but i think it will be manchester city and liverpool. manchester city and liverpool.ster united, out of the conversation when it comes to the top four places, disappointing for them but they can reach the champions league. huge game against ajax in the europa league final and they play crystal palace this weekend. lots of people have opinions aboutjose mourinho and manchester united, what is yours? put me on the spot! i have been disappointed with the way he has conducted his press conferences in the last month two. the constant excuses, i don't think i am seeing any positivity coming from him. he might be filling that himself, but the strength of the united squad, the strength of the united squad, the strength of the united squad, the strength and depth, they have a huge squad, huge budget and they have one of the biggest budget in the premier league. they should be able to cope with the demands of challenging on a few fronts. that is what managers demand, that is what owners demand. to throw everything at the europa league, it will come down to that one game, i woul

manchester city and dortmund has a way of looking at monaco and say we will try and outscore you.mbappe is difficult. he broke the record for henry at the youngest age ever. that has led to the comparisons she the new henry. he has a physicality menry maybe didn't have. doesn't have that flair that henri had when he was starting out. but he is a fear some player, as far as juventus going, because they are so good defensively, this isa they are so good defensively, this is a team who didn't concede a single goal in two legs against barcelona and knocked them out. it is easy to say attack versus defence, i don't thinkjuve will make the mistakes dortmund made or manchester city: i think we will see a counter attacking display and they have their own striker who will cause problems too. waiting for them, surely real madrid, there is another leg to play against atletico but it was another ronaldo show. do i have to talk to you or can ijust watch the goals. unbelievable. i saw a bit of him at euro 2016. he do very much running any more, so i don't think you can still have that debate, w

we've got another fantastic challenger manchester city and we are challenger manchester city and we awe're not just are really looking forward to it because we're notjust going there to ta ke because we're notjust going there to take part, we are looking to go there and try to win the game and bring the cup back to birmingham. well, england captain steph houghton will be leading the stars of manchester city as they try and win the trophy for the first time. you always dream of playing at wembley and captaining your side and ever since ijoined this club, it's about trying to win the fa cup and we are one step closer to doing that, so this is the one we have been trying to get ever since i've been trying to get ever since i've been here. we've come so close to reaching the final. we've been knocked out in the semifinal the last three years, and it's disappointing because you get so close to being at wembley. but that was one of the focuses, along with the spring series, was to try to get to wembley and we finally did that. now it's all about that next step and getting our hands on the t

arsenal, liverpool and cheslea in their three previous wins but they came completekly unstuck at manchester citying for much more than just a spot in the champions league but the manchester city season is now based onjust manchester city season is now based on just that. crystal palace still have one eye on the other end of the table. the other wasn‘t on dyfed silver everly on. he ghosted into the box unnoticed to finish it to put them ahead in under two minutes, not what sam allardyce had planned for with safety from relegation still not sure it. vincent kompany didn‘t offer any assistance to that. manchester city doubled their assistance —— advantage. the attem pts assistance —— advantage. the atte m pts to assistance —— advantage. the attempts to keep kevin de bruyne‘s shot out some adopt the afternoon. raheem sterling got in on the act before they fifth goal from a fifth different goal—scorer. manchester city move one step closer to seeing a place amongst the european elite next season. there is not another competition in the world with six strong teams fighting for positions. here, every se

could there be double celebrations for manchester city tonight? because their women's side lead in the fa cup final at wembley. and saracens are chasing back to back european champions cup titles, they're ahead at murrayfield. also coming up in the programme. lewis hamilton claims pole for the spanish grand prix, by the finest of margins. and age is no barrier. rugby league for the over—80s. with the premier league title decided this now a race for the also—rans. and its city are now in service after a rather fortunate win over leicester. with the premier league title decided this now a race for the also—rans. still, for manchester city there remains a champions league place to chase and victory over last season's champions, leicester, would go along long way to securing that. a goal always helps settle any nerves. it came from david silva. but was that final touch from raheem sterling, and was he offside? well, the referee thought not. little argument about their second, a reckless challenge in the box gifting gabrieljesus the chance to add anoth

