News about Glenn Hoddle

Tom Lockyer has hailed the nation's response to the 'Every Minute Matters' campaign, which seeks to educate people on potentially life-saving CPR training.  Luton Town captain Lockyer suffered a cardiac arrest back in December during a game, having already suffered an atrial flutter in the Championship play-off final the summer before.  The Wales international's life was saved by the use of CPR and defibrillation in December, and he has since been fitted with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator device following five days in hospital. 

Legendary football trio Graeme Souness, David Ginola and Glenn Hoddle have teamed up alongside Luton Town captain Tom Lockyer in a bid to get the nation to learn CPR (Cardiopulmonary resuscitation). The British Heart Foundation and Sky Bet-led campaign, named 'Every Minute Matters', was unveiled at Wembley Stadium and aims to recruit 270,000 people - the equivalent of three Wembley's - to learn CPR over the next 12 months. And Sky Bet is pledging to donate up to £3million to support the vital work of Britain's biggest heart charity, starting with £10,000 for every goal scored during normal and extra-time during the play-offs throughout the Football league this month.

KIERAN GILL AT WEMBLEY: It was 1996, the last time Chelsea had gone two seasons without a trophy or finishing at least fourth.  Glenn Hoddle departed at the end of that campaign, his club desperately disappointed when they failed to persuade him to stay after a sneaky approach by England. Mauricio Pochettino faces a fight to win the same support at the end of the season when it is understood a review will take place, yet when his owners are picking over the carcass of this campaign, this FA Cup exit to Manchester City should not be held against the manager.

CHRIS SUTTON: Since Ben White is refusing to represent England due to a grudge, he will regret it at the end of his career. I'd been captained for England against Cameroon in November 1997. Then Glenn Hoddle told me that I wasn't going to be called up for the game against Chile in February 1998.

Jack Stephenson was sure he was set up. The Brighton fan had seen all the horror stories about Rome. Of the infamous knife-wielding Ultras, of thugs in balaclavas and crash helmets, as well as the gruesome, long list of banned British football supporters who have ended up in hospital with stitches in their backsides after trademark slash attacks. They say, 'La puncicata'. 'I had my story planned in case I was asked,' he tells Mail Sport. 'I'm a big ginger bloke,' so I was just going to say I was here to watch Scotland play rugby, not the football.'

As slamming the former Manchester United man on the back of his red card against Argentina, Hoddle was mentioned in Beckham's documentary 'Beckham' late last year. In the 47th minute of the game, the Three Lions legend struck out at Argentina's Diego Simeone, who by his own admission, went down softly, causing England to play with 10 men for the remainder of the game.

Although nearly all mothers will be the first to tell you how proud they are of their sons, only a select few will claim to have raised a hero professional athlete - or in Judy Murray's case, two. They have played a vital part in promoting the success of an even smaller number of them. This can mean either behind the scenes in the boardroom, such as Adrian Rabiot and Kylian Mbappe's manager mothers, or providing vital emotional assistance.

Exclusive BY ADAM SHERGOLD: Glenn Hoddle has suggested that Liverpool hold the door open for a resurgent Jurgen Klopp to return from a year's absence. On Friday, the German coach, 56, shocked football by announcing that he will step down as Reds boss at the end of the season because he is 'running out of electricity.' During a prolific nine years at Anfield, Klopp has won the Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup, and Carabao Cup.

Exclusive BY ADAM SHERGOLD: Marcus Rashford has been advised by Glenn Hoddle not to regret his "12-hour tequila bender" in Belfast and keep his career from 'imploding' by reconnecting with his 'pure' love of football. After spending two nights out in the Northern Irish city, the Manchester United star got into trouble last Friday by missing training. Rashford, 26, told United that he was sick, but his coworkers were furious after it emerged that he partied in a nightclub until 2 a.m.

The change from playing to punditry is a well-trodden route in football, and Gavin Peacock seemed to be on target to be a natural performer when he took off his boots in 2002. The versatile footballer spent 18 years at the top of the game, most notably assisting Newcastle in promotion to the Premier League in 1993 and then playing for Chelsea for three years after being signed by Glenn Hoddle. Following his retirement, Peacock was spotted on the BBC's Match of the Day, Football Focus, and Score, enthralling viewers with his knowledge of the sport.

OLIVER HOLT AT THE TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR STADIUM: They were out one by one at halftime, and not by one. They were called Boys of 81 on the big screen. Following the first Wembley replay, first Paul Miller, Graham Roberts, and then arm-arm, Glenn Hoddle and Osvaldo Ardiles were honoured members of the Spurs team that defeated Manchester City in the 100th FA Cup Final. They had hoped that a different kind of history would help them get to the FA Cup fourth round match. For all their recent domination of the English game, City had never lost at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. They had never won a single point. And they had never scored a single point.

IMPORTANT INTERVIEW BY MATT BARLOW: Tommy Hutchison played more than 1,100 senior games with Alloa Athletic to the Welsh Valleys with Merthyr Tydfil at the age of 46. He never had to be concerned about the danger when he left his decorating career to work as a Blackpool consultant, and he would not be allowed to paint or decorate again in Fifeshire unless he departed without giving a month's notice. Rather, he embarked on a memorable career, including eight years at Coventry City, where they dubbed him 'Mr Magic' and a World Cup with Scotland.

After Manchester City conceded two early goals in their Champions League match against RB Leipzig, Glenn Hoddle slammed Manuel Akanji for "switching off completely." In the first 35 minutes of the match, Lois Openda stunned Cityzens by scoring twice, with both goals coming from defensive mistakes. He made his first appearance in the 13th minute, capitalizing on a long ball form goalkeeper Janis Blaswich, before rushing through the Man City defense to smash the ball past Stefan Ortega.

