Both Manchester United and Chelsea struggled to score in an equally contested first half. However, the Red Devils managed to score a goal from the spot in the 18th minute, courtesy Marcus Rashford. Unfortunately for Chelsea, Manchester United put in three goals in the second half and ultimately ended the Blues’s hopes of salvaging a point. Rashford added another while Anthony Martial and Daniel James also got into the act, turning the match into a slaughter....

The following players – for various reasons – simply haven’t been used a lot at all by their clubs this season, and with all of them not likely to have too many years left at the top, it’s probably a good idea for them to attempt to find a move as soon as possible. Here are 3 players who could benefit from a transfer this January: #3 Shkodran Mustafi (Arsenal) It seems bizarre to think that it was only just over three years ago that Arsenal parted with more than £35 million to bring German defender Shkodran Mustafi to the Emirates Stadium....

There have already been many significant moments at the start of the league, and there were two results that were expected but also significant - Manchester City’s 5-0 thumping of West Ham and Liverpool’s 4-1 win over Norwich.

The 27-year-old former Chelsea man was filmed attacking a Bengal cat with his brother Yoan present. The video, originally shared by English tabloid The Sun, shows Zouma picking up the cat from another room and bringing it into the kitchen before drop-kicking the cat across the floor. He then throws shoes at the animal before later slapping it in the face. The video appears to have originated on social media platform Snapchat, and the individual filming can be heard laughing throughout the series of short videos....

#5 Sarri speaks about the January transfer window Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri has spoken about the possibility of signing players for the Blues in the winter market. After starting their season brightly, Chelsea have fallen to two defeats in their last three Premier League matches.

The Dallas quarterback threw a 64-yard touchdown pass to Tavon Austin on the third play of the game and the Cowboys sacked Eli Manning six times in a 20-13 victory over the New York Giants on Sunday night.

Manning and the Giants have started 0-2 for the fifth time in the past six seasons....

When the COVID-19 pandemic started, I lost my security job and took a job at a dog daycare which paid me only two-thirds of what I’d been making. I told myself that something was better than nothing. Now, as of April, I’ve graduated an entire year early. I knew that finishing my degree in three years would mean adding to my already full workload—all to save on tuition. And yet, despite graduating early, in April, I crossed the stage with a shadow of $40,000 in debt trailing after me....

Not since Reagan has a president so clearly laid out the core values that make America free—and stood defiantly in defense of those values despite the ridicule and hostility of the elites, news media, academics and his political opponents. President Reagan was focused on defending freedom from foreign threats—the Soviet Union and international Communism. Reagan had a conversation in the late 1940s over drinks with a Screen Actors Guild member who proclaimed himself a Stalinist....

Gilbert, a legendary American success story in the mid 20th century, was receding into the haze of history until late last year, when a witty and enjoyable biography appeared: “The Man Who Changed How Boys and Toys Were Made” by Bruce Watson. Shortly thereafter, a December television movie, “The Man Who Saved Christmas,” brought Gilbert to life in the person of Jason Alexander. (Gilbert “saved Christmas” in 1918 by convincing the Council of National Defense to abandon a planned wartime ban on toy sales....

The state has an alarmingly high teen-pregnancy rate, but the Governor’s Council on Adolescent Pregnancy, formed in 1987 to bring it down, recently announced some cheering statistics. The number of pregnancies among Maryland girls under 18 fell 13 percent between 1988 and 1990 (more recent data are not yet available). And while the birthrate among the state’s 15-to 17-year-olds remained steady from 1988 to 1989, nationwide it rose 8.4 percent....

With the series’ 20th anniversary approaching in 2022, series director Tetsuya Nomura has teased some big game announcements are in store for 2022. However, things aren’t necessarily the same at Square Enix now, compared to the last decade. Kingdom Hearts is no longer in spin-off limbo, despite Melody of Memory releasing this fall.

Over the years, she has accumulated seven BWF Grand Prix titles as well the same number of titles at the BWF International Challenge/Series level....

To win an FA Cup is in some ways harder than to win the league. This might seem completely counterintuitive. However, think about it. Let us say you have by far the best and deepest squad in the league. The chances of finishing at the top after all the ups and downs of a 38 game schedule are extremely high. However, one slip is all it takes for that same squad to be out of the Cup....

The Red Devils had faced Wolves three times last season in the Premier League and had failed to secure a win. Incidentally, United had lost both games at the Molineux, while only managing a draw at Old Trafford.

It was also a personal challenge for the Norwegian, who had never won at Molineux and he made just one change to the team that won against Chelsea....
