Sport News 24/7 By David de Winter - Sports Editor @TLE_Sport  @davidjdewinter Despite losing the final Test, England’s cricketers still acquitted themselves admirably by beating (former) world number one side South Africa 2-1 on their home patch.  They dominated the admittedly mediocre Proteas in Durban and Johannesburg and were resilient in Cape Town, despite a final day wobble.  There were some memorable individual performances and some not so memorable ones.  Here are my marks out of ten. Alastair Cook -...

Sport News 24/7 By Billy Stephens  @BillyLaughs  @TLE_Sport As the 2016 January transfer window enters its final week, let’s take a look at what new recruits the Premier League title challengers want, need and have secured.  But, firstly, who do I mean by title challengers? Leicester City, Manchester City, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur. There is now a five point gap between 4th place Spurs and 5th place Manchester United, the same points gap as between 4th and Leicester in 1st,...

Sport News 24/7 By Sean Simara  @Sean_FootyMad So we're down to the final four teams in the race to Super Bowl 50.  Who will be heading to San Francisco?  Here’s my take on who will make it to the biggest game of them all. AFC Championship Game New England Patriots @ Denver Broncos We knew it would end like this didn't we?  Another chapter and probably the last chapter in the Tom Brady v Peyton Manning book.  I mentioned at...

Sport News 24/7 By Sean Simara  @Sean_FootyMad  @TLE_Sport Kansas City Chiefs @ New England Patriots Embed from Getty Images The opening game of the Divisional round will see the Chiefs travel to the New England Patriots. The Pats of course came off a bye-week and that rest could be vital to a victory here. They will be hoping to have some players back from injury. Julian Edelman, Dont'a Hightower & Sebastian Volmer are on that list and if they start...

Could Pep Guardiola be the next Arsenal Manager? Sport News 24/7 Pep Guardiola revealed this week that he would like to manage in the Premier League after leaving Bayern Munich at the end of the season. Notorious for only signing short-term contracts, the former Barcelona boss told current employers Bayern that he would not extend his contract in Germany when it expires at the end of this season. Guardiola, 44, has been linked heavily with various Premier League clubs Manchester...

Sport News 24/7 By Billy Stephens  @BillyLaughs  @TLE_Sport In their last two games, against Chelsea and Swansea City, Manchester United have shown much more attacking intent than previously seen under Louis van Gaal this season.  The Dutchman is seemingly attempting to adapt his tactical approach to be more like the traditional style of play expected by the Old Trafford faithful. Van Gaal's style of football is usually patient, possession-based and low risk.  This is emphasised by Manchester United having kept...

Sport News 24/7 By David de Winter - Sports Editor @davidjdewinter  @TLE_Sport It’s been a funny old season in the Premier League – certainly the most topsy-turvy I can remember.  And whilst the English leagues eschew a winter break, TLE Sport has opted for the continental approach and taken a few weeks off (although it is debatable whether it will improve its performance in the second half of the season).  Thoroughly unrefreshed and rather too full of Christmas cheer, here’s...
