Mohamed Salah further strengthened his case for this year’s Ballon d’Or award with another magnificent performance as Liverpool strolled past Manchester City in a 2-0 victory at the Etihad on Sunday. The result sent the Premier League leaders 11 points clear of Arsenal, who suffered a shock defeat at home to West Ham earlier…

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes is ‘massively disrespected’, says Rio Ferdinand Rio Ferdinand says Manchester United are a Championship-level team when Bruno Fernandes is not on the field and the midfielder is ‘massively disrespected’ by fans of the Premier League. United find themselves languishing down in 15th in the Premier League after a wretched start to the campaign, with Ruben Amorim failing to steady the ship since replacing Erik ten Hag in the hot seat at the Theatre of Dreams. But Fernandes has once again been a shining light for the Red Devils across an otherwise turbulent few months,…

Galatasaray have announced that they intend to report Jose Mourinho to UEFA and FIFA for alleged ‘racist’ comments the Fenerbahce head coach made following their match this evening.

Is even Mario Kart 9 a given? (YouTube) Limited timeI don’t think a June release date for the Nintendo Switch 2 makes sense for any reason other than Nintendo are trying to avoid something, aka GTA 6. I certainly haven’t heard any other explanation, unless they were aiming for March, like the first Switch, and this is just the closest they could get. Maybe it’s a combination of the two. It does make me wonder how many games we’ll get this year though, as you’ve only got six months to get everything out, instead of nine. For the Switch…
