Formation: 4-1-3-2 Goalkeeper: Shilton Paul (MB) East Bengal have the stronger squad on paper but the goalkeeping department is a weak link. Mohun Bagan too have had problems in that position in recent years and the signing of last season’s best goalkeeper Sandip Nandy looked to have solved that. But Nandy’s arrival has seen Shilton raise his game as he has become first choice. Nandy would need something special to get his place back in the team as for now Shilton looks to be in the form of his life which also earned him a place among the India standbys for the friendlies in Siliguri....

Mohun Bagan AC and Mohammedan Sporting Club played out a goalless draw in their round eleven clash of the I-League at the Saltlake Stadium in Kolkata on Wednesday evening. The second Kolkata derby in four days was witnessed by a crowd of almost 30,000 but neither side did enough to win the match as they were guilty of some wasteful finishing. The result kept Mohammedan Sporting in seventh spot with 12 points from 10 outings and they also kept their third straight clean sheet while Mohun Bagan are now behind them with one point less from the same number of matches....

DSK Shivajians, who have now played three home games on the trot, started the game very much on the front foot, earning two corners within the first three minutes.

A break from their Premier League problems – Stoke sitting third bottom after a disappointing festive period – failed to materialise at the Ricoh Arena as Hughes’ men were beaten by a Jack Grimmer screamer.

After trailing at half-time against Burnley, Manchester City had Sergio Aguero to thank for their 4-1 home victory, while 10-man Swansea City will need a replay to get past Wolves....

Returning along with the Hulkster will be his former nWo team-mates Kevin Nash and Scott Hall, both of whom confirmed some kind of a big reunion of the former WCW and WWE faction on the show.

Hull made it clear that they were disappointed Silva was leaving but added that he would always be remembered for his efforts to try to keep the club in the top flight after replacing Mike Phelan on a short-term deal in January.

Some may argue that drug-related risks are self-inflicted....

The struggling tourists were all out for 189 in the final session on Sunday to suffer their heaviest Test loss to India after Kohli enforced the follow-on in Pune. Umesh Yadav (3-22) and Ravindra Jadeja (3-52) capitalised on the tourists’ shortcomings with the bat, while Ravichandran Ashwin took 2-45 after claiming 4-69 in the first innings.
