Blues were soundly defeated at the CBS Arena, where goals from Josh Eccles and Viktor Gyokeres in the first half left the Sky Blues on track to finish inside the Championship play-offs.

Players had been ushered away from the physios as Lockyer was running backwards when he stumbled and bent his leg awkwardly after his studs became stuck in the turf,…

He then became the first Spurs player in Premier League history to score a brace at the…
Spurs have started the current Premier League season with style, winning six of their first eight games and remaining unbeaten. Wins over Bournemouth, Manchester United, Burnley, Sheffield United, Liverpool, and Luton Town have put the north Londoners in excellent form, and it is their greatest start to a season since 1960/1961, when they won the domestic double. Some misfits from last season have found new life under Postecoglou, who is proving to be an increasingly popular appointment. Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr, who were rarely used by Antonio Conte, have emerged as Tottenham’s new twin midfield pivots, and have…

Andy Ruiz Jr will be remembered for stealing Anthony Joshua’s undefeated record as well as his unified world heavyweight belts. That night in New York in 2019 was one of the biggest heavyweight upsets in the sport, and many believe it influenced Joshua as a boxer even if he easily won the rematch less than six months later. Since then, the Brit has lost both of his championships to Oleksandr Usyk, and he was unable to accomplish so in their rematch. He’s found himself on the comeback trail, and all roads appear to go to Deontay Wilder for him and…

The work must not stop now, with the “revolution” of young signings – as described by football.london’s Alasdair Gold – laying the groundwork for what might be a golden age, and while the winter transfer market is still months away, another prodigy could arrive…
