Underpaid officers turn to foodbanks ■■ By IAN JOHNSON CASH-STRAPPED police officers are being forced to use foodbanks to feed their children. Unions say inflation-adjusted pay means bobbies are earning £5,595 a year less than they were a decade ago. And the Cleveland Police Federation warned some were struggling “to feed themselves and their families”. The force’s chairman Steve Williams-Reader said: “The risks that officers are facing every day to keep the community safe, they just need to be treated fairly, that’s all we ask. To give us the pay that we deserve. “I’m hearing of officers using foodbanks to feed themselves and their families. We need to get this acted on.” Most police forces received no pay rise last year as the Government grappled with balancing the books. Neither Cleveland Police nor Police and Crime Commissioner Steve Turner were willing to comment. news@dailystar.co.uk Pictures: PA

But the former Man United captain said he feared he would be “eaten alive” in Westminster. Gary, 46, added he wanted Labour to be a “progressive” party “that not just looks after the left side – it has to come towards the centre”. The pundit was publicly welcomed to the ranks by shadow cabinet ministers Lucy Powell and Anneliese Dodds. After reports that Gary is not “ruling out” running for Manchester mayor, Ms Powell said she thinks he is “more than capable of navigating his way through the world of politics”.

Sorry Ma’am... I’ll get My minion to apologise Picture: Amer Ghazzal/REX/Shutterstock NO SHOW: Bozo keeps quiet BOZO Johnson got an aide to say sorry to the Queen over two No10 bashes the day before Prince Philip’s funeral. Instead of making the grovelling call himself the PM roped in a lackey to apologise for the boozy dos in Downing Street on April 16 last year. The PM’s spokesman said it was “deeply regrettable that this took place at a time of national mourning” and an apology was made to Buckingham Palace. Boris, who is self-isolating after a member of his family tested positive for Covid, was not at either party – one of which was a leaving do for his then di- ■■ by jerry lawton rector of communications James Slack. At the time, lockdown rules banned indoor social mixing, and outdoor hook-ups were limited to groups of six. Mr Slack, who is now deputy editor of The Sun newspaper, said he was sorry for the “anger and hurt caused”, adding: “I take full responsibility.” Civil servant Sue Gray’s will be probing several No10 lockdown bashes. Yesterday, a group took the mickey out of the PM by donning Bozo masks and dancing with bottles of booze outside No10. And a video of the PM disco dancing with light sabre-wielding London Assembly member Jeanette Arnold OBE at a Christmas party in 2013 went viral. A joker who posted it online wrote: “It was a work event in the basement actually.” But Jeanette did not see the funny side of No10’s parties, tweeting: “I doubt whether the PM has an honest bone in his body so regrettably he is not going to do the decent thing and resign.” The PM’s personal ratings have now slumped to an all-time low of minus 52, according to YouGov, with 20% viewing him favourably and 72% unfavourably.

DS1ST DAILY STAR, Saturday, January 15, 2022 5 breaks own lockdown rules WINING! Virus boss admits she held boozy leaving do ■■ by nadeem badshah AN ex-Covid taskforce chief issued a grovelling apology last night for hosting leaving drinks during lockdown. Kate Josephs, who helped create Britain’s restriction rules, said she is “truly sorry” for the gathering. Dozens from the Cabinet Office’s Covid taskforce attended the bash to mark her leaving the Civil Service while the nation was in lockdown. The knees-up was held in December 2020 when people were advised not to hold Christmas parties. Anger Ms Josephs, currently chief executive of Sheffield City Council, tweeted: “On the evening of 17 December, I gathered with colleagues that were at work that day, with drinks, in our office in the Cabinet Office, to mark my leaving the Civil Service. “I am truly sorry that I did this and for the anger that people will feel as a result. Sheffield has suffered greatly during this pandemic and I apologise unreservedly. “The specific facts of this event will be considered in the context of the Cabinet Office investigation. I did not attend any events at 10 Downing St.” Ms Josephs becomes the latest top official to say sorry for breaking Covid rules. Boris Johnson apologised for attending a “bring your own booze” party during the first Covid lockdown. But he told MPs the event in the Downing Street garden in May last year was “technically within the rules”.

SEE starsport Politics is a real downer POLITICS really does make people feel sick, according to a new health study. People say it has caused them stress, loss of sleep, fractured relationships and more. Alarmingly, one in 20 claim it has left them feeling suicidal. And about a quarter have given serious consideration to moving because of politics. The findings are based on a 32-question survey of Americans carried out twice – two weeks prior to the 2020 election and two weeks after. What is more, they mirrored the results of the same study three years, which has seen both Donald Trump and Joe Biden as President. Lead author Professor Kevin Smith, of the University of Nebraska, said: “This second round of surveys conclusively demonstrates the first survey was not out of left field. It’s also unpleasant to think in that span of time, nothing changed. “Adults perceive politics is exacting a toll on their social, psychological and physical health.” a NEW tram in Nottingham could honour England’s deputy chief medical officer, who studied in the city, amid a growing public campaign to name it Jonathan Van-Tram.

Alan Gosling’s prized ducks were culled after they were found to be infected with the deadly disease, leaving him “absolutely distraught”.

Daughter-in-law Ellesha Gosling said: “He’s been told it’s not safe for new ducks to go on his land for a whole year. Dad’s face dropped.”

Anne Sacoolas’s case was due to be heard at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday. But yesterday the CPS said after “engagement between the parties, the hearing has been vacated”. Reacting to the announcement, the Dunn family’s spokesman Radd Seiger said: “We have full faith in the Crown Prosecution Service and will wait to hear from them with further developments, hopefully in the near future.” Harry, 19, died in a crash with a car near RAF Croughton, Northants, in August 2019. Mrs Sacoolas, 44, is accused of causing death by dangerous driving. She had diplomatic immunity asserted on her behalf by the US government following the collision, and was able to leave the UK 19 days after the incident.

The move was aimed at encouraging households to turn down heating to save money and reduce their carbon footprint. But customers said the stunt was insensitive with bills set to soar by more than 50% in April. One tweeted: “So with bills about to rocket, Eon thinks the best thing to do is to send customers (my mother) a pair of socks.” Another said: “My elderly auntie on income support just received this pitiful package from her energy company. Shame on you Eon.” Martyn James, of complaints website Resolver, said it was a “slap in the face” and added: “It’s also a complete waste of money that could be put to better use in the current crisis.” Charity Age UK warned energy price rises could trigger a “national emergency” for older households and said thousands of elderly people were turning off their heating and living on soup and sandwiches. E.On said it sent the socks to about 30,000 customers and added: “We are incredibly sorry for how we have made some people feel.” The Star Says: Page 8 news@dailystar.co.uk ‘Cuddle up’ chiefs’ £1m AN energy firm that sparked fury for suggesting that customers should cuddle pets to keep warm paid its seven directors £1million last year.

