Tribe manages just 3 hits in loss There has been a lot of hype around Twins right-handed starter Jose Berrios, and the 22-year-old showed why he was one of the club's most coveted prospects in his season debut on Saturday at Progressive Field. Berrios pitched a career-high 7 2/3 stellar innings and retired 13 batters in a row between the third and the seventh to lead the Twins to a 4-1 win over the Indians. It was the fourth win in a row for the Twins. Berrios was called up from Triple-A Rochester after the Twins defeated the Indians, 1-0, on Friday behind a strong outing from Ervin Santana. Berrios followed up Santana's start with a strong performance of his own, allowing only one run on two hits with four strikeouts to pick up the win. Jose Berrios strikes out four in 7 2/3 innings of work and allows one run on two hits and one walk in his 2017 debut against the Indians "[It was impressive] for him to come up and just kind of blend right in and give us the outing he did," Twins manager Paul Moitor said. "He attacked. I thought he used his offspeed pitches efficiently, although he threw a lot of fastballs. He had a good fastball today. He limited the damage, and we were able to capitalize on the few opportunities we had to score enough runs to win." The only run the right-hander allowed came in the third, when Indians first baseman Carlos Santana crossed home on a wild pitch. Relievers Taylor Rogers and Brandon Kintzler recorded the final four outs of the game, and Kintzler picked up his 10th save. Brandon Kintzler earns the save and puts the finishing touches on a 4-1 win for the Roberto Perez jerseys Twins as he gets Jason Kipnis to fly out in the 9th "We're certainly not doing what we want to do," said Indians manager Terry Francona, referring to his offense. "But, pretty consistently all day, [Berrios] got past our barrel. Not necessarily striking out, but just a lot of balls in the air, pop-ups. A couple balls we did hit good. We better not hit it to Corey Kluber Jerseys center field. That kid [center fielder Byron Buxton] is impressive." The Twins provided Berrios with plenty of run support, as they scored three in the fourth inning off Indians starter Mike Clevinger, capped off by an RBI single from Jorge Polanco. Max Kepler added a solo homer in the sixth off Indians reliever Dan Otero. Jorge Polanco extends the Twins' lead to 3-1 in the 4th as he drops a soft liner into left field that brings in Joe Mauer In his second start of the season, Clevinger lasted only 4 1/3 innings and allowed three runs on three hits with five strikeouts. The right-hander issued five walks and threw two wild pitches. Twins score three in fourth: After Clevinger walked Robbie Grossman and Miguel Sano to start the fourth inning, Joe Mauer laid down a bunt. Clevinger was the first to the ball, but he made a wild throw to first which allowed Grossman to score and Sano to advance to third. Kennys Vargas drove in Sano with an RBI ground out to give the Twins the lead, and Polanco drove in Mauer with an RBI single to left to make it Mike Napoli Jerseys 3-1. Kennys Vargas grounds out to Francisco Lindor at short, but Miguel Sano comes home to give the Twins a 2-1 lead in the top of the 4th I want to buy Cleveland Indians Jerseys one?

Don’t sleep on this Buccaneers defensive line. It has the potential to be scary good.

The Buccaneers went out over the off-season <a href="http://www.officialbearsshops.com/shop-by-players-richard-dent-jersey-c-2_54.html">http://www.officialbearsshops.com/shop-by-players-richard-dent-jersey-c-2_54.html</a> with one goal in mind, to add a plethora of weapons for franchise quarterback Jameis Winston to work with. All of the acquisitions on the offensive side of the ball made everyone forget how good this defensive front can be. Led by Gerald McCoy for the past eight seasons, he has finally gotten some help from the draft and free agency in recent years. Wiliam Gholston, Clinton McDonald, Robert Ayers Jr., Noah Spence, and Chris Baker make up the reinforcements that the Bucs have acquired over the last few seasons to help their big man down in the trenches.

The third pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, McCoy has lived up to the hype by becoming one of the best defensive tackles in all of football. He has now produced four straight years of seven or more sacks, an impressive feat for a player who doesn’t line up on the edge. McCoy’s huge 6’4″, 300 pound frame has made him into an exceptional run stopper as well. Even with all the success he has enjoyed in the league, McCoy still sees more room for improvement.

