10:37 pm
to respect his right to work. i was here for 13 years as a player, deep feeling for the club and i went to manchester city for a year at the end of my career but chelsea is something very close to my heart hence why i‘m so proud to manage this club and why i would not manage totte n ha m , this club and why i would not manage tottenham, and that‘s no disrespect to tottenham, i have lots of your totte n ha m to tottenham, i have lots of your tottenham and arsenal fans but there arejust some things tottenham and arsenal fans but there are just some things you wouldn‘t do. not because of your feelings about the club but what chelsea has given me over my time as a player and now. and it‘sjust certainly not on my list. welljose mourinho‘s return has certainly got everyone talking. including the man who replaced him at manchester united nearly a year ago — ole gunnar solskjaer. he says his arrival back to the premier league will be a "circus". and has given his reaction to new tottenham managers comments on social media suggesting that the united midfielder, nemanja matic could be reunited with mourinho for third time.
10:38 pm
no, that was... that‘s not the part of being boring. when it is like this, you likejose coming back and it will be a spectacle and a circus, and nemanja‘s got a sense of humour. two of the biggest clubs in south america have arrived in peru to find out who will become the continent‘s club champion. the libertadores cup final will also provide south america‘s entry to the club world cup next month which also includes liverpool. defending champions river plate of argentina and the brazilian side flamengo trained on the pitch in lima, ahead of tomorrow‘s match. flamengo are looking to become the first team to complete a league and libertadores double since santos in 1963. that was when pele was in their side. you can watch the final. it‘s live on bbc two tomorrow night. kick—off is at 8 o‘clock. let‘s have a look at some

10:40 pm
now, if you‘re scared of heights, or diving into water from a great height, this might be your worst nightmare as we‘re going to end the programme with championship well divers, orlando duke and rhiannan iffland leaping into india‘s famous toorji step well. the pair took it in turns to take the 20—metre dive into the pool, which is 300—years old. duke has previously dived off an iceberg in antarctica and in front of the statue of liberty. absolutley terrying. but an incredible feeling as well i can imagine. that‘s all from me on sportsday. there is of course more sport throughout the weekend. right now though, it‘s time for the papers. bye for now.
10:41 pm
hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me is the director of polling company, deltapoll joe twyman and journalist at broadcaster, caroline frost. many of tomorrow‘s front pages are already in. the times leads on jeremy corbyn‘s announcement in tonight‘s bbc leaders‘ debate — the he will stay neutral in a second brexit referendum. the telegraph has the same story — that as prime minister mr corbyn would negotiate a new exit deal with brussels, but then refuse to campaign to leave. after the conviction of the killer of british backpacker grace millane,
10:42 pm
—— meanwhile the guardian says boris johnson was attacked by members of the audience. the daily express said the audience. the daily express said the government could have a £1.6 billion boost for research. for bringing a cure dementia closer. and tomorrow‘s i newspaper renames the duke of york the "duke of nothing", as he stands down from his role at his business charity. what did you think of the british audience grilling our mps? what did you think? i thought they were pretty impressive and thatjust shows that when it comes to really putting our leaders on the sport and potential aspirational leaders, that the british government really do know what‘s going on. i think eve ryo ne know what‘s going on. i think everyone says you‘re suffering from massive brexit fatigue but if it means that we are informed, angry in
10:43 pm
some places where we feel they role has been pulled over our eyes and not shy to hold our leaders to account. we highlighted the major wea knesses account. we highlighted the major weaknesses that the leaders had. whetherjeremy corbyn and brexit borisjohnson whetherjeremy corbyn and brexit boris johnson trust, whetherjeremy corbyn and brexit borisjohnson trust, whether it is jo swinson on her track record, none performed really well and this will be about to perform is worst. are we surprised as mr cobb and‘s perform that leads. it‘s an interesting stance to take. branding yourself as neutral on something so divisive. perhaps ofjeremy corbyn had done the six months ago or two yea rs had done the six months ago or two years ago, it would have been seen asa years ago, it would have been seen as a real positive and set itself apart from everyone else but now we‘ve seen him dilly—dallying for so many mums desperately not trying to lose those voters and is party, not
10:44 pm
trying to lose those lead verges on the north and now it seems as though quite rightly at least two of the papers have said it‘s a man who just cannot make up his mind and so has tried to make a virtue of that. most people are seeing through it for the wea kness people are seeing through it for the weakness it is. this is new information technically speaking in the previous event of the readers debate where it just the previous event of the readers debate where itjust that the previous event of the readers debate where it just that two the previous event of the readers debate where itjust that two of them, he was repeatedly refusing to a nswer them, he was repeatedly refusing to answer a noun them, he was repeatedly refusing to answera noun in them, he was repeatedly refusing to answer a noun in light of that, he has to come out with an answer if not a position and so he adopting this neutral answer where the news that boris johnson this neutral answer where the news that borisjohnson is not trustworthy is perhaps not a new development in the same way. what did you make of the reaction to the neutral line? there was a great collective sigh? i don't think that is an audience reaction, i think thatis is an audience reaction, i think that is the nation reaction. this has been a weak spot forjeremy
10:45 pm
corbyn consistently and he has refused to come down on one side of the other. now coming out and saying, no, iwill the other. now coming out and saying, no, i will be neutral, looking as we do at the data, i suspect that we will fail to engage with either side of the argument which will not resonate well with leave voters in leave leaning constituencies that you want to hold onto, nor will it resonate with remainder leaning constituencies in the voters there who want him to come out and unequivocally be in favour of remaining so and attempting to please all the people all the time, you may find that he has pleased none of the people at all. that manifesto was give to other matters, brexit uk part of that. we saw that when it was just the two of them earlier in the week. borisjohnson was the two of them earlier in the week. boris johnson was hammering the two of them earlier in the week. borisjohnson was hammering home the point that he is the man to get brexit done and desperate to pull the discussion away from things he holds dear. many people think his agenda, whether he says he is