results went against the gunners, as both manchester city and liverpool won their matches to finish infourth respectively. for liverpool, their win means champions league football for the first time since 2014... patrick geary has the details. bob marley gave the team talk at anfield. don't worry. easiersong and dana for liverpool still needed to win to have a chance at champions league football. a situation that loaded pressure onto every attack and anguish to every mess. the tension rose, the airwaves crackled. in northern london, arsenal had scored and liverpool were fair. they could do without middlesborough complicating things. time froze. penalty? no. liverpool needed to harvest the nervous energy. delivery. the dam had broken. it liberated liverpool, five minutes after the break, coutinho was relaxed enough to do this. all jeopardy gloriously removed. middlesbrough were overwhelmed. another five minutes and another goal, this time adam lallana. to reach the champions league proper, there is still a play—off to get through. but liverpool have taken jurgen klopp is my philosophy a

now we have another fantastic challenge at manchester city.tough, but we are really looking forward to it because there is no other way to do it. we are not going to take part, we are going to win and come back to birmingham. they drew 1-1 win they met in the league last week. tomorrow will be on another scale. birmingham city ladies won the fa cup in 2012 but that was before the finals played at wembley. a record crowd is expected. that makes it extra special for the blues's german goalkeeper. everyone who plays football clu bs goalkeeper. everyone who plays football clubs to play at wembley. for me, a little dream came true, because i think not every international player can say they played in wembley. i cannot wait to see the stadium and i can't wait for the game. there is another potential matchwinner in ellen white. she was a losing finalist with notts county last season. should it come to penalties, does your uncle? of course it does. as a striker you have got to put your hand up. i want to do anything to help the team. we don't want it

manchester has been a city on edge, today, shaken by alerts and rumours. eyond doubt that the people of manchester and of this country have fallen victim to a callous terrorist attack. an attack that targeted some of the youngest people in our society with cold calculation. this was amongst the worst terrorist incidents we have ever experienced in the united kingdom. although it is not the first time that manchester has suffered in this way, it is the worst attack that the city has experience, and the worst ever to hit the north of england. dozens of people are still tried to trace loved ones after last night's bombing. amongst those missing is 15—year—old 0livia campbell. and some of the first victims have been named. georgina callander was aged 18, seen here with ariana grande at a previous event. john atkinson, aged 28, from bury. and eight—year—old saffie roussos was amongst those killed. it was an attack directed at young people and innocence. during the day, police raided a number of houses. a 23—year—old man was arrested in connection with yesterday'

manchester has been a city on edge today, shaken by alerts and rumours. a callous terrorist attack. an attack that targeted some of the youngest people in our society with cold calculation. this was amongst the worst terrorist incidents we have ever experienced in the united kingdom. during the day, police raided a number of houses. a 23—year—old man was arrested in connection with yesterday's bomb attack. an attack on an event like what happened last night has long been feared. preventing a determined suicide bomber is incredibly difficult. the priority now for the police will be to discover everything they can about this man — whether he is part of a wider network and whether there is a risk of further attacks. dozens of people are still trying to trace loved ones after last night's bombing. among the missing, 0livia campbell, aged 15. and some of the first victims of the attack have been named. georgina callander was aged 18, seen here with ariana grande at a previous event. and eight—year—old saffie roussos was amongst those killed. it was an attack di

identified as a manchester city fire bomber. m an expert bomb maker. this amateur footage taken yesterday is believed to show his brother being arrested in manchester. at the family home nearby, police used explosives to gain access and then search for clues. but there are international connections to this plot. from manchester, abedi is believed to have gone to libya, a failed state. and today, the french interior minister said war—torn syria was also a country he'd probably spent time in. increasingly, investigators have been coming round to the conclusion that the bomber, salman abedi, was not working alone. that he was simply the mule, carrying a device designed and built for him by somebody else. the bomb—maker would still be at large which is why the uk terror threat level has been raised to critical. mis, the security service, is working with police and other intelligence agencies to try to trace every possible connection he had in this country and abroad. this is what we know about salman abedi. he was born in manchester

