| Buttner: I left Man United to win trophies Posted: 24 Jun 2014 09:36 AM PDT The Russiansconfirmed the Dutch full-back had joined the club onon Monday, butdetails of thetransfer and the players contract have yet to be revealed. The 25-year-oldhas already joined up with his new team-mates and will be present at Dinamostraining camp in Austria. United will not compete in European football next season after finishing a lowly seventh in the Premier League last season. And Buttner, who made only 28 appearances at United after joining from Vitesse in 2012, believes he has a better chance of success in the Russian capital. I want to play in the Champions League and win trophies,Buttner toldDinamos official website. Dinamo are building a very strong team and I am sure that we will be good enough to try and win the league title this season. This is my first time in Moscow and I will need time to adjust with my family. They flew out with me, so it would be easier to adapt. The training ground also has fantastic facilities. I am happy that I joined Dinamo. This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| Mexico must remain calm, says Hernandez Posted: 24 Jun 2014 02:18 AM PDT The Manchester United forwardheaded home Mexico's last goal in a 3-1 win over Group A rivals Croatia on Monday as Miguel Herrera's men ensured progression to the next stage. Captain Rafael Marquez and wingerAndres Guardado were also on the scoresheet for Mexico in a dominant performance. Croatia were reduced to 10 men late on as Ante Rebic was sent off for a rash challenge on Carlos Pena. Mexico will now face theNetherlands in the second roundand Hernandez knows that staying calm will be key to their hopes ofreaching the last eight for the first time on foreign soil. "We're really happy, really pleased," Hernandez toldFIFA.com. "We have to stay very calm, very humble and not get carried away. This is just one more step forward, a very important one, but just one more step. "If we want to make history we have to beat the Netherlandsand keep moving along the path we've set out for ourselves." Hernandez's effort was his first for his country in 13 matches. And, after a difficult domestic season at Old Trafford, the 26-year-old was delighted to bring that drought to an end. "This whole year has been very tough," he added. "Players need confidence more than anything else, and I've been very short of it. Very few people have shown faith in me over this past year." Mexico face the Netherlands in Fortaleza on June 29.

| Owen backs Neville for England job in 2016 Posted: 24 Jun 2014 12:30 AM PDT England's poor FIFA World Cup campaignhas sparked an inquest into the state of the national team and Hodgsonhas come in for some fierce criticism after their early exit in Brazil. Owen,who scored 40 goals in 89 appearances for his country, believes that the answer could lie within the existing coaching set-up. Former Manchester United full-back Neville, who boasts 85 England caps, is Hodgson's right-hand man and Owen is confident that the 39-year-old could make the step up to the top job. "If the Football Association is planning beyond the end ofRoy Hodgson's current contract in 2016, they should look no further than the man sitting alongside him as the nextEnglandmanager. Gary Neville," Owen wrote in The Telegraph. "Neville can spend the next two years being readied for the senior role and see the job through with the current crop. "If we really want to be bold we have to consider whatGermanydid when they entrusted Jurgen Klinsmann with the 2006 World Cup campaign, or indeed whatBarcelonadid with Pep Guardiola. "There are moments when you should trust your gut instinct that a former player has the knowledge, the respect, the aura and the natural leadership skills to do the job. Neville has these qualities. "I would be confident of progression – and genuinely optimistic about the direction we will take – if Neville was leading rather than assisting England in Russia in 2018." Owen also suggested that it would be a mistake for his former Liverpool team-mate Steven Gerrard to retire. The midfielder insisted at the weekend that he would not rush into a decision over his international future amid reports that he would call it a day for England. "Ido not see why Gerrard cannot leave the door open to be used as and when his country calls upon him," Owen added. "He does not need to play every minute of every qualifying game, but to discard his experience and desire – especially as he will be invaluable to the likes of (Ross) Barkley over the next few years – would be a waste of his talent."
