Three Points: Manchester United vs. Wolves

Formation  I felt like too much was being made of Ruben Amorim’s adjustments in recent weeks, but last week was a clear shift to a back four in the first half. With Mason Mount most likely out, we could see another adjustment to the set-up. It’s hard to predict the starting set-up with so many […]

What do Barcelona need from Lamine Yamal in 2026?

It’s hard to believe that Lamine Yamal is still just 18 years old, and coming off a year in 2025 where he transformed into the next big global superstar.

Caleb Williams Stands on the Brink of Bears Quarterback History

History is staring Caleb Williams in the face as the Chicago Bears head into Week 18. With one game left on the regular-season schedule, Williams is on the doorstep of rewriting a franchise passing record book that has stood largely untouched for decades. He needs 109 passing yards to break Erik Kramer’s single-season passing yardage record (3,838 in 1995) and 270 yards to become the first 4,000-yard passer in Bears history. On top of that, Williams sits at 25 passing touchdowns, four shy...
