The midfielder, who suffered an Achilles tendon injury back in May last year in a friendly against MLS outfit New England Revolution, is set to remain out for longer than what was projected by the player and the club. The England international struck 10 goals last season, including a fabulous hat-trick in the Europa League against BATE Borisov. While a fixed return date was not announced, Loftus-Cheek’s recent social media activity at Cobham and the fact that he was out in the sun jogging suggested we aren’t too far from seeing the midfielder return to action....

Last week, there were huge links connecting the Turkish international to a massive multi-million dollar move to the Chinese Super League .

According to Defensa Central, Chelsea are willing to take their former player back in the summer.

Eden Hazard spent most of his senior career at Chelsea but left them for Real Madrid in 2018. He won the Europe League in his final match for the club before completing his dream move to the Santiago Bernabeu....

The player himself has apparently declared his interest to play for Real Madrid although it’s possible the Belgian international is keen to link up with Lukaku, Courtois and potentially De Bruyne at Stamford Bridge. The future is Belgian at Chelsea, no waffle. A new garden of Eden Lille would like the cash now and to keep Hazard until the end of the season, which doesn’t benefit anyone but themselves....

Pakistan has quite a few i’s to dot and a few t’s to cross as it gears to take on West Indies in the second league match of the 2013 Champions Trophy. Though the team has had a mixed bag of results in the past few months, their preparation for the Champions Trophy has been quite extensive. In their last warm-up game against South Africa, Pakistan won comfortably, restricting South Africa to a mediocre total of 202 runs....

The top two both struck twice in stoppage time, Leeds coming from behind to beat Blackburn 3-2 at Elland Road, while Norwich somehow recovered to draw 3-3 with Nottingham Forest, having been three goals down with 14 minutes left. Jay Rodriguez scored twice as third-placed West Brom recorded a rather calmer 2-0 win over Wigan Athletic to close within three points of Norwich, while Sheffield United defeated promotion rivals Derby County 3-1 on a Boxing Day card where all 24 teams were in action....

While competitive is also being negatively impacted by the slow updates for the game, there are other issues with the mode. Considering that competitive is the main reason so many players engage with Overwatch 2, this is problematic, as a flawed ranked play could push hardcore players away from the title. By giving the community a reason to keep playing, adjusting certain systems, and fixing key flaws, competitive could be made far more enjoyable than it is in its current form....

The demonstrations have now entered their eighth day and have been taking place in cities and towns across the country, including the capital Bogota and Cali, the third largest city. Protests have also taken place in the northern cities of Bucaramanga and Medellín.

It has been a time of mourning and rebuilding for Chapecoense since a plane carrying the Brazilian squad, technical commission and a number of journalists for the first leg of the Copa Sudamericana final against Atletico Nacional crashed en route to Medellin two days before the match was due to take place, killing 71 people on board, in November. The latest for all of the top divisions Ruschel was one of three players to survive the crash – along with Neto and Jackson Follman....

Neto, 31, was one of just six survivors from the plane crash which killed 71 people on its way to Medellin for the first leg of the Copa Sudamericana final last month. As he left hospital, the Brazilian said he wanted to eventually feature for Chapecoense once more. “I came here because I have to thank those who fight with me. It is impossible not to speak of those who have left,” Neto said....

At a jammed press conference in November of 1995, with his inspiring memoir My American Journey riding high on national bestseller lists, the charismatic four-star general made a long-awaited announcement: that he had registered as a Republican and planned to back the GOP, but declined to become a candidate himself. “I believe I can help the party of Lincoln move once again close to the spirit of Lincoln,” Powell pledged....

The Ferrari driver, who has won the last two races, took his fifth pole of 2019 and third in succession with a tremendous lap of one minute and 36.217 seconds in the final moments of qualifying.

Thank you, Charlie Sheen, for always finding a way to remain relevant. McCoy left a $0.20 tip after he ate at a burger joint in Philadelphia on Monday with a group of people. The picture of McCoy’s receipt ended up on the internet and the rest is history. Now, the “Anger Management” star is picking up where McCoy left off. To be fair, Sheen appears to have the right motives by making up for the “tip debacle....

The league has pulled the 2017 NBA All-Star Game away from Charlotte, though it hopes to reschedule it in the city for 2019. MORE: When sports and politics clash The NBA All-Star Game, set to be played Feb. 19, is the latest event to be either moved or canceled as a result of the state’s controversial “bathroom law.” Commissioner Adam Silver had expressed concern with the law but gave North Carolina Gov....

Moments before, Busch ended Elliott’s chance at a possible first-place finish when he clipped the rear left bumper of Elliott’s No. 9 car and sent him spinning into the inside wall. Elliott was in second place, just behind Denny Hamlin, when Busch “made a mistake and misjudged the gap.” The Toyota 500 ended eight laps later because of rain. Busch finished second, Elliott 38th. His middle-finger salute drew lots of attention, but Elliott said Friday he has no regrets....

This extends to JRPGs. If someone wants to own Shin Megami Tensei 5, Dragon Quest 11 S, or Xenoblade Chronicles 2, they should be prepared to spend over $40. For those shopping on a budget, they need to take a look at the used games scene, as there are a couple of second-hand JRPG Switch games that are great and (relatively) cheap. Akiba’s Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed The definition of an acquired taste, Akiba’s Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed is a game that caters to the tiniest of niche audiences....

Behind the guard desk was a rather optimistically large board with plastic visitors’ cards (color-coded for media, army, police, officials and VIPs) in neatly slotted rows and columns, given out after visitors handed over their ID cards as hostages. It was middle of the morning on a busy Thursday, rush hour for visiting the high and mighty in the 11-story edifice behind the annex, and there were only three other visitors in play....

We are a football club. Every team has its own ups and downs. No one can expect us to perform the same level every game. We cannot win every game. We cannot score eight goals every game. We cannot keep clean sheets every game. We cannot win every trophy. What we have is a certain set of players who are trying to do their best every game. Those lads deserve our support....
