She has become one of Hollywood’s most celebrated stars, known for her striking looks as well as her acting chops and varied roles. But despite topping lists of the most beautiful women in the world, fashion commentators have bemoaned many of Margot Robbie’s red carpet looks – saying her stylist is missing the mark with ‘ill-fitting’ and ‘awkward’ dresses. But now a wild theory is doing the rounds on Twitter that the 32-year-old is deliberately dressing badly to distract from her beauty, which in turn encourages people to take her more seriously as an actress. Discussing her latest look – a custom-made version…

Julian Alvarez is making a more compelling case to start regularly for Manchester City with his cameo appearances One-nil to the champions. Neither of these teams will define the success of their season by the FA Cup, but if the league leaders came away without suffering too many blows from another defeat at the Etihad then City will take every victory they get. A curled effort from Nathan Ake was enough to separate the teams on a night of low quality when the Premier League champions just about did enough to suggest the pretenders to their crown still have a way to go. As…
From Pep Guardiola there was a small fist pump at the end, a handshake with his friend and rival Mikel Arteta and then he was off down the tunnel. That, in essence, is what satisfaction looks like. Manchester City will play better than this over the remainder of the season. They will have to if they are to win anything. But Guardiola is currently a manager trying to ease his team in to better form. He is trying to help them find the confidence without which nothing of note can ever be achieved. So this is why this victory was…
There is always a peculiar relationship between mentor and protege, as if the stakes become even higher than normal whenever they duel. Who can forget the tactical work Jose Mourinho put in as Chelsea manager to defeat Liverpool in 2014 and ensure his former colleague Brendan Rodgers did not win the Premier League title. Now good friends Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta are in direct competition to add an extra dimension to the fascinating title race between Manchester City and Arsenal. City won the FA Cup ‘warm-up’ by the narrowest of 1-0 margins on Friday, with a big Premier League double-header to come, the first at the…
Naby Keïta’s Brighton performance may have raised both a question and a possible solution for Jürgen Klopp in order to fix his midfield issues this season at Anfield. Jürgen Klopp’s midfield problems have been as persistent this season as an achy tooth. And the more it refuses to go away, the more the cavity in Liverpool’s midfield grows. Solutions are hard to come by, but it seems like Liverpool is not going to go to the doctors anytime soon in the January transfer window, but rather wait for surgery in the summer. That means Klopp will have to solve the club’s problems…
Brighton & Hove Albion came from behind to end Liverpool’s FA Cup title defence with a 2-1 win over the holders in the fourth round at the Amex Stadium. Without Moises Caicedo as the transfer saga surrounding the Ecuadorian midfielder threatened to derail the Seagulls’ preparations, Lewis Dunk’s fortunate goal and a sublime last-gasp volley from Kaoru Mitoma sealed the hosts’ second win in the space of two weeks over a regressing Reds side, who took the lead through Harvey Elliott in the first half. Frenetic was a fitting description for the opening exchanges, with both Brighton and Liverpool getting forward at every opportunity, and there were no fewer than two…
Andy Robertson admitted Liverpool are getting worse as their dreadful season continued with a stoppage-time defeat at Brighton in the FA Cup. Kaoru Mitoma scored a sensational late winner as Albion came from behind to beat the holders 2-1 and reach the fifth round. Harvey Elliott had put Liverpool in front, only for Brighton to equalise when Lewis Dunk diverted Tariq Lamptey’s long-range shot in. It means Liverpool have won only one of six games in 2023 and Robertson said: ‘This season has been nowhere near good enough. At the start of the year we wanted a fresh start but that hasn’t…

Todd Boehly is personally driving Chelsea’s last-ditch attempt to sign Enzo Fernandez as he fears rival clubs will launch summer moves for the World Cup winner. It was reported on Sunday that Chelsea had revived their interest in Fernandez and were preparing a new offer to present to Portuguese side Benfica. The Premier League club, who have spent more than £400m on new signings since Boehly took over, were strongly linked with a move for Fernandez earlier in the window but talks broke down. Benfica were adamant Fernandez was not for sale and their stance has not changed despite Chelsea’s willingness to spend around 120m euros and even…
Having left Manchester United under a cloud, it’s been claimed Cristiano Ronaldo wants to reunite and say a proper goodbye to his closest pals at his former club Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly invited four of his former Manchester United team-mates to watch him play in Saudi Arabia. The 37-year-old never got to say a proper goodbye to the Red Devils following his bombshell interview with Piers Morgan, which resulted in his contract being mutually terminated, as he was at the World Cup with Portugal at the time. He’s now settled into his new life in the Middle East with Al-Nassr – and he wants some…
Manchester United head coach Erik ten Hag has hailed Casemiro’s huge impact at the club since his arrival from Real Madrid during the summer transfer window. The Red Devils spent much of the summer market chasing Frenkie de Jong before ultimately being forced to admit defeat in their pursuit of the Barcelona midfielder. The club switched their attention to Casemiro and were able to sign the Brazil international from Real Madrid despite the midfielder still being a key player for the Spanish and European champions. Casemiro had to bide his time before cementing his spot in the first XI, but the 30-year-old has now made 28…
Manchester United head coach Erik ten Hag has said that he is pleased with Antony’s recent “progress” but will continue to “challenge” the Brazil international to improve. The 22-year-old has been a regular for the Red Devils since his arrival from Ajax over the summer, making 21 appearances in all competitions, contributing five goals and one assist in the process. Antony’s recent performances have been under the microscope, with the attacker’s end product called into question by a number of critics. However, the forward came up with his first assist of the campaign against Reading in the FA Cup on Saturday evening, with the…
