The many races in the Premier League took several new twists and turns this weekend. There were huge results which impacted the fights for the title and Champions League places as well as the relegation battle. Here are your ten best players from Gameweek 28, ranked. 10. David Datro Fofana (Burnley) Fofana silenced London Stadium / Vince Mignott/MB Media/GettyImages The glass-half-full situation for Chelsea is it appears one of their many, many young talents might actually be of Premier League quality. The glass-half-empty side is he's currently not at the club. Burnley threw away a precious two-goal lead away at West Ham and left London Stadium with only a point, but their opening goal was a beauty that will live long in the memory. Having sidestepped away from two West Ham defenders, he let fly from 25 yards and sent a high-arcing shot right into the top corner. 9.

Honda was the only brand that failed to win a MotoGP race in 2022, finishing last in the world constructors' standings. The factory team, traditionally considered the paddock's biggest superpower, finished no higher than ninth out of 12 places in the teams' rankings. Meanwhile, the best-placed Honda rider in the championship was Marc Marquez in 13th, and he only scored in 10 of the 20 grands prix. Injuries that continued to plague him meant he missed eight races. Honda's negative performance last year triggered a profound restructuring for 2023 both in its rider ranks, with the arrival of Joan Mir to the factory squad and Alex Rins to the satellite LCR structure, and at its technical level. Arguably the most interesting development is the hiring of Ken Kawauchi as the new technical manager. He replaces Takeo Yokoyama, who will now be in charge of supervising the engineering staff that Honda has in Japan. Source: https://thefoxposts.com/the-othe...
Former Arsenal forward Marc Overmars has suffered 'irreparable damage' to his heart after suffering a cardiac arrest last month, according to reports in the Netherlands. The Dutchman was hospitalised at the end of 2022 with what Royal Antwerp, Overmars' employers, claimed was a 'mild stroke'. But De Telegraaf report that Overmars' condition is significantly worst than first feared, as part of his heart muscle is no longer working as it should, and that the ability to pump blood around Overmars' body is understood to have been reduced by 70% compared to normal capacity. It's unclear at this stage whether Overmars will recover, though he was recently quoted by Dutch media that he needed to 'take it easy and move forward one step at a time'. Overmars is well known to Football fans not only in the Netherlands, but also because of his stints as a player in England and Spain. He burst onto the scene during the mid-1990s after Louis van Gaal signed hi...