Being one of the team leaders for the past eight seasons has led to these comments out of McCoy over the off-season (via Bucs Nation):

It’s pretty evident that McCoy is coming into this season with a hungry mindset of finally leading this team into the postseason. He wants <a href="http://www.officialbengalssales.com/shop-by-players-giovani-bernard-jersey-c-1_23.html">http://www.officialbengalssales.com/shop-by-players-giovani-bernard-jersey-c-1_23.html</a> to be a finisher late in games to close them out, making the crucial play when it matters most. That’s a good sign to all Tampa Bay fans that their team leader seems like he’s a man on a mission, to say the least. To help him out in their 3-4 scheme the Bucs signed another mammoth to line up alongside him on the line. His name is Chris Baker.

Playing for the Washington Redskins the last six seasons, Baker has established himself as a rock solid player. All 6’2″, 320 pounds of him is going to fit right in next to McCoy, another big body who can rush the quarterback from the inside. He has accumulated a combined 9.5 sacks over his last two breakout campaigns. Having two men of that size who can clog the middle and provide pressure is something that not a lot of teams around the league have.

Their third defensive tackle that will rotate in and out between them, Clinton McDonald, is another huge body who can give the other two rest. He hasn’t played as much in recent years but was a key rotation piece for the 2013 Super Bowl winning Seattle Seahawks. He had 5.5 sacks that year and also had five sacks the next year, his first with Tampa Bay. He can be relied upon when needed to give quality snaps behind McCoy and Baker.

On the edge, the Bucs have one of the <a href="http://www.officialbengalsshop.com/shop-by-players-william-perry-jersey-c-2_123.html">William Perry Womens Jersey</a> more promising young pass rushers in Noah Spence. Not drafted until the second round last year because of his off the field distractions in college, Spence displayed some serous potential during his rookie season. He finished the year with 5.5 sacks while playing most of the year with a torn labrum in his shoulder. All the veterans on the team rave about Spence’s work ethic, a good trait that can push his sack total to double digits in the near future. Hopefully near future means this year.

Speaking of the veterans, Robert Ayers Jr. provides the most experience out of them all. One of the Bucs big free agent signings last off-season, the nine-year veteran had 6.5 sacks while being a great presence in the locker room to the younger players. Ayers clearly still has a lot left in the tank and being able to be in a rotation with the others will only help him stay more fresh. After one year, this looks like a good free agent signing with hopefully more to come.

The Bucs seem to think they have a hidden gem on the defensive line and he goes by the name of Jacquies Smith. During his first two years in the league, Smith had a 6.5 and 7 sack season before going down with a season ending injury in last years season opener Most people, including Bucs fans, forget how dynamic this guy was to open up his career. A return to form by him can turn the Bucs defensive front from a good unit to top three material with ease.

Last but not least, the Bucs decided to not let go of homegrown talent William Gholston by re-signing him to a five-year, $27.5 million contract. Gholston is not known as a great edge rusher judging by his ten career sacks over his four years in the league. However, he is one of the most fundamentally sound ends in the league <a href="http://www.officialnflfalconsshop.com/shop-by-players-vic-beasley-jr-jersey-c-9_110.html">Vic Beasley Jr Womens Jersey</a> and defends the run better than most. Gholston does display all the tools necessary to take that extra step and the Bucs believe in him to do so.

