Fabien Barthez believes Paris Saint-Germain did not respect Manchester United in their Champions League clash as the French giants bowed out on Wednesday. PSG crashed out of the Champions League in the last 16 following a stunning 3-1 second-leg defeat to United in Paris. Marcus Rashford converted a 94th-minute penalty as United overturned a 2-0 first-leg deficit to progress on away goals. Former United goalkeeper Barthez, who won two Premier League titles with the club in 2001 and 2003, criticised PSG afterwards. https://twitter.com/PSG_English/status/1103414612211449857 “A lack of respect,” Barthez told Le Parisien. “I think these are the first values of an athlete…

What’s the story? Manchester United scripted history on Wednesday night, becoming the first team ever to overcome a 2-goal deficit away from home by knocking Paris Saint-Germain out of the Champions League in the round of 16. The game at the Parc des Princes was one of the nerviest and tense encounters in recent Champions League memory, and the visitors played on the hosts’ nerves to advance to the next round. In case you didn’t know… 2 goals from Romelu Lukaku and a 90th-minute penalty by Marcus Rashford completed the turnaround for the Red Devils, who have added another chapter to their historic…

For as long as I can remember, I have used an alarm clock to wake myself up in the morning, and although I despise the jarring beeping sound, it’s better than when my kids beat my alarm to the punch before dawn. Mornings have long been a struggle for me. I hate getting out of bed, I tend to wake up groggy, and it takes a long time and a lot of caffeine to get me moving. Over the past year, I made a concerted effort to seize the day by setting up a strong morning routine. I began setting my alarm…

You might feel inadequate when others flaunt the tantalizing places they go, the fascinating people they meet and the envy-worthy stuff they buy. But the voice in your head can land a worse blow to your confidence and your drive toward achievement. You know that voice, the one that traps you in negativity by dwelling endlessly on what’s missing. Although all small-business owners worry about needing more employees, capital and expertise, unchecked hand-wringing over deficiencies can sidetrack you from conquering the real issue, which is figuring out how to make great things happen. The voice in your head can land a worse…

By James Clear Many people, myself included, have multiple areas of life they would like to improve. For example, I would like to reach more people with my writing, to lift heavier weights at the gym, and to start practicing mindfulness more consistently. Those are just a few of the goals I find desirable and you probably have a long list yourself. The problem is, even if we are committed to working hard on our goals, our natural tendency is to revert back to our old habits at some point. Making a permanent lifestyle change is really difficult. Recently, I’ve come…

Romelu Lukaku felt Manchester United’s strong mentality was to the fore as he starred in a 3-1 win at Crystal Palace. Belgium striker Lukaku scored twice at Selhurst Park for an injury-hit United, who returned to winning ways following Sunday’s goalless draw against title-chasing Liverpool. Such responses have become an early hallmark of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s reign at Old Trafford. After dropping points for the first time in a 2-2 draw at home to Burnley, United won 1-0 at Leicester City, while Solskjaer’s maiden defeat to Paris Saint-Germain was followed by Chelsea being dumped out of the FA Cup “A…

No less than a week ago, discontent was brewing at the Chelsea camp. It is a club famous for hiring and firing; the managerial role at Stamford Bridge is no doubt one of the highest-pressure jobs in football. It is no surprise then, that after the embarrassing 4-0 defeat at Bournemouth and 6-0 at the Etihad Stadium, amidst a run of 5 wins in 12 games since the turn of the year, many were clamoring for Maurizio Sarri to leave. The Italian himself seemed at a loss of words. “I don’t know what has happened but at this moment we…

Pep Guardiola believes Manchester City are going through their toughest spell of the campaign in terms of injuries and suggested he will be without Aymeric Laporte, John Stones and Gabriel Jesus until after the March international break. The Premier League champions remained a point behind leaders Liverpool on Wednesday after Sergio Aguero’s second-half penalty secured a 1-0 win over West Ham. City headed into the game without influential defensive midfielder Fernandinho, who suffered a groin injury during last Sunday’s EFL Cup final triumph against Chelsea. Laporte was substituted at half-time at Wembley due to a hamstring complaint and joined fellow…

The fallout from Kepa Arrizabalaga’s substitution row has not split the Chelsea dressing room, according to Pedro. The Spanish goalkeeper was dropped for Wednesday’s 2-0 Premier League win over Tottenham after refusing to be substituted during the Blues’ EFL Cup final defeat to Manchester City at the weekend. Kepa, who twice required treatment during extra time, was handed a fine by the club, although he and head coach Maurizio Sarri initially explained away the incident as a misunderstanding. But Sarri selected Willy Caballero to face Spurs and said he was trying to send a message to his squad that Chelsea…
