youth academies are also big money earners for premier league clubs.ast £250 million by selling their academy graduates. the commoditisation of young footballers means they are now being viewed by some clubs as potential profit centres and not part of the development of a young person. if you have a constant stream of players who are quite promising and you're able to sell them that can help clubs to further boost their revenue streams. money can also change hands if young players move from one academy to another. it's attracted the attention of football agents, despite strict fa rules to keep them out. as far as recruiting young people are concerned, you can't have an agent if you're below the age of 16. but if i'm an agent who spots the nextjack grealish, that young man is worth millions of pounds to me in terms of the commission i can make on a transfer. it's an opportunity some agents can't resist. i've heard of agents approaching children from as young as 10. the underhanded tactics to get players on your books, that is the dark side of the game.

at the top of the table, liverpool are the premier league leaders tonight after a 3—0 win over crystale champions, manchester city, dropped points at home for the first time this season. ben croucher�*s been following the action. there have been questions about sadio mane's finishing, but that's rarely a problem against palace? we will get onto that in the second but liverpool fans will be very happy because they are top of the premier league table once more. juergen klopp described the win as one of their hardest, even though they did score three goals, and sadia manet was front and centre, got the first goal, his 100th for liverpool. we saw mo salah with his wonderful, he scored the second. sadia manet, 100 goals he scored now for liverpool, 13 of them have come against crystal palace, and he wishes he could play against them every week. i wishes he could play against them every week-— every week. i would love to play auainst every week. i would love to play against them — every week. i would love to play against them because _ every week. i would love to play against them because i

crunch talks for the premier league this afternoon.m the volcano that erupted last weekend on the spanish island of la palma has now destroyed about 200 homes. there are fears that when the lava hits the sea, it will create toxic gases and explosions. danjohnson reports from la palma. it's possible the wind direction has changed today because we are starting to see more ash falling in other places. this is la laguna, a villagejust outside the restricted zone. these are the roadblocks where police are keeping people back from the villages that have been evacuated. occasionally a few residents are allowed through to get the last of their belongings. but in the main there are more roadblocks and more roads that are disrupted because of where the lava is flowing. some roads have been completely smothered. others the police have closed to keep people back. and you can see how much ash has fallen here and it is coming down the whole time. sometimes really fine volcanic dust, sometimes thicker particles. if i hold out my hand you might be abl

so i think actually i really like that aspect of the premier league.on match of the day but it is of course helpful to us. it definitely is, it is part of the reason match of the day remains an institution on bbc one. can i ask you about your role within that institution? as been much reported, you're one of bbc�*s best paid presenters for your work on match of the day. why do you think you the bbc has decided to commit that much money to the presenter of that particular programme? well, i think it's obviously been a long—term process and my salary has gradually come down. but, no, obviously i was in a fortuitous position. i was sought after by numerous channels over the years. and football is global, it's big business, it does the biggest numbers on television, more than anything else — we've seen that on the euros again this summer. so... and there's a lot of competition and bbc had to fight for... it's hard talking about this for myself because obviously i realise how fortuitous i am, but bbc wanted me to have... ..to head their football on televisi

football along the way, but you can imagine if suddenly they lost the rights completely to the premier leaguerts? you know, it's very expensive, it's very expensive to watch sky sports. same with bt sport with the champions league, if they suddenly lost a champions league now, would people bother with a subscription for bt sport? and the same way with the sky sports. so tv channels pay huge, huge amounts of money for it. bbc pays a fair amount as well, not to the levels, they can't compete. a secondary question, which is some of the investors into football clubs, so if we take paris saint—germain with its connections to qatar, man city with its connections to abu dhabi, the newcastle saudi arabia story that's ongoing, that money is being pushed into football partly as an investment but partly because via the media, these countries or these organisations can change their public image. are you always comfortable with that? not always, no, no. i don't know what we do about it. i think it's every club's supporter, they don't like it but then when it happens to their club, that's ultimately what t

it's been a long time since west ham have made such an impressive, assured start to a premier leaguethey had plenty of chances to score even before they actually did. a shot found a deflection and no shortage of good fortune. but whatever their troubles, manchester united have cristiano ronaldo, a player in his second spell with a rare gift to find his second chance. that's what it took to bring things level. but whilst much has been made of his return, it was another player returning that looked certain to have won it. jesse lingard rejuvenated his career whilst at west ham last season, now it was his brilliant goal that put them behind. that, though, only the start of the drama. west ham were handed a penalty in the game's final seconds. mark noble, just on as a substitute, his very first kick, chance missed. manchester united getting away with it, just. adam wild, bbc news. brighton are just a point off top spot, its four wins out of five for them, their best start to a premier league season. neil maupay and danny welbeck scored in a 2—1 win over leicester — who had two goals rule

premier league and championship clubs will be able to offer licensed standing areas at their groundspilot programme. it would mean an end to the ban on standing in the top two divisions which has been in place for more than 25 years. in 2018 the sports ground safety authority allowed the use of rail seats, as seen at celtic park. premier league clubs chelsea, liverpool, manchester city, manchester united and wolves have all had rail seating installed at their grounds. to be approved for safe standing, fans also must be able to sit or stand in the licensed area. clubs have until 6th october to submit an application. in netball, england have drawn level with new zealand in their three match series after victory in the second match in christchurch. the world champions held a narrow lead for the majority of the first half but the england roses rallied in the third quarter, and by the fourth they were in control. the final score was 55—45 in favour of england. the final match of the series takes place on friday. england are using the series to help them prepare for next years commonwealth
