Kroos called the Saudi Pro League a 'strange phenomenon' that no one knew before Ronaldo joined Al-Nassr in December 2022, saying it would fade without him after drawing huge global viewership from 40 million to over 150 million.

Saudi fans counter with Al-Hilal's five trophies, big investments, and the national team's past successes, insisting the league stands on more than one player.

In Chelsea's 3-1 victory at Molineux on February 7, the Premier League's Key Match Incidents panel decided by a 3-2 vote that a 49th-minute challenge on Joao Pedro warranted a third penalty, as Sa's extended leg made clear contact. Yet they unanimously backed VAR's non-intervention, since it didn't meet the 'clear and obvious error' bar for overturning the on-field call, and no red card was needed due to lack of force. Pedro had already earned two first-half penalties converted by Cole Palmer for his hat-trick, helping Chelsea extend their streak to four under Liam Rosenior and rise to fifth with 44 points from 26 games. Fans aired confusion over the VAR threshold, fueling jokes about a near 'penalty hat-trick' and ongoing referee debates.

Key Takeaway

Joao Pedro leapt for a high ball, but Wolves keeper Jose Sa's raised boot caught his thigh— a moment the panel later deemed penalty-worthy.

Critics pointed out soccer's rules under FIFA Law 12 justified the call on Modric, while others mocked the outrage as ignorance of the game's nuances. Modric, the 40-year-old Croatian star thriving at Milan post-Real Madrid, even memed his classic Italian hand gesture afterward.

The Justice Department released over 3.5 million pages from an exhaustive FBI investigation into Epstein's homes, records, and victim interviews, confirming he abused at least 35 minors through payments for sexualized massages.

Brentford owner Matthew Benham's data-driven approach builds up inexperienced managers like Frank, who promoted the club in 2021 on tight budgets before leaving for Spurs in a £6.7m deal last June. Eight months later, on February 11, Tottenham fired him with the team in 16th place, five points from relegation. Meanwhile, set-piece coach Keith Andrews, with no prior senior experience, has Brentford in seventh after 25 games, chasing their best-ever finish under the same analytics model that scouts undervalued talent and sticks to a fixed philosophy.

Key Takeaway

Thomas Frank guided Brentford to Premier League stability before jumping to Tottenham—only to get the boot after eight tough months. A fan's video highlights how the Bees' system keeps thriving no matter who sits on the bench.
