Europe during his time at Luton Town.

Oh yeah, and this beauty of course: "I could have stayed in a mining community, been a PE teacher and had a nice life, married a nice Welsh girl. I don’t. I want to test myself on every level & that’s nothing against Welsh women. I want to test myself."

Jones was scarily out of his depth at the top level. The only reason he's not bottom? Well, he stopped Man City romping to a potential quadruple by knocking them out of the Carabao Cup!

Getty Images32Steve Davis

Steve Davis provided Wolves with the anti-new-manager bounce this season. Drafted in as a short-term solution when Bruno Lage was let go, Davis ended up staying in the dugout until the World Cup break. He only managed one Premier League victory – when his side squeaked past Nottingham Forest courtesy of a Ruben Neves penalty – with a 4-0 thrashing at the hands of Leicester marking a particular low point.

In short, Davis showed little to suggest he belongs in the Premier League, which is probably why Nantwich Town, Crewe Alexandra and Leyton Orient are the other clubs on his managerial CV.

Getty Images31Brendan Rodgers

The thing that irked Leicester fans so much about Brendan Rodgers wasn't necessarily the Foxes' poor results. Instead, it was his complete inability to hide the fact that he had grown tired of life at the King Power Stadium that really wrangled.

Rodgers was sacked with his previously top-four contending side deep in the relegation mire. His poor recruitment and odd selection decisions were a big reason why.

Although he worked wonders in the East Midlands before it unravelled, his final months as Leicester manager were properly grim. Simply put, that squad of players should have been doing better and Rodgers must shoulder a significant portion of the blame for their abject failure.

The Chelsea star gives his top advice on how to travel in style

The city of Pamplona is significant for several reasons. It’s home to Miguel Indurain, the only man to win the Tour de France. It’s also the birthplace of Cordero al Chilindrón – a slow-cooked lamb and pepper-based stew that looks a bit like something you’d get for your school dinner on a bad day, but tastes delicious.

Perhaps most importantly, though, Pamplona is the hometown of César Azpilicueta, the man who has made more appearances for Chelsea Football Club than any other non-English player in history. Azpi started his career in Pamplona, playing for Osasuna. He made his debut in a 2–0 to Real Madrid. He was 17 years old and he’d have been playing against Raúl and Ruud Van Nistelrooy — what’s in Basque? Azpi went on a classic right-back’s journey in that he started as a forward and a midfielder, before being thrown in at right-back during an injury crisis, excelling, and making a magnificent career out of it.

Olympique Marseille came knocking pretty quickly, but Azpi’s French adventure only lasted for a couple of seasons before Chelsea took the plunge on him and, well, you know the rest. He’s still there, club captain, club legend, part of the furniture. He’s travelled Spain, France, England, and he’s been playing European football for twelve-and-a-half years, so who better to give us a few travel tips, than César Azpilicueta?

Getty ImagesTIP #1 Pick your travel companions carefully

After Chelsea beat Manchester City in Porto in 2021, Azpi travelled back to London with the trophy beside him on the plane. We asked him if it was filled with champagne, but Azpi won’t be drawn on such matters – ever the model professional. He says. And who knows? Maybe, come May, Azpi will get his wish.

AdvertisementGettyTIP #2 If you book a safari trip, don’t then immediately sign for Olympique Marseille.

Twelve years ago, Azpi booked a whole safari trip—the trip of a lifetime—and then Marseille got him to sign on the dotted line, and that safari trip disappeared in front of his very eyes, and Azpi hasn’t been on safari to this very day. Another way to look at this is that if your dream is to play in Ligue 1, maybe book a safari trip in the hope that it’s foiled by a football club from the south of France.

GettyTIP #3 Always take a spa session over beach football.

Azpi is still playing at the top level of professional football at the age of 33, which is no mean feat these days. Maybe part of that is down to him knowing how to take it easy. [over beach football], The thing is, you might remember Ben Chilwell told us he was a big fan of beach football, and we have photographic evidence of Azpi bicycle kicking a ball in a swimming pool, supposedly whipped into him by his wife or his daughter… we’re just saying—maybe the odd game of sandy five-a-side won’t destroy your burgeoning football career.