BY MATT HUGHES: The FA is being sued by Gareth Southgate's agent for millions of pounds as a result of a long-running controversy involving senior England actors' commercial relationships. Terry Byrne owes money to Southgate, Joe Cole, and Glenn Hoddle after his company 10Ten earned fees for their commercial activities to help finance a £25 million property deal without their permission, according to Mail Sport on Monday. Mail Sport has learned that Byrne is embroiled in a court dispute with Southgate's employees, which could also cause anxiety for the England manager.

XCLUSIVE MATT HUGHES – Gareth Southgate (right) is one of many former England players owes money to agent Terry Byrne (right), who invested the manager's money without his knowledge as part of a disastrous £25 million property deal. Byrne used money belonging to Joe Cole and Glenn Hoddle without telling them, as well as fees owed to Michelin-star chefs represented by his company 10Ten Talent (whose website is located on the home page of, center). The purchase of massive new offices in central London last year has placed several of Byrne's companies in danger of bankruptcy due to significant debts to customers, including England boss Southgate, Cole and Hoddle, who owes a considerable sum.

After Terry Venables' death at the age of 80 after a long illness, Gareth Southgate has paid tribute to him. Venables coached England between 1994 and 1996, directing the Three Lions' thrilling run to Euro 96 on home turf. Southgate, the current England boss, earned the first of his 57 England caps under Venables in 1995 and spent nine times for England under the former Tottenham boss before being replaced by Glenn Hoddle.

Glenn Hoddle says he has no problem with the negative portrayal of him in David Beckham's Netflix documentary. One episode of the series deals with Beckham's red card against Argentina at the 1998 World Cup, as well as Hoddle's reportedly less-than-supportive reaction to it. It delves into Hoddle's argument that Beckham, then a Manchester United player, was 'not focused' ahead of the tournament in France, which resulted in him being barred from England's opener against Tunisia.

Despite being restricted to nine players against Chelsea, Glenn Hoddle has questioned Ange Postecoglou's uncompromising tactics. Spurs were limited to nine men after red cards for Cristian Romero and Destiny Udogie against London rivals Chelsea, with returning Mauricio Pochettino expected to receive a trophy over his old club.

David, 48, and Victoria, 49, both give an intimate glimpse into their marriage and early dating, their family life, and David's football career, which premiered on October 4, as well as charting David's footballing career. When Beckham revealed his mental stability after he was named as "public enemy number one" when he was given a red card against Argentina in the 1998 World Cup, one of the show's most entertaining segments comes when he confesses to his mental health problems. Victoria Beckham shared how disgusted she was with then England boss Glen Hoddle, who 'failed to defend' a 23-year-old Beckham, debating her husband's trials. Fisher Stevens, a success actor and producer, reminisces on how his Netflix team tried to reach Hoddle'many times.'

Victoria Beckham has blasted former England manager Glenn Hoddle for failing to shield her husband David after his blistering red card at the 1998 World Cup. Hoddle was "not a man" after England's penalty-shootout loss to Argentina, according to Victoria, who appeared to blame the midfielder for his team's World Cup departure. After being ordered to play with ten men for the remainder of the last-16 clash, the Three Lions icon struck out at Argentina's Diego Simeone, who by his own admission collapsed softly in the 47th minute.

Following his decision to pull out of the reserve team, Mail Sport columnist Sutton's international playing days were postponed for only 11 minutes in 1998. Sutton pulled out of the match against Chile B, provoking boss Glenn Hoddle after a tense phone call, furious that he was overlooked for the senior team. However, due to the fact of his discussion with Hoddle, which Sutton now admits to questioning his authority, the striker was never chosen again. Sutton revealed that the way in which he dealt with the disaster was a sore regret on Mail Sport's latest episode, 'It's All Kicking Off'.

JULIE BINDEL: You'd never know that for almost half of my life, I've had a strange obsession with football. On the other hand, I couldn't abide it. On the other hand, I resent it greatly. I started looting in the 1970s in a working-class household in the North East, where football was still a distinctly male sport. Sunderland and Newcastle, the Mackems, and the Magpies were the local minnows in Darlington, where we lived. My family was divided by fighting loyalties, which resulted in endless arguments. There were arguments around the dinner table, followed by screaming matches in front of the TV highlights, with the sound on full throttle. As the show progressed, my dad and grandad got more involved, and our windows were made to shudder, as the endless terrace chants screamed. Match Of The Day was the most miserable hour of my week. There'd be endless discussion of pivotal events on the next day - what the ref missed and why that was never a penalty. I didn't know how to play and I certainly didn't know the attraction.

When selecting the best manager he ever played for, former England defender Wayne Bridge preferring Glenn Hoddle over Jose Mourinho. Since being accepted in Southampton's academy, Bridge made more than 300 Premier League appearances in his 16-year career. He went on to have the most fruitful stretch of his career at Stamford Bridge, winning four major titles, including the Premier League under Mourinho.

Eddie Howe must be one of the few people who doesn't want to watch Joe Willock's assist for Alexander Isak during the 6-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur. 'I almost don't want to see it again, because I don't want to disturb my perception of what it was like live,' the Newcastle chief said.' While you are appreciating the sentiment, it is still worth considering. On closer inspection, Mail Sport likened it to a pass from Glenn Hoddle, but Luka Modric, another former Spurs player, is more Luka Modric. On a curved course, Bent has the ball outside Willock's right boot, and Isak does not have to break stride before collecting and finishing past Hugo Lloris.
