One of football's most decorated player, Lahm made a change from fullback to midfield after Pep Guardiola took over at Bayern and it seems to have worked best. Philipp Lahm took the field at Munich’s Olympic Stadium against Hertha Berlin with Bayern needing to win to claim the Bundesliga title. They did so comfortably after a 3-1 victory. But there was another statistic at the end of the game which stood out.  Lahm, who had only started playing in midfield that season after Pep Guardiola swapped his position, had made 134 passes.

Sterling posted what seemed to be a sarcastic post on his Twitter account after re-tweeting a number of users who'd criticised his decision not to play on Sunday. Sterling wrote: 'Now listening to... Excuse me for being human. On my way home.' England saw off Estonia after Wayne Rooney scored a free-kick in a 1-0 win.(mail)