- the british city of manchester -- leaving tens of casualties and innocent people. i do offer my warm condolences to the prime minister of britain, families of victims, and the british people. your excellency, meeting you in the white house early this month has given us and our palestinian people, as well as also giving all the nations across the region so much hope and optimism of the possibility to make true a dream, a long-awaited dream and ambition, and that is lasting and justice-based peace. our palestinian people's attainment of their freedom and independence is the key to peace and stability in the world so that the children of palestine and israel enjoy a safe, stable, and prosperous future. i would like to reiterate, your excellency, mr. president, our commitment to cooperate with you in order to make peace and forge a historic peace deal with the israelis. and we would like to reassert our willingness to continue to work with you as partners in fighting terrorism in our region and in the world. in this respect, i commend the importance of the holding of t

manchester city, liverpool and arsenal will vie for the last two spots to join europe's elite next season. and phil has the weather for us this morning. good morning. there is a much improved started day compared to yesterday in scotland and the rest of the british isles is not far behind. details in a few minutes. good morning. first, our main story. in business, sometimes, you have to do the dance. and having won billions of dollars worth of contracts for us firms, donald trump is more confident celebrating with the saudis than you might think. it's beautiful. it certainly more comfortable for him here than it is back home, given the furore over his sacking of the fbi director investigating allegations his presidential campaign was tied to russia. but day two of this tour could be the beginning of a far greater challenge as he leaves the world of striking commercial deals he knows so well to try to strike political deals instead. always the right hand, right? always the right hand. if only teacup diplomacy were enough in the region were some disputes stretch back thousands of years. tod

manchester. the great city games, which started yesterday evening. nchester run, which is tomorrow. 30,000 runners registered for that. and the charlatans —— the cha rlata ns for that. and the charlatans —— the charlatans playing at the emirates old trafford tonight. a lot of big events. police geared up for it. we have seen a big police presence in manchester this morning. i'm joined bya manchester this morning. i'm joined by a couple of guests who have been passing by to pay tribute. susie and her daughter, camille. you have come here, a terrible feeling of sadness but defiance from the people of manchester? completely. it is hard not to meet somebody who has been affected because they know a victim or have a child affected. we live next door to somebody who lives as mac quirk said stepping hill. i dread to think some of the things he had to witness on monday evening. yes, you worry about coming into the ce ntre yes, you worry about coming into the centre but you don't want to be trodden down by this utterly depraved act. we thought we wanted to pay

cities. it all still feels rather raw. manchesterve been knocked sideways by what happened this week. amid the visibly heightened security, things do not look or feel normal. and heightened security, things do not look orfeel normal. and despite heightened security, things do not look or feel normal. and despite the progress made by police in the last two days, there is still a lot we do not know. wyre davies is in manchester's st ann's square where many tributes have been left for those who died. there have been a number of developments and a number of arrests. the police teams have been out across manchester and further afield last night. most important thing to say is that the woman was arrested yesterday has since been released without charge. a number of other suspects in custody. everybody is exhausted, particularly the families of those who died and were injured and also the police themselves. they will keep this level of security and intensity until they are certain that everybody is safe. and that means finding out whether p

manchester city have 75 points. they travel to watford today.d middlesbrough. arsenal have 72 points, and have to rely on one of the other two slipping up. there is also the possibility of two, or even more bizarrely, three, of the teams finishing level on points, goals scored, and goals conceded, which would mean a play—off. millwall are up to the championship, after beating bradford in the league one play—off final, steve morison‘s goal in the 85th minute giving them a 1—0 win at wembley. hundreds of fans invaded the pitch afterwards. officials at wembley stadium say appropriate action will be ta ken if needed. it is the final weekend in the scottish premiership, as well. treble—chasing celtic host hearts today, and after the match, they will be presented with the league trophy. their unbeaten run this season already stands at a5 games. if they avoid defeat today, they will be the first title—winning side to complete an unbeaten league campaign in over a century. it's a huge testament to the professionalism and the quality and the mentality of