Mark Sampson says he believes “the most together team will be the last to go home” as England Women begin a month?long training camp before the European Championship this summer. With hopes high after England’s third-place finish at the 2015 World Cup in Canada, Sampson says players and staff are focused on being “the best on the planet” and have not discussed any outcome other than winning the trophy. Women’s Euro 2017: Panini launch sticker collection for tournament Read more Speaking before preparations that include friendlies, the first of which is on Saturday away against Switzerland, and a warm-weather training camp in Spain, Sampson said: “I think that the key quality in this Luis Sardinas Authentic Jersey tournament will be togetherness. The most together team will definitely be the team that is last to go home. “We’ll be working hard on the training pitch to make sure we’re fit, to make sure we understand what we’re trying to do and to make sure that whatever the opponent throws at us we’ve got the relevant weapons to find a way to win. Refusing to go home, find a way to win, and staying together. “I believe this team has the ability to be the best in the world, 100%. There’s been nothing on my mind since the final whistle of the [World Cup] semi-final than how we’re going to win this event. I’ve never once discussed with the players about getting through the group, of getting to this stage or whatever. It’s about winning. Euro 2017: England squad guide for the Netherlands finals Read more “That’s no guarantee we’ll win. – of course it’s not. We might lose our first two and be eliminated. But our focus is completely on doing everything we can to give us the best possible chance to win this event.” Sampson earned criticism from inside the women’s game after he named his 23-strong squad three months before the tournament and before the Spring Series, the climactic event in a reshaped Women’s Super League. Yet the England manager defended his decision and said the announcement was a necessary part of the squad’s preparation. “I’ve got to give huge credit to the players,” he said. “They were all made aware of the announcement and their confirmed places in the squad early and I think the work they have put in has been incredibly diligent and professional. I’ve been really impressed with their level of performance [in the Spring Series] but I’ve also been impressed by their work away from the field. This was always the intention, to do the work behind the scenes that makes the big difference when you’re put in front of all the cameras. “We said we need to rip into each other and have a right good go at this Spring Series. We said we had to compete, to tackle, to fight, to push each other. I think we arrive now with the right balance between toughness and freshness.” Uefa launches drive to boost girls’ football participation in Europe Read more England are planning to stay to the end of a tournament being hosted by the Netherlands and which begins on 16 July. “We’re looking at it that we’re away from 5 June to 7 August which seems a really long time,” Sampson said. “So we try to have a good balance as to when we switch on. When we do switch on with this team we demand the highest of standards, work ethic, competitiveness, learning – all the key qualities to be the best on the planet. But when we switch off we want to have fun, we want to enjoy ourselves and we’ve got a great balance, I think. “I’m excited by the programme we’ve got, but like anything it’s great to see it on paper, but it’s the people that make it come alive. That’s the staff, that’s the players, that have to make it come alive and make it the best possible preparation camp they’ve ever hadThe South Yorkshire police and crime commissioner (PCC), Alan Billings, acted unlawfully and irrationally when he sacked the force’s chief constable, David Crompton, a day after last year’s verdicts in the Hillsborough inquests, the high court has ruled. Lawyers for Crompton claimed there was no fair or reasonable basis for forcing him out of office. Crompton attacked the decision taken by Billings following the inquest findings into the deaths at the Hillsborough stadium disaster 27 years before. Lady Justice Sharp and Mr Justice Garnham, sitting in London, ruled in Crompton’s favour on Friday. Hillsborough disaster: deadly mistakes and lies that lasted decades Read more Billings’s decision to sack Crompton was not based on the case South Yorkshire police presented at the inquests, but on a press statement issued the following day, 27 April 2016. Garnham said the decision was http://www.authenticsandiegopadres.com/Johnny-Manziel-Jersey irrational and “wholly disproportionate”. In the judgment, Billings’s conduct at the time – refusing to consider and advise on the press statement when Crompton consulted him about it following criticism of the police’s case by bereaved families and politicians – was described as “surprising in the extreme”, “a serious error” and “wholly unreasonable”. Billings was also found to have acted irrationally and unreasonably in failing to take account of an opinion last June from the HM chief inspector of constabulary, Sir Tom Winsor, who said the sacking of Crompton was “conspicuously unfair, disproportionate and so unreasonable that I cannot understand how the PCC has reached this view”. Billings’s suspension and then sacking of Crompton followed severe criticism by families of the case made by South Yorkshire police in the two-year-long new inquests into the 1989 disaster, in which 96 people died at the FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest. Advertisement Families and Labour politicians, including the then shadow home secretary Andy Burnham, accused Crompton of seeking to advance original 1989 smears against Liverpool supporters and blame them for the disaster, rather than stand by previous admissions of police fault. The inquests coroner, Sir John Goldring, in October 2014 rejected an application by the families for the force’s admissions and apologies to be put before the jury. At the conclusion of the inquests, the jury determined that the 96 people were unlawfully killed due to gross negligence manslaughter by the police officer in command at the match, Ch Supt David Duckenfield, and that no behaviour of football supporters contributed to the disaster. After the verdicts, Crompton issued a statement in which he fully accepted the findings of the jury and apologised for the police failures. In response to the criticism which followed the verdicts, he issued a second statement on 27 April, which explained that while South Yorkshire police accepted their culpability for the disaster, their failures had to be put in the context of “other contributory factors”. Although in media interviews Billings had suggested he sacked Crompton for the Adidas Carl Soderberg Youth Jersey conduct of the inquests, in fact it was for the press statement, arguing it implied the force was still failing to take responsibility. The legal process since has revealed that Crompton consulted Billings about the statement before he issued it, but Billings refused to look at it, saying he did not want any statement to be made at all. Garnham described that approach as “surprising in the extreme” and “a serious error”, saying Billings should have worked collaboratively with Crompton on the response. Crompton, who argued he conducted the police case at the inquests responsibly and responded to the verdicts reasonably, strongly criticised Billings after winning the judicial review. “Dr Billings has spent a huge amount of public money trying to defend actions which he was advised in the strongest terms not to pursue by Her Majesty’s chief inspector of constabulary,” Crompton said. “This money would have been better spent on operational policing … The judgment, which is damning, speaks for itself.” In a statement, Billings said he was disappointed with the decision and would seek to appeal it, although he might look for an alternative to using further South Yorkshire public money to do so. Crompton was due to http://www.authenticcoloradoavalanche.com/authentic-calvin-pickard-jersey retire anyway in November last year and was not seeking reinstatement. He could now be entitled to financial compensation, but is understood not to have commenced any proceedings yet

