    Some very sad news to report. Sir Bobby Charlton has been diagnosed with dementia. The fifth of England's 1966 heroes. I spoke with Lady Norma y'day and she hopes that wider knowledge of Sir Bobby's diagnosis will help others. Full story here:

    Remember this from Arsene Wenger in 2015 and feels relevant today. He said FFP was finished once he saw how clubs with far more money than sports governing bodies were ready to go down the legal route:

    Slight irony that those seemingly most outraged by Arsenal's FA Cup exit were also least impressed by Wenger becoming competition's most successful manager 7 months ago....

    Bit more detail on Van Dijk deal. It's £70m, rising to around £75m. Southampton wanted big chunk up front as they plan to be active in January too and want to get an attacker in quickly.
