Mourinho was not a happy man following two consecutive Premier League losses and will need to motivate his players ahead of a trip to Turf Moor

Two loss out of three opening fixtures is not the way in which Jose Mourinho envisioned his third season at Old Trafford to go, and Manchester United could be in danger of losing a spectacular third game in a row if they fail to recover against Burnley at Turf Moor on Sunday.

The Red Devils will need to regain confidence following an abysmal 3-0 home loss to Tottenham and a 3-2 loss to Brighton to leave them languishing in 13th place in the table.

Burnley will also have added incentive to win the fixture as they are also off the backs of two successive losses – to Watford and newly promoted Fulham.

In the United States (US), the game will be shown on NBC Sports and streamed online via the NBC Sports Live app.

The game will not be shown in the United Kingdom (UK).

The Clarets will be without Steven Defour, Johann Berg Gudmundsson and goalkeeper Nick Pope due to injury.

Both Anders Lindegaard and Robbie Brady are also sidelined.

Burnley XI: Hart; Bardsley, Tarkowski, Mee(C), Taylor; Lennon, Westwood, Cork, McNeil; Hendrick; Wood.

The quartet of Antonio Valencia, Nemanja Matic, Jesse Lingard and Alexis Sanchez were all in the XI included in the loss to Tottenham and all four are retained as Mourinho looks to avoid three straight defeats.

Defender Phil Jones was was forced off the pitch on Monday and is a doubt for the clash against Burnley, but Eric Bailly has not been given a starting berth.

Marcos Rojo, Diogo Dalot and Sergio Romero remain out for United.

Man United XI: De Gea; Valencia(C), Smalling, Lindelöf, Shaw; Fellaini, Matic, Pogba; Lingard, Lukaku, Sanchez.

Manchester United are priced at odds of winning 7/10 according to bet 365, while a draw is available at 11/4. A win for Burnley is up for 5/1.

Mourinho’s terrible week started at the 3-0 home loss to Tottenham (which marked his worst ever home defeat) and has seemed to be on a downward spiral throughout the opening weeks of the season.

Following his clashes with the Manchester United board due to their inability to supply him with the players he wanted to sign in the summer, the Portuguese manager was subjected to a shock loss away to Brighton and then a devastating defeat at Old Trafford to Mauricio Pochettino’s men.

The press conference that ensued seemed to perfectly encapsulate the mayhem in which he has been embroiled with at Man United this season – stating that he demands ‘respect’ due to having won three Premier League titles despite losing by a scoreline of 3-0 at home.

In his most recent press conference, Mourinho cited philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel in his latest bizarre rant.

The Red Devils will need to bounce back fast and hard if they want to continue to remain in the race to challenge for the title, as their rivals Man City, Liverpool, Tottenham and Chelsea already occupy the top half of the table.

Sean Dyche’s Burnley will be disappointed following their exit from the Europa League after failing to beat Olympiakos, and are yet to register a win this season in the Premier League after drawing to Southampton on opening day.

The World Cup winner has become the majority shareholder in the Spanish club and will preside over the board of directors

Brazil legend Ronaldo has puchased a 51 per cent share in La Liga side Real Valladolid.

Despite now owning a majority of the club, Ronaldo has agreed that president Carlos Suarez will remain in his position, while the World Cup winner will take on the role of president of the board of directors.

The club’s new majority owner was unveiled on Monday at a press conference where he outlined his plans for the future of the club.

“We want to grow and reach where our will allows us,” Ronaldo said. “I will use four words to define our politics: Competitiveness, Transparency, Revolution and Social. I assure you that you will find me as a lover of Castilla-Leon, Valladolid and Real Valladolid.”

Suarez is delighted to welcome Ronaldo on board, confirming that negotiations took just over a month to finalise. The club president believes the addition of the former Real Madrid striker will help put Valladolid “on the map” while also indicating that it was not merely a financial decision to sell to the Brazilian.

“The deal was closed on Wednesday,” Suarez announced. “Ronaldo acquired 51% of the shares in a personal capacity. It was at the end of July when we started talking. 

“It was not an economic issue, but now Valladolid can play in other leagues, Ronaldo puts us on the map now. I thought it was the best for the club, and that’s what I bet, you’ll see that it’s the ideal option for Valladolid.”

