50 h. ago Will Arsenal break Chelsea’s record of conceding only 15 goals in a season?

Arsenal are on course to break one of the most impressive records in Premier League historyBy Opta AnalystIn an era when human performance and sports science continue to advance at a remarkable pace, there are very few football records that remain truly untouchable. But Chelsea’s 2004-05 Premier League campaign remains one of the great exceptions. José Mourinho’s side conceded only 15 goals on their way to winning the title, a record that has stood unchallenged for two decades.No team has come close since. Chelsea themselves conceded 22 times the following season and, along with Manchester United in 2007-08 and Liverpool in 2018-19, came closest to the magical 15 number. But even then, those three teams were still seven goals shy. Continue reading...

The record-breaking Oscar winner explains how her new film, A House of Dynamite – starring Idris Elba as the US president – is rooted in her cold war childhood and the urgent threats we all face todayKathryn Bigelow has been thinking about death: hers, and mine, and yours as well. History will always remember her as the first woman to win a best director Oscar, which she did in 2010 for The Hurt Locker.

Bigelow would like you to consider Armageddon.“Someone I know said the bomb for the audience is realising this is possible,” she says. She smiles. “I’m glad if people come away from the movie as concerned as I am.” Continue reading...

9 d. ago On the plane or the sofa? How England’s 2026 World Cup squad is shaping up | Jacob Steinberg

More than half the 26 places appear to be locked down but big names are at risk with qualification secured and the tournament loomingFresh from breaking Gordon Banks’s record for consecutive England clean sheets, Jordan Pickford remains the undisputed pick in goal. A miserly defensive record is a positive for Thomas Tuchel, even if the shutouts have come against poor sides. John Stones, such an elegant centre-back, is back in the team and will start at the World Cup if he stays fit. But who will partner him? Tuchel likes Ezri Konsa, whose versatility also makes him an option at right-back, and Marc Guéhi. Big Dan Burn also looks established despite making his international debut in March. It is more uncertain at left-back but Reece James will play at right-back as long as his body does not let him down. Continue reading...
