The NFL playoffs have finally arrived. Wild Card weekend offers a six-pack of games, beginning on Saturday afternoon.
I’ve taken a look at the entire NFL odds slate, and have come up with my four favorite sides, which I’ll break up into a pair of two-leg parlays.
Check out my NFL parlay picks for Wild Card weekend.
Not much has gone the way of Manchester United since they won the Champions League in May. Ronaldo wants to leave, Ramsey snubbed them over Arsenal and the fans want Arshavin at the club. It is a mess for United. But finally some good news seem to make their way to Old Trafford.
Manchester Evening News reckons that the Manchester United board is confident of signing Carlos Tevez on a permanent deal. They say that Manchester United has already paid £10 million to sign him on loan for two years and would have to pay another £10 million to complete his move.
However, the newspaper says that, should Manchester United fail to tie up Tevez by the end of the year, they risk losing him to other clubs.
Tevez has had a brilliant first season with Mancheste…
As a player Luis Aragones earned the nickname Zapatones or big boots and his will certainly be hard to fill when he stands down as Spain coach after his side s exorcising of so many ghosts at Euro 2008.
Like most men within weeks of turning 70 Aragones can be irascible and short-tempered but he has won the hearts of a nation with his team s exploits at these championships.
By masterminding Spain s passage to Thursday s semi-final against Russia he ended the 1964 champions well earned reputation of falling short when it mattered most.
Prior to last Sunday s spot-kick win over their bogey team Italy they had lost on penalties in the quarter-finals of the 1986 World Cup, Euro 96 and the 2002 World Cup.
Since Aragones took over the Spanish reins after Eu…
There will be no more arrivals at Liverpool in this transfer window says manager Jurgen Klopp, unless they experience injuries or sell someone.
The Reds have already added Darwin Nunez, Fabio Carvalho and Calvin Ramsey to the squad since the end of last season, and have been consistently linked with a move for a midfielder in recent weeks.
Borussia Dortmund s Jude Bellingham and Sporting CP s Matheus Nunes have been reported targets, but Klopp has appeared to rule out a move for either, or anyone else, in this window.
Speaking to Sky Sports, the German coach said when asked if there would be further signings: Unless we have injuries or player sales, no, we have our squad [for the coming season].
Hopefully, there won t be any [injuries], so Liverpool …
Former Spain manager Luis Aragonés did not need long to make his first major change at Fenerbahçe, and attracted Liga top scorer Daniel Güiza.
Aragonés urgently needed a replacement for star player Deivid, who seriously injured himself on Sunday.
Güiza scored 27 goals for Real Mallorca in the Primera Division last season, enough to become Spanish Pichichi top scorer.
The player represented the Spanish national team in eight occasions. At Euro 2008, he scored two goals.
Fener and the Spanish forward have come to an agreement for five seasons. Mallorca reportedly receive a transfer fee of seventeen million Euros.

Wilfried Zaha deserves to play for a top club as his agent Federico Pastorello said the Crystal Palace star could leave during the January transfer window.
Zaha wanted to depart before the start of the season but neither a move to Premier League rivals Arsenal nor Everton materialised after Palace held firm.
Refocused and in form, former Manchester United forward Zaha has been linked with Chelsea, who are hoping to overturn their transfer ban.
Pastorello revealed Ivory Coast international Zaha could be involved in a busy January window.
Proud of the fight and hunger the lads had tonight! Great win

I think he really deserves a new challenge and a top club, because he is really a top player, Pastorello, …
Danny Welbeck is leaving Arsenal at the end of the season, Unai Emery has confirmed.
Welbeck has not played for the club since breaking his ankle in a Europa League match against Sporting CP last November.
Although the former England international has returned to training, he will not be given a new contract.
Welbeck s five-year stay at Emirates Stadium will therefore come to an end, with the 28-year-old s next destination unclear.
I spoke with the club about this situation, Emery said after Sunday s 1-1 draw at home to Brighton and Hove Albion.
The decision is he s going to leave.

Market: Javi Martinez to join Liverpool this summer
Odds:
In a bid to boost the Liverpool backline, manager Brendan Rodgers has been eyeing up top defensive talent this summer. Bayern Munich’s Javi Martinez is reportedly on the radar as he can play as a centre-back, central midfielder and a holding role in front of the backline.
However, it’s unknown about his availability as Bayern recently won the league and German cup double with the Spaniard playing his part. But he’s only made 14 league starts for the German giants, with injuries hampering the campaign for him. Bayern paid £35M for his services in 2012, so Liverpool would have to stump up a lot to pique their interest.
Nevertheless, 888 Sport are giving odds o…
Yaya Sanogo hopes his loan move to Crystal Palace can help him show Arsene Wenger his Premier League potential.
The French striker agreed a temporary move to Selhurst Park on Tuesday after struggling to break into the first team at Arsenal, making just three league appearances this season.
Sanogo has yet to score in the Premier League for his parent club in 11 outings since arriving from Auxerre in 2013, and he hopes to change that under the guidance of Alan Pardew.
It feels good to have signed a six-month deal at Crystal Palace, so I am happy, the 21-year-old told the club s official website.
My ambition is to keep on and every day work hard on the training ground, and try to always play.
It would certainly be good to play [more] for my adap…
Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel rebuffed former Premier League defender Gary Neville s criticism of new Blues owner Todd Boehly, labelling the American businessman as super hard-working .
Neville accused Boehly of treating Chelsea as if he wants to play Football Manager , referring to the video game, and acting panicky in the transfer market.
The west London club have missed out on a number of key targets this window, with Jules Kounde from Sevilla and Raphinha from Leeds United reportedly snubbing Chelsea in order to move to Spanish giants Barcelona.
While they have completed the signings of Kalidou Koulibaly from Napoli and England international Raheem Sterling, Neville said about Boehly on The Overlap: He s reacting to clubs and what they are doing. You hear…
New England Revolution and Seattle Sounders remained atop the table in their respective conferences with road wins Saturday.
Thomas McNamara s goal in the 88th minute gave New England a 3-2 victory over New York City FC, just three minutes after Ismael Tajouri-Shradi had equalised for the home side.
Gustavo Bou and Jon Bell also found the net for the Revolution, who are five points clear of Orlando City in the Eastern Conference.
Out west, goals four minutes on either side of half-time from Yeimar Gomez and Raul Ruidiaz lifted unbeaten Seattle to a 2-1 win at LA Galaxy.
FT: With the win, extend their unbeaten streak to 9 matches!
