News about Chris Waddle

OLIVER HOLT: Any list - your list as well as mine - can be dominated by those who are not on it. However, it should really be about the participants who are on it. This list is meant to be a salute to them and of football's rich, rich past, as well as what the game means to all of us and what players represent and why they capture something in us. You'll disagree with some of the names on the list, and you'll be correct. Another man's garbage is another man's treasure. The depth of our passion for the game and the ferocity of our opinions about the players are only two of the factors that make football so beautiful.

Andreas Brehme's death at the age of 63 has sadly saddened the football world. West Germany defeated Argentina 2-1 to win the World Cup in 1990, with Brehme scoring the decisive late penalty. His death on Monday night – from a cardiac arrest – came just a few weeks after Franz Beckenbauer, the team's coach, died at the age of 78. In the semi-finals, West Germany defeated England on penalties, with Stuart Pearce and Chris Waddle both missing their spot-kicks. But what became of the Italia '90 World Cup winners?

On Mail Sport's podcast It's All Kicking Off, Chris Sutton has selected his top five British footballers to play abroad. With the likes of Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham flying the flag in both Bundesliga and LaLiga respectively, there's a lot of debate to be had over the best exports from these shores. Two Welshmen appear in Sutton, and his former colleague Paul Lambert makes the cut for his Borussia Dortmund heroics.

Lothar Matthaus is elated about an Englishman in other countries. Harry Kane has just scored a hat-trick in Der Klassiker, and Matthaus can barely contain himself. 'Oh la la!I was watching the game yesterday,' he beams, before roaring: 'Great Harry! Fantastic Harry.' When a Bayern Munich behemoth like Matthaus - 410 appearances, seven Bundesliga titles - gets excited, something new is going on. 'Beautiful transfer! Not only for Bayern Munich, but also for Germany, where the 62-year-old hasn't lost none of his dynamism and zeal for the beautiful game.

The chain was established in Kansas, USA, in 1958, and the first UK outlet opened in Islington, north London, in 1972. Since then, Pizza Hut has grown in fame and at its peak, employing 10,000 workers in more than 260 restaurants around the country, with three million visitors a month.

An irate Tottenham Hotspur fan decided enough was enough when he stormed out of his team's game after just 20 minutes. Fans of Spurs were gathered at St James' Park after their hopeless side lost five early goals to Newcastle United. The enraged fan voted with his feet, as usual football supporters have done or been encouraged to do so.

You've got to ask Tottenham about the pride, the job rate, and the honesty. I've been so dissatisfied. The passengers who made the trip rightly booed. These players should compensate the fans. That was one of the worst performances I have ever seen. You're talking about a top-five football team. It's traumatic. They don't buy players cheap, check out their stadium and their facilities. And if you look at this squad, they're just going through the motions from the game.

Manchester City has defeated Bayern Munich in the Champions League quarter-finals on Tuesday evening, Erling Haaland has revealed a bold new haircut. The Norwegian star has been in fine form this season, scoring his 30th Premier League goal against Southampton, but it is his off-the-field call that has everyone talking.

CRAIG'S HILLSBOROUGH — Yes, as Owls manager Darren Moore said on Wednesday that Newcastle's weakened squad-sheet had boosted the team, but that the team also had a £60 million striker, £40 million midfielder, and a £32 million defender. That was before a £100 million worth of talent came from the bench. So, although Goliath dominated, Newcastle had 22 shots and 75% possession, but they didn't have a clumsy giant in front of goal.

The FA Cup's schedule this weekend will mark a welcome change from the frantic return to domestic action following the World Cup break. It would allow a variety of Premier League clubs to switch their starting lineups and give younger players a chance to shine in the first team. With that in mind, there may be some potential slip-ups in this round of the tournament, and Sportsmail identifies the chances of a surprise in each of the games.

For millennial football fans, seeing famous football stars flooded their social media pages with festive photos has been a modern trend. However, footballers didn't have the same luxurious store three decades ago, and they had to find other ways to broadcast their Christmas cheer. Fortunately, there was always a willing photographer on hand to capture these moments, but unfortunately looking back at these images, which were often used in magazines and advertisements, haven't necessarily been appropriate for the familiar faces on display. The Christmas clock is winding down, and we take a look at some of Christmas pictures from the past.

BY CRAIG HOPE: Lothar Matthaus may have excelled on his friendship with Diego Maradona on two occasions. In a Munich restaurant, the first time involved a bag bursting with Deutsche marks beneath a table.
