Usain Bolt claims losing his unbeatable tag in his final race does not tarnish his Forever Fastest legacy. The Jamaican added a first bronze medal to his golden collection when he joined champion Justin Gatlin and Christian Coleman on the 100 metres podium. He said he had no regrets at not retiring after completing his hat-trick of Olympic titles in Rio last summer. “I’ve proved to the world I’m one of the greatest athletes,” said Usain Bolt . “This doesn’t change anything. “I lost to a great competitor and a young kid who is coming up and is very talented. “No regrets, I’ve…

The Community Shield had not even kicked-off on Sunday, and already Arsene Wenger’s side were being mocked. The squad lists on the back of the matchday programme showed a laughably long stream of Arsenal players compared to a much more compact number for their opponents Chelsea. The lists were slightly misleading as a few of the Arsenal players are youngsters who will not feature much for the first team, but nonetheless it underlined how bloated Arsene Wenger’s squad has become. The manager has been wary of selling fringe players in the last couple for years, but even he admitted after the match that…

The undercard for Floyd Mayweather’s eagerly anticipated showdown with Conor McGregor on August 26 is beginning to take shape with Gervonta Davis set to star. The Floyd Mayweather and Conor Mcgregor main event is expected to become the first billion dollar fight in the history of sport, and so it was no surprise when every even remotely successful boxer and mixed martial artist began talking up their chances of featuring. A number of ludicrous crossover bouts were quickly suggested – from a heavyweight bout between Anthony Joshua and Stipe Miocic, to a long-awaited fight between Roy Jones Jr and Anderson Silva – before Mayweather…

Chelsea Captain, Gary Cahill says he and the chelsea squad are hurt by their Community Shield defeat to Arsenal but believes his side will bounce back as they prepare to begin their title defence next weekend. The Premier League champions lost on penalties in the annual curtain-raiser at Wembley as the Gunners rallied from going behind to Victor Moses’ opener with new signing Sead Kolasinac equalising before they triumphed on spot kicks. Cahill, now club captain following the departure of John Terry at the end of last season, is disappointed to have started in such a manner but says his side have what it takes to put…

Brazilian star defender, Dani Alves has revealed that it was Neymar who persuaded him to reject Manchester City for Paris Saint-Germain, weeks before the forward’s world-record move from Barcelona went ahead. The 34-year-old left Juventus on a free this summer and expressed an interest in reuniting with former boss Pep Guardiola at City before ending up at the Parc des Princes instead, after PSG offered him £230,000-a-week – double what City were offering. Alves joined on 12th July, nearly a month before Neymar’s £200m move was confirmed, and he admitted it was his Brazilian teammate who was one of the deciding factors – thus suggesting the 25-year-old’s move had been in the…

Michy Batshuayi has refuted any suggestion that he enjoyed Alvaro Morata’s penalty miss after television footage of the striker appeared to show him laughing during Chelsea’s shootout defeat. Arsenal lifted the first trophy of the season after the Community Shield was decided on penalties. The Belgian started the game as Antonio Conte chose to leave his £60m summer signing, Alvaro Morata, on the bench. The match was decided on penalties after Sead Kolasinac headed in Arsenal’s equaliser after Victor Moses had put Chelsea in front in the 46th minute. Trailing 2-1 in the subsequent shootout, Thibaut Courtois and Alvaro Morata both missed their…

We all know that Cristiano Ronaldo doesn’t take failure or criticism well.

Manchester United legend, Wayne Rooney does not think any player in the current squad is capable of breaking his goalscoring record.

Jurgen Klopp appears to have finally ended any lingering interest in Virgil van Dijk insisting he’s more than happy with the centre backs already in his squad. Southampton accused Liverpool of making an illegal approach for the Dutchman earlier this summer which saw the Reds immediately drop their interest and issue an official apology. Despite that Van Dijk has gone on to reiterate his desire to leave the club with Liverpool understood to still be his preferred destination. But with the transfer window set to close in three weeks’ time Klopp appears to have drawn a line under the whole saga. “Look out there and tell me five that…