Since retiring from football in 2011, the three-time FIFA World Player of the Year winner, Ronaldo took an active interest in other sports and owning teams, including motorsport group A1 Team Brazil and sports marketing firm 9INE.

He also owns shares in North American Soccer League club Fort Lauderdale Strikers and founded the Ronaldo Academy, a youth football school in the United States and China.

During his playing career, he played over 500 games for teams such as PSV, Barcelona, Real Madrid and both Milan clubs. He also scored 62 goals in 98 appearances for Brazil, winning the World Cup in 1994 and 2002.

The Dutch winger is determined to force his way into Eusebio Di Francesco’s starting XI, with his outings to date having come from off the bench

Justin Kluivert has told Roma that he wants to “become a starter”, with the Dutchman determined to work his way off the bench.

The 19-year-old winger, who is the son of former Barcelona star Patrick, was a man in demand during the summer transfer window.

His exploits after graduating out of a famed academy system at Ajax saw Europe’s top clubs falling over themselves in an effort to secure his signature.

Kluivert eventually opted to further his development in Serie A, with the decision taken to avoid joining a truly elite club at this stage of his career.

He has had to be patient since arriving in the Italian capital, with two appearances made as a substitute, but he has made it clear that he made a move with the intention of starting every week.

Kluivert told Fox Sports: “I want to become a starter, I have joined Roma for just that.

“My time has not yet arrived, but I have played several minutes and I’m happy. I’m also satisfied with the training sessions . Things are heading in the right direction.

“My house is almost ready and everything is going as planned.

“Everyone knew that the start in Rome would be difficult because they expect so much. At Ajax I was freer on the field, while here I have to play more centrally. I feel more and more comfortable though.”

Despite having only seen 65 minutes of Serie A football so far, Kluivert does already have an assist to his name – having teed up Edin Dzeko during a 1-0 win over Torino on the opening weekend.

The spring racing carnival is in full swing, which means all of the stylish event-goers have carefully planned their outfits for the season. On Saturday, October 19, the fashion set descended on Royal Randwick for The Everest and their looks for this Sydney race day certainly didn’t disappoint. Every guest dressed up in their fashionable best and with our street style photographer there on the ground to capture it all, the result is plenty of sartorial moments to bookmark and reference year after year.

As per usual, guests at the Sydney event took a number of style risks. The day was awash with colour, with a palette of blue and pink being key trends on the ground. Bold prints were also having their moment at The TAB Everest, with stripes, checks and painterly prints all on display. A big trend this year was the tailored trouser suits, with a number of guests trying out a matchy-matchy two-piece approach. Jumpsuits also reigned supreme, with one pastel blue number in particular receiving ticks from the Vogue team.

Then there was the headwear. Given Sydney’s warmer climate, there were headpieces of every size and shape – with large-brimmed straw hats giving guests a welcome reprieve from the sun. Headband-style headwear is also a favourite this spring, whether adorned with pearls or colourful flowers. Bows were everywhere once again this spring too, seen nestled into the ponytails of a number of guests.

Also in the accessories department, shoes and bags complemented each look. A Dior Saddle bag could be seen draped around the wrist of one well-dressed guest, why the ever-practical cross-body bag still made an appearance, whether it was in a YSL or a Gucci iteration. Chanel, Louis Vuitton and Fendi also received mentions in the accessories realm.

Other show-goers let their accessories make a statement, with one carrying a box-sized clutch and another, a straw bag in the shape on an elephant. Weird and wonderful sunglasses were the other way to let your accessories do the talking – while also remaining a practical addition for the Sydney sun – with pearl-encrusted glasses and aviators a key trend.

On the day, guests enjoyed a number of events, including stopping by the always inspiring Fashion Chute.

This issue, featuring the gorgeous Bella Hadid, was brought together in the shadow of the next, the December issue, in which we will celebrate the 60th anniversary of Australia. But that doesn’t mean it was given any less consideration, love or care by the team; in fact, quite the contrary. Editing this edition has taught me the need to re-evaluate the past – not delete it – as we move things forward.

Australia was originally launched as a supplement within UK . It wasn’t until 1959 that we published our first independent, standalone magazine, with Dame Helen Mirren’s cousin on the cover, shot by the great Norman Parkinson.

