but things haven't gone to plan — and dutch side ajax are now close to offering him a way out asjoe lynskey reports: just six months since he swapped the premier league for saudi arabia a move that turned heads, now looks a move that turned heads, now looks a move that turned heads, now looks a move that has turned sour. jordan henderson is a current england international and he put that at risk for an important weekly wage of £700,000. the salary was extraordinary, the results were underwhelming. henderson's al—ettifaq are on a nine run windless run into one match in october was watched by around 700 fans. the centre of struggle at the heat and humidity and the criticism heat and humidity and the criticism he has received for his move from the country. under talks with this club he has being freed up to move on. he hasjoined the dutch side, i asked. at on. he has “oined the dutch side, i asked. �* , ., , ., asked. at this moment we understand that they they — asked. at this moment we understand that they they will _ asked. at this moment we understand that they they will make _ asked. at this moment we understand that they they will make him - asked. at this moment we understand that they they will make him the - that they they will make him the best played player at ajax. that

6:32 pm
at ajax his hope was to lift up a club and to rebuild his career. the last trophyjordan henderson won at liverpool was the fa cup — tonight his former side will be watching to see whether it's bristol rovers or norwich city that they end up playing in the fourth round. it's one of three fa cup replays this evening. blackpool will be hoping to pull of an upset against nottingham forest — having held the premier league side at the city ground ten days ago. conor macnamara is at bloomfield road as part of tonight's bbc radio 5 live commentary team. 37 league places between them, blackpool and nottingham forest played out an exciting draw in the original theme at the city ground to set up this replay. a black bulova leave one wind to win two goals in front but premier league nottingham forest babbling back making it even adding some extra spice come up blackpool at limited in force from the competition at the stage last
6:33 pm
season. as you can see, the ground staff have been working hard to make sure the pitch is playable on a cold night here in blackpool. they have had the best home for a record of any team in league when the seasons they hope this home advantage will be a factor. nothing in for a record of any team in league when the seasons they hope this home advantage will be a factor. nottingham forest avenue only had to away wins themselves all season. here is an interesting one, the nottingham forest manager has never been beaten in an fa cups game by a team below the premier league. with a full, three on bbc radio 5 live, i will be alongside the former kick off there at 7:45. as it is at goodison park where there's an all premier league fa cup replay between everton and crystal palace. neither could find a goal a couple of weeks ago — but there will of course have to be a winner tonight and our reporter adam cottier will be watching. obviously a lot of concern amongst the african supporters coming here tonight to watch this fa cups third round replay. those who have spoken to have expressed their worries
6:34 pm
about the temple point deduction and the appeal against that which has yet to be heard, of course. i was the concerns as well above average in�*s on the pitch form. no wins in the last six games in all competitions. they have not scored in the last three. the 0—0 crystal palace 30 days ago and had dominic sent off. available for this game today because that red card was later presented. crystal palace and resilient form at the moment and given that they have only lost one of their last five games. incredible draws its manchester city and brighton. the winners of this replay here tonight will play luton town at home in the fourth round. full commentary available on bbc radio 5 live sports extra. 0n the cold of merseyside to the heat of australia. next to the australian open tennis. joe salisbury, neal skupski
6:35 pm
and lloyd glasspool all progressed in the doubles earlier, whilst the british players play in the singles tomorrow. defending champion novak djokovic was among those on court today. a confrontation with a spectator was the spark he said he needed to fightback and beat the home favourite alexei popyrin. at one stage it looked like a shock exit might be on the cards for the defending champion as rob heath reports. 0nly only once in ia grand slam matches had novak djokovic beaten by an australian. after losing the first set, alexei popyrin�*s hopes of joining in that exclusive group look slim. the second, things change. novak djokovic slightly under the weather, health—wise. he looked unusually sluggish. alexei popyrin looked inspired. maybe thoughts of an ozzie victory were not such a leave of fate. alexei popyrin the better player in the third as well, four times he had a set point but novak djokovic inevitably proved unbreakable. the scenes bothered by his wrist in fourth and then
6:36 pm
distracted by a heckler in the crowd. novak djokovic invited the individual to have a chat. match temporarily on pause. seamlessly back into play mode though, alexei popyrin crumbled. as well as tenuous genius, novak djokovic has resilience as well. slightly unwell, but slightly closer to a record extending 25th grand slam. doing what he does so often there, novak djokovic. things were much more straight forward for the women's defending champion today however. aryna sabalenka, the number two seed serving here — seeing off the czech 16 —year—old brenda fruhvirtova in straight sets. a bit of a fortune with the net cord on match point but she is safely through into the third round in little over an hour. i'm not thinking about confidence i just tried to play my bass and if it goes to toolsets i'm happy to win in two
