I started by retroactively listing all the movies I’d seen since 1950, my memory aided by annual hardback anthologies called Screen World, which were compiled by my favorite uncle, Daniel Blum. These were my sacred texts. The first entry is “Cinderella” (Very Good). At the top of the page, displayed like pennants of college football teams, were my favorite movies of all (12 years’) time: “Giant,” “Stalag 17,” “High Noon,” “Picnic,” “The Bridge on the River Kwai,” “Carmen Jones....

Speaking to Sky Sports, David Beckham said, “He has got a history of working with young players, bringing players through academy systems at places like Ajax.

Though well-intentioned, the French DJ’s remix of Martin Luther King Jr’s “I Have a Dream” speech is being mocked online.

Eyebrows were raised when Antonio Conte brought the Brazilian back to Stamford Bridge for a second spell in the summer of 2016.

David Luiz: Winning PL an obsession Luiz has, however, thrived as part of a 3-4-3 system and considers himself to be a better player at the age of 30 than he was first time around....

As a United fan, I totally agree. David Moyes is no Alex Ferguson. But, neither is Jose Mourinho. Nor is Pep Guardiola. No one is. Sir Alex Ferguson was one of a kind, an aberration, a freak of nature, who can’t be and won’t be replicated, end of story. So when so called United fans abuse and mock David Moyes , they should keep this in mind and give him the time and patience which allowed Sir Alex to become the colossus that he was....

Developer Sony Bend is responsible for some of the most memorable PlayStation exclusives over the years, including the original Syphon Filter series on the PS1 and Uncharted: Golden Abyss for the PS Vita. So even with a trust team working on it, and being a member of the prestigious PS4 exclusive lineup, Days Gone unfortunately had an uphill battle against it from the very beginning.

Rooney has struggled for game time under Jose Mourinho in the 2016-17 campaign although he did start, and score, in the 2-0 win over Burnley.
