Mauricio Pochettino celebrated his 31st Game in charge of Chelsea with a humiliating 4-2 drubbing at the hands of Wolverhampton Wanderers. It may not sound it, but 31 games is actually a significant milestone for Pochettino as it also happens to be the number of matches afforded to his predecessor, Graham Potter. Potter's time at Chelsea is not remembered fondly and, after Frank Lampard's interim stint, the decision to hire Pochettino was seen as a smart move which just might send the Blues back towards the top of the table. 31 Game s in and things are not exactly going to plan.

Zimbabwe has reported record tobacco sales as the southern African nation reestablishes itself as one of the leading growers in the world HARARE, Zimbabwe -- Zimbabwe has reported record tobacco sales as the southern African nation reestablishes itself as one of the leading growers in the world, and yet the small-scale Black farmers now selling their crop mostly to China are “heavily indebted” and seeing "minimal" benefits, according to an association that represents their interests. Critics say the farmers are not benefitting as they should from Zimbabwe's tobacco boom, largely because of a contract system that locks them into unfavorable loans and prices, often with Chinese companies operating under the state-owned China National Tobacco Corporation, the largest cigarette maker in the world.

Liverpool were a part of Sports broadcasting History when they took on Nottingham Forest in the first ever Premier League match aired on Sky Sports at the start of the 1992/93 season. However, a Teddy Sheringham goal condemned Graeme Souness' side to a 1-0 defeat which set the stage for a disappointing sixth place finish in the new competition's inaugural season. Since then, though, Liverpool have often enjoyed themselves on the opening weekend of the Premier League season and are unbeaten in all their season openers under Jurgen Klopp. Here's a rundown of their Premier League record on the opening day of the season.
