data-mm-id=”_l0ay5o0e5″>Mike Francesa is once again allowing people to post clips from his show online and a certain Twitter account has decided to post them again.After a two-week crusade to stop anyone from posting his content — mainly aimed at the Funhouse Twitter account (@BackAftaThis) — Francesa relented (but not before he laid the blame at the feet of Entercom). Initially, Funhouse claimed it wouldn't post his clips anymore even after the veteran radio host gave up his battle. That has now changed. On Wednesday, the account posted the following after asking followers if it should start posting Francesa clips again:Please read this accompanying novella. It was too long to squeeze into a tweet. pic.twitter.com/cua2Ip6Upm— Funhouse (@BackAftaThis) May 6, 2020If you can't read that, here's a transcription:”Yes, I said I wouldn’t go back to this. Mike overreacted when he banned me from posting his clips (a decision he reversed two weeks later), and then I overreacted by letting my pride get in the way. We’re both too sensitive…. big deal. But it seems like I’d be more of a fraud for turning my back on the followers I’ve gained DUE TO posting Mike’s clips, compared to changing my position on it. This is just a hobby. I don’t profit from it. All I ever wanted to do was tweet some entertaining crap now and then. If posting Mike’s clips will help give everyone a laugh, especially right now when the world kinda sucks, who am I to deprive people of that? Let me be crystal clear about one thing, however, Mike’s show is awful. You can find tweets of me saying that going back two years. It’s literally painful to sit though every day, just to grab one or two funny clips. But it’s what I do. It’s what people expect. Just please understand that the man works only 90 minutes per day. 70 minutes after commercials. 35 minutes after the long, boring daily interview he does during the Radio.com portion of the show, which I never even listen to. Coming up with tweet-worthy clips from 35 minutes of content is not easy. Many days there will be nothing to post. As I mentioned the other day, a big catalyst for me rethinking this was getting a taste of despicable, deceitful Colin Cowherd day after day. The grass isn’t always greener when you decide to cover other hosts. Mike may be a jerk at times, but he’s OUR jerk.”- FunhouseHuzzah. Following Funhouse's posts about Francesa's show is a blast. And, frankly, it's great publicity for Francesa. Someone around him must have realized that and convinced him to reverse his moronic decision to ban the account from using his show's clips.

Son Heung-min and Harry Kane are doing special things for Tottenham this season, Jose Mourinho said after they inspired Spurs to a 3-0 Premier League win over Leeds United.
Tottenham ended a run of four games without a win in the Premier League in comfortable fashion on Saturday, Son reaching a landmark in the process.
After Kane s penalty put Spurs ahead, Son doubled their advantage with his 100th goal for the club, the England international unsurprisingly the provider.
It marked the 13th time the pair have combined for a goal in the Premier League in 2020-21, tying a record in a single season.
Toby Alderweireld converted Son s corner to make it 3-0 early in the second half as Spurs moved within four points of Liverpool and Manchester United at the top.…
Chelsea great Frank Lampard has taken his first step into management with his appointment at Championship club Derby County.
Lampard emerged as a frontrunner at the weekend and swiftly became the favourite when he revealed Derby s interest. He signed a three-year contract on Thursday.
The Rams were on the lookout for a new manager after Gary Rowett departed for Stoke City in the wake of Derby s play-off semi-final defeat to Fulham.
Lampard ended his playing career in 2016, as two brief spells with Manchester City and New York City followed his remarkably successful 13-year spell at Chelsea.
While some are likely to point at his lack of experience, the 39-year-old is confident in his abilities after learning from the likes of Jose Mourinho and Carlo Ancelo…
Steven Gerrard has backed Aston Villa s decision not to sell Douglas Luiz to Arsenal on deadline day and does not foresee the failed transfer being an issue for the Brazil international.
Arsenal were widely reported to have made a move for Douglas Luiz on Thursday due to injury problems in their midfield.
It was claimed Villa were firmly opposed to a sale at a price Arsenal were willing to go to, though.
A bid of around £20million was said to be lodged, but Villa were instead holding out for £40m for a player in the final year of his contract.
Even with Gerrard s men bringing in fellow midfielder Leander Dendoncker from Wolves, no deal could be done, perhaps leaving Douglas Luiz a little disappointed.
Knowing the boy and the player, I doubt it …
Thomas Tuchel declared Bayern Munich are dying for revenge after their humbling by Manchester City as he revealed Manuel Neuer is stepping up his comeback from injury.
The Bayern head coach oversaw a 3-0 defeat at City in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final on Tuesday.
It was only in the last quarter of the game that City brought down the hammer, taking advantage of generous defending from the Bundesliga leaders.
Many would suppose the tie is all but over, yet Tuchel does not see it that way, with Bayern looking to make their home advantage count in the second leg next Wednesday.
It s important not to lose focus, Tuchel said. The task seems almost impossible, but nothing is impossible in football. I can feel that we are dying for revenge …
Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain could be set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines after sustaining a knee injury on Saturday.

