    If media reports, external are to be believed then former Borussia Dortmund boss Jurgen Klopp is on his way to England for talks with any number of Premier League sides.

    Depending on which German tabloid you read, Klopp is wanted by Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and/or Manchester United. Not a bad set of jobs to consider.

    Of course, none of those clubs are currently in the market for a manager, Klopp may not fancy them anyway. But when's that ever stopped a story eh?

  6. The ugly side of footballpublished at 17:23 British Summer Time 1 October 2015

    A Sunday League footballer who deliberately stamped on an opponent's leg, breaking it in several places, has been jailed for a year.

    Nathaniel Kerr, 24, pleaded guilty at Manchester Crown Court to assault.

    The 30-year-old victim, Stuart Parsons, had been arguing with one of Kerr's team-mates just before the incident in Stockport last August, the court heard.

    Mr Parsons had reconstructive surgery on his right ankle and spent weeks in hospital after the assault. A self-employed window cleaner, Parsons has been out of work since the challenge.

    Monte Carlo - not too shabby...

    The Europa League may have its detractors, and it may lack the pull of the Champions League.

    But there are worse places to be this evening than Monte Carlo...

    Tonight's question for you is:

    "Where is the best place you've ever been to see your team play? And why?"

    Irrespective of the result - just the best place you've visited please as a consequence of football.

    Monaco v Tottenham (18:00 BST)

    These two sides have never met in a competitive match before - though Monaco's record in 12 games against English teams is W6 D3 L3.

    And just last season - as Spurs fans will surely know - they knocked Arsenal out of the Champions League.

    On Tuesday Arsenal and Chelsea were handed defeats, while last night Manchester United and City restored a bit of pride with wins against two Bundesliga sides.

    Can the Premier League boys keep momentum going in the Europa League?

    Or will they field a bunch of kids and turn in disappointing displays?

    We shall find out soon enough...

    and Jurgen Klinsmann.

    Four hugely talented footballers. One hard-working one.

    Could they all play in the same XI? Not a chance.

    But they all played for both Tottenham and Monaco at one point or another, and they have combined here to lead us nicely into an evening's Europa League football.

    After a blockbuster week of ups and downs for English sides in the Champions League it's time for the nearly men of European football to serve up a tasty dessert.

    Over to you Liverpool and Celtic (at 20:05 BST), and first Tottenham...
