The seventh placed side in the Premier League would normally qualify for the Europa League, but the two places above seventh would not need to start their Europa League games until mid-September. By giving up the seventh spot, that would allow the Premier League to delay the start of next season's, er, season.
Mikel Arteta hopes striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will be "convinced we are going in the right direction" after Arsenal beat holders Manchester City to book their place in the FA Cup final.

The Eagles are in 11th place, three points behind The Blades in 8th; the visitors could end the day fifth if other results go their way.

This is first of two matches from Spain Primera where I will bet on goals tonight and that is pretty real for me. Mallorca is at the start of season played defensive, but in last few weeks, team was very efficient. In that period, they are played even four times in a row efficient. In last round, team is lost 1-2 against Levante, and before that match, they are played 3-1, 0-3 and 2-2. Betis was great against Valencia and if they be on that level and this time, goals are very real here. I will bet on over, odds are great.
The stadium in Niort was full of Reunion people and I was like 'wow, I know this guy - he comes to the stadium in Reunion every time. I know this guy and this guy'. They were singing, dancing and every time we play away in France the stadium is full of Reunion people - it is crazy. I don't know how they do it with the travel but they keep coming back. Niort immediately sacked their manager after losing to this supposed bunch of amateurs but there is far more to the Saint-Pierre squad than meets the eye.

There is no doubting the French forward’s quality, but he operates on a different wavelength to Messi. At times it’s almost as if they are playing their own games on the same pitch. Messi looks to have established some sort of understanding with Martin Braithwaite, as demonstrated in the first half of the win over Real Sociedad, but the Danish forward is only seen as an option through rotation or off the bench.

However, although they've beaten two of the top six in quick succession, Lincoln remain a poor side away from home. Appleton's men have lost each of their last two travelling games, scoring zero goals in the process, while they've lost nine out of 13 on the road overall. Rarely do they find themselves on the end of a battering, but by scoring so few, notching just two in their last four, The Imps regularly come unstuck away from home.

Frank Lampard called him incredible. Alan Shearer said he "bossed it" and Jermaine Jenas named him man of the match - safe to say Scottish teenager Billy Gilmour made an impression in Chelsea's FA Cup win over Liverpool. The 18-year-old attracted praise from players, pundits, journalists and fans as he helped Chelsea to a 2-0 win against Liverpool in the FA Cup fifth round. Having played a total of just 281 minutes before Tuesday, has he staked a claim for a regular starting berth and a Scotland call-up? "It was a good match, so it was," Gilmour told BBC Sport.

That's because it was from Alisson's assist that Salah scored. A goalkeeper assist is a rare thing at Liverpool, with this one the first in the Premier League since March 2010, when Pepe Reina assisted against Sunderland.
