It was a great weekend for Red Bull at the Japanese Grand Prix, with Max Verstappen returning to the top of the podium ahead of teammate Sergio Perez. But speculation remains over the futures of both drivers and Christian Horner, with the fallout from the ongoing case against the Team Principal causing tension. Lewis Hamilton’s final year at Mercedes is proving anything but a successful swanswong, and the seven-time world champion was again frustrated in Suzuka as he laboured to ninth. George Russell was only two places ahead of him, and has now been publicly challenged by Toto Wolff. The driver market is also prompting frenzied interest, with the likes of Fernando Alonso and Carlos Sainz linked with a seriesContinue Reading

At the back, David Raya remains the clear first choice between the sticks, while Gabriel Magalhaes and William Saliba are one of the most fearsome centre-back partnerships in all of Europe, never mind the Premier League. Ben White is playing well at right-back and should keep his spot, even with Takehiro Tomiyasu breathing down his neck. Arteta’s second change from the Brighton game is likely to come on the left-hand side instead. Oleksandr Zinchenko has slipped down the pecking order since falling victim to the trend of central defenders playing at full-back. Jakub Kiwior has been a regular starter since early February, and the Polish international should be fresh, fit and raring to go after watching the Gunners beat BrightonContinue Reading

Luke Littler choked an eleventh-leg decider on his own throw against Ross Smith to be dumped out of Players Championship 7 on Monday. ‘The Nuke’ held a comfortable lead in the leg and looked on course to book his spot on the quarter-finals, before Smith came roaring back in the nick of time. Littler was on track to clinch his second Players Championship triumph of the year when he edged out the world’s in-form player, Luke Humphries, in the last 32. A repeat of the World Darts Championship final saw the 17-year-old prevail 6-5 after a tense decider.

The Premier League have handed Everton a second points deduction for breaching their profit and sustainability rules. The Toffees have been docked a further two points, which sees the club drop to 16th in the table. Everton were handed a 10-point deduction in November, a figure which was reduced to six after the Goodison Park outfit appealed against the breaches. However, a second breach has seen Sean Dyche’s team hit with another docking. Following their 1-0 win over Burnley over the weekend, Everton now drop from 29 points to 27 points – meaning they are just two points above the relegation-battling Nottingham Forest and Luton Town. Everton have since released a statement on their new charges, which read: “In JanuaryContinue Reading

Adrian Newey has revealed that he is keeping his options open when it comes to his future after being linked with a move away from Red Bull. Newey is arguably the greatest technical mastermind in F1 history and has been designing Red Bull’s cars since joining the team in 2005.

Especially after an opening 45 minutes where Liverpool kept their opponents without a single shot on goal, Klopp felt that they should have beaten United. But was pleased to have gained a point and did not view it as two dropped in the title race. “We should have won the game, that is clear,” he added. “We should have had other goals in the first half already. No shots in the first half and 1-0 is the lowest we could expect. Really well done from Bruno. Then the stadium is coming and we needed a few minutes to settle again and they scored another screamer. We had big chances before and after they scored. “As far as I’m concerned, weContinue Reading