8 DAILY STAR, Saturday, January 15, 2022 Says Bozo’s in a royal mess SORRY always seems to be the hardest word for politicians. But Bozo Johnson is so adept at bumbling his way out of apologies, we never thought we’d hear him say it. So this week must have felt like a crash course in remorse for him. First the PM reluctantly offered an attempt at contrition for attending the party in his back garden that he didn’t know was a party. And now he has been forced into apologising to the Queen herself for parties held at Downing Street the night before she sat all alone at her husband’s funeral while restrictions were in place. Even for a bloke who doesn’t seem to care about anyone else, that must be pretty mortifying. Not that we believe the scruffy blond blimp means a word of these mea culpas, mind. This clown doesn’t do anything he doesn’t want to do unless he’s backed into a corner. And we don’t believe he’s ever sorry. He’s just sorry when he gets caught. E.ON put foot in it ENERGY bosses have spent the past months sobbing from their mansions about the wholesale price of gas. They’ve told how they cannot possibly survive unless the energy cap is raised and they can hike up our bills. And as a result, millions of Brits will be going into fuel poverty before the winter is out. So it’s unsurprising that the customers of E.ON are a bit miffed at their so-called skint supplier’s latest stunt. The firm said mailing out a pair of socks to customers was a “fun” way to motivate them to reduce their gas use. As if the increasingly sky-high bills aren’t already motivating them enough! All this sock stunt has done is infuriate customers who want to know where E.ON got the money to pay for it. If they can afford expensive mail campaigns then they can afford to charge less for gas. So put a sock in the daft scheme and lower the bills instead!

THAT WENT QUICK... 30 YEARS ZIPPED BY Fast Show’s facts that’ll suit you, sir The Fast Show ran from 1994 1 to 1997, with specials in 2000 and 2014. There was also an online series in 2011 and a one-off special last year. Along with Williams, the central performers were Paul Whitehouse, Charlie Higson, Simon Day, John Thomson, Arabella Weir and Caroline Aherne. It was the brainchild of 2 Whitehouse and Higson. They were inspired to create a quick-fire sketch show after seeing a five-minute reel of highlight clips of Harry Enfield’s skits. Rejected by ITV, the show found a home on BBC Two. Both Whitehouse and Higson 3 disliked the title of The Fast Show but as no-one could think of anything better, it became the official name. 4 It introduced audiences to the over-enthusiastic youth known as Brilliant Kid, the awkward friendship of groundskeeper Ted and aristocrat Ralph, the innuendo-loving “suit you, sir” tailors, and sleazy car dealer Swiss Toni. 5 Characters inspired by real people included Jazz Club presenter Louis Balfour, who was a combination of “Whispering” Bob Harris and Roger Moore, and Dave Angel, Eco-Warrior – who was inspired by EastEnders star Mike Reid. 6 Whitehouse based boozy Rowley Birkin QC on a man he met on a fishing trip to Iceland, while Higson said Swiss Toni came from his attempts to do an impersonation of James Bond star Sean Connery. ■FAST & FURIOUS: The show’s funny faces 7 Simon Day played the part of Competitive Dad – the father who always has to get one up on his children. He based the character on a man he saw at a swimming pool, who challenged his kids to a race and then swam away at top speed, leaving them trailing in his wake. 8 Late singer Amy Winehouse made an appearance as an extra in a Fast Show sketch when she was 14. 9 ★ THE Fast Show star Mark Williams reckons the comedy should make a comeback ahead of its 30th anniversary – and he’d be up for starring in it. As we reported yesterday the character, who played Arabella Weir came up with her Girl Men Can’t Hear character – a woman ignored by men who then steal her ideas – to parody how she was treated in the show’s script meetings. Ageing and incompetent Bob 10 Fleming was the coughing host of Country Matters – his surname is a pun on “phlegm-ing” while “country matters” is a Shakespearean term for oral sex. 11 Sketches that didn’t make the final cut included Ranting Man – a chain- one half of the Suit You tailors, said: “It would be really interesting to do.

Labour MP for York Central, Rachael Maskell, said it was “untenable for the Duke of York to cling on to his title”. She said: “This association with York must end.

One school for them… But no matter where you were educated, we are all stuck with idiot Boris. One fool for them, one fool for ALL of us. Bozo has got so bad at following his own rules that apparently F1 are going to put him in charge of safety car decisions next season. Yet he still reckons he’s done nothing wrong. This week he said with a straight face he attended a big boozy gathering in his own garden but didn’t believe it was a party. It was BYOB. Bring Your Own Bozo. You’ve got to fight, for your right… to work event! He’d get caught with his hands in a tin of red paint and swear blind it was blue. After a grilling in Parliament, Boris pulled out of a planned visit to Lancashire “due to a family member testing positive for coronavirus”. With the number of kids he has it’s probably the first time he’s pulled out of anything. You like parties, don’t you Boris? How about a leaving party? That’s one most of the country will be more than happy for you to attend. He’s hanging on but for how long? It’s time to have a bet on who will replace him. “Richy” Rishi Sunak has to be the sensible shout: Coral – 9/4

DS1ST CASH WOES: Clary Julian is terrified of losing his cash COMIC Julian Clary has told how he dreads dying penniless and alone like pal Dale Winton. The comic also revealed he was warned about his finances before he had to flog his posh Kent home just over three years ago. Clary, 62, said the costs of maintaining Goldenhurst Manor, once the home of Noel Coward, had started to mount up. He said: “My accountant sternly pointed out there was a lot of money going out of my bank account and not much coming in. “I had a fear of ending up like Dale Winton, who died in 2018 in a rented house, his money all gone.” After Clary’s ITV show Nature Nuts was axed in 2015 money worries started to creep up on him. He said: “I had high hopes for another series. But in the cut-throat world of TV, the viewing figures weren’t good enough.” In his new book The Lick Of Love, Clary tells how he did a stand-up tour to boost his coffers and sold his pad for £950,000. Pervert escapes jail term A retired BBC producer gasped as he avoided jail despite possessing hundreds of indecent images of children. Victor Melleney, 76, who worked on Question Time and Panorama, stored 832 indecent images of children on computer equipment between May 2011 and October 2018. Melleney, of Kensington, west London, was acquitted at Kingston Crown Court of intentionally downloading child sex abuse images but was convicted of possessing indecent images of children. He also admitted four charges of possession of prohibited weapons. Melleney was given 20 months in prison for the images offence and two months for the weapons, suspended for two years. LOTTO LAD DAY OF DISASTER Sarah’s alive & licking ★SAUCY Sarah Jayne Dunn can’t wait for summer to come. She turned up the heat by wearing strappy lingerie and licking an ice cream. ★And the ex-Hollyoaks actress is causing a stir with her sexy poses. Sarah, 40, lost her job on the Channel 4 soap because of her connection to OnlyFans. ★But she says she has “never felt as free” and is “taking back control”.

Rossi Carmina, 23, who entered because a pal said he was “lucky”, was stunned to find his numbers matched despite the Lottery app telling him he had not won. But he realised to his horror the ticket he bought on January 3 was for the January 7 draw rather than the January 4 one that matched his numbers. Rossi said: “It’s lucky to have the chance for the numbers to match but to not buy the ticket is the opposite. “You feel like the most unlucky person in Britain at the time. “I was contemplating all the things I could have done. I could buy my mum a new home and buy a Ferrari. It’s hard not to think about. I’d have been set for life. “If I bought the right ticket, I would have won £14m.” People on social media posted that they “couldn’t live with themselves” if ■■ by Adam Wareing they had made the same mistake. But Rossi, from Bromley, in south-east London, said: “I’m all right. What can I do? “I don’t want to live my life thinking about what could have been. Rossi’s brother posted a screengrab of the winning digits for January 4’s draw, 18, 28, 35, 36, 41, 06 and 11, below his sibling’s identical saved numbers. Rossi denies claims he edited his numbers in the app so he looked unlucky. news@dailystar.co.uk real tough to kick meat Having “meat-free days” is the sustainable habit people are most likely to give up on first. Carnivores on average only manage to ditch their favourite foods for a plant-based diet for 12 days in total. Using eco-friendly products is a behaviour people can keep longest – but even that starts to wane after 15 days, suggests a study by Utilita. Archie Lasseter, of the energy firm, said: “There are 67million people in the UK – and if each person made a small change, the impact would be huge.”

