10:37 pm
he is not coping with that pressure. very long on eagle and short run expectation. i think he's second is like a petulant toddler. he's got to go. it is not working. as he has a lwa ys go. it is not working. as he has always done, he continues to provoke debate. the football's boss remains a result on the pitch. three second—half goals from these birds site at old trafford. back—to—back defeats for manchester united. a sobering sight for the club's hierarchy and of those vans who could bear to watch to the end. perhaps then, not the ideal day for another marketing push for british football's biggest brand. launching their new paint away kit today. but mourinho remains the man most want to mention. i think they've lost respect for him so hopefully if they get someone else, i will get more out of there, that it was respect them and they will start playing better. this is one of the worst
10:38 pm
foot dollars that we've had. he supporters and as a club, you can only do so much and so can mourinho. if we are 20th by christmas, they maybe start talking about that sort of stuff. but if not, let him run with the squad and let him see what he can do. but whatever mourinho's future at united, defiance won't stop people talking. adam wild, bbc news. let's have a look at some of today's other headlines, and... jamie vardy and gary cahill have both effectively retired from international football. they've both asked not to be selected for future england squads, but say they're "not shutting the door" and would consider playing again if there was an injury crisis. england's jonny bairstow says he hope to keep wicket in the fourth test against india at southampton this week. that's despite breaking a finger in the third test at trent bridge. and one of the biggest stars in american football has signed one of the biggest contract in the nfl's history. this is odell beckham junior who plays for the new york giants. he's a wide—reciever, and his new contract is worth almost £75 million over

the next three seasons. tomorrow is a potentially huge day for scottish football. the scottish football association has to decide if the national stadium is going to remain at hampden park in glasgow, or move to murrayfield in edinburgh. as ever, it's a case of weighing up history over cost. as out scottish football reporter chris mclaughlin explains. it isa it is a stadium with many stories to tell. this the famous european cup final of 1960. real madrid seven — three. but its upkeep is proving too costly for the sfe. tomorrow they could vote stay or move elsewhere. costly for the sfe. tomorrow they could vote stay or move elsewherelj could vote stay or move elsewhere.” think it is one of these heavy winter coats. in the stadium's museum there is a man who cannot bear the thought of a move away.”

am embedded in this place. but as i said to you before, that is not the reason i'm supporting hampden, because i've criticise the space on many occasion. i do so because it is so many occasion. i do so because it is so much embedded in ourfootballing culture, to have it disappear would bea culture, to have it disappear would be a grievous loss. i want to play for scotland. i want to play for scotland. this is the other option. a move 50 miles east of long pmh motorway to the home of scottish by. motorway to the home of scottish rugby. the sru have been working ha rd to rugby. the sru have been working hard to sell it. it is a bigger stadium and could be financially or attractive. the stadium itself, 67.5 thousand packed in there. the anthems get the hairs on the back of your neck standing up. it is an incredible place to play sports. the fa ns incredible place to play sports. the fans are split. hampden's has done.
10:41 pm
i think murrayfield. i think we should play in glasgow at hampden. it is our national stadium and it has been for years. it is the dilemma that is dividing a nation. a decision that could change and national game forever. studio: a big decision. and before we go, just time to show you the fifa president gianni infantino meeting president trump in the oval office. yellow card and red guards. yellow ca rd yellow card and red guards. yellow card is a warning. right. and when you want to pick out someone... laughter that is the fee for president. —— fifa president you meeting the us president. and sending him off, promoting the 2026 world cup of course. for which president trump will no longer be the president of the us. even if he is reelected. that is all from sports day.

pensions regulator urging some company schemes to offer reduced benefits. the metro's top story is about to police mean being attacked while making arrests in east london. the guardian's leaders theresa may suggesting she will fight the next generation. the daily express also features the prime minister, who is promising to deliver brexit. and the the i meet on the breakthrough of the treatment of heart attacks. let's ta ke the treatment of heart attacks. let's take a look at some pages in more detail. why don't we start with the daily telegraph. a picture of theresa may and the prison cell on robben island in south africa when nelson mandela was imprisoned, of course, but the headline is all about boris. in that picture, we have both been to the island. not together though. not together. i don't remember it being beautifully decorated in cream paint when i was there. anyway, back to boris. basically the pm is saying i'm
10:44 pm
fighting for the next election, which is probably in about four years' time. there was speculation that actually boris is planning an alternative vision of brexit for the conservative party conference which you will be going to. interesting that it says vision of brexit. it does not say plan for brexit. just a vision. she is so not scared of borisjohnson she has gone all the way to africa before she has been able to say she is not geared of him. but she has given it some good confidence on in africa. she is saying i am in this for the long term, i want to deliver the brexit the british people voted for. she is saying all the right things which is what she tends to do. when she does the strips. but there is the story that boris is landing this. it will catch them out. with this
10:45 pm
alternative vision. it is a vision and plan? that is what people want to see and that is the argument against the brexiteers. that they are all very good at coming at the prime minister and saying your band is rubbish. what are they actually thinking? it will be interesting to see if boris does do this ambush at the conference, whether it is a land. and at the conference she is seeing a softer brexit than you imagine he is going to come up with. and she is saying she wants the co nfe re nce and she is saying she wants the conference to focus on their achievements, and health, education, housing. maybe a shore conference. well, you will want to talk about anything but brexit. particularly wants to focus on helping the young people on the housing ladder. but i don't think that is happening at the moment. and he helped to buy scheme, the latest research i saw was saying it was focusing on people who really had enough money to go on with and not the poorer people that are getting it. interesting talking