6:37 pm
sets and if it goes to three sets, i don't care, ijust sets and if it goes to three sets, i don't care, i just want to focus on myself and fight for every point. it's not like this too much to give me confidence, i have to be ready for anything so i'm trying to focus on myself and focus on bringing the best tennis. but the champion in 2018 caroline wozniacki, playing her second major event since returning last year from having two children, was beaten in three sets by russian qualifier maria timofeeva, ranked i70th in the world with the biggest win of her career so far. when you have the family here and you bring everyone you want to win even more because you want to stay longer that have to move around. so it definitely sucks and it is disappointing. ifelt it definitely sucks and it is disappointing. i felt like this was my match to win and i didn't and i obviously sit here with a very
6:38 pm
disappointing feeling because looking back i feel like the match slid out of my hands and at this point there is nothing i can do about it. but obviously, playing in about it. but obviously, playing in a grand slam and you want to keep winning. the story of the day belonged to another russian, 16—year—old mirra andreeva — one of the sport's rising stars — knocking out the two time wimbledon finalist and number 6 seed ons jabeur. she could barely believe it. jabeur, totally out of sorts, blown away in sa minutes 6—0, 6—2. i don't think that i achieved something incredible. so i have time, still, to do that. so, sometimes when i am lying in bed i can overthink a little bit but the next morning i am totally fine. i am
6:39 pm
16. why do i have to think about the rankings. i am going a bit higher so my goal is to go higher and higher, maybe for a little bit, but still higher. next to an astonishing t20 match betewen india and afghanistan in bengaluru. india batted first and scored an imposing 212 but afghanistan — thanks to gulbadin naib�*s scrambled two of the last ball — managed to level the scores and tie the match. that forced a super over. each side looking to score most runs of 6 balls. india needed two to win but could only manage a scrambled single. so another super over. this time afghanistan chasing, but they lost their two wickets after just three balls to leave india victors. they also won the series 3—0. time now for some of the days
6:40 pm
other sport stories. west indies bowler shamarjoseph had the dream start to his test career — dismissing australian steve smith with his very first ball. he's just the 23rd player to do that in test history. the aussies finished the day on 59 for 2, 129 runs behind the windies. brentford striker ivan toney has said he feels "free" following the end of his eight—month ban from football. he's now able to play after a suspension for breaking football association gambling rules. peter o'mahony has been named ireland captain for this year's six nations title defence following the retirement ofjohnny sexton. the munster flanker leads a 3a—man squad named by head coach andy farrell. jamie george will captain england in the six nations in the absence of owen farrell.
6:41 pm
it heralds a new era for english rugby with farrell ruling himself out of this year's championship to prioritise his and his family's mental wellbeing. billy vunipola and kyle sinckler are among the other notable omissions from today's squad announcement, but henry slade and luke cowan—dickie are recalled. england coach steve borthwick has been speaking to the bbc�*s rugby union podcast. owen farrell is a unique character and a unique leader and i think what we are both big supporters and fans of what owen farrell brings to a team. so it is not about trying to replace, i think it is about, as i said earlier, i was asked if i had givenjeannie any advice and i said, i want him to lead as you ——jamie george. what i ask as a coach is give the players enough room to lead. what was interesting is watching a wind during that world cup and how he helped others grow and give other room to leaders in
6:42 pm
the team —— watching owen farrell grow. the team has been criticised in the past for not having leaders. i see a load of leaders. in different ways orforms. i see a load of leaders. in different ways or forms. so i see a load of leaders. in different ways orforms. so i have no doubt that they will develop together. it will be a different dynamic and it will be a dynamic that will help build this team. you can listen to _ that will help build this team. you can listen to the _ that will help build this team. you can listen to the rugby union podcast on bbc sounds. and finally tonight, they've had nearly two months to prepare and now we're just few days away from one of the scottish cup ties of the season. highland league side buckie thistle go to celtic — who are four leagues above — in the fourth round this weekend. so how are they feeling about facing the team who've won the competition more than anyone else, john watson's been to find out. buckie is buzzing.

6:44 pm
celtic's name came out and our's came out. you can't explain it. how is it that buckie comes to be mentioned in the stephen king novel? stephen king was looking for a scottish football team with reference to an edinburgh school to feature in the book, and for some reason he liked the name buckie thistle. he's got a kit and has sent signed copies. volunteers like these keep it going. i enjoy my football, i sit by it and see plays through it to different clubs. i enjoyed every saturday. cheers to that. cheers, guys.

