Getting to the gym can be a tough task in itself and we often forget that fuelling up with food is important before a workout. What you choose to eat is important and it turns out you can do a lot worse than grabbing a banana on the go. A study published in the Journal of Proteome […]

If the idea of preparing a meal after a long day in work seems like too much hard work, you could easily fall into the habit of making double portions. It might sound like a handy way to cook for two days and save some effort, but did you know that you could be leaving […]

What exactly is he getting at? Messi’s ‘pass-penalty‘ against Celta Vigo, eventually dispatched by Luis Suarez, has generated all sorts of reactions, from admiration to condemnation. But now Cristiano Ronaldo has had his say, and it is being taken as a cryptic dig at his great rival. The Portuguese was asked about the spot-kick ahead of […]

Is Eden Hazard trying to force Chelsea’s hand? Certainly his performance against PSG in the first leg of Chelsea’s Champions League encounter left a lot to be desired. The mercurial Belgian looked disinterested and non-plussed for the most part. Of course there have been rumours linking the player to a move to Paris, and this […]

Edison Cavani’s late goal might have taken some of the shine off a decent Chelsea performance in Paris, but as we always hear after the first leg of a Champions League tie – ‘it’s only half-time’. The 2-1 defeat was the first suffered by Guus Hiddink since returning to Chelsea. Incredibly, the Dutchman also only lost […]

A bit too cocky? Following the final whistle at the Parc des Princes, Gary Lineker claimed a 2-1 lead at home in the first-half of a European fixture was the most precarious of leads. Indeed few can deny that Paris Saint-Germain’s narrow victory over Chelsea leaves both sides with a realistic prospect of proceeding in the competition. But […]

Given the phenomenal career he’s had, it takes a brave man to start questioning Cristiano Ronaldo about his goal scoring record. But in a press conference ahead of Real Madrid’s Champions League tie against Roma, one reporter dared to ask the Portuguese star why he hadn’t notched up an away goal since November. Unsurprisingly, Ronaldo […]

We’ve been here before. Once again, there’s another Glastonbury petition in the offing. It was announced on Tuesday that Coldplay would be headlining this year’s festival, prompting mixed reactions from festival goers.

He never scores, yet John Obi Mikel had a significant role in both first half goals at the Parc des Princes. First of all, his deflection carried Zlatan Ibrahimovic beyong Thibaut Courtois to open the scoring for PSG. https://twitter.com/saintxsinner/status/699691313172643840?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw But with Chelsea gaining a corner just before half time, the ball fell to the Nigerian, […]

Zlatan Ibrahimovic (who else?) put Paris Saint-Germain ahead against Chelsea. The Swede opened to scoring at the Parc des Princes from a free-kick, which took a pretty significant deflection as it found its way in to the Chelsea goal. https://twitter.com/saintxsinner/status/699691313172643840

The Champions League returns as Chelsea face Paris Saint-Germain in the French capital. Chelsea were knocked out by PSG at the same stage of last season’s competition. With it already looking unlikely that Guus Hiddink’s men will finish in the Premier League’s top four, winning the Champions League might represent their only way of returning to the […]

Louis van Gaal is not every Manchester United supporter’s cup of tea at the moment.

If there was any hope amongst Aston Villa supporters that they would beat the drop, a hammering by Liverpool probably extinguished it.

For all the talk about Jamie Vardy, Riyad Mahrez and Alexis Sanchez, the man that made the most telling contribution was a man making his first appearance of the season. Having surprisingly made the Arsenal bench, Danny Welbeck’s 94th-minute header was enough to grab a vital three points for Arsene Wenger’s side, reigniting their title […]

Result aside, Martin Atkinson was at the centre of plenty of the action as Leicester City faced Arsenal. Having awarded Jamie Vardy the penalty which put Leicester in front before half-time, plenty of Arsenal supporters were furious. Some felt their team should have been given a free-kick before Vardy won the spot-kick. Others (somehow) doubted whether […]

Jamie Vardy won the first half penalty that allowed Leicester City to open the scoring at The Emirates.

They’re at it again. Leicester City have taken the lead at The Emirates, after Jamie Vardy won and scored a penalty just before half time. Martin Atkinson pointed to the spot after the 29-year-old drew a foul from Nacho Monreal. Here’s how Twitter reacted… Some debated whether Monreal’s challenge was worthy of a penalty, with […]

Many football fans can relate to the mild sense of panic that’s experienced when a ball is passed back to an overconfident goalkeeper. Goals like this one are the reason that such fear exists. In their game against Altrincham, Lincoln City goalkeeper Paul Farman received the ball from a team-mate. Instead of lumping the ball down […]

Finally, Gary Neville earned his first La Liga victory in charge of Valencia.

The former Manchester United captain […]
