United ended their nine-match winless run in midweek after a superb comeback win against Roma in the Champions League.

I think if he can get that win, I think everyone will think this might be the few stepping stones for them to get into better form. ‘But everyone knows what a defeat [in] the last game before an international break could do.

Democrats’ success was helped by popular anger over tech, AI and the super rich – life for billionaires could become much more difficult The photo of Silicon Valley centi-billionaires at Donald Trump’s inauguration – Musk, Bezos, and Zuckerberg, front row and side by side – now looks like a hitlist for a blue Congress hellbent on making life difficult for billionaires. The picture symbolized at the time the bending of the knee by the richest men in the world to its most powerful, a symbiosis of the ultra-rich.
