“He is in the shape of his life” – Thomas Tuchel hails ‘out of this world’ England star after their win over Serbia
Thomas Tuchel singled out Harry Kane for praise after England’s 2-0 win against Serbia in FIFA World Cup qualifying on Thursday.
Kane was named in the starting XI for the contest at Wembley and played for 65 minutes before he was replaced by Phil Foden in the 65th minute.
After the game, Tuchel was asked if Foden could challenge Kane to start important matches for England going forward. He said:
“It’s a big ask for [Phil Foden] to challenge Harry [Kane] at the moment. [Kane is] in the shape of his life. His attitude, work rate, quality and finishing ratio is just out of control [and] out of this world.”
Foden, who came on as a false nine for Kane, marked his appearance with an assist, setting up Eberechi Eze for England’s second goal. It was Foden’s first appearance for the national team since March.
Speaking after the match, the Manchester City star expressed excitement at returning to international duty. He said:
“It’s amazing to be back. I’m so happy to be back in the squad with these great players and I’m enjoying it. I thought I did well. I created some chances, we were unlucky not to put a few away. Overall, I have to be happy with the impact.”
The 25-year-old also hoped that his versatility could help him secure his place in Tuchel’s squad.
England’s 2-0 win against Serbia extended their World Cup qualifying run to seven wins from seven games.
Speaking about the match, Tuchel admitted that the game wasn’t a walk in the park but was happy with his side’s first-half performance.
“It was a difficult match. It was complicated because they knew everything about us and we knew nothing about them. Go through the list of players, they are at top clubs, they play in top leagues. They have individual quality, they came with new energy and they made it a final for them,” he said.
“I liked the first half a lot. I think we deserved to go up, I think we deserved to have maybe a second goal with Harry’s header. Second-half, we didn’t get the pressing right all the time, they escaped sometimes from the deep build-up into fast attacks so the back four had to work hard to keep the clean sheet.
“We had to overcome some difficult moments but I like it, not everything is easy. Not every win is 2-0, 3-0, 5-0. It is good. We kept a clean sheet and it was decisive in the end.”
The Three Lions will face Albania in their last group game on Sunday, November 16.

“If I play in the PL now in a top team, I’ll still score the same (goals)” – Cristiano Ronaldo makes bold claim in new Piers Morgan interview
Cristiano Ronaldo has boldly claimed that he would have scored the same number of goals in the Premier League last season as he did in the Saudi Pro League with Al-Nassr. The Portuguese superstar believes he still has what it takes to lead the attack of a top English side, despite being 40 years old.
Speaking to Piers Morgan, Ronaldo emphasized that he has been proving year after year that he can consistently score goals. The former Manchester United forward insisted that his impressive numbers are not merely a product of playing in the Saudi Pro League. He added that if he had top players supporting him on the pitch in the Premier League, he would have managed the same goal tally.
He said:
“Ah! Excuse. Yeah, excuses. It’s the most simple way. For everything, excuses, excuses, excuses. Year by year, year by year, I score more. Even in a bad year, I scored 25 goals. If I played the Premier League, now in a top team, I will score the same! If I had a good team, at 40 years old, I will score the same. I don’t need to speak because they can say whatever they want, but the numbers, they don’t lie.”
Ronaldo also addressed critics who downplay his achievements in the Saudi Pro League.
“They can’t say Saudi league. They have never been here, they never play here. They don’t know what [it is like] to run in 40 degrees [temperature]. They don’t know. And I still continue and I repeat the Saudi League, the Saudi league, it’s much, much better than Portuguese League, of course. French league is only PSG. Premier League is good, of course, is the number one.”
Last season, Cristiano Ronaldo scored 25 goals in the Saudi Pro League, in addition to a further 10 goals in the AFC Champions League and the Saudi Super Cup.
### Cristiano Ronaldo Wants More Respect for the Saudi Pro League
Ronaldo also expressed frustration about the Saudi Pro League goals being downplayed by France Football in their Ballon d’Or considerations. He said ignoring these goals is a mistake.
“It’s easier for me to score in Spain than in Saudi Arabia,” he explained.
“And they should count, even they should count, like the goals to be the top scorer, the Golden Ball [Ballon d’Or]. Why? They don’t count Saudi league. Why? Look how many top players we have in a league. Check! Ask the other players if the league is good, don’t ask me because it’s easy to ask me, I’m always saying that ‘Ah, Cristiano saying that because he play in Saudi’. No, no. I play everywhere. Everywhere. For me, it’s more easy to score in Spain than to score in Saudi.”
To put his achievements into perspective, Ronaldo scored 450 goals in 438 matches for Real Madrid. Since joining Al-Nassr in 2022, he has impressively netted 102 goals in 115 matches.
Cristiano Ronaldo continues to defy age and expectations, proving that his goal-scoring prowess remains as potent as ever.

