Antonio Conte has insisted that he is not like the previous Chelsea managers sacked by Roman Abrahamovic and does is not scared of losing his job after watching his team battle to a 4-2 win over Watford at Stamford Bridge. “The club has to judge the work and honestly, I don’t have this type of worry [about] if I lose the game, if the club decides to sack me. “In the past, the club decided after two losses or three bad games to sack a manager. I don’t think it is the same for every manager. You change the person,…

It was too much, that’s not football,” Neymar is quoted as saying. “I didn’t lose my cool. I accept my mistake. Marseille were good, but we were below-par. “We can play much better.

It’s becoming a similar setup: the biggest Grammy Award battle coming down to a face-off between a revered British pop star and R&B/hip-hop royalty. In 2016, those spots were filled by Adele and Beyoncé, ending with the former taking album of the year for 25 and giving a tearfully apologetic acceptance speech in which she said what plenty of Grammy watchers were thinking: that Queen Bey’s politically charged Lemonade, a “monumental,” “soul-baring” and “empowering” statement, deserved the win. This year, a similar showdown looks likely for album, record and song of the year. In one corner there’s Ed Sheeran, an…
