EA Sports FIFA players now have access to one of the most lethal strike-forces in football history, with the news that Diego Maradona, Pelé and Ronaldinho are teaming-up in a Soccer Aid World XI Fc team.

Some 3.4 billion people — almost half of the world’s 7.6B population — is expected to watch the FIFA World Cup that starts Thursday, as the soccer tournament, which takes place this year in Russia, remains one of the world’s most popular media events.
Latin America is expected to have the largest number of viewers, according to research company GlobalWebIndex, followed by the Middle East and Africa, Asia Pacific and Europe. However, thanks to an embarrassing defeat against Trinidad & Tobago, the U.S. won’t be competing in the World Cup for the first time since 1986, a major blow to one of the largest TV markets in the world (albeit one hamstrung by time differences this time around). It’s thought that less than a quarter of the population in the U.S. will tune in to watch any games, and those may be largely expats and those cheering on the Mexican team.

Yan M’Vila has signed for Sunderland on a one-year loan deal with a view to a permanent deal after completing a medical on Wearside.
The 25-year-old central midfielder was high on the shopping list of Arsenal and Liverpool just a couple of seasons ago, though a move to either side never materialised, and M’Vila instead plied his trade for Rennes, Rubin Kazan, and went on loan to Internazionale earlier this year.
M’Vila was all set to sign for Dynamo Moscow on loan before trashing his new house and buying an axe for protection after claims of extorting money were made against the Dynamo Head of Security.
The French international midfielder has made 22 appearances for his national side, scoring one goal, and his compatriot Marcel Desailly told Goal.com in 2012 that: “M’Vila is better than Vieira was and Arsenal should pay whatever it takes to sign him.

After weeks of the usual ridiculous speculation (who really believed Chris Fountain would duck into the house mere days after being fired from Corrie?), the cast for the next Celebrity Big Brother was finally revealed on tonight's (August 22) massive launch show.
In some ways it's a pretty typical CBB lineup - a Towie star, tick. A Loose Woman, tick. A Barbie-esuqe glamour model, tick, tick, tick. However, we did notice that the new lot of contestants are a bit more controversial than usual, boasting between them an 'impressive' amount of arrests and column inches for issues as diverse as drink, drugs, violence and racism.
Before it all kicks off in the house, Best in Showbiz brings you a rundown of the real-world antics of Celebrity Big Brother's most scandalous group yet...

With the signings of Lukas Podolski and Olivier Giroud now complete, What Culture looks at the five players Arsenal should target in order to catch up with Premier League Champions Manchester City.
1. Yann M’Vila
The most talked about prospective signing for the Gunners this summer is undoubtedly Rennes’ captain Yann M’Vila. One of the hottest properties in world football at the moment, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich were all credited with an interest for the holding midfielder at some point during the summer so far. Arsenal are strongly believed to be interested in securing the services of M’Vila, and it looks to be a transfer saga that could drag on for a while.
M’Vila is the poster-boy for the future of French football; he has received praise from high places, with French World Cup winner Marcel Desailly declaring that he’d ‘sign him with his...