6:52 pm
50 minutes and then it is about eight minutes for each actor. once those have all been voted on and assuming they won't be any changes and we don't think there will be, then we moved what is called the third reading and that is another hour of debate where people get up and talk, generally, about why they are for or against the bill and after that hour, there is then the final vote which is the third reading vote. but even if it goes through at that point, it is not the end of it because then it all moves, the it actually moves to the house of lords just up the quarter and there are an awful lot of peers who are very unhappy about this bill. they will again look at it in great detail and try to make changes of their own. ., �* ., ,, ., , their own. you've talked about this but i think their own. you've talked about this but i think it _ their own. you've talked about this but i think it bears _ their own. you've talked about this but i think it bears repeating - but i think it bears repeating come the fact that we are in an election yearin the fact that we are in an election year in the uk, it is important. how is that likely to change the minds and change the votes of some of those mps this evening? might they do things differently to perhaps they would do if it were midterm? possibly. there are some who said
6:53 pm
this evening they feel that this is, the confidence vote. that does the bell starting for the first but to take place which will take about 15 minutes. so there are some who are very worried about that and they think they have to support the prime minister even though they did not agree with all of the detail of this bill. others have said to me, they are concerned about the timing, it will take a few weeks for this to the house of lords and then it could even end up back in the comments and go back and forth a bit. then you get to the point where you might then start trying to deport asylum—seekers and then, a lot of people anticipate that it will get tested in the courts again. so you could be heading to near a general election where you are finding out whether, who is right, is the bill going to work or not, we will find out some point in that point could be very close to a general election. finally and briefly, how central is this particular promise, to the government's offering? aha, this particular promise, to the government's offering?- this particular promise, to the government's offering? a lot of eo - le in government's offering? a lot of people in the — government's offering? a lot of people in the lavatory - government's offering? a lot of people in the lavatory mps - government's offering? a lot of| people in the lavatory mps have said, this is a matter of trust. he

has made this a priority, rishi sunak, and as we were saying that, he said he has would stop the boats. not much wiggle room there. an issue that he wants a jewel. the government would say that it is not just the uk government trying to deal with us. they say that there are other countries in europe and elsewhere who want to deal with this issue and they are looking very closely at what is going on here to see if this idea of sending people to a third country, if that works, or not. they say if it does, they think a lot of other countries will follow. . ~ think a lot of other countries will follow. ., ~' , ., think a lot of other countries will follow. ., ,, , ., , , follow. thank you. our deputy olitical follow. thank you. our deputy political editor _ follow. thank you. our deputy political editor there. - follow. thank you. our deputy political editor there. we - follow. thank you. our deputy political editor there. we willl follow. thank you. our deputy - political editor there. we will keep in touch over the next couple of hours. as those amendments go through. you can see there, it is always notable when that bell rings as vicki was describing, the division bell rings and the comments chamber starts to empty out. you conceived the full stretch of those green benches. mps go off to the separate lobbies to cast their votes and come back in. you will see it start to fill up again. as the amendment happen and as the boat happens as well, we will keep you

right up to date with it. here on bbc news, he could follow as well on the bbc news website development on our live page as well. stay with us here on bbc news. hello there. the met office amber snow and ice warnings remains in force across northern scotland and the northern isles tonight and into much of tomorrow. these snow showers will come in thick and fast with some significant accumulations of snow in places. could lead to some issues by the morning period. elsewhere, it's largely clear that very cold and very frosty, probably the coldest night of this cold snap. so this weather fronts accentuating the snow showers across northern scotland and the northern isles. stronger northerly wind which allows some drifting and blizzard conditions. and we'll see further snow showers developing around some north sea coast, northern ireland and through the irish sea. anywhere where we have wintry showers ice will be a significant risk.

for most, it's dry and clear and very cold. north to south across the country could be down to —15 celsius central northern scotland. so it's a very cold start to thursday. there will be a lot of sunshine around, but wintry showers continue around. coastal areas could see a dusting of snow across some of these eastern counties. but the heaviest of the snow, again, falling across northern scotland to the northern isles. again, drifting and blizzard conditions perhaps in excess of ten centimetres of fresh snow by the time we reach the end of thursday. and it'll be a very cold day. a slightly stronger wind for all areas, so it will feel bitterly cold, i think. and then through thursday night, we start to lose the showers from the east coast as the wind changes. directions are more westerly. so its northern, western scotland which will continue to see the snow and the ice. elsewhere, clearer skies and other cold nights come, but maybe not quite as cold as what we're expecting tonight. subtle changes into friday. this area of high pressure starts to build in. so a lot of fine weather, but it cuts off the arctic northern and brings us a westerly. so i think it'll be noticeably
6:57 pm
less cold on friday. but we'll continue with snow across northern and western scotland, certainly over the high ground, maybe wintry mix down to sea level and it will be breezier. so another cold day to come here. but you'll notice further south we've lost those blue colours, a—6 degrees. then that area of high pressure pulls away into the weekend and allows low pressure off the atlantic to take over. so a very different feel to the weather through the weekend and indeed into next week. wetter, windier and much milder. but the combination of mild air with snowmelt and rain could lead to some localised flooding. so stay tuned.
