It’s a busy time of year. Let’s crack on, shall we?

FOOTBALL
Mourinho’s gone. Here’s the inside story of how it all unfolded. It all started with Eden Hazard’s injury at Swansea. So who’s to blame? It’s not just Jose, surely. Have the club made an error by sacking him? And can Hiddink (if it is to be him) turn it around?

2015 should be Arsenal’s year to win the title. The other usual suspects won’t all be as weak in the future.  Here’s a look at how topsy-turvy the season has been so far. Much will depend on Ozil and Giroud.

This changed things forever: Bosman, 20 years on.

RIP Jimmy Hill.

Abby Wambach is one of the greatest female football players ever. She’s retiring. Have you heard of her? No, well, she wants you to forget her, anyway.

Heard of Football Leaks? Dutch side F.C. Twente certainly have.

2015 LOL.

FIFA
Blatini banned. But they aren’t sorry. No siree. Not. At. All. But Tim Roth is, at least. 

CRICKET
Like Christmas, the timeless test 1939 lasted 12 days. (See what I did there?)

Was the West Indies era of dominance a fluke?

OLYMPICS
How £825m is now considered ‘cheap’.

NHL
Are the goalies too big, or is the goal too small?

F1
How the sport is missing a rather large ($1bn) trick.

SPOTY
Yay Andy Murray.

TENNIS
There’s still a LOT to say about Serena vs American Pharoah. Really.

Thoughts on Federer’s 2016.

BASKETBALL
How did we end up with four versions of one stat?

GOLF
Tiger at 40: Why he still matters.

DATA
Ultimate frisbee is way behind in terms of analytics. Who knew?

That’s it – no edition next week, see you in 2016.
