Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has confirmed David Luiz will make his
second debut for the club against Liverpool in the Premier League on
Friday.
Luiz, who returned to the west London club from Paris Saint-Germain
in a surprise £32 million ($42.7 million, 38 million euros) move on
transfer deadline day, will replace injured Blues captain John Terry at
Stamford Bridge.
The Brazilian defender’s first spell at Chelsea became known for his habit of making high-profile mistakes.
Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville memorably said Luiz
looked like he was “being controlled by a 10-year-old in the crowd on a
Playstation” after one especially error-strewn display and the
29-year-old was unable to shed that reputation during his time in
France.
A 73-year-old man died 45 minutes after his dying wish of meeting Manchester United players came true.
Paddy Lawler, a lifelong supporter of
the Red Devils and a prostate cancer patient, had told his family he
would love to meet with the United squad before his death.
Despite the request seeming like a long
shot, Lawler’s granddaughter, Kayleigh, posted an appeal on Facebook for
anyone to help get in touch with the club in order for his wish to be
granted.
The post was seen by the cousin on
United’s player, Jesse Lingard. The winger, alongside Marcus Rashford,
Ashley Young and Timothy Fosu-Mensah, visited Lawler three days later
and 45 minutes after the visit, he passed on.
The All Progressives Congress
governorship candidate in Edo State, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, has declared
that he will not be a puppet to any godfather if elected governor of Edo
State in the Saturday’s election.
Obaseki made the declaration during an interview monitored on Television Continental on Wednesday.
“I will not be a puppet to any godfather or godmother if I become governor of Edo State,” Obaseki said.
The APC candidate said if he needed to
be a puppet to anybody, he would rather be a puppet to the good people
of Edo State, whose general mandate he was seeking to become their
governor.
Obaseki described Governor Adams
Oshiomhole as a true democrat who, according to him, does not even like
to be seen as a godfather, let alone expect someone to be his puppet.
He commended the achievements of the
Adams Oshiomhole administration and promised to continue work on the
good template already set by the governor so that he could move the
state to greater heights.

Wells Fargo Bank has been ordered to pay $185 million in fines and
penalties to settle what the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau calls
"the widespread illegal practice of secretly opening unauthorized
deposit and credit card accounts."
Thousands of Wells Fargo
employees opened the accounts in secret so they would get bonuses for
hitting their sales targets, according to investigators. More than 2
million deposit and credit card accounts may have been created without
customer authorization.
