Chris Coleman's side would then need to beat Israel at home on Sunday to guarantee their place in the finals in France next summer.

Wales' previous two visits to Cyprus - both during John Toshack's tenure - ended in ignominious defeats. But confidence is high among Coleman's men, who have lost only once in the past 11 matches and are top of Group B.

Shane Daly: On the Welbeck news, LVG was right. Also, Arsenal are in trouble now, Will they even finish in the top 5??

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho looks over the moon with their new digital and IT partners.

Or maybe he is unhappy to be pictured in socks and sandals...

There is no excuse for that, Jose... Even if they are those "footballer sandals..." No excuse.

This is hugely significant for any flat racing fan of the last 40-plus years.

As well as training some outstanding horses – the brilliant fillies Pebbles and User Friendly and Jupiter Island stand out – Brittain is one of the sport’s most colourful and best-loved characters.

Famously approachable – “Call me Clive” is his standard response to any query to “Mr Brittain” – he’s been renowned for getting his horses on the Newmarket gallops earlier than anyone else and victories were often accompanied by a trademark jig in the winners’ circle.

Manchester United insist goalkeeper David de Gea will not be frozen out of the team even if he refuses to sign a new contract. 

Image source, PA

Reports in Spain have claimed De Gea is worried about being left out of the side after his move to Real Madrid collapsed on transfer deadline day, leaving the 24-year-old at Old Trafford at least until January and probably until next summer. 

But a United spokesman told Press Association Sport: "Those reports are absolute rubbish, the team will always be picked solely on merit." 

Multiple Classic-winning trainer Clive Brittain has announced his intention to retire at the end of the season.

The 81-year-old has won every British Classic at least once, apart from the Epsom Derby.

"I'm retiring with some regret, as I've had some fantastic owners over the years and still have, as well as great staff," he said. "I've lived a charmed life."
