Erik ten Hag’s side are not going to be competing in next season’s Champions League because of a real lack of consistency, and it feels like a real turnover in personnel is needed to deliver the change the Dutchman has continually called for.
First though, there’s the small matter of beating in-form Crystal Palace, who picked up results just when they needed them to pull away from the relegation zone.

Inter Miami boss Gerardo “Tata” Martino wasn’t surprised by Lionel Messi’s record-breaking performance against New York Red Bulls, telling reporters post-match that the eight time Ballon d’Or winner “always does something new”.
Messi set a new MLS record for most goal contributions and assists in a single game to help Miami come from a goal behind to win 6-2 at Chase Stadium.
First, Messi laid the ball off for Matias Rojas to smash home from long range, before scoring the go-ahead goal himself as Miami stole the ball deep in Red Bulls territory.

Stephen A. Smith and former Big League pitcher Jonathan Papelbon have been taking shots at each other ever since Smith made some comments about Los Angeles Angels star Mike Trout’s injury issues.
Papelbon responded, and now, like a verbal tennis match, the ball is back in Stephen A.’s court.
While Trout’s injury was the catalyst for Smith’s initial comments, they took aim at the frequency of injuries in Major League Baseball and implied that it doesn’t require the level of physical fitness that sports like football or combat sports do.

Jim Montgomery isn’t a Jack Adams award finalist, but he pulled one big-brain coaching move ahead of the Boston Bruins Game 7 matchup with the Toronto Maple Leafs by calling out underperforming star David Pastrnak.
“Pasta needs to step up,” he said.
That decision paid off.
The Bruins were fighting to not become the first team in NHL, MLB, and NBA history to blow a 3-1 series lead in back-to-back postseasons in the final game of the opening-round tilt between the Original Six teams.

Canelo Alvarez retained his undisputed super middleweight championship with a unanimous decision win against Jaime Munguia on Saturday night in Las Vegas. The judges scored it 115-113, 117-110 and 116-111 for the Mexican star, who improved to 61-2-2.
