THERE are some absolutely key race days fast approaching in the run-up to Cheltenham Festival. One of them will take place at the home of jumps this Saturday – but I'm looking elsewhere for a big return. DEMACHINE was my tip at Ascot’s abandoned card over the weekend and I see he has been chalked […]
SERGE GNABRY has come under fire from Bayern Munich boss Julian Nagelsmann after attending Paris Fashion Week hours after their draw with RB Leipzig. The Bundesliga champions made their long-awaited return to action on Friday but could only share the points with Nagelsmann's former side. Gnabry played 82 minutes at the Red Bull Arena and […]
GABRIEL JESUS will reportedly be back in action for Arsenal within five weeks. That, at least, is according to UFC legend Khabib Nurmagomedov. The MMA superstar, 34, retired with a perfect 29-0 record after his win over Justin Gaethje in October 2020. Now enjoying his time off from fighting, he was in London yesterday to […]
THE Formula One car driven by Michael Schumacher on his debut in has gone up for sale. Back in 1991, Schumacher was dropped in to replace Bertrand Gachot at the Belgian Grand Prix. The car he drove that day, the Jordan 191, gave him his first taste of F1 before he would eventually go on […]

CARLO ANCELOTTI produced a hilarious interaction with a fan during Real Madrid's clash with Athletic Bilbao. The Italian coach can often be seen chewing gum while on the sidelines of his team's games. And one fan took full advantage of this knowledge and fired a cheeky request at Ancelotti while he was by the dugout. […]
PEP GUARDIOLA CALLED for guts, fire and passion. What he got was cool, calm, and collected finishing from a player destined to be one of the greatest strikers of all time. The cries of ‘Haaland, Haaland, Haaland’ that greeted his substitution with his job done after another hat-trick will have had the hairs on the […]
MANCHESTER UNITED are set to bring youngster Kobbie Mainoo into the squad for the trip to Arsenal with Casemiro suspended. Erik ten Hag has a spot to fill after the Brazilian midfielder picked up his fifth booking of the season in the draw to Crystal Palace, resulting in a one-match ban. Mainoo, 17, looks set […]
ARSENAL fans feel they signed the wrong Brighton winger after Kaoru Mitoma scored a wondergoal for the Seagulls at Leicester. The Japan international has impressed on the South Coast this season and has three goals in his last five Premier League games. Like Leandro Trossard, he plays on the left wing and Brighton have not […]
Remember the last time Chelsea and Liverpool played? No? Well, it feels like it was six years ago.
