ENTERTAINIC SOURCE

Chelsea's first game following the November international break is a big one.
They face reigning Premier League champions Manchester City at the Eithad Stadium a week on Saturday and can move four points clear of Pep Guardiola's side with victory in the day's late kick-off.
Speaking of the Spaniard, he has somewhat of a selection dilemma on his hands ahead of the game.
One player who will miss the game is Bernardo Silva.
The Portugal international is to serve a one-game suspension in relation to social media message about teammate Benjamin Mendy.
Silva was charged by the Football Association last month after he compared Mendy to the character on a packet of Conguitos - a sweet brand available in Spain and Portugal.
A statement via the FA's official website reads : "Bernardo Silva has been suspended for one first team competitive fixture, fined £50,000 and must complete face-to-face education after admitting a breach of FA Rule E3.
"The Manchester City midfielder’s social media activity on 22 September 2019 breached FA Rule E3(1), as it was insulting and/or improper and/or brought the game into disrepute, and constituted an “Aggravated Breach”, which is defined in FA Rule E3(2), as it included reference, whether expressed or implied, to race and/or colour and/or ethnic origin."

WWE: Ronda Rousey Needs To Be Careful With Accidentally Dissing Pro Wrestling

Image
ENTERTAINIC news Ronda Rousey had two excellent WWE Raw Women’s Championship matches in back-to-back nights and does a great job of putting over her opponents in the ring, but she needs to be careful when promoting her own fully legit fighting credentials; she may be inadvertently “exposing” pro wrestling when she kicks down her opponents. The WrestleMania 35 main event between Becky Lynch and Ronda Rousey feels like  WWE ‘s most highly-anticipated match in quite some time. Though Lynch is the must-see wrestler here with the thunderous “Becky! Becky! Becky!” chants she receives on a nightly basis, Rousey has been viewed as the promotion’s biggest mainstream star; it’s star-power she earned by being an Olympic medalist and a UFC Champion. Rousey is quick to remind wrestling fans of her credentials. She did so on Raw when she told Becky that she could kill her with her bare hands, a claim that I doubt many people would refute. The Raw Women’s Champion doubled-down on th...
