Jose Mourinho gave a clear indication that the vacant manager's position at Newcastle United would not appeal to him, saying that taking charge of a club where the objective is to stay in the top half of the table not in his nature. The Magpies are searching for a new manager following the failure to agree a deal with Rafael Benitez, whose three-year spell at the club is set to end when his contract expires on Sunday. Mourinho has been without a job in football since he left Manchester United in December 2018 and was linked with the vacancy at St. James' Park. But in an interview with The Coaches' Voice he gave a clear description of the kind of job he does not want to take on. "The only thing I know is what I don't want," said Mourinho. "What I don't want is crystal clear. I am quite pathalogical in the sense that I have to play to win. Then, if I win or if I don't win, that's my problem and the players and the club and the str...

Speculation around the somewhat mysterious  First Lady  of the United States has run rife since Donald Trump won the presidency in November 2016, and an explosive new book says there’s a very good reason why that is. Rumours of ‘fake Melania’ ,  an extended and largely unexplained hospital stay,  repeated slip ups caught on tape; a new book is claiming they are all symptoms of a sham marriage. The latest book from Michael Wolff - author of  Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House -  cites over one hundred sources, and says the Trumps have a ‘non-marriage’ that is simply rolled out for the cameras.  However the wild claims have not been widely accepted, with the book receiving criticism from both sides of politics. Ryan Lizza wrote for  The Washington Post  that the book contains “factual errors that mar the author’s credibility”. The President hasn’t responded to the new book, but described Wolff’s first book in a tweet as...

Eden Hazard will be considered a legend at Chelsea, who will find it impossible to directly replace the Belgian, according to former Blues striker Didier Drogba. Hazard left Chelsea earlier this month, making a long-awaited move to La Liga giants Real Madrid in a deal that could rise to €140million (£125m/$160m). The 28-year-old departed Stamford Bridge having scored 21 goals across all competitions last season, helping Chelsea to a third-placed Premier League finish and the Europa League title. In total he scored 110 goals in 352 appearances, winning two Premier League titles, one FA Cup, one EFL Cup and two Europa League titles. However, Hazard's departure has come at a difficult time for the Blues, who are currently appealing a transfer ban which would prohibit them from signing players for the next two windows. Christian Pulisic was brought in from Borussia Dortmund in January before being loaned back to the Bundesliga side for the remainder of the campaign. He ...
