China’s dominance extends to its clean energy sector, where low-carbon sources will provide half of the country's electricity by 2029, and solar and wind power…

‘We Are Not Ready’ – But Are Chelsea Genuine Title Contenders?

wontumionlineSports
Enzo Maresca again played down talk of a Premier League title challenge after his Chelsea side recorded their seventh consecutive win in all competitions against Brentford on Sunday. But is it time to seriously consider Chelsea as genuine title contenders? The mere suggestion of such a turnaround in fortunes in the summer would have been met with incredulity but, after a stunning run of form, it really doesn’t seem so daft anymore. The Blues’ 2-1 win against Brentford on Sunday moved them into second place in the league and to within just two points of leaders Liverpool. In fact, Chelsea will be…

When you drop two of the most high-profile members of your squad, Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho – not just from the team, but the entire travelling party – Ruben Amorim would have known scrutiny would come. Two minutes from time at Manchester City, it seemed Amorim was in for an awkward post-match debrief.

‘I Am Not Good Enough’ – Guardiola Faces Daunting And Major Rebuild

wontumionlineSports
Pep Guardiola says his sleep has suffered during Manchester City’s deepening crisis, so he will not be helped by a nightmarish conclusion to one of the most stunning defeats of his long reign. Guardiola looked agitated, animated and on edge even after City led the Manchester derby through Josko Gvardiol’s 36th-minute header, his reaction to the goal one of almost disdain that it came via a deflected cross as opposed to in his purist style. He sat alone with his eyes closed sipping from a water bottle before the resumption of the second half, then was denied even the respite…

James Returns In Lakers’ Win Against Memphis

wontumionlineSports,
LeBron James scored 18 points as he returned from a two-game absence in the Los Angeles Lakers’ 116-100 win against the Memphis Grizzlies. The 39-year-old missed last Sunday’s match against Portland and Friday’s game against Minnesota because of “personal reasons” and a sore foot. Lakers coach JJ Redick said on Friday that he was unsure when James, the NBA’s all-time leading scorer, would return. However, the Lakers announced 45 minutes before tip-off against the Grizzlies that James was available to start. James displayed little rustiness as he finished with 18 points, eight rebounds and eight assists in 34 minutes. The four-time NBA…
