This was Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger speaking at a press conference ahead of Saturday’s blockbuster Premier League fixture against Manchester United at Old Trafford. Wenger does not forget easily. He has not forgotten that the last time he was at the Theatre of Dreams, an 18-year-old making his debut in the English top division absolutely annihilated his team. The last time Arsenal visited Old Trafford, they were in the race for the Premier League title....

At FBN and the Fox News Channel, Bartiromo hosts three shows and is on the air for 17 hours a week, more than any female anchor across all television and making her one of the nation’s best-connected reporters on Wall Street. That’s not a bad place to be considering the recent, wild gyrations in the market. Thus, Newsweek figured it was a good time to pick her brain for a prediction or two, and to reminisce about her historic contribution to financial reporting....

De Filippis made her Formula One debut in 1958, driving for Scuderia Centro Sud in a non-works all-Maserati vehicle – driving at that year’s Monaco Grand Prix. She did not have much success in the sport, but de Filippis was a pioneer who fought discrimination from team owners and managers alike, one of whom told her the “only helmet a woman should be wearing should be the one at the hairdresser’s....

That’s pretty much what just happened in America. But that’s also where the analogy ends. For in the case of American politics, the truck didn’t just happen to be there like some random fluke. Rather it—or he, however we wish to describe the threat—was a manifestation of societal dysfunction that’s almost inevitable when so many people are left in chronically desperate economic and social situations. Donald Trump did not create those situations; those situations created Donald Trump....

The loss left Liverpool five points behind fourth-placed United and delivered a huge blow to their ambitions of a Champions League spot. The turning point of the match came when Steven Gerrard was sent off only 38 seconds after coming on at half-time. Balotelli could have followed his captain as 10-man Liverpool were chasing the match. The Italy international, who was already on a yellow card, almost came to blows with United defender Smalling following a challenge near the touch-line....

The attacking midfielder came into limelight under Klopp at Dortmund when he emerged through the ranks of the club and became one of Europe’s most sought after midfielders. However, German giants Bayern came calling for the player and he signed for the Bavarians in 2013, after they triggered his £27.5million release clause. The 23-year-old, who scored the winning goal in Germany’s world cup final triumph over Argentina, is not a regular at Bayern and has just 18 months remaining in his contract....

The Georgia freshman shared a tweet by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) expressing concern about the possibility that the 6-3 conservative majority court might uphold a Mississippi law that seeks to ban abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy. At stake is the precedent set by the historic 1973 Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion throughout the United States and the 1992 ruling in Planned Parenthood v. Casey, which reaffirmed Roe....

Biden confirmed on Monday that al-Zawahiri, who had led Al-Qaeda since Osama bin Laden’s 2011 death at the hands of U.S. Navy SEALs, was killed over the weekend in a U.S. drone strike. The president, who is currently in isolation due to the recurrence of a positive COVID-19 test, said during a speech from the White House balcony that al-Zawahiri had been instrumental in planning the attack of September 11, 2001, and the bombing of the USS Cole in 2000 and maintained that “justice has been delivered” with his death....

Greene told her Twitter followers on Monday that the winner of a gun valued at $2,860 would be announced on Tuesday, while noting that over 118,000 people had entered to win the weapon. Greene’s tweet and the giveaway were blasted by Twitter users before the winner was announced. Some called for Greene’s resignation or described her as a “disgrace,” while others expressed fears that the gun would be used in a deadly mass shooting....

Secretary of State Katie Hobbs also extended her lead over Republican gubernatorial nominee Kari Lake 50.3 percent to 49.7 percent. Both Lake and Masters have been endorsed for office by former President Donald Trump. In the latest ballot drop, 62,000 votes had been counted out of the 1....

Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt easily won the race. With most of the results in, he had more votes than his nearest two competitors—U.S. Representative Vicky Hartzler and scandal-ridden former Missouri Governor Eric Greitens—combined. McCloskey, meanwhile, trailed in fifth place with just 3 percent of the vote. In November, Schmitt will be opposed by beer heiress Trudy Busch Valentine, who defeated Marine veteran Lucas Kunce and nine others in the Democratic primary....

Meadows spoke to Fox News’ Laura Ingraham on Monday after Democratic Representative Adam Schiff, a member of the committee, said on Sunday that the panel was willing to recommend criminal charges against those who do not cooperate with the probe. Meadows is one of four former aides to former President Donald Trump who have been issued with subpoenas by the select committee and were required to meet a deadline of midnight on October 7 to submit documents relating to riots of January 6....

Despite the rest of the room looking straight out of Architectural Digest, there was one distracting feature—a bottle of Sweet Baby Ray’s casually used as a bookend. The strange choice of décor led to a slew of memes surrounding its intent. Zuckerberg announced virtually that the parent company of Facebook would be changing its name to Meta in a bid to rebrand. The Facebook founder said during the event that the name Facebook is no longer representative of the parent company as a whole....

“It’s no secret,” says New York City schools chief Joel Klein. “All you have to do is ask kids in these areas and they’ll tell you: school is not their thing. They don’t want to be identified as being good at it. Studying is not something they want to be seen doing,” he says. So Klein is setting out to sell school achievement to schoolchildren—much in the same way that kids are sold soda, breakfast cereal or pop music....

Arnold’s email address was shared on social media - leading to supporters venting their anger in numbers. Erik ten Hag decided to move for the Austria international after growing frustrations with United’s failure to land other forward targets, including Darwin Nunez, Antony and Benjamin Sesko. Arnautovic was a surprise inclusion amongst the wide array of Man United transfer links this summer, given the level of his career trajectory, having played for West Ham and Stoke City in previous Premier League stints....

That fight, a pay-per-view event at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, is for Bradley's WBO welterweight title. Win it, and Marquez will join a select group of fighters to have won titles in five weight divisions. They are Thomas Hearns (5), Sugar Ray Leonard (5), Floyd Mayweather (5), Oscar De La Hoya (6) … and Pacquiao (8). But this bout isn't about Pacquiao. "You know, Manny Pacquiao is a great fighter and we had a lot of great fights together," Marquez said in the run-up to his Vegas fight....

Marquez took a dominant performance across free practice into Saturday’s pole-position shootout and took top spot by two thousandths of a second from Andrea Dovizioso. Rossi was not even in contention after failing to make it out of Q1, the Italian’s troubles in Spielberg continuing as he prepares to start the race in 14th. That gives Marquez a great chance to extend his 49-point lead, but Dovizioso and future team-mate Jorge Lorenzo are sure to push him all the way....

The Seahawks running back is currently touring the award show circuit, attending the ESPY Awards on Wednesday and the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Sports Awards on Thursday, where he was slimed on national television. MORE: ESPYs fashion | Drake’s monologue | Stuart Scott’s speech Now, this shouldn’t be considered anything unusual. Being slimed is a time-honored Nickelodeon tradition. The issue is that Lynch was at the ESPYs last night and did his best to look as inconspicuous as possible despite being on national television....