Free agency got an unsuspecting visitor on Friday when the Kansas City Chiefs released wide receiver Jeremy Maclin. Just two years into <a href="http://www.authenticpatriotsstore.com/shop-by-players-laremy-tunsil-jersey-c-1_34.html">http://www.authenticpatriotsstore.com/shop-by-players-laremy-tunsil-jersey-c-1_34.html</a> a five-year contract, Maclin wasn't able to contribute enough last season to justify paying him $12 million in 2017. The loss makes Kansas City's receiving unit extremely weak, but will give another team the opportunity for a significant boost. Maclin may have struggled recently, but in a better passing offense he's proven that he can be a valuable No. 1 option.

So now seems like a good time to rank all 32 NFL receiving units, after the release of Maclin and soon-to-be-next Eric Decker by the Jets. At the top is the team most familiar to being at the top, and not far behind is an NFC South team not named the Falcons. At the bottom, a surprising amount of teams that don't seem to have much talent at the receiver despite their seemingly being an abundance of good receivers in this high-volume passing era.

These are the guys who make most of the biggest highlights every week, as well as the ones who will break your heart. (Asterisks denote 2017 NFL Draft picks.)

1. New England Patriots: Brandin Cooks, Julian Edelman, Danny Amendola, Chris Hogan, Andrew Hawkins, Malcolm Mitchell

The Saints unloaded him, but Cooks is still a top-20 player at his position:

Three players have recorded 75 receptions, 1,000 receiving yards and eight touchdowns in each of the past two seasons. Cooks is one. The other two are Odell Beckham Jr. and Antonio Brown. Beckham and Brown made the Pro Bowl in <a href="http://www.billsjerseysale.com/shop-by-players-ronald-darby-jersey-c-1_45.html">http://www.billsjerseysale.com/shop-by-players-ronald-darby-jersey-c-1_45.html</a> both seasons. Cooks made it in neither.

