to the top of the table above arsenal with one game to go. to do that, they'll have to score their first premier league goal at the tottenham hotspur stadium. but would spurs fans mind that, of course if city lose, that would hand the advantage to north london rivals arsenal. the tottenham manager wouldn't entertain the thought that the home fans won't be right behind them. reporter: a proportion of your fans won't want you to win this game. - how do you feel about that and the potential atmosphere it might create? "a proportion of our fans?" what does that mean? what proportion? difficult to say. really? what, 50%? 20%? 1%? just give me a rough estimate in your mind. i don't know. you don't know? 0k. so let's answer a question we don't know the answer to. know what real success looks like. real success looks like trophies. anything else in between, bragging rights, whatever it is, is absolutely meaningless.
1:35 pm
as a team we play twice this season and see what changed lately. different players are playing. and know that, you know, the mindset is easy. so in terms of with a win, we are going to win the premier league and this is what you have to do. raphael varane will leave manchester united when his contract runs out at the end of the season. the 31—year—old defender who won the world cup with france in 2018, joined from real madrid three years ago for an initialfee of about £34 million and has made 93 appearances. he helped united win the league cup last season when they beat newcastle united in the final. millie bright is back in the england squad for their next round of european championship qualifiers. the chelsea defender captained england at last year's world cup but has missed five months of this season with a knee injury. in mental health awareness week, she's told us about how she's coped

and how important it's been to get support. this to get support. season has been extremely difficult this season has been extremely difficult for the mental side. i don't want to accept that being injured and i don't accept i have missed the last thing r rate season which is nothing that has been hard to take on not being able to contribute to the team when i can see my team struggling so this season more than ever has been extremely difficult. it's just like i ready to call a day? which i haven't told anyone but it has kick started a conversation and make sure you get support because it's easy to fight with people around you than doing it alone. arsenal women will have the emirates stadium as their main home from next season. they averaged just over 52,000 in six wsl games there this season, they wll play eight league games there in the next campaign and three group games in the women's champions league... if arsenal manage to reach that stage, and any

1:38 pm
what that must feel like, you know, to bejimmy anderson, the greatest bowler england's ever had. england international billy vunipola will leave saracens at the end —— and his brother... of the season after 11 years at the club. vunipola is regarded as one of their greatest players after winning five premierships and three european titles. the club say that he's leaving �*for a new challenge' but it hasn't been announced whether that's in england or abroad. the man who was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter over the death of ice hockey player adamjohnson has been re—bailed. johnson, died last october, after being struck in the neck with a skate during a game in sheffield. one of his teamates, who was on the ice, says he'll never be able to forget what he saw. victor bjorkung, who played with johnson at the nottingham panthers, left the club shortly afterjohnson died, admitting he found it too hard to be a part of the team, following the incident. i do think about it every day, more or less.
1:39 pm
obviously more when... i mean, my season is done now, so i don't think about it maybe as much, but obviously when i'm still playing and i put my maybe neck guard on it for practice orfor a game, or even when i'm out there skating, like you think about it. you're never going to get away from that. that's something that's going to stick with me for the rest of my life. american taylor fritz advanced to the last eight of the rome masters by beating bulgarian grigor dimitrov, 6—2, 6—7, 6—1 it finished in rome in the last hour. fritz will play the winner of the match between german alexander zverev and portuguese nuno borges which is taking place at the moment. the american has already beaten fabio fognini and sebastian korda. artistic swimmers izzy thorpe and kate shortman hope to "carry on the legacy" of their mothers after being confirmed as team gb's entrants for this summer's 0lympics. thorpe's mum karen competed