Manager Arsene Wenger confirmed that the promising youngster will definitely miss the UEFA Champions League play-off match against Fenerbahce on Wednesday, with reports in the British media claiming that he could be out for as long as six months.
He is out, definitely out (for the Fenerbache clash), Wenger was quoted as saying by The Daily Mail.
It s a knee problem. It s a bad injury.

Barcelona can enter the New Year just one point behind Real Madrid, if they can surpass Cordoba in La Liga on Saturday.
Luis Enrique s men could not break down Getafe in a 0-0 stalemate last time out in the top flight but can put the pressure back on Carlo Ancelotti s leaders given the latter s league duties are complete for 2014, due to Club World Cup commitments.
Barca were also buoyed by an 8-1 Copa del Rey victory over Huesca on Tuesday, with Pedro on target with a hat-trick in the 12-1 aggregate triumph.
The meeting will be the sides first in La Liga, with Barca winning their Copa del Rey tie in 2012-13 7-0 on aggregate including a 5-0 win at Camp Nou.

Pep Guardiola says Manchester City are working with captain Vincent Kompany to make sure he frees his mind and avoids overthinking any potential issues with his fitness.
Kompany was a last-minute withdrawal from the Belgium starting XI to face Netherlands in the international break, with national team boss Roberto Martinez stressing he was not injured, but did not feel right after the warm-up.
That was similar to City s EFL Cup match at Manchester United last month, when the defender asked to be withdrawn at half-time as he did not feel ready to play in the second half.
Guardiola wants Kompany to feel mentally free now that the worst of the groin and calf problems – which have limited him to just 16 top-flight appearances since the start of 2015-16 seemingly b…
LA Galaxy have confirmed the signing of Landon Donovan, with the former United States international coming out of retirement to rejoin the MLS club.
Donovan retired at the end of the 2014 season having lifted his fourth MLS Cup with Galaxy, while he also had two loan spells in the Premier League with Everton.
The forward, who won 157 caps for United States during a 14-year-international career, is the all-time leading scorer in MLS history.
The 34-year-old rejoins Galaxy for the last few weeks of the season, with the team joint-second in the Western Conference and Donovan said he believes it is a win-win situation although he expects a mixed reaction.
He s back.

Erik ten Hag expects his Manchester United players to show a stronger mentality and earn the right to wear the shirt after they crashed out of the Europa League with a whimper at Sevilla.
It was a horror show for the Red Devils in the second leg at Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on Thursday as they were consigned to a 3-0 second-leg defeat, losing the quarter-final 5-2 on aggregate.
United shot themselves in the foot, Harry Maguire robbed for the first goal after taking a pass from David de Gea to gift Youssef En-Nesyri an early opener.
En-Nesyri later capitalised on terrible mistake from De Gea to complete the scoring after more poor defending gave Loic Bade the opportunity to score Sevilla s second goal.
United were abysmal with so much at stake and boss Ten Hag…
Chelsea are still interested in signing Arsen Zakharyan from Dynamo Moscow, according to Fabrizio Romano.
The first links between the London Blues and the 19-year-old, who has four senior caps as a Russia international under his belt, appeared about a year ago. Since then, Chelsea were caught up in the storm caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which eventually led to a change of ownership at the club. Further more, Thomas Tuchel was sacked earlier this week and Graham Potter has come in from Brighton and Hove Albion to take the head coach role at Stamford Bridge instead. But the interest in Zakharyan remains.
Preferring a central attacking midfield role, the talented youngster is versatile enough to play either left or right too, depending on the need and the m…