He's small (5-foot-10, 189 pounds), and he played in a high-volume passing offense, but Cooks has made the most of his targets. Over the last two seasons, he ranks 13th in catches, eighth in receiving yards, sixth in touchdowns, and 10th in yards per target. In Football Outsiders' plus-minus for receivers (a statistic breaking down how many passes the average WR would have caught for the same team in the same situations), Cooks ranked seventh. The Patriots added him without losing a receiver of note, including Edelman (1,106 yards in 2016), Hogan (18th in plus-minus), and Mitchell, who had six catches for 70 yards in the Super Bowl. Veterans Amendola and Hawkins provide experienced depth as well. And if you want to get technical, they have another receiver who has been to each of the last six Pro Bowls: Special teams beast Matthew Slater. New England is great at a lot of things right now, and the receiving unit is no exception.

2. Green Bay Packers: Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb, Davante Adams, Jeff Janis, Geronimo Allison, DeAngelo Yancey*, Malachi Dupre*, Trevor Davis

With Nelson healthy, Aaron Rodgers comfortably settled back into being his old self. Nelson caught 97 passes for 1,257 yards and an NFL-high 14 touchdowns after missing all of 2015 with a torn ACL. He was third in DYAR (Defense-adjusted Yards Above Replacement) and 10th in plus-minus. While Cobb continues to have some struggles, he's a great player to have as your number three receiver now that Adams has established himself as one of the league's best number twos (75 catches, 997 yards, 12 touchdowns). We can't say for sure how good the depth is, but Ted Thompson drafted <a href="http://www.cheapdolphinsonline.com/shop-by-players-matt-moore-jersey-c-1_41.html">Matt Moore Kids Jersey</a> two more receivers (Yancey in the fifth, Dupre in the seventh) as he continues his tradition of constantly trying to get better at wideout.

3. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Mike Evans, DeSean Jackson, Chris Godwin*, Adam Humphries, Bernard Reedy, Josh Huff

Evans has gone over 1,000 yards in all three of his seasons, and scored 12 touchdowns for the second time in his career in 2016. He was sixth in DYAR and seems unbeatable at the point of the catch. He might only get better if his targets go down with the addition of Jackson, as there's less pressure on him now to do everything. Jackson is second in the league over the last two seasons in yards per target, and his career average of 17.7 yards per catch is the highest of any active NFL player. They're in the conversation for best 1-2 in football, but Humphries and Godwin have stood out in OTAs per head coach Dirk Koetter:

"The most consistent guys since we've been out here have been Godwin and Adam [Humphries]," Koetter said. "Those two guys have been making plays everyday. Real happy with what Chris is doing, but he could play in(side) or out(side), either one."

4. Pittsburgh Steelers: Antonio Brown, Eli Rogers, Martavis Bryant, Darrius Heyward-Bey, JuJu Smith-Schuster*, Sammie Coates, Justin Hunter, Demarcus Ayers

Brown is as good of a receiver as you could hope for, but then GM Kevin Colbert found another gem in Rogers (594 yards as an undrafted rookie in the slot) and bonus: Bryant returns after he was suspended for all of last season. Bryant caught 14 touchdowns over his first 21 games. The Steelers also drafted Smith-Schuster in the second, high praise from a team that hasn't drafted a receiver that early since Limas Sweed in 2008. Brown, Rogers, Bryant, and Smith-Schuster make a solid top four, but the competition behind them is also deep and relatively talented.

5. Miami Dolphins: Jarvis Landry, DeVante Parker, Kenny Stills, Jakeem Grant, Leonte Carroo

Landry is an exceptional player (fourth in receptions since 2015), but Parker could be settling in as the best receiver in Miami. The <a href="http://www.newpatriotssale.com/nfl-new-england-patriots-replica-kyle-van-noy-jersey-53-on-sale.html">Kyle Van Noy Authentic Jersey</a> former 14th overall pick has 1,189 yards and seven touchdowns over his last 21 games, with an excellent 9.22 yards/target. If that wasn't enough, they gave Stills a four-year, $32 million deal to stay in Miami after he had 17.3 yards/catch and nine touchdowns last season.

