To paraphrase the great Homer Simpson, it is not only easy to criticise, but fun, too. It is quite simple to sit and judge from this ivory tower, but hey, that's football after all, merely a game of opinions. Being a Premier League manager must be one of the loneliest gigs in the world, particularly when results are wayward and your job security is the subject of international speculation.

Luis Suarez rolled back the years with a sublime volley to seal a 2-0 victory for Inter Miami against Real Salt Lake. The veteran striker combined with Rodrigo De Paul to secure three points for the Herons.

Chelsea have successfully avoided a staggering £24 million compensation payout following the dismissal of Liam Rosenior after just 104 days at the helm.

Newcastle's season has unravelled; with five Premier League games remaining and in the thick of a dire run of form, the Magpies find themselves closer to the bottom three than they are to the Champions League places, and their hopes of securing any form of European football are fading fast. To make matters worse, their struggles are unfolding against the backdrop of significant upheaval behind the scenes as pressure mounts on head coach Eddie Howe.

Almost every footballer's career has a sliding doors moment, and Georgia Stanway's came in the summer of 2022. It's remarkable to think now, given her role in the England team and her status as one of the best midfielders in the game, but as that year's European Championship approached, Stanway was not in Sarina Wiegman’s starting XI.

Lamine Yamal suffered a serious injury during Barcelona’s league match against Celta Vigo, and the worst-case scenario now appears likely.

For much of Wednesday night, it looked like Inter Miami would drop points in Utah, but two of the club's biggest names stepped up with world-class finishes.

A Lamine Yamal penalty ensured Barcelona saw off a stubborn Celta Vigo side on Wednesday night to stretch their lead over Real Madrid at the top of La Liga to nine points. However, the 1-0 victory at Spotify Camp Nou came at a cost, as the wonderkid winger was forced off injured straight after converting the winner from the spot in the first half.

Erling Haaland scored the only goal as an underwhelming Manchester City beat Burnley 1-0 to move top of the Premier League and relegate the Clarets in the process.

If we're being brutally honest, it always felt like a case of not if, but when the axe would fall on Liam Rosenior after he was named as the surprise successor to the sacked Enzo Maresca in January. A positive start in the Stamford Bridge dugout now feels like a distant memory, with a historically-bad run of form accelerating his downfall. Having overseen a fifth league defeat in a row, Rosenior has deservedly been relieved of his duties - but he was simply a symptom of the Blues wider, deeper problems.

Paul Pogba has opened up on his complex relationship with Jose Mourinho during their time together at Manchester United, describing the Portuguese manager as a "really funny" character despite their public clashes. The French midfielder returned to Old Trafford in a then-world record deal to work under Mourinho in 2016, but their partnership eventually soured before the manager's dismissal two years later.

Real Madrid head coach Alvaro Arbeloa has jumped to the defence of Vinicius Junior after the Brazilian forward successfully navigated a hostile atmosphere at the Bernabeu to score the winning goal against Alaves in La Liga on Tuesday.

Chelsea have sacked Liam Rosenior fewer than four months after the Englishman was appointed as their head coach. The 41-year-old has overseen a historically bad run of form, culminating in Tuesday night's limp 3-0 defeat at Brighton that stretched their Premier League losing streak to five games.
