    Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner is due to speak to the media shortly (13:30 GMT) ahead of Palace's FA Cup game with Doncaster on Monday.

    It will be the first time we speak to the manager after the transfer window and to see if new signing Ben Chilwell will be involved on Monday for the match.

    Glasner will also be asked about Tottenham Hotspur's approach for Marc Guehi and we will hopefully find out how quickly that was rejected.

    Ok, so remember earlier when we said Bournemouth had won the double?

    Well, we were wrong, they've actually landed the treble!

    Midfielder David Brooks has been awarded the Premier League goal of the month award for January for his wonderful strike in the 1-0 victory over Everton at the beginning of the month.

    What a day for the Cherries!

    In the good old days of Pro Evo Soccer on the PS2(!!) my brother who is 3 years younger would regularly wipe the floor with me. Then after a 20 game losing streak I beat him 1-0 thanks to an Adriano screamer from 40 yards (what a player he was!). Upon ending my losing streak, cue much very bad loser behaviour from by brother! My win was short lived though, another monstrous losing streak began but that one win was oh so sweet!

  13. Double award delight for Bournemouthpublished at 12:34 Greenwich Mean Time 7 February

    Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola and forward Justin Kluivert have been named as the Premier League's manager and player of the month, respectively, for January.

    Iraola led the Cherries to an unbeaten month in the league, notching up three wins and one draw.

    Two of the wins were standout results in the season so far, with Bournemouth dismantling Newcastle 4-1 at St James' Park before hammering third placed Nottingham Forest 5-0 at the Vitality Stadium the following week.

    Winger Kluivert lands his award after a superb month which saw him score five times and provide two assists in the competition.

    The highlight of the 25-year-old's January was the hat-trick he lodged in the thoroughly impressive win over the Magpies.

  15. Man City and Chelsea to meet four times in 12 dayspublished at 12:30 Greenwich Mean Time 7 February

    Manchester City were initially drawn against holders Barcelona for the Women's Champions League quarter-final draw, but as they were both in the same qualifying group, Gareth Taylor's side had to be drawn another team.

    There was always a high chance that two Women's Super League teams would meet in the last eight and there will now be one English team guaranteed a spot in the semi-finals.

    It means City and Chelsea will play each other four times in the space of 12 days. They meet in the League Cup final on 15 March and again in the WSL on 23 March, with the two Champions League ties scheduled for 18/19 and 26/27 March.

    I like Arsenal's draw - Real Madrid are tricky, but not on Barcelona's level, and we've already beaten Bayern this season. Lyon would be the biggest test if we're to make the final.

    Christmas Crunch! Love that. Anyone else's sibling rivalries get so intense that showdowns earned their own title?

    My younger brother and I played golf every Christmas Day morning for a number of years. I won the inaugural Christmas Crunch before losing the next five! I was kind of relieved when we stopped doing it.
