The prolific strikeforce of Sergio Aguero and Alvaro Negredo were again on target while Fernandinho struck twice and David Silva and Yaya Toure also got on the scoresheet.

Theo Walcott marked his first start since September with two fine goals to keep Arsenal in contention but Per Mertesacker's late header was mere consolation for a side ultimately well beaten.

City, who have now scored 35 goals in their eight home games this season, fully deserved the three points to move within three of the Gunners.

Eminem Previews Music Video for Rihanna-Assisted 'The Monster'

Eminem has previewed the music video for his collaboration with Rihanna, "The Monster". The nearly-one-minute snippet features Rihanna as a sexy therapist. Donning a black outfit and rocking black bob with blunt bangs, she welcomes Eminem to her office.

Em sits on a chair and watches images of violence, family and drug addiction on the monitor while his collaborator takes some notes. In another scene, there are two armed men who are pointing their guns at a giant iron box, which apparently has something dangerous inside. There's still no word on when exactly the full video will arrive.

Last month, Eminem teased the video with some pictures from the filming set. Through a photo, it's revealed that the video was directed by Rich Lee, the same person behind his "Not Afraid" and "Lighters" videos.

Marking another collaboration between Eminem and Rihanna, "The Monster" appears on "MMLP2", the Detroit rapper's latest album that topped Billboard 200 for two non-consecutive weeks. The track is currently sitting at No. 1 on Billboard 100's.

Gareth Bale 'Cristiano Ronaldo clone' - don't think so


Real Madrid assistant coach Paul Clement has brushed aside suggestions that Gareth Bale is the next Cristiano Ronaldo.

Madrid, who broke the world transfer record in 2009 when luring Ronaldo, 28, to the Santiago Bernabeu from Manchester United, also spent heavily when signing Bale, 24, from Tottenham in the summer.

Given that the pair have followed a similar career path and can play in similar roles on the pitch, many have claimed that the Wales international is just a clone of the former Sporting Lisbon player.

Clement, however, disagrees and feels the duo each have their own individual strengths and attributes. 

Capella Group Brilliantly Recapped Beyonce's Entire Career in One Song (Video)

Capella Group Brilliantly Recapped Beyonce's Entire Career in One Song

Pentatonix, the a cappella group that won The Sing-Off's third season in 2011, released a new video called "The Evolution of Beyoncé" over this weekend. The video does an amazing job of covering a lot of Beyoncé's greatest hits over her career.
It starts out with the Destiny's Child song "Bills, Bills, Bills," and works its way artfully through the years until it finishes strong on "Halo."
The a cappella group features Kirstie Maldonaldo, Scott Hoying, Mitch Grassi, Kevin Olusola, and Avi Kaplan — all singers in their early 20s — who have been making music together since they auditioned for The Sing-Off (and, strangely enough, that audition was the first time they all sang together). They've gone on from winning that competition to putting their songs — both covers and originals — on Youtube, and eventually releasing a self-titled album and a Christmas album on iTunes. Recently they teamed up with Lindsey Stirling, a popular violinist who also does covers and medleys, to create a cover of the Imagine Dragons song "Radioactive."
Pentatonix's new album, PTX Vol. 2, goes live on November 5, and features covers of hits like "Can't Hold Us" and "I Need Your Love," as well as a medley. If you're a fan of "The Evolution of Beyoncé," you're sure to love the rest of the music they have to offer.
