    Ronaldo told to 'pack it in' instead of joining Messi in an MLS move

    Cristiano Ronaldo has been urged to "pack it in" and retire from professional football following the 2026 World Cup rather than attempting a final career move to the United States.

It was by no means a beautiful goal - goalkeeper Lorenzo Montipo had got a hand on the ball - but it was easily one of the most significant strikes of Lukaku's entire career.

    Chelsea need Palmer now more than ever to save their season

    Even when Chelsea were sweeping up trophies for fun during the first two decades of the 21st century, there was still an element of jeopardy to their seasons.
