In case you didn’t know… Chelsea played a 4-3-3 under Maurizio Sarri, where Jorginho was at the heart of the action from a deep-lying play maker’s role.

As a service, PlayStation Plus has evolved significantly since its inception during the PS3 era. Back then, it simply was a service that offered a handful of games every month at a fairly decent rate, but at the turn of the generation, Sony took a play out of Microsoft’s book, and linked the PS4’s online capabilities to PS Plus, like Xbox did with Xbox Live in the 360 era. Now in the current generation with the PS5, PS Plus still resembles itself from the PS4 era, though there are some more perks, like the PS Plus Collection of games....

Simply put: Bowman and the No. 88 team spanked the entire NASCAR Cup Series field at Auto Club Speedway in a way no HMS team has done in years.

Now three of the four drivers are inside the top six in the early season points standings....

Benitez admitted this week that he hasn’t spoken to notoriously demanding Blues owner Roman Abramovich for three weeks, sparking suggestions the Spaniard could be in danger of losing his job after Chelsea’s recent poor run.

Two hard-fought victories in London derbies over Tottenham Hotspur and Fulham have given new life to the team’s bid to get a top 4 spot (and its attendant UEFA Champions League place).

It takes all of the games offered through PlayStation Plus in 2021 and then tracks their “real value.” They do this through three columns measuring each game’s lowest price on the PlayStation Store, its lowest all-time price on the PlayStation Store, and its “Lowest Base,” which assumedly means its lowest price without taking temporary discounts into account....
