Jose Mourinho loses respect for Chelsea dressing room

Jose Mourinho has branded claims that he has lost the respect of the Chelsea dressing room as an "absolute disgrace".

The Premier League champions sit 16th in the Premier League after eight games and their performances have piled the pressure on the former Real Madrid coach.

Golden Horn denies Treve Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe hat-trick

Epsom Derby winner Golden Horn, ridden by Frankie Dettori, denied French filly Treve an historic third Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe with victory at Longchamp.

Dettori, winning the race for the fourth time, pulled Golden Horn wide early in the race before slotting in behind the leader.

They were well positioned before moving clear of Flintshire and New Bay, who finished second and third respectively.

Treve finished fast but had to be content with fourth.

Arsenal to up game against United

Per Mertesacker has challenged Arsenal to show more aggression as they look to recover from their latest European flop in Sunday’s showdown with Premier League leaders Manchester United.

Arsene Wenger’s side suffered an embarrassing 3-2 home defeat against Olympiakos in midweek that left them in severe danger of missing out on a place in the Champions League knock-out stages for the first time in 16 years.

Adding to the Gunners’ humiliation was the horrendous blunder from goalkeeper David Ospina, who dropped a corner into his own net to gift the Greeks their second goal and in the process triggered a barrage of criticism for Wenger for his decision to rest regular first choice Petr Cech.
