Hi there 🤖 👋

The Premier League is generally seen as one of the biggest litmus tests for world-class players to shine and cement their legacies. Players, who generally come from other leagues, tend to take their game up a notch to prove themselves and rub shoulders with some of the best players in the game. There are, however, certain players who remain in the public’s mind for all the wrong reasons. Ligue 1 does not fall into the category of top leagues in Europe....

Manchester United came into this fixture knowing fully well that defeat might leave them in dire straits. Victory over a side that is flying high in the Bundesliga and have won their last eight CL home games was going to a tough ask for any side. Particularly a United side without Carrick, Vidic and Van Persie. Moyes came into the fixture knowing that United’s record against German opposition wasn’t the best and his side had to be on their A-game if they are to come away with anything from Germany....

The Mumbai team made it a double by having also won the Indian Premier League (IPL) earlier this year, only the second team after Chennai Super Kings (2010) having done so. The Indians also became the first team to clinch two CLT20 titles, the first one coming in 2011. After the win, Tendulkar was seen being carried to the dugout by his team, waving the Mumbai Indians flag. He was also given the guard of honour twice during the match....

Here are the best 5 moments in Indian Cricket history that fans cannot forget. #1 Sourav Ganguly taking his shirt off on Lord’s Balcony It was in the year 2002 NatWest series, England versus India and the series decider set up nicely at the iconic Lords ground. England after winning the toss had opted to bat first. Opener Marcus Trescothick and captain Nasser Hussain went berserk with the bat and dispatched Indian bowlers to every part of the park...

Sitting four points clear at the top of the Premier League, with ten wins from 13 games, Arsenal have had their most promising start to the season for many a year, and actually look like having a chance of ending the infamous dry spell that has seen them go eight seasons without a trophy. However, many are still waiting for the meltdown – for normal service to be resumed, and the Gunners to drop to their usual fourth place spot....

After a prolonged stint as a free agent, the 26-year-old star outfielder reportedly agreed to a record breaking 13-year, $330 million contract with the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday. Harper, who hit 34 home runs and 100 RBIs in 2018, spent his first seven MLB seasons with the Phillies’ division rivals the Washington Nationals. He is a six-time All-Star and won the MVP award in 2015. Here we look at five takeaways from Harper’s mega-deal with the Phillies....

The importance of a holding midfielder The absence of Dimitar Berbatov forced Martin Jol to make a tactical change, by bringing on a holding midfielder in Chris Baird. Hopefully after his link-up play, Jol will be motivated to play players in a holding role more often; something that is believed to be extinct in the Premier League. If the philosophy of learning more on losing is to be believed, Jol will definitely look to Baird to keep his midfield together and link up play similar to that of Paul Scholes or Michael Carrick, who seemed to have mastered the holding role....

Already a gold medalist and two-time All-NBA choice, it wasn’t even close to the biggest achievement of his career. And, of course, that’s not to mention his pair of championship rings as a member of the Warriors in 2015 and 2017. It’s an impressive and unlikely haul for a player whom many pegged a tweener that would have trouble finding his way onto the floor before he was taken in the second round (35th overall) in the 2012 NBA Draft....

Their free time is precious. I wanted to know how ballplayers like to use those moments, so when I was traveling around training camps this spring, both in Florida and Arizona, I asked them this question: “What’s your favorite free-time activity?” MORE: Watch ‘ChangeUp,’ a new MLB live whiparound show on DAZN Here are 15 answers. Clint Frazier, Yankees outfielder “Playing ‘Fortnite’ with this guy (Tyler Wade).

There’s been a lot of talk in the last few months about how the brutal schedules of young interns affect patient care. I know firsthand how they also affect doctors’ families. So when I heard about the recent lawsuit filed by residents seeking to raise their salaries and reduce their workload, I was overjoyed. My husband quickly informed me that New York state has attempted to limit residents’ hours for years; from the amount of free time we’ve had, I’d say the attempt has been less than successful....

“It’s very tough,” Toussaint said after the game, via the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. “I hate losing. Definitely, I hate fumbling the football. Especially when it’s in a position like that … “They made a great play. You’ve got to give them credit. But in my position, I put it on me."

The impromptu Shield reunion was one of the most exciting moments on Raw this year, and now many fans are speculating as to what the company’s long-term plans for the group are. Of course, this isn’t the first Shield reunion we have seen in the WWE. The group briefly reunited at the end of 2017, but their run was cut short thanks to injuries to both Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose....

Quarterback is viewed as the most important position in football, so it’s crucial that teams get it right. The NFL can be a brutal business where coaches get fired after one season, so if they make the wrong call on who starts at QB, it could cost them their job. Even if the stakes aren’t that high, a correct quarterback change can make a drastic improvement on a team. In 2019, we saw the Titans go from Marcus Mariota to Ryan Tannehill....

The match that took 15 years to happen and one of the ones we have all talked about over the years is finally going to come to fruition. Now that The Club has been banned from ringside, it is almost a forgone conclusion something else will happen to leave is all trying to pick our jaws up off the floor. If anything, there is plenty of excitement about this show – something WWE has lacked in recent past....

This new manager, who’ll replace Dusty Baker after just two (winning) seasons, will be the franchise’s seventh since 2006. Let’s just say the new guy will probably rent in D.C., not buy. Even with that giant red flag, this is a fascinating opening because the Nationals’ 2018 roster is very, very capable of winning a World Series. The talent is there, without a doubt.

Garrett was a five-star recruit coming out of high school in 2014, according to 247Sports.com, but played in just three games last year. Injuries held him back, including a torn labrum that forced offseason surgery. He will reportedly transfer to an undisclosed school in the JUCO ranks.

If it still didn’t quite feel like a moment to stick a thumb up and yell “Mission Accomplished” it’s because it really wasn’t. Sure, the U.S. team can be allowed to feel good for the heart and never-say-die attitude that allowed for a late-game comeback, but that didn’t erase the reality that — taken as a complete 90 minutes — the Americans played poorly. USA 80/1 to win World Cup...
