‘All Or Nothing: Juventus’ Trailer Shows Andrea Pirlo Chewing Out His Team

Juventus’ 2020-21 season, Andrea Pirlo’s first and only in charge, was a failure by the club’s own lofty standards.

6 Times Roy Kent Was The F***ing Best

He’s here, he’s there, he’s every fucking where — Roooooyyy Keeennnt. Roy Kent. 

In Season 1 of “Ted Lasso,” there was no doubt Jason Sudeikis’ eponymous character was the star of the show. As Season 2 progressed, a new star emerged: Roy fucking Kent. 

Amazon’s Upcoming “Rooney” Documentary Is No-Holds-Barred Look At The Player And Man

If you were a documentary filmmaker, you couldn’t be handed a much better subject than the life of Wayne Rooney.