“Got to find that person with the voodoo”: Adam Foote in disbelief as Canucks lose latest forward Brock Boeser due to injury in game vs. Blues
Vancouver Canucks coach Adam Foote expressed disbelief after losing forward Brock Boeser to injury during Thursday’s 4-3 shootout win over the St. Louis Blues.
The Canucks have been plagued by injuries this season, and Boeser was the ninth player to join the team’s long injury list. He sustained a lower-body injury after taking a slapshot to the lower abdomen during Thursday’s game. He is currently considered day-to-day.
In the post-game media interaction, Foote said:
“Yeah, we got to find that person with the voodoo and all, if that’s a thing. I don’t believe in that stuff, but I’m like, ‘What is going on here?’ It’s going to just, if we can handle it and be resilient, stick to what we’re doing, we’ll all grow from it.”
He added,
“And once we get another guy back, another guy back, another guy back, now we’ve got depth. So, I mean, yeah, it’s tough, but I’m just proud of the group. They’re becoming a very good team in there, and that’s huge.”
Foote had no update regarding the extent of Brock Boeser’s injury. Boeser has six points this season through four goals and two assists.
In addition to Boeser, the Canucks are already without several key players including captain Quinn Hughes, Conor Garland, Derek Forbort, Filip Chytil, Victor Mancini, Teddy Blueger, Jonathan Lekkerimaki, and Nils Hoglander.

### Adam Foote Praises Kiefer Sherwood After Hat Trick Performance
Kiefer Sherwood was the standout player for the Canucks in their 4-3 win over the Blues. Sherwood scored a hat trick in the game, helping his team secure the shootout victory.
Foote praised Sherwood’s dedication and mindset, saying,
“He loves the game. What I love about him is, early in the season, he was good, and then got off real quick and his emotions were in play, and our four coaches did a good job just talking to him, going, ‘You have some fun here.’”

“I was getting ston*d” – Celebrity star details his WWE debut alongside Randy Orton; reveals segment didn’t go as rehearsed
WWE has featured a number of celebrities in the squared circle over the past few years. From Bad Bunny to Travis Scott, the company has managed to include some of the biggest names in entertainment time and time again.
Back in November last year, on WWE RAW, music sensation Jelly Roll was featured as a guest on the show. He was involved in a backstage interaction as well as a segment inside the squared circle. Following his segments, Jelly Roll sat at ringside to witness the main event match between Randy Orton and Dominik Mysterio.
During the match, Mysterio—accompanied by JD McDonagh—was trying to leave the arena early when Jelly Roll unexpectedly took McDonagh down and pushed Mysterio towards Randy Orton, who delivered a thunderous RKO.
### What Really Happened Behind the Scenes?
While the segment made headlines worldwide, it wasn’t exactly what the stars had rehearsed. In a recent interview with Chris Van Vliet, Jelly Roll revealed that Randy Orton was originally set to smash Mysterio through an announce table when he pushed him toward “The Viper.”
Jelly Roll shared that the moment felt surreal and “like the coolest thing ever.” He added that he never anticipated this spontaneous action would lead to their match at SummerSlam.
> “I’m sure y’all know this about the Viper already, but none of that happened in rehearsal,” Jelly Roll said.
> “In rehearsal, I was supposed to push Dom into him, and he was supposed to table him, you know, the Randy table drop. So I was gonna push him back, Randy’s gonna be there, and I was gonna push him. Instead, it was like so when Randy does it, walks over to me. I was like, ‘Oh, this is the coolest thing ever, dude.’ And it was cool because obviously I was getting stoned in the back, so that’s what he’s alluding to.”
He further added:
> “I smelled like a big reefer, but he’s just so awesome. And then I was in the back that night doing my interview, I think maybe with Jackie, and he stopped and crashed my interview and put his arm around me and was like, ‘Man, I’m proud of you, man.’ A lot of the celebrities have come here, gave the big rub on camera right then too. And I would have never guessed that that was going to us being able to wrestle together.”
### When Will Jelly Roll Appear in WWE Again?
Since his massive WWE debut match alongside Randy Orton against Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre at SummerSlam, Jelly Roll has not been seen on WWE television. The music sensation has not been advertised for any upcoming WWE shows, and his return date to the company remains unknown.
Fans will have to wait and see what WWE has in store for Jelly Roll’s next appearance in the squared circle.