lmost a week on and England’s players are still piecing together the eccentricity of an end-of-season overnight stay on Woodbury Common mucking in with the Royal Marines. Harry Kane thrilled at the novelty of “putting up my own tent and sleeping in a sleeping bag”. Kieran Trippier, who can hardly have anticipated enduring the “sheep dip” or a four-mile early morning hike with 21kg on his back through a Devonian wilderness on his first call-up, admitted an initial sense of shock gave way to enjoyment. All spoke of admiration for their hosts and praised Gareth Southgate Authentic Brian Poole Womens Jersey for thinking outside the box when it came to team bonding. Tactical manoeuvre: the England squad train with the Royal Marines – in pictures View gallery Yet it took the manager’s right-hand man to explain the true merit of a trip to the south-west which, like so much of the national team’s attempt at reinvention, was in effect born of memories of the feeble and high-profile capitulation to Iceland in Nice last summer. “It would be easy to assume: marines, army, run until you are sick, but that was actually the opposite of what it was all about,” said Steve Holland. “Gareth has identified issues we need to address and had come up with different ways to go through the process. Take leadership. There were various different exercises that weren’t physically challenging but did demand some to step forward, organise others and take responsibility. To lead. “The guys were having to handle situations where there was pressure. They were out of their comfort zones, and they didn’t feel good about what they were being asked to do, even with limited physical risk. Standing knee high in water, having to pass through a tunnel full of water, not being able to see while in the tube before you reached the marine at the other end … personally, I didn’t fancy that for a second, but I pushed myself through, as did everybody. Now relate that back into football. There are moments on the pitch – and the Iceland game is everyone’s point of reference – where you have to react, when you’re one up and everything looks fine, then suddenly ‘bang, bang’, it’s 1-2. The feedback Gareth’s had has been that, in some cases, the team’s ‘identity’ has been lacking Steve Holland “Maybe you were in the stadium, or watching it on holiday like me, looking round at the players thinking: ‘Bloody hell, they’ve gone. Where are the leaders? Where is the leadership?’ That is a pressure moment, so who is stepping forward? It looked to me like there was nobody. Does http://www.atlantafalconsauthorizedstore.com/brooks-reed-jersey-elite what we did at the weekend solve that? Not in one hit, no. But having identified it, it is part of a process that hopefully, in the short term but also in the long term, will create a different mindset within the group that can help us. It is as simple as that.” The exorcism of that nightmare on the French Riviera is still continuing. Scotland will test England’s progress in the ferocious din of Hampden Park on Saturday, with the group leaders charged with imposing themselves on their hosts. Coping with that level of expectation is part of the process. Roy Hodgson’s side were supposed to ease beyond Iceland, after all, and were ahead early on. Southgate and his staff have recognised that this young group’s potential will not be realised until hurdles such as these are vaulted with ease. “There is potential, yes, but there is also clearly some work to be done to get this group to where their maximum is,” said Holland. “If we can hit that then this team has a chance to win [tournaments]. I have no doubt, this team has a chance to win.

“Since coming in, Gareth has been very interactive in the way he has dealt with the players and what happened last summer: asking them what they think, not necessarily telling them what he thinks. It has been driven really by an ownership from the players. What did you recognise? What was right? What was wrong? How is it going to be different next time? What can we do to make that process different? The feedback Gareth’s had from players of the past and the present has been that, in some cases, the team’s identity has been lacking, whether that is Courtney Upshaw Womens Jersey tactical or philosophical. They want to get that back.” England Facebook Twitter Pinterest The England team learn how to cook like a Royal Marine out in the field. Photograph: Royal Navy/PA The aim is to give the group some tactical flexibility, allowing them to switch from four at the back to three if required, as they have demonstrated under Southgate. Likewise, they need to mix between pressing high up the pitch when out of possession, or being able to sit deeper and look to counterattack. “And what are we doing with the ball?” said the assistant manager. “Are we obsessed with playing from goalkeeper to halfway line, or is that not so important? How are we going to get from the halfway line to make chances? Everybody has to be very clear about their roles and responsibilities. There is room for adaptation there, positionally, but I think that is the only way.” Advertisement All of which suggests a settled group will use international breaks, including the current two-game period, to familiarise themselves with Southgate’s demands and ensure that, come Russia next summer, England’s thinking is anything but muddled. Holland’s role is now full-time, his eight-year spell with Chelsea curtailed as a Premier League champion, with any fears rival elite clubs, Tottenham Hotspur among them, might have had Bryan Bulaga Womens Jersey over him gleaning inside information on players while on international duty presumably now allayed. “The job offered to me was not a ‘split duty’ job,” he said. “It was ‘come full-time or don’t come at all’, and I understand totally what that is. That is correct. I can see why people might have thought there were issues. “I had the best eight years of my life at Chelsea, incredible experiences winning the Champions League and Premier League, so I am grateful to them. But it was not a wrench joining Gareth here. I’m 46 and I’ve never seen England in a final. My eldest son is 18 and he’s never seen England in a semi-final. When you can try and affect that, working with an England team that delivered success, that opportunity was impossible to reject