The TV legend, 81, was a big hit as Pop Larkin in the original series in the ’90s. And he was baffled that execs on new show The Larkins did not offer him a part. Sir David said: “It was a bit surreal to see the show back. It was quite like deja vu if you know what I mean. “There was a strange feeling. I wanted to know why I wasn’t there doing it.” Asked if he would sign up, he said: “Are they going to pay me?” The Larkins sees Bradley Walsh as Pop, alongside Joanna Scanlan as Ma, almost 30 years after Sir David’s CLOSE: Pop & Ma last outing. But he reckons The Larkins is not as good as the original. Sir David said: “I thought it was quite good. Not quite as good as the original, I must admit. But it was fine. “I didn’t give Bradley any advice. He didn’t ask for it. He didn’t really need it.” Meanwhile, Sir David has no plans to retire from TV and is now making a surprise career move into documentaries. He said: “I have been very busy writing and creating documentaries. “I am right in the middle of doing it at the moment.

The 34-year-old said that being a part of the award-winning sitcom was “the best job in the world”. But the actor said he would not want to spoil what was a “universally loved” show. He said: “Not because I don’t think I would have an amazing time doing it, because I know I would. “But it’s looking like it might be the only thing that I do professionally that is universally loved. “There’s not enough money in the world for me to spoil that.” LOADED: Gervais Ricky’s on the money COMIC Ricky Gervais will never need an office job again as his production companies boast assets of nearly £20million. Accounts show he has £17.9m in firms founded to take in payments from his TV and film work – up £13m on the previous year. The TV star, 60, who created hit comedy The Office and is back on Netflix with After Life, does not have complicated arrangements to avoid paying monster tax bills like many celebs. He said: “I love paying tax. It helps justify how much I earn. There’s something unsavoury about tax exiles. Pay tax or f*** off.”

But he is now just over 5st thanks to vet Edward Davies, who put him on a six-month, life-saving diet after adopting Philip when he came to his surgery. Edward said: “I’ve been a vet for 30 years and I have never seen a dog as overweight as Philip. “Ironically, he had by THIS grey seal looks like it is ★ taking a bubble bath while lounging around in the sea. The water was rough but that did not bother a group of seals which let foamy waves wash over them at Horsey Gap beach in then stopped eating and it was thought he might have reached the end of the road. It was amazing that his legs could hold him up at all.” Edward, clinical director Norfolk, where photographer Simon Jenkins took fun snaps. ★The 47-year-old from Ware, Herts, said: “The seals were just enjoying being in the water and the sea foam in some cases was quite amusing.” ■CHUNKY: Philip with Tilly before his weight loss of Cheshire Pet, in Holmes Chapel, has two other springers, Archie and Tilly, but added: “I couldn’t take him out with my own dogs at first as he had to sit down every few seconds. We built him up doing circuits of the garden and one day when one of my other spaniels dropped a ball, he picked it up and brought it back. “It was as if he was learning to play again, or maybe even for the first time. “Now he’ll chase balls and pick up sticks. “He absolutely loves swimming and that has been great for burning off the calories.” Edward added: “He is such a friendly dog and you just did not see that before. “His tail is always wagging now and it is lovely to see him happy.” news@dailystar.co.uk

It shouldn’t be all that surprising, as the sea is a terrifying and godless place filled with monsters. Fossils or bones of these “living mouths” may even be inside your own home as a trinket or decoration. Not sure what I’m talking about? Well, say hello to the bizarre sea urchin. There are about 1,000 species, living at pretty much every depth and temperature. They belong to the family echinoderm, which means “spiny skin”, along with their cousins the starfish. There are two broad types of sea urchins: the “modern”, which can be identified by being one of the only natural things on earth with five-sided symmetry and are usually very spiky. The other type is “irregular”, such as the heart urchin, which has bilateral symmetry (the same on both sides, like you held a mirror down the middle), and are usually more hairy than spiky. The name urchin was the original old English name for the hedgehog, and it’s obvious why when you see that they are covered in spines. Live urchins can sometimes be spotted in rock pools or while swimming, but are often found washed up dead on the beach. They usually live for about 10 years and although they seem to be unable to move, they have long tube-like feet on most parts of their body. They mostly eat algae, but are omnivores and will eat Spiky beast of the deep Tip of the week Don’t forget to look for footprints on your walks. Though many animals may be sleeping through the short days, you may be surprised what is still around, and footprints can tell you a lot about your local wildlife. With Lily Woods anything they can from plants to barnacles. Their mouths have five triangle shaped “teeth” that are so efficient at crushing and grinding solid food that engineers have tried to make machines that copy them. Although some species, especially in the tropics, have venom, in the UK you are fairly safe from one unless you step on it, which can be a painful experience. It may also turn your skin purple from the dye in their spines. In some places, the edible sea urchin is a delicacy, although there is only one part of it that is safe to eat – their sex organs. Yes, the star-shaped ovaries and gonads are eaten, and are often described as being “ocean parma violets”.

DS1ST Biker is busted in tunnel A motorcyclist was arrested at the Channel Tunnel heading to the UK with £100,000 worth of heroin stashed on his bike. Ezekiel Rose, 40, created a secret compartment in his top box, saying he had been on a photography and camping trek in Spain. Rose, from Pimlico, London, who was stopped last October, claimed that he believed the drugs was “just herbal” cannabis but pleaded guilty to smuggling a controlled heroin. He was sentenced to five years and two months in prison at Canterbury Crown Court. Officers quizzed on hunt A POLICE force is being investigated over how it handled trouble at a Boxing Day hunt. Around 10 complaints have been made about how officers dealt with animal rights protesters. Wiltshire Police have been accused of sending too few cops to the antihunt demonstration in Lacock, Wilts, and not intervening to stop violence. Three people – aged 18, 26, and 30 – were arrested days after the incident. The Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner said: “So far 10 official complaints have been referred… relating to the policing response.” Pupils’ war of words SCHOOLCHILDREN in England will have to learn up to 1,700 common words in French, German and Spanish GCSEs. But headteachers warn the Government’s “risky” changes to the curriculum could stop kids choosing modern foreign languages at school. Geoff Barton, general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders, said: “At a time when pupils need to be enthused to learn languages, the Government has chosen to make GCSEs prescriptive and grinding.” But Schools Minister Robin Walker said: “We are making these qualifications more well-rounded and accessible.” Teen Elvis is all shook up Pictures: SOUTH WEST NEWS ★The first female to command the No 1 Army Training Regiment has taken on the role – from her husband.

