but i think it will be manchester city and liverpool. manchester city and liverpool. manchester united, out of the conversation when it comes to the top four places, disappointing for them but they can reach the champions league. huge game against ajax in the europa league final and they play crystal palace this weekend. lots of people have opinions aboutjose mourinho and manchester united, what is yours? put me on the spot! i have been disappointed with the way he has conducted his press conferences in the last month two. the constant excuses, i don't think i am seeing any positivity coming from him. he might be filling that himself, but the strength of the united squad, the strength of the united squad, the strength of the united squad, the strength and depth, they have a huge squad, huge budget and they have one of the biggest budget in the premier league. they should be able to cope with the demands of challenging on a few fronts. that is what managers demand, that is what owners demand. to throw everything at the europa league, it will come down to that one game,

manchester city and dortmund has a way of looking at monaco and say we will try and outscore you. outcoring players like mbappe is difficult. he broke the record for henry at the youngest age ever. that has led to the comparisons she the new henry. he has a physicality menry maybe didn't have. doesn't have that flair that henri had when he was starting out. but he is a fear some player, as far as juventus going, because they are so good defensively, this isa they are so good defensively, this is a team who didn't concede a single goal in two legs against barcelona and knocked them out. it is easy to say attack versus defence, i don't thinkjuve will make the mistakes dortmund made or manchester city: i think we will see a counter attacking display and they have their own striker who will cause problems too. waiting for them, surely real madrid, there is another leg to play against atletico but it was another ronaldo show. do i have to talk to you or can ijust watch the goals. unbelievable. i saw a bit of him at euro 2016. he do very much running any more, so i don't think you can s

arsenal and manchester city both won tonight. city's 3—1 win at home to west bromwich albion has all but assured a top four finish. arsenal's 2—0 victory at home to sunderland still gives them a chance. adam wild reports. at arsenal, they came more in hope than expectation. failure to qualify for the champions league for the first time in 20 seasons now more probable than possible, particularly if they fail to beat already relegated sunderland. an early goal would have boosted faint hopes. alexis sanchez for a moment thought he had won, only for it to be disallowed for handball. still, they did have plenty more first half chances, but none that were any more than just that. frustration that almost turned to humiliation early in the second—half. nacho monreal‘s wayward backpass nearly catching out his keeper. the breakthrough did eventually come from a familiar and trusted source. were it not for the goals of alexis sanchez this season, arsenal would not have what little hope they still do. their second followed soon after

now we have another fantastic challenge at manchester city. we know it will be tough, but we are really looking forward to it because there is no other way to do it. we are not going to take part, we are going to win and come back to birmingham. they drew 1-1 win they met in the league last week. tomorrow will be on another scale. birmingham city ladies won the fa cup in 2012 but that was before the finals played at wembley. a record crowd is expected. that makes it extra special for the blues's german goalkeeper. everyone who plays football clu bs goalkeeper. everyone who plays football clubs to play at wembley. for me, a little dream came true, because i think not every international player can say they played in wembley. i cannot wait to see the stadium and i can't wait for the game. there is another potential matchwinner in ellen white. she was a losing finalist with notts county last season. should it come to penalties, does your uncle? of course it does. as a striker you have got to put your hand up. i want to do anything to help the tea

of manchester, but across the city region, as the jewels are taking place. we do stand together and we are not prepared to tolerate those who will divide us and we will not give them any kind of oxygen. the love and compassion that was shown last night by the emergency services, who were brilliant, but also ordinary citizens offering homes and hotel rooms and taxi rides to those in need, that is what greater manchester is all about, and iam greater manchester is all about, and i am proud of that, it brings out, sadly, the best in us on an occasion like this. of course we think of those who have suffered, that is foremost in our thoughts, sad and outrageous though that is, but we will stand together. and we are hearing from the police tonight that the suspected suicide bomber who has been named was born in manchester, in 1994, 22 years old. what is your reaction to that? again, it is one of enormous sadness that a british young man should be so deluded by for whatever reasons that he is prepared to take the innocent lives of children, the innocent lives of ad

manchester is a city still coming to terms with lasts night. theresa may has paid tribute to the city. she said this morning, the cowardice of the attacker was met by the bravery of the emergency services and of the people of manchester. danjohnson reports now. manchester's streets, busy with shoppers. some shocked, some sad but determined. absolutely defiant. there is nobody in this world that will keep us away of coming to the centre of manchester, it's vibrancy, it's metropolitan feeling, it's fantastic, no amount of evilness will ever, ever dampen any good thought there is about manchester. greater manchester's new mayor shared their pride and defiance.” wa nt shared their pride and defiance.” want it thank the people of manchester. even if the minute after the attack, they opened their doors to strangers and drove them away from danger. they gave the best—possible, immediate response to those who seek to divide us. and it'll be that spirit of manchester that will prevail and hold us together. there were so many offers together. there

manchester has been a city on edge, today, shaken by alerts and rumours. and a shopping centre evacuated. it is now beyond doubt that the people of manchester and of this country have fallen victim to a callous terrorist attack. an attack that targeted some of the youngest people in our society with cold calculation. this was amongst the worst terrorist incidents we have ever experienced in the united kingdom. although it is not the first time that manchester has suffered in this way, it is the worst attack that the city has experience, and the worst ever to hit the north of england. dozens of people are still tried to trace loved ones after last night's bombing. and some of the first victims have been named. georgina callander was aged 18, seen here with ariana grande at a previous event. john atkinson, aged 28, from bury. and eight—year—old saffie roussos was amongst those killed. it was an attack directed at young people and innocence. during the day, police raided a number of houses. a 23—year—old man was arrested in connection with yesterday's

identified as a manchester city fire bomber. he's now thought to have had helped quite possibly from an expert bomb maker. this amateur footage taken yesterday is believed to show his brother being arrested in manchester. at the family home nearby, police used explosives to gain access and then search for clues. but there are international connections to this plot. from manchester, abedi is believed to have gone to libya, a failed state. and today, the french interior minister said war—torn syria was also a country he'd probably spent time in. increasingly, investigators have been coming round to the conclusion that the bomber, salman abedi, was not working alone. that he was simply the mule, carrying a device designed and built for him by somebody else. the bomb—maker would still be at large which is why the uk terror threat level has been raised to critical. mis, the security service, is working with police and other intelligence agencies to try to trace every possible connection he had in this country and abroad. this is

manchester united is the fitting response to the attack on their manchester city. we spoke to a fellow from the george washington centre on extremism. we spoke to a fellow from the george washington centre on extremismlj think washington centre on extremism.” think we are dealing with more than one person. i have a hard time believing that this individual who is being named was alone in the fashioning of the ied, and everything goes into the production ofa bomb everything goes into the production of a bomb and then the execution, i suspect that he has associates, if not handlers, and i think that is why the threat level was raised from severe to critical, and why we have reports that the defence ministry forces are being called in to help in dealing with the terrorist situation. so your perspective is this sort of device could not be made by somebody acting on their own? yes. we hear the united states a few years back, i think in 2010, with the attempt to explode a device in times square in new york city, and that individual was not able to do so, because he lack