“I was in demand,” remembered Phil Babb. “I was on holiday and every other day I was reading the papers and I was going here, there and everywhere.” Back in 1994, the player who was once rejected by his local club Millwall appeared to have the world at his feet. Fresh from his exploits for Republic of Ireland at the World Cup in the United States, Babb joined Liverpool on 1 http://www.sandiegochargersauthorizedstore.com/dan-feeney-jersey-elite September for ￡3.6m – a then British record fee for a defender. The very next day he was joined at Anfield by Wimbledon’s John Scales for ￡3.5m as Roy Evans set about attempting to transform the fortunes of a team who had conceded 55 goals in finishing eighth the previous season. Liverpool drop interest in Virgil van Dijk after Southampton complaint Read more More than two decades have passed since then but, once more, Liverpool find themselves on the lookout for premium defensive reinforcements following a campaign that saw them concede more goals than any of the other top-four sides. But whereas more than a few eyebrows were raised in 1994 when Evans shelled out more than ￡7m for two centre-halves, the changing landscape of the modern transfer market means his successor was contemplating making Virgil van Dijk the most expensive defender in history until they were forced into a dramatic climbdown on Wednesday after being accused by Southampton of tapping him up. Klopp must now find an alternative – and quickly – in an environment that saw Manchester City shell out ￡47.5m on John Stones last August and looks as if it will become more frenzied as the summer goes on. “I don’t think they will ever be the same level as the strikers but the amount clubs are prepared to pay for outstanding defenders has certainly increased,” says Scales, who stayed at Anfield for only two seasons before moving to Tottenham. “The number of clubs at the top of the Premier League that had defensive problems last season shows there is a lack of depth in that area and that helps to drive up the price for those Amos Youth Jersey few that there are. “There’s clearly a lack of top-class defenders who are available and clubs are prepared to pay ever more to get them, so that inflates the price. When you have Sunderland earning ￡100m for finishing bottom of the table then it shows just how much money teams have got to spend now. Add to that all the other teams from Europe’s top leagues and it quickly drives the prices up.” David Luiz remains the costliest defender of all time after his ￡50m move from Chelsea to Paris Saint-Germain in 2014. That ranks only 14th in the overall list but after several higher bids were received by Napoli last summer for the Senegal defender Kalidou Koulibaly, it seems a matter of time before that is broken“It’s a cliche but a player is worth what a club is prepared to pay for him,” says Scales, who works for the English Schools FA and as a pundit for Sky Sports’ coverage of the Eredivisie. “It’s very difficult to weigh up all the factors that must be considered but one of the most important things for a defender is maturity. There are exceptions to the rule but generally you want a defender who has three or four years more experience than a younger player.

Nicolás Otamendi arrived the following summer for ￡34m, meaning that the purchase of Stones took their outlay past the ￡120m mark and Pep Guardiola is thought to be weighing up a new approach for the France defender Aymeric Laporte from Athletic Bilbao, who has a €65m release clause.

According to Scales, however, things are never that simple. “You’ve got to be wary of the Dutch League because the pace of the game isn’t as intense as the top leagues and players need time and space to adapt to moving up a level,” he says. “Having said that, if you’ve got the talent like both of them have then you have a great chance. “The problem is you never know how they are going to do until they are thrown into the next level.
