Controversially high I fancy. France's favourite Kylian Mbappe has arrived and is getting absolutely mobbed, as you might expect. The guests are arriving It's a glitzy ceremony as usual with a lovely red carpet - with a Fiat hatchback parked in the middle of it. Anyway, Robert Lewandowski is here, looking well given that he's currently in rehab for an addiction to scoring goals.
I think sometimes you need that, especially as a young lad because you need to find that consistency in your game.

Do better, everyone. Aleksander Cefarin speaks on racism It is of course easy and probably justified to be cynical about the seriousness of the football authorities about fighting racism. We only have decades of evidence to support that cynicism. So you’ll obviously take the president of UEFA saying they will do more with a pinch of salt, but it’s probably only fair to listen to what he has to say, in an interview with the Daily Mirror’s Darren Lewis, and judge for yourself.

With the hosts slipping down the Serie A standings, there’s obvious pressure on Napoli coach Carlo Ancelotti. The former Bayern boss has not won in his last six league games (D4 L2): in his coaching career, only once has he had a longer winless run in the top five European leagues (eight in 1996/97, with Parma).