Emilio Santoro, 19, did his first impression in a costume made by his nan, who introduced him to “The King” as a toddler. He said: “Everyone always says life’s too short, follow your dreams – and it couldn’t be any more true really. To be crowned KING OF KINGS: Young Emilio champion is just amazing. “I had a jumpsuit that my nan and auntie put together for me and ever since then I’ve wanted to pursue this as a career.” Emilio, who was crowned the European Elvis Tribute Artist Champion, performed as the All Shook Up artist in school talent shows before hitting the big time. He added: “It’s only just started sinking in now. I had a dream since I was at a young age that I wanted to be on stage. “At first I was nervous to pursue that dream but, since I started, I’ve never looked back.” The youngster, of Westonsuper-Mare, Somerset, will next perform in his home town, while his UK tour starts in November. news@dailystar.co.uk DAILY STAR, Saturday, January 15, 2022 23 TRAVEL QUALITY ALL-INCLUSIVE BREAKS FULLY ATOL PROTECTED LOW DEPOSITS FROM £69 PAY MONTHLY OPTIONS 4* DEALS FR £229 FREE COVID CHANGES* 4* ALL-INCLUSIVE BEACH HOLIDAYS CANARY ISLANDS, BALEARIC ISLANDS, GREEK ISLANDS, TURKEY & ALGARVE FREE DRINKS | FREE MEALS | FREE SNACKS | ENTERTAINMENT Departures Between Adults Fr Family of 3 fr Family of 4 fr Feb - Mar £289 £649 £699 Apr - May £229 £549 £629 June £249 £579 £759 Jul - Aug £299 £619 £899 Sep - Oct £249 £519 £669 PRICES BASED ON 7 NIGHT DEPARTURES / 14 NIGHTS FR £379 DEPARTURES AVAILABLE FROM ALL MAJOR UK AIRPORTS PRICE MATCH GUARANTEE RATED 4.6/5 ON TRUSTPILOT To book call now on 0207 183 6725 www.planmytour.co.uk T&C’s: * We currently charge no fees for amending holidays that are affected by Covid - see website for Full T&C’s *Prices are based from Any London airport there will be a supplement payable for regional departures.

The pair got engaged this week with the Hollywood actress gushing: “Just in every lifetime before this one, and as in every lifetime that will follow it, I said yes. And then we drank each other’s blood.” But this pair have got nothing on other stars, who have gone all out to pop the question.

They then headed home and celebrated with a meal of corned beef. While it’s not always been smooth sailing, the pair are still together now after marrying in 2008. Singer Pink proposed to Carey Hart in 2005 while the motocross star was in a race. She held up a board saying, “Will you marry me?” He didn’t pull over so she added: “Serious!” They wed six months later and are still together now. David Walliams slipped a £100,000 Tiffany ring into Lara Stone’s burger bun while they were on holiday. He’d spotted she always removed the top to take out the salad. They wed in 2010 but went their separate ways five years later. Actor Seth Rogen was so eager to propose to Lauren Miller, he rushed and started while she was topless. He joked: “I figured the only appropriate thing was to place the ring on her nipple.” Ludacaris & Eudoxie Mbouguiengue THE rapper and Fast & Furious star proposed aboard a private jet in Costa Rica in 2014. He had arranged for the words “Eudoxie will you marry me?” to be projected on to the ground below.

32 DAILY STAR, Saturday, January 15, 2022 JUST JANE JANE O’GORMAN SOLVES YOUR PROBLEMS TODAY ... AND EVERY DAY DS1ST Tech for her, talc for me... My ex spends a fortune on his new woman and I’m livid. He rarely put his hand in his pocket for me, yet she got designer clothes and expensive tech for her birthday and a diamond bracelet for Christmas. In 2018, he gave me a tin of talc for my 21st. I stalk them both online. She never stops showing off her hauls, while he brags about treating his lady “like a princess”. Puke. How come he was so mean when it came to me? JANE SAYS: Start the new year by unfollowing both of them and focusing on your own happiness. Your ex is out of your life and whatever he decides to do is no longer your business. I hate your use of the word “stalk”. I know you’re not doing anything illegal, but “stalking” suggests that you’re taking an unhealthy interest in this smug pair. Think of all the time and energy you’re wasting. The problem with social media is that we rarely hear the full story. She could easily be buying that stuff for herself. Accept that you have a life to live – and get on with it. Girl’s ‘love den’ romps How do I stop my new girlfriend you or whether you are on different from having casual sex with her pages. Talk to her openly and honestly. This is not a case of you be- flatmates? SEX WITH FLATMATES She shares a house with six other individuals. I’ve been over there a few times and there’s a very “chilled out” vibe about the place. Girls and guys wander around in a state of undress. They greet each other with a kiss on the lips and fall into bed with whoever feels horny. My girl admits she occasionally joins in but it’s not serious and it’s nothing to worry about. But I do worry. I eat myself up inside anytime we’re apart. I imagine her cavorting about and it kills me. She says I’m the only one she cares about and I need to be cool, but that’s easier said than done when the girls are gorgeous and the guys both look like Love Island contestants. JANE SAYS: Tell her you’re not interested in an open relationship and you’re looking for monogamy. You’ve got to find out if she is interested in dedicating herself to ing right and her being wrong. She’s perfectly entitled to do anything she likes in her own bed. But if you’re looking for a different kind of relationship then I wonder whether you’re suited. You can’t make yourself ill worrying about what she’s doing.

But is it probable? The fact is he could have seen the mole if he followed her to the gym, couldn’t he? Or perhaps if she wore a scanty top to work then the mole may have been visible. Kerrie has admitted that the guy has been pestering her at work, so the next time you see any of her other colleagues you could ask them about him. If you’re still worried you could always check out the gym when she’s supposed to be there. If the guy confronts you again, tell him that you and Kerrie love each other and there is no way she is leaving you. If none of that works then Kerrie should speak to her boss about him.

They recently took me to one side and said I’m too broke, too scruffy, and too embarrassing for their girl. The dad said he wanted me gone and “suggested” I break up with her as soon as possible. I know that my girl really loves me. I’m 27. JANE SAYS: You can’t allow yourself to be bullied. If you and your girl are happy together then you don’t have to answer to anyone.

Going downhill fast has never been so much fun in Mürren, the highest ski resort in the Bernese Oberland, where the technical discipline was first staged by British ski-racing pioneer Arnold Lunn. As a manager of his father Sir Henry Lunn’s tour-operating business (Lunn was also founder of Lunn Poly), Arnold organised races for his clients. He made the small village his headquarters in a campaign to gain international recognition for the new sport of alpine (downhill) ski racing, against the opposition of the Nordicdominated International Ski Federation, which considered langlauf (cross-country skiing) and jumping the only worthwhile forms of competitive skiing. Conscious that top-to-bottom downhill races were a test of bravery and strength rather than skiing skill, Lunn combined the downhill with a “style test” at the first British Ski Championships in 1921. But amalgamating marks for speed and style proved unsatisfactory, and the following year Lunn came up with something different: a turning race down a gated course, decided on speed alone, with no marks for style. Lunn wrote: “The object of a turn is to get round a given obstacle losing as little speed as possible, therefore, a fast, ugly turn is better than a slow, pretty turn.” Almost 100 years ago to the day, four skiers contested the first slalom race. Lunn founded the world’s first alpine ski-racing club, the Kandahar, at Mürren in 1924, and the first World Championship of Alpine skiing took place in February 1931. Downhill and slalom racing made their Olympic debut at Garmisch-Partenkirchen in 1936, where Arnold Lunn’s son Peter captained the British team. This week, a group of ski-racers will reenact the original slalom on the same course in Mürren, where a commemorative stone will be unveiled beside the Allmendhubel funicular in tribute to Lunn and the slalom pioneers. muerren.swiss Virgin Atlantic will launch a Dreamliner service to Austin, Texas, in May.

