BREAKING NEWS: Kepa fined a week's wages for substitution farce Chelsea have fined Kepa Arrizabalaga one week's wages for refusing to be substituted in Sunday's EFL Cup final defeat to Manchester City. Kepa twice required treatment during extra time at Wembley, with Willy Caballero - Manchester City's shoot-out hero in the 2016 final - prepared to come on. Sarri appeared to be furious as Kepa defied his order to come off, with Caballero left confused on the sidelines during a long delay. The Chelsea boss explained in his post-match news conference that it was a "misunderstanding", saying he understood the apparent injury to Kepa was more serious than the Spaniard felt. The Italian reiterated in Chelsea's statement that there was a mix-up and Kepa has since apologised to Sarri and the rest of the team, though that has not spared him from an internal sanction issued by the club, rather than the coach. "Kepa and I have spoken about the inci

Hazard would star for Real Madrid – Mourinho Chelsea star Eden Hazard has the talent and personality to play for LaLiga giants Real Madrid, according to Jose Mourinho. Hazard, 28, revealed earlier this month he had made a decision on his future, but whether he is staying at Stamford Bridge or leaving remains unclear. The Belgium international is contracted until 2020, yet has been linked consistently with a switch to Madrid. Mourinho, his former coach and an ex-Madrid boss, is unsure what Hazard will do, but he believes the attacker is capable of starring at the Santiago Bernabeu. "Eden's ambitions... playing at Chelsea his whole life or going out to a giant like Real Madrid?" he told DAZN on Sunday. "I can't tell you, because I haven't talked to him for quite a while. "Let's talk about talent. Does he have the talent to play for Real Madrid? He does. Does he have the personality to wear a super heavy shirt and play in front

Lingard on Man United bench against Liverpool, injured Martial and Matic absent Jesse Lingard has been declared fit enough to start on the bench for Manchester United in Sunday's visit of bitter rivals Liverpool, but neither Nemanja Matic nor Anthony Martial are involved. Lingard injured his hamstring in the 2-0 Champions League defeat to Paris Saint-Germain 12 days ago, with interim manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer saying at the time he expected the England international to be out for up to three weeks. Anthony Martial hurt his groin in the same game and Solskjaer suggested on Friday that the Frenchman was further along in his recovery than Lingard, yet he will not feature at Old Trafford. Romelu Lukaku and Juan Mata take their respective places in attack, giving the team a similar set-up to the one which won so impressively at Chelsea on Monday. Matic was also reported to be a doubt after not arriving with the rest of the team at their hotel on Friday, and his ab

Henderson: Man United a different beast Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson is wary of a much-improved Manchester United as the Reds look to return to the top of the Premier League table. United were outclassed 3-1 by Liverpool at Anfield in December – a result that sealed Jose Mourinho's sacking and led to the appointment of caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Solskjaer's United have not lost in the Premier League since that trip to Merseyside, winning eight of the next nine matches ahead of Sunday's showdown. And Henderson knows Liverpool – who can move three points clear of Manchester City at the summit – will be facing a different beast at Old Trafford. "It is a different United, definitely," said Henderson. "They are in a better moment now. They are in much better form, everyone can see that. "Their performance against Chelsea in the FA Cup was very, very good. Their counter-attack was very good and defensively they were so

Claude Puel sacked by Leicester City . Claude Puel has been sacked by Leicester City, the club announced on Sunday. The Frenchman had seen his position come under increasing scrutiny in recent weeks and a 4-1 battering at home to Crystal Palace on Saturday sealed his fate. A sizeable portion of the Foxes' fans stayed behind to vent their frustration at the King Power Stadium, with Leicester yet to win at home in 2019 and having earned just one victory in nine competitive outings. And Leicester have opted to make the change, with a club statement reading: "Leicester City Football Club has parted company with Claude Puel, who leaves his position as First Team Manager with immediate effect.

And do you know there is a church in Nairobi that accepts gays and lesbians? Well, a 50-year-old evangelist Jacinta Nzilani on Friday shocked many people at the Milimani law courts when she publicly declared that she’s a lesbian while at the same time serving as full-time gospel evangelist in Nairobi. SOGIE is an umbrella group for gays and Lesbians. It stands for Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity and Expression. Nzilani, a widow, says she chose to live with another woman because of the inhuman treatment she received from her in-laws when her husband died. She had been married for 25 years.  “I lost my church after my husband died but I have another church near Odeon that accepts people like me,” she told journalists. At first glance, one would think that she was a parent of one of the queer people who thronged the courtroom for

Dear Bunmi, Since we split early in the year, my ex and I shared custody of our four-year-old daughter. This has worked out well, but she has started refering to her dad’s new girlfriend as ‘mummy’. I don’t have anything against the woman, but my daughter has only known her for a couple of months. The worst part is that I’ve never seen them correcting her. I want to stop taking her there for a while. I know it’s wrong, but I’m her only mummy.   Naomi, by e-mail. Dear Naomi, I understand how hard this must be for you, especially as your ex has only been with his girlfriend for a couple of months. I would suggest you sit down with him for a non-confrontational, non-judgemental chat. Maybe it would help to say you’re grateful his girlfriend is making bonds with your little girl, but it’s very important he understands that calling his partner Mummy could be quite confusing to her. Let him know that you really want his new partner and your child to have a close relationship.