While poring over those early issues at the State Library of NSW, where they keep a full collection (as does the National Library of Australia in Canberra), regular contributor Jody Scott came across an extraordinary account of Australia at the time, written by a visiting American journalist, Marilyn Mercer, and published for US audiences, titled Australia: a man’s world, for better or worse? It was reprinted in our in 1962 with an invitation for readers to write in with their reaction to her views, and five guineas was offered for the best letter on the theme.

Mercer reported that Australians were much like Americans: we were independent, friendly and intensely democratic (men sat in the front of taxis, we didn’t tip and even the rich didn’t have many household servants) but also “curiously apathetic”. She noted that no-one worked very hard in Sydney, we knocked off early and went to the beach, and were committed to the “good life”. “They are more given to appreciating culture dutifully than to creating it,” she added.

Her headline about a man’s world was largely drawn from her observation that sports dominated; that Australian women preferred the role of “pioneer women in the home” to independence; and her attendance at a cocktail party at a Sydney press club, where men and women were separated (at the time, it was the norm in drinking establishments and clubs).

She wrote: “Their aborigines, like our American Indians, largely cling to their own ways and take little part in Australian life.” No mention of the fact Indigenous Australians were only given the right to enrol to vote that same year, and so therefore were considered citizens for the first time, but in reality were still living under a form of apartheid.

While reading Mercer’s story today is fascinating, it is also rather uncomfortable. It might be easier to ignore both it and other stories, such as ‘How to Manage a Woman’ by Abe Burrows, which includes the advice: “never leave her cigarette unlit …”. Looking back at covers from the 90s, I’m bewildered to think we featured young teens. But I strongly believe that censoring the content of the past is a certain way to repeat mistakes in the future. I am also strongly opposed to artistic censorship of historic work.

In re-examining the social mores of the 60s, we reconsidered some of the work of the great photographers of the time, including Sam Haskins, specifically his book, . Sam retired to Australia in 2002 and passed away seven years later. While Sam did not shoot for , he did some of his last work with our fashion director, Christine Centenera, which was published by me because I was introduced to him by his friend and a regular collaborator, Alison Veness, who is today ’s creative director at large.

To be clear, Haskins was a talented artist and his pictures are a study in the sexuality and beauty of the time. There has never been, and there is not, any suggestion of impropriety. But I wondered if I would be bold enough to publish anything even slightly as risqué as his work today for fear of it seeming to objectify the subject. And so we sent creative boards to Bella and asked if she was comfortable referencing Haskins’s work to create a modern for this month’s issue. She was and found the whole creative process empowering. I hope that with these images and the accompanying story, we might start a conversation about resisting the temptation to wipe away years of past work because it doesn’t sit comfortably with today’s mores.

Victorians used a fig leaf to cover the genitals of a statue of cast so as not to upset the Queen, while Pope Paul IV decreed the use of fig leaves back in the 16th century. In the 1600s, Pope Innocent X went one step further, castrating nude sculptures throughout the Vatican. In the 1930s, the Spanish featured a Goya nude on a stamp, but the US postage service refused to deliver any letters carrying it. Nazis and religious zealots burned books. Artistic censorship has never served humanity well, nor created a more moral world.

Talking of publishing and forever protecting the extraordinary work of great artists, this month we sadly bid farewell to one of the giants of image-making, Peter Lindbergh. At Australia, we will be forever grateful for the work he did for us, including a groundbreaking cover of Naomi Campbell in 1997 and, most recently, for capturing Emma Watson for the issue dedicated to sustainability that she guest-edited in 2018. He was a kind man and a true artist; he made careers and supported friends. The legacy of his work should be forever admired and appreciated by future generations.

This striking detached house was re-built by architect Marcus Lee, who worked on Heathrow’s Terminal 5 and the Lloyd’s building. Alex is my sister, and I remember her telling me about the house Lee had built nearby in Clapton, known as the Framehouse, and how she and her husband Chris were very inspired by it. When they found a detached but boxy and architecturally uninspiring new build, they went to Lee for help in transforming it into a more distinctive family home.