Fares start at £409 return. virginatlantic.com Alan Robertson discovers an unsung hero of the golf world ACE OF CLUBS A revamp saw the Portakabin replaced It was the best of Portakabins, it was the worst of Portakabins. For those who have had the pleasure of pitting their wits against the Kyle Phillips-designed Dundonald Links course, the winding road just off the A78 in Ayrshire led to a Portakabin for a clubhouse that had all the allure of… well, a Portakabin. “I remember driving up here for the first time ever, looking at it and going, ‘I’m in the wrong place,’” says club manager Ian Ferguson. “As much as you can dress it up, it is a Portakabin. “But there are people who loved that. There were about 17 sections. A lot of people had a soft spot for it – they called it the plushest Portakabin in golf. “We had it under temporary licence for about 13 years. My worry was it might become a listed building and we couldn’t take it down!” Ferguson can afford to laugh now he is sitting in a whisky-tasting room which can cater for 16 on the first floor of its replacement, the clubhouse being the most startling example of the Links’ £25million-plus OPEN CHAMP Rafa Cabrera Bello at the course ‘‘ Get a caddie. The course is challenging enough even when told where to aim investment. Its official opening in November offered a glimpse of the experience awaiting guests, including the Canny Crow restaurant – so named because the local crows pickpocket anything from golf balls to chocolate bars inside unattended golf bags – offering a superb dining experience. I spent the night in a six-bedroom lodge. There are 18 lodges altogether, along with 22 hotel rooms on site. Among these are two two-bedroom lodges and two hotel rooms that allow dogs, although my 88lb golden retriever would give the greenkeepers palpitations if let off the lead. My sprawling living space included a kitchen – allowing me to steer clear of company after those duffed chips in front of the clubhouse on nine – dining table for 12, pool table and three-sided sofa facing the 65in TV. The en-suite bedroom, which was bigger than my first city centre flat, comes complete with another widescreen TV, although spending time locked away is a waste of what is on the doorstep. MAIN COURSE Food and green are top quality Literally. Lodges are split into three clusters, each of which encircles a putting green like the crowd on 18 do any given Sunday, should you wish a wager or a workout. The entire place has been built to complement what is undoubtedly this spot’s biggest asset – the course. Kenny, the caddie for our three-ball, was our tour guide for a layout featuring bunkers so deep that, if their steps were removed, would require climbing equipment. I’ve played this links with a caddie and I’ve played this links without a caddie. Do yourself a favour and tap into the expertise of Kenny and his colleagues. The course is challenging enough, even when told exactly where to aim. It’s the little touches, though, that make this place memorable. The plaque in the middle of the 18th

Another nice touch was the label round the little duck perched next to the complimentary shampoo in the en-suite shower which says “take me home”, sending you away with a reminder of the stay besides the snapped seven iron. And the golf clubs spaced out in a series of circles on the ceiling of the first floor in the plush twostorey clubhouse, which saw the designer handpick them to make sure one didn’t look out of place.

Clarke goes from bouncer to boxer BOXING CLEVER by CHRIS McKENNA FRAZER CLARKE has been the peacekeeper in the past at big boxing shows. But now the Olympic bronze medallist is ready to throw punches in the professional game. Clarke, 30, has worked security at ringside for some of Britain’s biggest fights over the last decade. It was a way to earn a few extra quid to top up his salary as a GB amateur star. But it gave him a glimpse into the world of professional boxing and added to his hunger to one day be the star of the show. Now Clarke will be in the ring looking for a fight, instead of stopping them, when the heavyweight makes his pro debut on the undercard of Amir Khan’s clash with Kell Brook on February 19 at Manchester Arena. “I used to sit there with envy, I used to envy everyone and I would wish it was me,” said the Burton boxer who won bronze in Tokyo at super-heavyweight. “When I saw two heavyweights. I’d think, ‘I could beat them, I’d do him’. “I was just excited and wanted to be part of it. “Security was the closest I could be without actually being it. I knew my time would come, I am a patient person. The time is here now and I will take it. “It isn’t going to be a disadvantage being at them shows and in those places.

snooker: THE MASTERS Judd THUMP KO king Trump is boxing clever Judd Trump laid out rival Kyren Wilson with a series of hammer blows – then insisted the Masters atmosphere is now more boxing than snooker. The Juddernaut is chasing a second title at the prestigious invitation tournament at Alexandra Palace and reached the semi-finals with a 6-1 drubbing of Kettering’s Wilson. Last year world No.2 Trump had to withdraw from the event at the last minute when he was title favourite after testing positive for Covid. But he is revelling in the enthusiasm pouring out from the stands with the event back at its spiritual home, after a year behind closed doors in Milton Keynes. In a release of emotion during a post-match interview in the arena and fired up by the raucous 2,000 sell-out crowd, Trump – who made breaks of 68, 74, 50, 76 and 67 – roared out “Come on, baby!” He later added: “I won’t break into song like Tyson Fury yet, there are no tunes in me but I might do a bit of back-up singing for MC Rob Walker.

Sherrock (inset) had progressed to the final stages of the annual scramble for a Professional Darts Corporation Tour card on Tuesday by defeating three-times world championship quarter-finalist Wes Newton. But she needs to win today’s final qualifying event in Milton Keynes, her home town, to land one of the remaining 17 Tour cards among 128 players battling for a ticket to the circuit. Having lost 6-1 to American Danny Lauby in the first round on Wednesday, and 6-5 to Josh Richardson 24 hours later, she suffered another setback. After an encouraging 6-3 win against David Pallett for starters, she went out of the competition by the same score against Justin Smith, averaging just 85.74 in the process. Only winning the final competition outright will be enough for Sherrock to become only the second woman, after Lisa Ashton, to win a Tour card. Ashton, back at Q School this year, has fared little better, with her hopes dashed by a 6-0 defeat against Jamie Clark. A run to the latter stages today might be enough to regain her Tour place after an 11-darter and two 13-darters in her 6-5 win over Ryan Furness to reach the last 32.

And this afternoon he lines up against Toulouse with his club believing that he is ready to feature in Tuesday’s England squad announcement for the tournament. “Age doesn’t matter,” said Wasps boss Lee Blackett. “If players are good enough then they’re good enough. “Alfie comes up with big moments consistently and is only going to get better. “I would like to think he has done enough [to be selected].” CRICKET: the ashes FIFTH TEST day one back pain headaches scoreboard Fifth Test Match Australia v England (Day 1 of 5) Hobart: Australia have scored 241 for six wickets against England AUSTRALIA: First Inns D Warner c Crawley b Robinson.............0 U Khawaja c Root b Broad....................6 M Labuschagne b Broad.....................44 S Smith c Crawley b Robinson..............0 T Head c Robinson b Woakes...........101 C Green c Crawley b Wood..................74 A Carey not out..................................10 M Starc not out....................................0 B3 lb2 w1.....................................6 Total (6 wkts, 59.3 overs).........241 Fall: 3, 7, 12, 83, 204, 236.

