Barcelona sack Ronald Koeman in threat to Manchester United's managerial shortlist

Snoop Dogg has confirmed that he now owns the masters to Dr. Dre‘s ‘The Chronic’ among other Death Row albums following his recent acquisition of the iconic record label.It was announced last month that the legendary rapper is now the official owner of Death Row Records, the iconic record label where he started his career 30 years ago.At the time of the acquisition, the full terms of the deal had not been disclosed.

Post Malone has disputed claims made by a songwriter who is suing him over his 2019 hit ‘Circles’.Tyler Armes filed a federal lawsuit in California in April 2020, listing Post (real name Austin Post), Post’s producer Frank Dukes and Universal Music Group as defendants, and claims he is seeking co-writer and co-producer credits, as well as prospective and retroactive royalties and other money owed from the ‘Hollywood’s Bleeding’ track.On the same day, Post filed his own suit, with the rapper asking a New York Federal Judge to rule that Armes has no claim to the song’s copyright and did not participate in writing it.“It is an age-old story in the music business that when a song earns the type of runaway success that ‘Circles’ has garnered, and individuals will come out of the woodwork falsely claim to take credit for the song, and demand unwarranted and unearned windfall profits from the song,” reads Malone’s complaint.In a new court filing (via Rolling Stone), Post claims that Armes did not contribute anything “original” to the song, just “an admittedly extremely commonplace guitar chord progression,” and potentially a “fragment of a guitar melody that Armes claims he sung to Post”. Armes claims he was initially offered five per cent of the song’s royalties for his work on ‘Circles’, but that was removed when he tried to negotiate a bigger cut.Post’s new court documents read: “Armes admitted that his contributions did not even rise to the level of originality, which is also required in addition to the fixation requirement.

Jeremy Clarkson, 61, doesn’t know about cars isn’t worth knowing. However, the former Top Gear host has now admitted he ran into some trouble while test-driving a new supercar with his girlfriend Lisa Hogan last week.The Clarkson’s Farm star encountered several problems as he attempted to drive the Maserati MC20 out to the couple’s local pub for dinner.Jeremy and Lisa struggled at the first hurdle, as they soon discovered they couldn’t actually get out of the vehicle.Writing about the ordeal in his latest column for The Sunday Times, Jeremy penned: “We were still in the pub car park because neither of us could find anything that even remotely resembled a door handle.

He also wrote, saying that Nick “described Israel as a functioning democracy and mapped out the solution as a political will shared by both sides".He concluded that he is thus in a “position of double standard".Nick wrote a response, saying the invasion of Ukraine by Russia is not nearly the same thing as the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict. He said that one is an unprovoked attack, while the other is a deeply complex long-term conflict. He said: “There is little that I can disagree with in your letter."However, the invasion of Ukraine by Russia is simply not the same thing as the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine.“One is a brutal unprovoked attack on one state by another, in the hope of revising the entire security structure of Europe. “The other is a deeply complex clash of two nations that is far from straightforward.”He added, however, both share the fact that they impose great tragedy on those affected by the conflict. Nick said: “What the two conflicts do share is the tragic fate of all innocents who must cower in bomb shelters in fear of their lives. “I sympathise deeply with all such communities wherever – and whoever – they are.”He added that he wouldn’t repeat his view on the Israeli-Palestine conflict, but said that he has done a lot to raise money for schools in the communities.Nick reiterated that the current time is for uniting to give unequivocal support to the Ukrainian people.The vocalist said: “Right now, a catastrophe is unfolding and I stand with all Ukrainians at this horrific moment in history. “I would like nothing more than to play in Kyiv. “I was very much looking forward to our show there. “

Elon Musk has said Starlink will only block Russian news sources at "gunpoint" after claiming governments have been putting the pressure in him to do so as Russian state media shares propaganda about the war in UkraineEarlier this week the Tesla billionaire set up Ukraine with Starlink in efforts to ensure the besieged nation can access the internet and maintain reliable communication as the former Soviet state continues to bomb and launch airstrikes that could cut off or intercept internet signals.Starlink, operated by SpaceX, can provide satellite Internet access to most corners of the word through terminals which work like satellite dishes.However, while Nato and its allies impose sweeping sanctions on Russia and its oligarchs, the 50-year-old has stopped his support of Ukraine short, favouring the preservation of free speech over tackling misinformation amidst Russia's invasion, calling himself a "free speech absolutist" in a recent Twitter post. The SpaceX founder tweeted: "Starlink has been told by some governments (not Ukraine) to block Russian news sources.

Manchester United before joining Spanish giants Real Madrid, and the Portuguese star was known for cutting in from the left to devastating effect.But Ronaldo was asked to become a centre-forward at Juventus, and despite adopting the no.9 role at United during his second stint, he didn't like the idea of being a regular starter in a central role.That's according to Maurizio Sarri, who perhaps got the best season out of Ronaldo while he was at Juevntus, after making the mega-move from Madrid in 2018.But the Italian revealed that Ronaldo refused to play centre-forward, and believes that it may be contributing to his goal drought at United as he is a natural out wide.Sarri was asked by Sky Italia if Ronaldo refused to play as a striker under him at Juventus, and the current Lazio coach said: "Cristiano scored more Serie A goals in his season with me than any other.What is Cristiano Ronaldo's best position at Manchester United?

Let us know in the comments section One fan joked: "Katie Zelem on corners for the Derby tomorrow," in reference to Untied's Premier League clash with City on Sunday afternoon.While another added: "The men’s team have one goal from corners all season, meanwhile Katie Zelem has scored directly from corners 3 times in 2 matches!""While the men are in dire need of a corner kick taker," a third added."She is making scoring from corners a habit, which is weird but also cool.