The exterior of the house is painted dark grey and covered with a wooden frame made from Douglas fir. The same wood is used inside to create the feeling of being in a Japanese or Scandinavian retreat. The open-plan living area is zoned by the use of rugs, sliding doors and pillars, with a galley kitchen functioning as a walkway between the dining room and TV/play room. Beautifully coloured sliding doors throughout the house contrast with the natural wood to create a bold and contemporary atmosphere.

We come from a Swedish family and Alex is drawn to both the practicalities of modern Scandinavian design and the more traditional Swedish style. There is a common misconception that all Scandi style is minimal and monochrome, when it can in fact be very colourful and decorative – as with the upholstered vintage Josef Frank chairs in the living room.

Alex’s home has Scandinavian elements such as the iconic String shelves, lined with memorabilia and items the children have made. This table and chairs set was inherited from an aunt. The chairs are upholstered in Swedish fabric, while the Marmoleum flooring is colour- blocked in a mid-century style.

Alex says that east London is her spiritual home: ‘This area is all about change, it’s exciting! The majority of people that we have met here are working for themselves and it has inspired us to do the same. We both work for ourselves and run our own schedules. This house helps us do just that.’

Alex and Chris built a cabin-style house in their garden which they use for guests. Below, see inside the cabin.

This house is an excerpt from East London Homes by Sarah Bagner, which is out now and published by Hoxton Mini Press

Hollywood’s most beloved Netflix heartthrob, 23-year-old Noah Centineo (To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before; The Perfect Date; Sierra Burgess is a Loser) is officially off the market, having shown up to UNICEF’s Masquerade Ball in West Hollywood with 22-year-old model Alexis Ren on Saturday night. And, though both celebrities have been a rumoured pair for some months now, it’s fair to assume this red carpet debut solidifies their relationship status as official.

Click Here: liverpool mens jersey

Arriving together to the annually celebrated ball, which took place at the Kimpton La Peer Hotel in Los Angeles over the weekend, Centineo and Ren confirmed their relationship status in what appeared to be coordinating outfits. While Centineo kept his style simple in a minimal black suit with a striped shirt underneath, his outfit worked as a blank canvas to perfectly complement Ren’s silver gown, which featured an open back and high slit, and matching metallic shoes. 

The 22-year-old model and former YouTube star, who has amassed 13.3 million followers on Instagram and recently appeared on the US edition of Dancing with the Stars, is believed to have been seeing Centineo for a while, with the up-and-coming actor allegedly spotted collecting her from the airport back in May. As per Us Magazine, the pair have been linked since and, in September, were spotted again leaving an eatery in West Hollywood together after what appeared to be a date, before being seen at Whole Foods together the next day. 

This follows Ren’s previous relationship with her Dancing with the Stars co-star 25 year old Alan Bersten, and Centineo’s reported links to actresses Angeline Appel and Kelli Burglund, as also reported by Us Magazine. 

Both based in Los Angeles, with Centineo slated to appear next in Charlie’s Angels and the sequel To all The Boys I’ve Loved Before: P.S. I Still Love You, it makes sense the 22 and 23-year-old are running in the same social circles. And, while neither Centineo nor Ren have taken to Instagram yet to personally publicise their relationship, it’s surely only a matter of time before the two take to the platform, where no doubt their combined 30.8 million followers are hard at work curating fan accounts for the pair as we speak. 

On October 23, Vogue Australia creative director Jillian Davison (above) was crowned 2019’s Outstanding Creative at the 2019 Australian Fashion Laureate Awards, which took place at the iconic Café Sydney. The honour, which served to highlight Davison’s achievements and creative contribution to the Australian fashion industry, was accompanied by eight other awards across categories including womenswear, menswear, retailer, accessories, modelling, and emerging talent.

Davison returned to the Vogue Australia family as the publications’s creative director just last year, after an impressive run internationally as the fashion director of Glamour US, fashion editor of Harper’s Bazaar US, and contributing editor at Teen Vogue, Vogue China, Vogue Germany and Vogue Japan. The ceremony also saw Vogue Australia cover star, Charlee Fraser, take home the award for Model of the Year.

After being judged by a panel of more than 30 industry leaders, the finalists from each category gathered together with fellow members of the Australian fashion industry at Café Sydney for a celebratory luncheon, where the winners across all nine categories were revealed and formally recognised for their achievements by IMG and the New South Wales Government. 