NEW ERA: Paul Rowley (right) Ollie a sore point for England ■HEAVEN AND HELL: Ollie Robinson broke down after a superb opening burst & Red-letter day for boss Rowley BRODIE Croft and Paul Rowley will usher in a new era at Salford today as Super League’s pre-season kicks into gear. Red Devils boss Rowley takes charge of his first match against local rivals Swinton in one of five friendlies featuring top-flight clubs this weekend. Aussie half-back Croft – tipped as one of the hottest young stars Down Under when he broke through at Melbourne before moving to OLLIE ROBINSON was hauled over the coals by the England management for leaving them a bowler down after suffering a back spasm. Robinson, 28, was unable to bowl properly after the first break thanks to his sore back to leave yet another injury cloud hanging over the side in the middle of a Test match. With just four seamers and the part-time spin of Joe Root to throw at Australia, century-maker Travis Head was able to undo much of the great work Robinson had done before his back flared up. But it’s the concerns over his overall fitness that have left England rather unimpressed. “It’s definitely something to work on,” said bowling coach Jon Lewis. “It’s something he needs to improve. “He has to understand what it takes to be a fulltime year-round international cricketer. “We’re working on it with him. We’ve been pretty frank with him and now it’s up to him to go and do the work.” Robinson left the field complaining of stiffness which prevented him from properly following up his opening spell of seven overs that earned him 2-15 and a place in the history books. For the first time in 244 international innings together, both David Warner and Steve Smith had failed to trouble the scorers thanks to Robinson. He found both their edges and the slip cordon did the rest. And he should have had a third duck in his pocket but Marnus Labuschagne ■■ by GARETH WALKER Brisbane Broncos – is set to form a new half-back partnership with Marc Sneyd. And his boss is keen not to ask too much too soon of 24-year-old Croft. Rowley said: “Brodie’s been in some big environments with big players around him. “The main thing for Brodie is to take some pressure off and let him enjoy his rugby. “He’s very conscientious – as are most of the boys. I’ve ■■ from Dean Wilson in Hobart was dropped by Zak Crawley. That life together with a blistering second ton of the series for Head (below) helped Australia turn around their troubles from 12-3 to 241-6. But it also left England wondering what might have been had Robinson been able to follow up his sensational start. There have been questions about his fitness on this tour and his inability to keep his pace up throughout matches, but this was a huge way to let down his team-mates. Lewis added: “You lose one of the seamers after he bowls seven overs and it has a big impact. “He was bowling fantastically well. He gets a lot of bounce and that has caused Australia trouble.” This was the same Robinson who had played 36 holes of golf at an exclusive resort in the north of Tasmania on Tuesday before declaring himself fit. There is no question he has got the skill but on day one Head was just too good as he hit 101 from 113 balls. Cam Green was equally as confident in his strokeplay in his 74 that laid a decent foundation for the hosts on a green surface after being put in. never seen a group so keen to watch footage back from training and solve problems with the coaching staff. “Brodie leads that in a big way and is always wanting to learn. Him and Sneydy will be the starting two halves if fit, and will be a great partnership with different attributes.” Also today, former Red Devils coach Ian Watson takes his Huddersfield side to Championship Dewsbury. Close-season signings Chris Tom is well red ■■ by DEAN WILSON Tom Harrison has declared this winter’s Ashes mauling a “brilliant opportunity” to reset red-ball cricket in the English game. The Aussies have won 12 of the last 14 Ashes matches Down Under. ECB chief executive Harrison insisted: “Our priority is Test cricket. “We want to be successful at white-ball cricket, of course we do. “But we absolutely need to be successful at Test cricket. “It’s a brilliant opportunity for us to come together as a game and really sort that once and for all.” Rafiq’s new rap ■■ by DARREN WITCOOP AZEEM RAFIQ believes cricket is still “living in a lot of denial” about the problem it faces with racism. The ex-Yorkshire spinner last year blew the whistle on the abuse he suffered at the county across two spells between 2008 and 2018. And yesterday the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport committee recommended that cricket’s public funding be limited if it fails to “clean up its act”. Rafiq said: “I see Yorkshire trying to do the right thing but I do feel like the game as a whole is still living in a lot of denial.” Hill, Tui Lolohea and Danny Levi are all set to make their first Giants appearances but fellow recruit Theo Fages is not yet ready to play. Lee Radford takes charge of Castleford for the first time tomorrow against York City Knights. Hull FC are sending a young team to Bradford Bulls for Danny Brough’s testimonial while Wakefield will help mark the career of former full-back Scott Grix at Halifax.

Who could have predicted an even more unbelievable tennis storyline would unfold only four months later, even before the Australian Open had started? In normal times, world No.1 Novak Djokovic would be the red-hot favourite to win his 10th title at Melbourne Park on January 30 and set a new male singles record of 21 Grand Slams. But these Covid times are far from normal. And this latest tale does not have the same feelgood factor as Raducanu’s did. Now, the best that arguably the greatest male player of all time can achieve is to just play his first match at Melbourne Park, after spending a total of five nights in an immigration detention hotel. The worst case scenario for the Serb is that he will be deported tomorrow and banned from returning Down Under for three years before other countries follow suit. His career rests on the next 48 hours. After 21 consecutive on-court wins in Melbourne stretching back to 2018, and another in a very different court on Monday, he desperately needs another victory tomorrow. The latest twist follows Djokovic’s first visa getting cancelled in the middle of the night at Melbourne Airport. Court documents revealed the unvaccinated star’s basis for a medical exemption was contracting Covid last month. He then admitted an “error of judgement” in giving a face-to-face interview to a French newspaper after testing positive. The decision to cancel his visa for a second time was announced at 5.52pm local time yesterday in an apparent tactic to delay further legal action. And world No.4 Stefanos Tsitsipas claimed Djokovic made players who reluctantly got vaccinated, “Look like they’re all fools”. But Andy Murray insisted there were no winners in this ongoing saga. “I’m not going to sit here and start kicking Novak whilst he’s down,” said the Scot. “It’s not a good situation for anyone. It’s not great for tennis, not great for the Australian Open and not great for Novak.” The Djokovic affair has also not been good for Murray’s patience. He put his head on the interview table in frustration when quizzed on his fellow 34-year–old yesterday, after winning through to his Hit the road Djok ...and don’t you come back no more no more no more no more first ATP Tour final since 2019. “This is the second or third time I have been in here and I’m talking about stuff that’s going on with another player off the court,” moaned the former world No.1. “I would rather be talking about how delighted and happy I am that I’m back in the final of a tournament again.” But Murray, who announced he had received his booster jab before flying Down Under, added: “My feeling is that I would encourage people to get vaccinated, but I do feel like people should be able to make their own decision. “Ultimately people have to make their own choices. But there are also consequences sometimes for those decisions.” ■■ from NEIL McLEMAN in Melbourne October 2019. And he will return to the world’s top 100 by winning his 47th ATP Tour title against top seed Aslan Karatsev, who inflicted a first defeat of the year on Evans. World No.135 Murray, who has an Australian Open wildcard, said: “It’s obviously great to be in another final. “It’s already been a great week for me, big progress from anything I’ve done in the last DJOK ROCKED: ■ The world No.1 was dealt another blow in Melbourne TIME Murray finally ready to return to top 100 ANDY MURRAY reached his first ATP final for 27 months yesterday – but was denied an historic all-British showdown with Dan Evans. The Scot (left) cut down American giant Reilly Opelka 6-7 6-4 6-4 in the semi-final of the Sydney Tennis Classic. It is the first time the former world No.1 has reached a final since claiming the European Open in Antwerp in year or so, to string four matches together like this and against top players in Nikoloz Basilashvili and Opelka. “It’s been a good week, I’ve played better with each match, so hopefully I’ll step it up again tomorrow.” Two British players are still to meet in an ATP Tour final after Evans lost a bad-tempered match 6-3 6-7 6-3. The British No.2 complained about the Final tie-break From Back Page the chance to win a male record 21st singles Grand Slam. If he loses his case, he will be deported and risks a three-year ban from Australia. Another extraordinary day saw immigration minister Alex Hawke cancel the Serbian’s visa for a second time.

