Gabriel Martinelli reveals apology to Conor Bradley as he explains actions after controversial shove
Gabriel Martinelli revealed he messaged Conor Bradley to apologise after shoving him while the Liverpool player was down injured, admitting he did not realise the severity of the injury at the time. The lack of action in either goal has caused Martinelli’s late shove to become one of the main talking points from Arsenal’s 0-0 draw with Liverpool and the Brazilian has come in for some harsh criticism. As Bradley chased a ball, his leg landed awkwardly in the turf and his knee gave way, resulting in an injury that required him to be stretchered off and leave the stadium…
Alfa Romeo has unveiled the first car to come from its Bottegafuorisere bespoke division, a wild Giulia Quadrifoglio with a low-drag bodykit and split rear spoiler. Named Luna Rossa after an Italian sailing team, the new limited-run model – that was unveiled at the Brussels motor show – is pitched as the most extreme Quadrifoglio model yet. Chief among the changes made for the Luna Rossa is the new aerodynamics package. Up front, it gains a pair of canards, while carbonfibre skirts are mounted along its flanks. At the rear is the aggressive wing, inspired by the hydrofoils on the Luna…
This year, over 4,000 exhibitors descended on Las Vegas, Nevada to showcase their wares at CES, and the Engadget team was out in full force. The week started with press conferences from the biggest companies at the show, which were often a flurry of AI buzzwords, vague promises and very little in the way of hard news.More than one company even decided to forgo announcing things during their conferences to make way for more AI chatter, only to publish press releases later quietly admitting that, yes, actually, they did make some consumer technology. It’s appropriate, I guess, that as we’re…

Manchester United legend Roy Keane has revealed who he wants to be Ruben Amorim’s permanent replacement at Old Trafford in the summer. The Red Devils are currently in the process of replacing Amorim, who parted company with the Premier League giants on Monday morning. Amorim‘s position became untenable after he butted heads with the director of football, Jason Wilcox, while he has also had critics over his refusal to adapt and poor performances/results. Man Utd are planning to bring in an interim replacement until the summer, at which point they will appoint a more established permanent successor to oversee a…
Perhaps you like the idea of controlling your home appliances with your voice, but aren’t super keen on a data center processing recordings of you. Fair enough. The trade-off for most smart home conveniences is relinquishing at least some of your privacy. Today at CES, I saw a line of voice-controlled home appliances from Emerson Smart that adjust power and setting via voice commands. But commands are recognized on the devices themselves, not carried through Wi-Fi and processed elsewhere.The huge array of smart plugs, fans, heaters and even air fryers require no app for setup and don’t need access to…

Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai has issued a warning to Premier League leaders Arsenal ahead of Thursday’s match between the two sides. Any meetings between Arsenal and Liverpool this season were expected to be six-pointers in the race for the Premier League title, but this will not be the case on Thursday night. Arsenal have emerged as the clear favourites to win the title this term, but Liverpool are enduring a really disappointing season as they face a fight to qualify for the Champions League rather than retaining their title. Following Man City’s draw against Brighton on Tuesday, Arsenal will move…