This year, perhaps symbolising an appetite for change, IMG introduced a new category for Sustainable Innovation, which aimed to recognise the Australian brands demonstrating leadership for best practices in sustainability. Husband and wife duo, Marnie Goding and Adam Koniaras of Elk, an Australian brand that is locally designed, independent and ethically sourced, took home the honour.

“The introduction of the Sustainable Innovation award category allows our industry to acknowledge the efforts and accomplishments of individuals and brands who are dedicated to lessening fashion’s impact on our environment, and to celebrate the most noteworthy innovations shaping our industry and its future,” Natalie Xenita, the executive director of IMG’s fashion events group for the Asia-Pacific region, explained via a press release.

CHICAGO — 

The Justice Department investigation into the origins of its own probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election has morphed from an administrative review into a criminal inquiry, a potentially significant shift that gives the federal prosecutor leading the inquiry broader powers to compel testimony and the production of records.

How significant the new criminal aspect of the inquiry truly is remained unclear, however. Justice Department officials on Friday declined to divulge what prompted John Durham, the federal prosecutor handling the case, to ramp up his investigation.

The decision may stem, however, from a referral by the Justice Department’s inspector general, Michael Horowitz, about a witness who may have lied to his investigators, according to a person familiar with the matter. If so, that could mean the criminal aspect of the case is fairly limited.

Horowitz is expected to soon release a report on the Justice Department’s handling in 2016 and 2017 of secret surveillance of a former Trump campaign advisor.

A Justice Department spokeswoman, Kerri Kupec, declined to comment on the matter.

President Trump, who for years has prodded the Justice Department to investigate its own investigators, on Friday sounded confident that Durham would justify his calls for action.

“I can’t tell you what’s happening,” the president told reporters, but “I will tell you this: I think you’re going to see a lot of really bad things.”

Durham’s investigation is the most politically fraught of three inquiries digging into aspects of the Justice Department’s handling of high-profile investigations in 2016. Atty. Gen. William Barr personally tapped Durham, a veteran and respected U.S. attorney in Connecticut, to lead the inquiry and has kept close tabs on his progress, Justice Department officials said.

Barr has even accompanied the prosecutor on overseas trips to press counterparts to provide information that may help the investigation.

The attorney general’s keen interest in Durham’s work has raised concerns that the nation’s top law enforcement officer is chasing conspiracy theories championed by Trump, who has repeatedly challenged U.S. intelligence and law enforcement assessments that Russia actively sought to assist his campaign.

Top House Democrats on Thursday night decried the decision to open what they called a “politically motivated investigation.”

Rep. Adam B. Schiff (D-Burbank), the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, and Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, in a joint statement said the criminal inquiry “raised profound new concerns that the Department of Justice under Attorney General William Barr has lost its independence and become a vehicle for President Trump’s political revenge.”

“If the Department of Justice may be used as a tool of political retribution or to help the President with a political narrative for the next election, the rule of law will suffer new and irreparable damage,” they added.

The other two Justice Department investigations into 2016-related matters are being led by Horowitz and John Huber, the U.S. attorney in Utah, who had been selected by former Atty. Gen. Jeff Sessions to conduct a broad review of the Russia inquiry and investigations related to Trump campaign opponent Hillary Clinton. Durham took over Huber’s Russia portfolio, Barr has said. Justice Department officials have declined to say whether Huber is still investigating how the agency handled Clinton-related inquiries.

Horowitz has told Congress that his team interviewed more than 100 witnesses and reviewed a million records, and he has submitted a draft report to Justice Department officials to review and declassify.

He has focused his attention on how the Justice Department and FBI obtained an order from the nation’s top spy court to eavesdrop on communications by a former campaign advisor, Carter Page. The FBI suspected Page might have been a Russian agent; Page was not charged with any crimes.

Former Justice Department officials have said they have confidence Horowitz is conducting a nonpartisan review. They suspect his report will fault how the Justice Department and FBI handled certain aspects of the case.

Barr apparently did not believe the inspector general’s investigation was sufficient and appointed Durham to conduct his own review. Durham appears to be focusing, in part, on the work of U.S. and foreign intelligence agencies, according to Justice Department officials.
