Historically it’s been a little and large striker combination that has worked to devastating effect up front in football.

There’s an old saying that suggests you never see a thin butcher. That's an unfair stereotype to some of the hardest grafters in the food industry.

At first glance Diego Forlan's career at Manchester United is little to write home about - 17 goals in 97 appearances would be seen as impressive for a defender but for a striker it is far from palatable.

However, it has done little to calm the rumours linking him with a lucrative move away from the club.While PSG have repeatedly denied speculation connecting the World Cup winner with a move away, Mbappe’s relationship with the club has been described as ‘totally broken’ in recent weeks.

Dancing with the Stars began its 31st season Monday in the most peculiar manner: by asking viewers to click a watch button on Disney+ at exactly 5 p.m./8 p.m. “Tune” in any earlier and you’ll get a reminder — NO, its at 8 p.m. ET, pal! Come back when it’s time. This is the new reality for dance fans accustomed to watching their favorite competition show that used to be on ABC.

Emily Longeretta The star-studded 31st season of “Dancing With the Stars” has arrived. For the first time, the show moved from ABC to Disney+, which meant two hours of live entertainment — and no commercial breaks. The broadcast two-hour telecast equals about 86 minutes, so the producers were tasked with finding a way to fill 34 more minutes.

Michael Schneider Variety Editor at Large As “Dancing With the Stars” moves from ABC to Disney+ on Monday, viewers will notice several major changes to the competition series as it makes a historic switch to streaming for Season 31 — most notably, there will be a lot more show than they’re used to. That’s because Disney+ is commercial-free, which means producers have to fill all two hours without any time-outs. “Job one, the first thing, is that there are no longer ad breaks,” says executive producer Conrad Green. “And a lot of other decisions spun out from that. We’ve got up to two hours on the nose to fill, rather than a commercial version of two hours. And that’s almost a third more material that you’ve got to find for the show.”
