• Simply get the basics right and the rest will take care of itself
Looking back at Ireland's victory on Saturday, the opening minutes gave a portent of things to come.

• James Lawton: Schumacher to kick up a storm in desert
It may be true that nowhere is the world less inclined to stand still than in Formula One but then if anyone can put a brake on the assumption that both genius and unprecedented achievement can be timed out in a mere four years surely it is Michael Schumacher.

• Not even Barcelona will stop Manchester United ruling Europe this time
What a result for Manchester United and what a performance. The more this season goes on the better they and Wayne Rooney become.
