Today’s final Luks like the last-chance saloon, Rom
IF ever there was a one-off game for Romelu Lukaku to prove, if selected, that he has what it takes to make his Chelsea return succeed, it’s today’s Carabao Cup Final against
Liverpool.
Because, if he can’t get up for a showpiece clash against Virgil van Dijk
(right) with a trophy at stake, then his time at
Stamford Bridge really is done.
PHIL MICKELSON probably isn’t your cup of tea – nor is he mine.
But before we all stick the boot in about the fact he took the Saudi riyal on one hand, while branding them ‘scary mother ****** s’ on the other, we should perhaps all ask ourselves one question.
Which is, if a Saudi company were to offer you a five-figure sum, let alone seven or eight-figure one, for a few hours’ work, would you take it, or tell them, ‘Thanks, but no thanks’ in protest at the country’s regime?
Mickelson (above) won’t be hit by the rising cost of living as much as the rest of us, but he should not be held to different standards.
DAVID MOYES deserves great credit for the job he has done in turning West Ham into Champions League challengers.
But, given Wolves could move ahead of the Irons today with a game in hand in the race to Europe, it’s only right that boss Bruno Lage (right) is handed the same plaudits for the job he is doing at Molineux.