The Australian Open also announced that his half of the draw will play on Monday giving him even less time to prepare if he is still in the country. rewarded by drawing former French Open champion Iga Swiatek. Then Broady overcame in-form Russian Roman Safiullin 4-6 7-6 6-2 to reach his first main draw in a hardcourt Slam – and will face Nick Kyrgios if the Aussie has recovered from Covid. The winner will play No.2 seed Daniil Medvedev. Cam Norrie is the only Brit playing on day one on Monday against American Seb Korda.

Ranieri: This is my side ■■ by TONY BANKS CLAUDIO RANIERI says Watford now feels like ‘his’ team – so the buck stops with him. The Hornets face a week of three relegation battles, beginning with today’s clash at Newcastle, with three new players brought in at the start of the transfer window. Midfielders Hassane Kamara and Edo Kayembe and defender Samir Caetano are all available and Ranieri (inset) said: “This is my team. It is my team also when we lose. Not only when we won against Manchester United and Everton. It is my team. “I believe in this team. The club believes in me, don’t worry.” seriously football DS1ST premier league DAILY STAR, Saturday, January 15, 2022 41 OVEN REDDIES EDDIE Howe wants battleready signings and is not interested in playing fantasy football with Saudi Arabian cash. The Newcastle chief has landed Chris Wood for £25m and Kieran Trippier for £12m so far this window, and admits that “uncomfortable” prices have to be paid in January. The duo, both over 30, do not fit the profile that the footballing world anticipated the Toon would be hunting for when the multi-billion Saudi Public Investment Fund took over in October. Howe claimed this is the most “intense, complex” transfer window he has experienced as he looks for more faces to dig his side out of relegation trouble, with a huge game against Watford on today. He said: “We can’t hide from the pressure on us. When the takeover happened there was a lot of excitement and understandably so. But the immediate needs of the team in our current situation are very different to that initial expectation. “It is my job to cut out a lot Howe’s hot on his wise buys ■■ by SIMON BIRD of the noise and see what the team needs. The two deals we have done have been great business. “They make the squad better and have the right characteristics in terms of playing and attitude. And they are ready to play, that is a crucial thing for us. “There is nothing wrong with signing younger players for the future but there is a time and a place for those types of signings. With the current needs of my squad, the two guys we’ve signed were the right ones. “The cost of those players is uncomfortable, I’m sure for everybody. That’s not talking about the individual cases, it’s just the price of footballers.” Howe (left) admits that Newcastle’s position in the bottom three does not help when negotiating. He added: “The players have to want to join your battle in the fight to stay in the league, that is not an easy sell. Newcastle does have a huge pull in many different ways. So for me, the most important thing is to bring in the right characters.” Wood will make his debut up front against Watford and Howe hopes he can help get points on the board. He said: “We need wins. We can’t survive on draws, that won’t be enough for us. “Chris Wood is a bit different. I have never been shy saying I admire tall physical strikers who give you a platform to play. “Last week we put 30 crosses into the box. We were crying out for someone to put it in.” Newcastle continue talks with Lille over defender Sven Botman and Sevilla for centre-back Diego Carlos, but Howe says nothing is imminent.

The Premier League blew the rest of Europe away when it came to big-money deals, according to FIFA’s annual Global Transfer Report. Overall spending across the globe was £3.54bn and, even though that was down by 33.8 per cent on the pre-Covid record in 2019, it is still a staggering amount considering it comes in the middle of a pandemic. It does not even include domestic transfers – with Jack Grealish’s £100m move from Aston Villa to Manchester City setting a new British record – but still makes a mockery of clubs and leagues pleading poverty. Surprisingly, Norwich and Brighton appear in the top 20 list of spenders on international transfers while Manchester United topped the lot, signing Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund, Raphael Varane from Real Madrid, Cristiano Ronaldo from Juventus and Amad Diallo from Atalanta. Romelu Lukaku was the biggest deal as his £97.5m move from Inter Milan to Chelsea put everyone else in the shade. In fact, Premier English clubs still world’s biggest spenders ■■ by JOHN CROSS League clubs were responsible for seven of the top 10 deals which also included Sancho, Ibrahima Konate, Martin Odegaard, Diallo and Bryan Gil. Tammy Abraham’s £34m switch from Chelsea to Roma is in the top 10 too. It will only strengthen the claims from the EFL and grassroots football that the Premier League clubs should be doing more for the rest of the game. Former Sports Minister Tracey Crouch chaired an independent fan-led review calling for a 10 per cent levy on Premier League transfers. She said at the time: “I think many Premier League clubs will recognise that they do spend a significant amount of money in the transfer window and it will enable them to give more to grassroots. “Many of the fans and much of the public would see some of the eye-watering transfer fees and think, ‘How come more of that is not coming down the pyramid?’” The review pushed for an independent regulator to be brought in and these figures will put more pressure on the Government and Premier League to act upon the findings. FIFA Chief Legal and Compliance Officer Emilio García Silvero said: “In 2021, for the second consecutive year, the Covid-19 pandemic caused considerable difficulties in competitions right across the globe. “Football’s dynamic growth in the years prior to the outbreak of the pandemic was not completely disrupted, however. “Last year, 4,544 clubs (the highest-ever number and almost 400 more than in 2019) completed a total of 18,068 international transfers in men’s professional football, just a few transfers short of the all-time high of 18,080 recorded in 2019. “FIFA’s carefully planned assistance for member associations, clubs and players – such as financial support packages and amendments to various sets of regulations – have helped the game to grow even stronger, even in such a difficult period.” ■HOW MUCH?

seriously football premier league OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS FOR OX Alex tipped to grab chance LIVERPOOL boss Jurgen Klopp has backed Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain to have a big few weeks despite his Carabao Cup semi-final snub. The midfielder, 28, was not impressed to have been left on the bench for the first leg of the last-four tie against his former club Arsenal. Oxlade-Chamberlain must have been ready for the chance to impress this month. Naby Keita is at the Africa Cup of Nations while Thiago Alcantara is out injured leaving the Reds in need of something in their engine room. But Klopp (inset with Oxlade-Chamberlain) opted for 36-year-old James Miner to start in what turned out to be a drab goalless draw, with the ex- England man only appearing as a second-half substitute. His contract at Anfield runs out at the end of next season but, ahead of tomorrow’s clash with Brentford, Klopp said: “I’m very happy with Ox but I know he was ■■ by CHRIS mcKENNA disappointed on Thursday night. I get that 100 per cent. I would have been. “The thing is, with the situation we are in, we had to think how we start and how can we change, and the game developed slightly differently than we expected. “Ox could have started, he is in good shape. For me it was about starting how we started and we had with Curtis [Jones] and Oxlade – two offensive options wherever we use them and that is it. “But I’m absolutely happy with Ox, he is in a really good moment and we will see that in the next few weeks.” There could soon be more competition for Oxlade- Chamberlain, though.

