Arsenal players want to know about Klopp: Ozil reveals ex-Dortmund boss (currently out of a job) is a hot topic at the Emirates
Jurgen Klopp may be more popular to take over the manager's job at Arsenal than we think, according to German newspaper Bild. Following an interview with Gunners midfielder Mesut Ozil, it would appear the in-demand former Borussia Dortmund coach is a hot topic of conversation among the Arsenal players. And German international Ozil, who bagged a hat-trick of assists for his country in the 7-0 thrashing of Gibraltar on Saturday, told how some of his colleagues back in north London have become increasingly interested about the animated manager.

Fabricio Werdum of Brazil defeated a rusty Cain Velasquez by tap-out in the third round to become the undisputed heavyweight champion at UFC 188 on Saturday night. With 2:13 left in the third round, Werdum (20-5-1) took down Velasquez (13-2), who was fighting for the first time in 20 months after suffering injuries in his shoulder and knee.

Copa collapse! Aguero and Messi put Argentina on easy street but Martino's men squander two-goal lead with late leveller
MARTIN DOMIN IN LA SERENA: Lucas Barrios snatched a draw for unfancied Paraguay with a 90th minute finish to stun the star-studded Argentina in their opening Copa America match. Sergio Aguero and Lionel Messi netted for the World Cup finalists in the first half as all seemed to be going to script. But Paraguay had other ideas, scoring first through Nelson Valdez on the hour mark and Barrios in the 90th minute for the surprise result.
Come to Juventus! Buffon urges Atletico striker Manzukic to snub Man United and head to Italy
CONTINENTAL BREAKFAST: Despite being left with 10 stitches after a clash with Mario Mandzukic, Gianluigi Buffon still had time to try and convince the Croatia striker to come to Juventus. The prolific Atletico Madrid forward scored the opening goal in Croatia's 1-1 with Italy in Friday's Euro 2016 Group H qualifier - where Buffon's brave attempted save came at the cost of an injury that will keep him out of Tuesday's friendly with Portugal.
So who's the real Liverpool No 9: Rush or Fowler? Anfield legends will wear iconic shirt in charity match against Real Madrid

Despite struggles at United, Di Maria's spark will catch once more... and here's why Van Gaal needs to keep The Noodle on the menu
RIK SHARMA: Argentina manager Tata Martino stated before the Copa America he would keep faith in Angel di Maria, despite his poor Manchester United form. And the winger showed enough against Paraguay to encourage Louis van Gaal to do the same. True to his word, Martino played the winger on the left of a three-pronged attack in his country's 2-2 draw with Paraguay, alongside Sergio Aguero and Lionel Messi. Even though in the second half of last season United's Dutch coach preferred to use Ashley Young - with Di Maria reduced to the odd cameo role - if you apply the old adage 'form is temporary, class is permanent,' the Argentine wins every time.

BRYAN ROBSON: Rooney is one of the best players England has ever produced... it's about time other players met his standards
EXCLUSIVE: When Wayne Rooney finishes his career in years to come we will regard him as one of the best players England ever produced. The challenge for the England players around him is to follow in his footsteps. We have had Steven Gerrard, we've had some good defenders but Wayne is the one world-class player we have at the moment. He stands out. There's a lot of talk about the talent and potential of others but really it's time for Raheem Sterling, Jack Wilshere, Theo Walcott and the rest to step up. They need to take responsibility for who they are and what they can become and prove themselves on this stage.

Cristiano Ronaldo completed his third straight hat-trick in as many games for club and country as Portugal came from behind to defeat Armenia in the Euro 2016 Group I qualifier in Yerevan. Armenia took the lead when Brazilian-born Marcos Pizzelli unleashed an unstoppable free-kick from 35 yards which flew past Rui Patricio and in off the underside of the crossbar after 14 minutes. The hosts' lead lasted less than quarter of an hour as Ronaldo calmly sent goalkeeper Roman Berezovski the wrong way after Joao Moutinho had been brought down inside the box by Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

How Nike lured Farah to work with coach Salazar in Oregon
