Graham Alexander lauds Bradford's ‘great start' after cup win at Blackburn
The League One outfit continued their unbeaten start this season and flew out of the traps. Ibou Touray's volley set them on their way before Will Swan rolled a second into an empty net after a blunder from debutant goalkeeper Nick Michalski. Dion De Neve reduced the arrears before the break but Bradford deservedly held on. Alexander praised that fast start, saying: 'It's a great start for us. Two goals in four minutes. I thought we really went at them, showed we were here to compete and to win a game of football. I thought we played really well in the first half. 'Blackburn got a head of steam just before half-time, opened us up a couple of times. They get the goal from the long throw which is disappointing from our perspective, but we didn't let it affect our mindset going into the second half. 'Really tough game, had to work exceptionally hard out of possession but I thought we created really good opportunities to get an extra goal.' It was a miserable night for Valerien Ismael who confirmed captain Lewis Travis wants to leave. He said the poor start killed his team. 'We lost the game in the first five minutes. It's clear, two big mistakes. Not concentrating. After that, we were on the front foot, created a lot of chances. It's disappointing we kill us straightaway in the first five minutes.'

Man Utd star rejects transfer offer and told he will 'never play for a big club'
Jadon Sancho has rejected a transfer approach to leave Manchester United and been told he will 'never play for a big club again'. The former England winger was hoping to earn a permanent move to Chelsea after being sent on loan to Stamford Bright last season. Chelsea had a £25m option to keep Sancho but instead decided to pay a £5m penalty to send him back to Old Trafford. Ruben Amorim has no plans to reintegrate Sancho into a first-team squad which is preparing for Sunday's Premier League opener against Arsenal. Sancho has been in talks with a number of Serie A clubs but received another transfer option this week in the form of Besiktas. In The Mixer: Exclusive analysis, FPL tips and transfer talk sent straight to your inbox every week – sign up, it's an open goal. The Turkish club's president Serdal Adali said: 'Just as much as the community wants him, I want him too. What matters is not only our desire, but also if the player wants to come to Turkey. 'We have a budget, and we will do our best to bring him here. Players like Jadon Sancho usually prefer clubs playing in the Champions League. 'Whether it happens today or not, it is hard to say. If it is possible, we will get him. Besiktas fans can rest assured.' But, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Sancho has rejected a reunion with former Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in Turkey. The 25-year-old is believed to be holding out for a move to Italy and has therefore rejected Besiktas' advances, though his stance may change if he is still searching for a new club as the transfer deadline approaches. Manchester United are hoping to sell Sancho for around £20m, which would represent a massive loss on a player they signed for £73m in 2021. Ex-Old Trafford striker Teddy Sheringham believes Sancho's hopes of joining another 'big club' are slim following his recent struggles. The best moments of Sancho's career came across two spells at Borussia Dortmund but the Bundesliga club have ruled out another move this summer. Sancho did help Chelsea qualify for the Champions League and win the Conference League last season but his individual performances were largely underwhelming. 'Jadon Sancho will definitely not play for a big club ever again,' United hero Sheringham told Snabbare. 'He will probably tell you that he can and he will but not for me. 'I see that he's burned his bridges with the manager. He's not even got a place in the changing room. 'Maybe if he'd be given another chance he could work for what Amorim wants but I know from experience once you've gone down that path of being unhappy and wanting out that it's very hard to turn it around with the manager, with the supporters, with the other players. 'You've got to show an unbelievable mental desire to turn that around. It can be done, and I know he's a talented lad, but I would be very, very surprised if that was the case now.' Sancho is not the only member of Amorim's 'bomb squad' this summer, with United also hoping to sell Alejandro Garnacho and Antony. Rasmus Hojlund, meanwhile, is free to leave following the signing of Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig. AC Milan are interested in the Denmark international. Hojlund has spent two underwhelming seasons at Old Trafford but Sheringham sympathises with the 22-year-old. 'I like his battling qualities, his endeavour and his desire,' Sheringham added. 'That's what is needed when things are going tough. More Trending 'But for me, he hasn't had the service. If he was missing four chances a game, you'd look at him and go, how can he still carry on playing? 'But he's not. He's having one chance every three games and snatching at it and not scoring. You can't feed off things like that as a striker. 'You need to be having those four chances and grabbing two of them then getting your confidence from there. I really feel for him. I think it's harsh to criticise him given the way that Manchester United play.' It remains to be seen whether Hojlund will still be a United player by the time Arsenal travel to Old Trafford for a mouth-watering Premier League opener on Sunday.

Gerhard Struber keen to credit Bristol City supporters after Carabao Cup success
A sixth-minute header from captain Jason Knight and powerful 61st-minute finish from substitute Yu Hirakawa earned a 2-0 win over League Two MK Dons which puts the Championship club safely into round two. City head coach Struber said: 'My feeling was that the game might attract 4,000 or 5,000 fans and we end up getting 10,000. We can feel the appreciation of the supporters and the atmosphere here is so important to us. 'I hear the game against Charlton on Saturday is sold out, so we will have a packed crowd and that will be even more important against a team from the same level. 'In the first half we found it difficult to break MK Dons down but in the second there was much more power in our game.' Dons boss Paul Warne said: 'I was pleased with the effort shown. 'We made a lot of changes to get game-time into other players and they came really strong. 'Apart from the first five or six minutes we gave a good account of ourselves and I was pretty proud. I'm also pleased we came away with no injuries. 'Bristol City thoroughly deserved to go through and I have no complaints. It doesn't detract from the fact that we did very well and we can go into our next league game [at home to Cheltenham] full of confidence.'
