There were times when Enzo Maresca seemed to have the weight of the world on his shoulders. The Italian mooched around his technical area, bemoaning Chelsea’s frantic play and calling for calm. Panic had set in after another lead was frittered away, shoddy handling from the erratic Robert Sánchez gifting a mediocre Wolves an equaliser at the end of an average first half, and the winless run was in danger of ticking up to six.

However, while Sánchez remains an accident waiting to happen in goal, at least Chelsea had a second half to correct matters against one of the leakiest defences in the Premier League. The nerves faded after Marc Cucurella restored the advantage after an hour. Authority returned and although this was far from Chelsea’s most stylish win of the season, a final score of 3-1 was enough to capitalise on Newcastle’s setback against Bournemouth and see Maresca’s side take fourth place off Manchester City before they visit the champions on Saturday.

The president cast himself as a holy warrior in a speech that made 2017’s ‘American carnage’ theme seem almost innocent

He is risen. After dodging an assassin’s bullet and the prospect of jail, Donald Trump staged a political resurrection like no other. On Monday, as he returned to power, he embraced the role of a demagogue on a divine mission.

Sworn in as the 47th US president at the US Capitol in Washington, Trump delivered an inaugural address that cast himself as a holy warrior and made his “ American carnage ” speech from 2017 seem almost innocent.

Former President Biden’s last-minute pardons – of family members, members of the January 6 Capitol attack investigative committee, the former chair of the joint chiefs of staff Mark Milley, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Anthony Fauci, and the former Republican congresswoman Liz Cheney – are drawing heat from both sides of the political divide.

The Missouri Republican senator Eric Schmitt said Biden’s actions showed that “the guy who claimed he would ‘protect norms’ continues to bulldoze them and the Constitution until the bitter end.”

NSW premier Chris Minns says police will track down people behind attack and foreshadows new anti-hatred laws

A childcare centre in Sydney’s south-east was targeted with antisemitic graffiti and set alight early on Tuesday morning.

Just before 1am emergency services were called to the centre in Maroubra where firefighters extinguished the blaze, but the building sustained extensive damage, NSW police said in a statement.

Indelible stories from survivors and chilling present-day footage of the former camp combine to make this short, stark yet hopeful film. Look at the world in 2025 and you can easily see why it is such vital viewing

This month is the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz concentration camp in German-occupied Poland, and, in Jordan Dunbar’s documentary What Happened at Auschwitz, there is a sense of these chances to remember running out. Most obviously that’s true in terms of being able to speak directly to the survivors: Dunbar meets a handful of them, and their clarity and focus are undimmed, yet their numbers are declining.

Dunbar, however, assigns his subject matter another, different urgency. We live, he observes, in an era of disinformation and rising hatred. A terrifying percentage of online content and commentary about the Holocaust questions whether it happened or celebrates that it did. Less than a century since this appalling crime against humanity, the principle of Never Again is wobbling.

While today’s speech certainly struck a more measured tone than his 2017 address, it was still Trump through and through

Palestinian prisoners describe being held in poor conditions after their release as part of ceasefire deal

In the dead of night on Sunday, after hours of waiting, a white bus carrying dozens of Palestinian prisoners, released in exchange for three Israeli hostages handed over by Hamas to Israel, arrived at Fawakeh square in the West Bank city of Ramallah.

A group of young men had climbed on to the vehicle, waving Palestinian and Hamas flags. Disembarking from the coach were mostly women and many minors, the majority of whom were detained after 7 October 2023.

Ruben Amorim thinks so, but other managers have faced similar struggles. Here is a trip down memory lane to some of the worst crises at Old Trafford …

If United’s current state feels like a lost decade, then the 1930s were its progenitor, much of it spent in the second tier, fans yearning for the early 1900s glory years under Ernest Mangnall, one of only three United managers – with Matt Busby and Alex Ferguson – to win the league title. United finished last in the First Division at the end of the 1930-31 season, winning seven games, losing their opening 12, conceding 115 goals, the manager Herbert Bamlett, better known as a referee, sacked with six fixtures to play. The previous owner, John Henry Davies, who had funded the Mangnall years, had died in 1927, stretching finances. According to the author and broadcaster Eamon Dunphy, the final game, against Middlesbrough, drew 3,900 to Old Trafford, marked by an “uncanny atmosphere” with “the shouts of derision echoing through the empty grandstand”. United would spend the next couple of seasons fighting off relegation to the Third Division North.
