roman abramovich treated chelsea as| football? it is not clear. y asset and therefore his focus was very much in terms of achievements on the pitch. that is not normally the system, or strategy, of a private equity company. they are looking for a financial rather than a sporting or emotional return as far as the investment is concerned. i think we will see changes. chelsea were more likely be run on similar lines to liverpool, who also have american owners. what livable's ennis have done is focus on the data, analytical and numbers based system in terms of buying players and that is why they have managed to be so successful, despite spending half £1 billion less than chelsea, manchester united and manchester city since 2013. manchester united and manchester city since 2013-— city since 2013. when you say the chan . e city since 2013. when you say the chance of city since 2013. when you say the change of culture _ city since 2013. when you say the change of culture will— city since 2013. when you say the change of culture will mean - city since 2013

if you talk to fans of chelsea, they have an overall positive viewpoint of roman abramovich.manchester city and leicester, who have foreign owners. i do not think the birthplace of the owner is either a hindrance or a benefit to the club itself. we have other owners of football clubs who had come from the uk themselves, who have not covered themselves in glory. we look at clubs like bury and derby where the owners are british. one club has gone out of existence and the other one is presently in administration. i do not think it should be an issue. the important thing is the long—term sustainability of the club is ensured. thank you very much. thank you. the president of sri lanka, gotabaya rajapaksa, has declared a new state of emergency, as demands grow for his government to resign. this is the second state of emergency he's imposed in five weeks — with much of the country on strike as frustration persists, over food and fuel shortages. the bbc�*s, rajini vaidynathan, is in the capital, colombo for us. well, a state of emergency is now in place here in sri lanka, although th

yes, this all really started back in march when the owner, roman abramovich, said he was going to put some pressure due to russia's invasion of ukraine. but then after that, the uk government actually imposed sanctions on mr abramovich, saying that ultimately, they didn't feel his links with president putin meant that he could actually do business in this country. so then, we have had this sale period and now, it looks like that may well be completed by the end of this month. but there had been restrictions on chelsea, such as they cannot buy players at the moment, so it was potentially going to have severe implications for them on the field as well as off the field. simonjones they simon jones they are. —— simon jones there. this summer marks queen elizabeth's platinumjubilee — 70 years on the british throne. a key moment is a royal appearance on the balcony at buckingham palace. but the queen has decided that prince harry and meghan, along with prince andrew, won't be allowed to appear on the balcony during trooping the colour. here's our royal correspondent nicholas witchell. an ap

under roman abramovich, the club spent more money on wages and transfers and lost more money than anyclub in the premier league. it is unlikely that an american owner, with an experience of sports franchises in the us, especially one backed by private equities is likely to repeat such a policy. four days after they reached the champions league final, liverpool can go top of the premier league tonight if they beat tottenham at anfield. and with the fa cup final next saturday, it's a defining few weeks for the club. in 22 days, 23 days, we know everything. between now and then, a lot of games and we can't play them altogether but we can play them one after the other. the feeling is good but we still are able to play football, like the first half. we felt brilliant before the game and played really bad so let's make sure that we play good. liverpool spurs kicks off at 7.45. chelsea can strengthen their hold on third if they beat wolves, their potential new owner todd boehly is expected to watch them there. watford will be relegated if they lose at palace. burnley have the chance to open
