britain's alex tilley and jessica anderson failed to complete two runs. now, he's the man credited largely with creating some of manchester united's greatest generation of youngster. eric harrison, the man who helped build more than a decade of dominance, producing the famous class of 92, died today at the age of 81, and the players whose careers he created were some of those to pay tribute, richard askam reports. a special presentation to eric harrison. eric harrison was much more than a coach, at the heart of manchester united dna for two and a half decades, he shaped the talent and more that the personalities of some of english football's l famous young players. including the famous class of 92. he was the one who

taught us to play, taught us how to handle ourselves on and off the pitch. before moving onto manchester united, he spent several years it everton, the last three is assistant manager. but it was united where he made his mark, demanding the same standards of his young players as ferguson did of the first team. this is him talking about him in 2001.m wasn'tjust a technical is him talking about him in 2001.m wasn't just a technical development, it was mental toughness he gave them also. given them the mentality to survive at that level. eric harrison was certainly tough, all of those who played under him have said so, but he was also bighearted and earned respect. you have to be a genius to last for 20 years and be

humble and have work ethic and respect did not get carried with yourself. that is the biggest thing that he was, he was definitely an unbelievable maker of men. clearly an inspiration to other coaches, who joined the coaching staff and went on to become sir alex ferguson's first team coach. just bringing those players into the field, but showing all those years after that and the success those players bought to manchester united for so many yea rs. to manchester united for so many years. so many heartfelt tributes from the football world that's all from sportsday.

coming up in a moment, the papers. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are polly mackenzie, who's director of the think—tank, demos, and the deputy editor at the daily express, michael booker. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. the metro reports shamima begum, the woman who left britain in 2015 to become a jihadi bride, and is now pregnant, wants to return home to have her child on the nhs. the times, which broke the story — say the family of the london schoolgirl have appealed for her to be shown mercy. according to the the daily mail —

britain could be forced to take her back, and dozens of otherjihadi brides. the i says isis child brides face arrest if they return and will have agree to co—operate with security services. the daily telegraph says the united states is planning to send british i.s. fighters to guantanamo bay — amid frustration at the uk s failure to take responsibility for its home—grown terrorists. the financial times calls today's commons brexit vote a substantial defeat for theresa may and her brexit plan b. they say it further undermines her credibility as she seeks to renegotiate her exit deal with the eu. the gaurdian describes it as an embarrassing defeat at the hands of hardline eurosceptics, plunging her hopes of uniting the conservatives around a renegotiated brexit deal into chaos. and the daily mirror leads with research suggesting just two diet drinks a day could put women
