2 w. ago Champions League review: PSG’s young guns, Valverde’s discontent and Qarabag shine

There was a compelling clash of heavyweights in Catalonia, some unhappy rumblings at Real and a legend of Azerbaijani football roared• The viewers. Barcelona v Paris Saint-Germain was the final many wanted last season. Wednesday’s group-stage meeting showed why. The fixture did not disappoint, even if, with red tape delaying the opening of the renovated Camp Nou, it was played in the less atmospheric Lluís Companys Stadium. Luis Enrique’s young Parisians staged a comeback in Catalonia, thanks to their coach’s expert use of his squad. Senny Mayulu, 19, upstaged Lamine Yamal by scoring the equaliser – Wednesday was the first match this season Yamal had failed to either score or contribute to a goal. Instead, the resurgent Marcus Rashford set up Ferran Torres’s opener for Barça. PSG were shorn of Ousmane Dembélé, Désiré Doué and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, the forward line that claimed last season’s crown. No matter: 23-year-old Bradley Barcola stepped up as the senior forward and ravaged H...

2 w. ago Spurs head past the Arctic Circle in search of added creativity

Thomas Frank says ‘the right signs are there’Plays down role of Bodø/Glimt’s artificial pitchNo game is an island; every game is inevitably coloured by what has gone before.

Back then, the Glimt full-back Fredrik Sjøvold was dismissive of Tottenham’s pressing, which clearly riled Ange Postecoglou. Continue reading...

3 w. ago The Guide #210: Is One Battle After Another finally Paul Thomas Anderson’s Oscars moment?

In this week’s newsletter: The latest from the American virtuoso director is a big, swing-for-the-fences hit that looks certain to be an awards season contenderTruly, it is a hallowed date for cinephiles, Letterboxd addicts, film bros and people who will only watch movies in 70mm. Yes, happy One Battle After Another release day to all who celebrate.For card-carrying members of the tribe (and I’m absolutely one of them), the arrival of a new Paul Thomas Anderson film is an event equal in magnitude to Christmas Day meets the World Cup final meets McDonald’s bringing back the McRib. PTA – as the heads call him – may not be the most famous director of his age (Spielberg, Cameron, Scorsese, Nolan and even namesake Wes Anderson are more recognisable to the average filmgoer), but he is surely the most adored among his fans, a film-maker incapable of making a bad film.
