not at all. —— i have a betterfeeling for pep guardiola. cristiano ronaldo equalled a long standing record forjuventus — as they beat fiorentina 3—0 in serie a. the first of his two goals came courtesy of this hand ball — var confirming it was a penalty which ronaldo converted. that goal ensured he scored in nine successive league games forjuve, making him the first player to do that since david trezeguet in 2005. and he scored his second penalty of the match ten minutes from the end to double the lead. inter milan move up to second place in serie a with a 2—0 win at udinese. romelu lu ka ku struck twice in the second half for antonio conte's side — inter continue their impressive run away from home — they trailjuventus by three points. lazio are third after a big win over spal. the league's top scorer ciro immobile got two goals. his second saw him through on goal and then having to work hard to eventually beat the keeper. that takes his total for the season to 25. there were two goals as well for ecuadorian felipe caicedo, thi

well, pep guardiola's contract expires in june 2021. i think there is already uncertainty with regards to his future. i think he is alluding to that himself. i think will be very difficult for him to want to take on a project if he knows that in 2021 there is no prospect of champions league football for at least a year. i'm sure that will be part of the decision process that he will undertake with his advisers. and also with the club itself. thanks very much for talking to is this lunchtime. the headlines on bbc news... the uk braces itself for storm dennis — weather warnings are in place for many parts of the uk — and the army has been deployed in west yorkshire. manchester city say they'll appeal against their ban from european competitions for the next two seasons — after they were found to have broken financial fair play rules. the uk has held talks with china over giving beijing's state—owned railway builder a role in constructing the hs2 rail link. the french health minister has confirmed that an elderly chinese tourist in

it does leave question over the future of pep guardiola, their manager and the futures of some of their star players. what this relates to as the breaking of financial fair play rules by uefa which were put in place a number of years ago to essentially ensure clubs in attempt to live within their means, ensure they are not spending more than what manchester city are accused of doing is inflating a number of sponsorship deals to make it look as if they are bringing in more money than perhaps they are. it relates specifically to those sponsorship deals, sponsored through etihad airways which as we know a company that is known by the owners of manchester city. whilst the clubs has said it will appeal to the clubs has said it will appeal to the court of appeal to export, you wonder where this leaves their immediate future, with regards to pep guardiola, entering the last year of his contract. will he want to stay on if the club are no longer playing in the champions league next season? well the players, the likes of sergio aguero, some of the other star players. will they want to stay if th

it leaves questions over the immediate futures of manager pep guardiola and some of their leading players. pep guardiola has stated he expects to see out his contract which runs until next year but there is speculation the development may change things. i spoke to the football finance expert dr rob wilson earlier. they might have expected the fine but i don't think they expected the two—year ban. but this will have implications for other teams across european football, their player recruitment strategy, not to mention whether the manager will stay on. do they will have a team that does not play champions league football, for example? it makes it very difficult, murky waters to wade through. to really have a similar fight, what they have said is they have a big sponsorship deal with etihad airways who sponsor their shirts and that kind of thing and instead of doing a transaction between manchester city, so let's call that organisation a and etihad organisation bay, the money has come from other organisations, which is probably owned by the ownership of the football clu b owned by the own

pep guardiola's made his own mark on british football. both he and jose mourinho have been planar coaches. but this year, the premier league has had its greatest change — var. it brought an incident in this match hardly seen before. here, city's sergio aguero went down in the box. the referee said no penalty, but the game drifted certainly for two minutes before this. the video assistance had watched the replays and said foul. but perhaps the weight and the novelty got to build a condo in. his penalty was saved, but the challenge on the rebound brought another check. this time, no foul. that was the peak of the first half aware city should have scored. soon they would have even more regrets. first, alexander was was sent off. then with a man advantage, spurs worked the ball to their brand—new stryker. this is steven burgoyne, a dutchman on debut showing why he's worth £27 million. and having weather to storm, spurs we re and having weather to storm, spurs were inspired. their best win of the season, crowned by arguably their best pla

question marks aplenty about manager pep guardiola even before this verdict came out. what motivation do they now have? the premier league's out of reach — even if they win the champions league for the first time — it won't matter... it wouldn't make me want to run for the exit, it would make me very frustrated —— it would make me want to run for the exit. it would make me disappointed with the outcome of the decision. but i think you look at some of those young players at manchester city, i think they will be determined to try and win this competition. with manchester city. very fascinating to see if they can win the champions league this season. is this shaking up the order of english and european football? and what about their future recruitment? you hear of players not wanting to join manchester united or arsenal because they're not playing champions league football. would city now be the same? has the brand been tarnished? the biggest problem, manchester city have is the bad name. once you become a bad name in football, a lot of players don't want to join

pep guardiola's made his own mark on english football. both he and jose mourinho have been pioneer coaches. but this year, the premier league has had its greatest change, var. it brought an incident in this match hardly seen before. here, city's sergio aguero went down in the box. the referee said no penalty, but the game drifted uncertainly for almost two minutes before this. that looks like it is a penaltly. the video assistants had watched the replays and said foul. but perhaps the weight and the novelty got to ilkay gundogan. his penalty was saved, but the challenge on the rebound brought another check. this time, no foul. that was the peak of a first half where city should have scored. soon they would have even more regrets. first, oleksandr zinchenko was was sent off. then with a man advantage, spurs worked the ball to their brand—new striker. this is steven bergwijn, a dutchman on debut showing why he's worth £27 million. and having weathered a storm, spurs were inspired. their best win of the season, crowned by arguably their b
