The 28-year-old left Neymar with a bloodied face after catching him forcefully with an elbow during their World Cup qualifier in Natal, but he showed no remorse.

Manchester United playmaker Juan Mata thinks a third straight Premier League victory at Anfield would prove his side mean business as they attempt to challenge for the title. Despite losing out to Jurgen Klopp’s side over two legs in the Europa League last 16 last season, United won Premier League meetings on Merseyside in March 2015 and January 2016. Mata scored twice in the first of those meetings and is relishing what he believes will be an impressive spectacle, one which gives Jose Mourinho’s team a chance to highlight their progress. “This has been a different week due to the…
Hold on a moment, Manchester City. A few days ago, Pep Guardiola’s team were strongly linked with a move for Juventus defender Leonardo Bonucci — but now Chelsea are ready to offer Eden Hazard in a dramatic deal, according to the Sun. With Blues boss Antonio Conte seemingly on a constant lookout for defensive reinforcements at the moment, Italy defender Bonucci has become “his No 1 priority,” the Sun claims. And after reports that Juve could be ready to part with Bonucci for a deal involving a huge fee plus Chelsea’s Spain international midfielder Cesc Fabregas, Conte is ready to…

Fosu-Mensah made 10 appearances for the Red Devils last season, and…

Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler is confident that Jurgen Klopp can guide the club to a finish in the Premier League’s top four. Klopp’s side have made an impressive start to the campaign and currently sit just two points adrift of leaders Manchester City. The Reds last appeared in the Champions League during the 2014-15 season, and Fowler believes they are well on their way to securing a place in Europe’s elite competition under the former Borussia Dortmund boss. “Liverpool should always have ambitions to finish as high up in the table as possible,” Fowler told Sport360. “We always want to…
Liverpool’s in-form striker Sadio Mane revealed that he models his game after Brazilian legend Ronaldinho. The Senegalese forward joined Liverpool from Southampton in the offseason for a fee of around £30 million, after a successful two-season stint at St. Mary’s and has been a revelation under Jurgen Klopp’s regime. Teaming up with Brazilian duo Roberto Firmino and Philippe Coutinho, the trio have been the backbone of Liverpool’s great start to the season. Despite becoming the most expensive African player in history, Mane is not letting those numbers get into his head and insists that he will always play with a…
Gerard Pique says the 2018 World Cup in Russia will be his final tournament with Spain because he feels he is not wanted in the national team by some. The Barcelona defender made the announcement after Spain’s 2-0 win at Albania on Sunday in European qualifying for the World Cup. Spain currently top Group G, with only first place giving automatic qualification. “I always give everything I have on the field, but there are people who think it’s better if I’m not here,” Pique said. “After Russia, a stage will have ended for me.” The player is often jeered by…

Wayne Rooney’s teammates have rallied to his defence after he was booed on England’s Wembley return. Rooney was barracked by a small but audible section of the 81,000 crowd during Saturday’s 2-0 win over Malta, most noticeably when he sent a late shot high and wide. It continues a trend of difficult days for the captain, who was poor in the Euro 2016 defeat by Iceland and again in Sam Allardyce’s solitary match in charge in Slovakia last month. In all three matches Rooney, the country’s record goalscorer, has operated in a midfield role he still appears to be feeling…
Gareth Southgate says he has no issue making big selection decisions amid pressure to drop England captain Wayne Rooney. Rooney was deployed in a midfield role in Saturday’s straightforward 2-0 win against Malta and bore the brunt of the expectant Wembley fans’ frustrations when missing a late shot, having been jeered earlier on by some supporters. Southgate now has to decide whether to stick with the 117-cap Rooney in Slovenia on Tuesday, but he said such a decision pales into insignificance when compared to those made when in charge at Middlesbrough in 2009. Staff were let go as the club…

Solidstar is a super singer who, incredibly, is criminally underappreciated. Why? The Nigerian Afro-Pop singer whose style is described as a mix of Reggae, R&B and Pop music, consistently received praise for his style of music, and contributions to some indisputable playlist-topping songs.

The worst part about my childhood were trips to the amusement park, because I have to ride the merry-go-round, an annoying contraption that takes me in endless circles, and leaves me feeling sick, with a spinning head, unbalanced steps, and lingering nausea. Once I took a risk, refused to hold on, let go, unbuckled my strap, and was thrown out. I gave up, and never had to return there again. The bruises convinced my folks that their outward happiness, meant inner pain for me. I had found a way to bring that pain out. Burna Boy’s recent revelations on Twitter…