Pep Guardiola’s side could be 14 points ahead of the Reds if they beat Chelsea today, albeit with the Merseysiders having two games in hand. But they will have to take on Brentford without Mo Salah and Sadio Mane who were badly missed against the Gunners. Klopp said: “They are not here and they are world-class players. Do we miss them? Yes. “It is not about who is not in, it is about how we can do better with the team who played on Thursday night. “We were not good enough in moments. That’s the situation, nothing to do with who is not here.

44 DAILY STAR, Saturday, January 15, 2022 DS1ST INTERVIEW ■■ by PAUL BROWN PAUL MERSON KANE SO VAR from GLORY Move to City his only hope now VAR will stop Harry Kane breaking Alan Shearer’s Premier League goals record – unless he goes to Manchester City. Tottenham had two penalties overturned after reviews when they lost to Chelsea in the Carabao Cup this week and Kane had a goal ruled out for offside as well. But that’s what the system is for – to rule out goals that shouldn’t stand. And it’s going to take more goals away from him in the league as he chases Shearer’s record. Over the two legs of the cup semi-final it was cringey how far Spurs were behind Chelsea. I really thought Antonio Conte would win a trophy there eventually. But I’m not so sure now. He needs about five players. You’re only as good as the people around you and, if you look at Tottenham now, who’s setting up chances for Kane? That midfield aren’t getting 15 assists each in a season. They’d be lucky to get 15 between them! Kane can’t do it all on his own. That’s where I think he gets frustrated. He’s still coming short to get on the ball. But if he went to City he’d score a lorry load of goals. He’s not beating Shearer’s record of 260 Premier League goals with the service he gets at Tottenham. Not with VAR – because every goal is in danger of being cancelled out. Kane is 90 behind Shearer’s all-time mark. And there’s no point coming second or third. It’s all about Shearer’s record. But Kane isn’t picking the ball up on the halfway line, beating three players and scoring. So he needs creative players around him. He’s 28 now. How many goals is he realistically going to score in that Tottenham team for the next five years? He’s got no chance. It would be phenomenal if he could beat that record. But I think it’s a big ask unless he’s at City, where they can win games 7-0. But it’s all about winning trophies anyway for me. If you look back over your career and you’ve got six bathrooms, wow, you can only have a pony in one. It’s all about trophies. And he’s not winning anything at Tottenham. Let’s be honest. They played a weakened team against Morecambe in the FA Cup and had to bring their big guns on. That tells you everything. I would like to see Kane win something. But he has no chance of winning anything at Tottenham the way they’re playing. So this weekend’s north London derby is a big one – because it could show again how far off being contenders Tottenham really are. I’d be surprised if Arsenal get beaten – and they’re AWAY. If they sign a first-class centre forward they are a shoo-in for the top four. If City don’t win the Champions League, they might come back in for Kane because he’s top drawer. But there are no guarantees in football and they’ve ended up doing fine without him in the ■ HARD TO WATCH: Conte sees Spurs’ Carabao Cup bid come to an end while Kane (left) scores but is ruled off-side by VAR Premier League, haven’t they? They’re going to win the title without him. But if they don’t win the Champions League I still think they have to take a chance and come back in for him. And they would probably get him cheaper because he’s a year older. They can afford it – they’ve got all the money in the world. They might as well pay £100m for him if it wins you the Champions League. I’m sure Kane’s agent will be watching what happens closely. OUR TOP COLUMNIST SHOOTS FROM THE LIP Digne deal is a rafa disaster RAFA BENITEZ should have swallowed his pride with Lucas Digne. I’m worried what direction he’s taking Everton in now. Just because you’ve probably had an argument on the training ground, don’t chop your nose off to spite your face. Digne is one of Everton’s best players. Swallow your pride, sit him down, give him a fine, and get him back in the team, even if he doesn’t like you. It’s childish from the manager. It’s like he’s thought, ‘Oh you can’t talk to me like that, I’m selling you’. It doesn’t work like that! These Everton fans are going to be there for years and years. Rafa’s (right) going to be there for five minutes. Don’t start selling their best players. I’m disappointed in the board as well, letting that happen. And I’d be surprised if Dominic Calvert- Lewin’s agent isn’t putting him about now as well. Where are Everton going? Aston Villa have done well there to get Digne. Very well. He’s a good attacking player who gives you great service, he’s comfortable on the ball, and he can defend. I’m shocked Chelsea didn’t go for him because £25m is not a lot of money for them. They haven’t been the same team since their wing-backs got injured. time to cough up mo money LIVERPOOL need to offer Mo Salah whatever he wants to get him to stay at Anfield. He’s one of the best players in the world. What are they going to do, sell him for £100m and bring in a player who is going to score half as many goals? Real Madrid did that, letting Cristiano Ronaldo leave and bringing in Eden Hazard. How did that turn out? Do the sums. Liverpool have just got to give him what he wants. If they want to carry on being a threat they will give him the money. If they don’t, they won’t. Simple as that. If they’re happy now with regular Champions League football after they won the league for the first time in decades, then they’ll save their cash. But if they want to go on and dominate football like they did all those years ago, I’m sorry but it’s time to put their hand in their pocket. No-one else is going to score the amount of goals for them that Salah (inset) does every season. Why this hasn’t been resolved yet, I do not know.

seriously football premier league DS1ST DAILY STAR, Saturday, January 15, 2022 45 toMORROW, 4.30pm SKY sports REF: Chris Kavanagh ANT ’N v anger at request From Back Page Emile Smith Rowe and Takehiro Tomiyasu are also doubtful. Arsenal said in a statement: “We have reluctantly taken this step but we have many players unavailable.” The Premier League board will meet and decide today on whether the game should go ahead. Arteta said: “We were ready to play a match and it was cancelled twice because the other team had issues so it can go both ways.” Meanwhile, scans have shown Aubameyang has suspected heart problems with the Gabonese Football Federation saying he has “cardiac lesions”. The GFF said in a statement: “According to the CAF medical commission, the players Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Axel Meye and Mario Lemina, barely out of the Covid, cannot take part in the match against Ghana. “The examinations would show heart problems. CAF did not want CAPTION: to take any sjhdg risks.” ■■ by JOHN CROSS that they cannot name 14 fit players which is the threshold set by the Premier League for games to go ahead. The top-flight board will meet this morning to decide knowing that Sky Sports will be keen for their prime Super Sunday game to go ahead. And other clubs will look on as Tuchel said yesterday he would be “very angry” if other clubs try to abuse the system. This is the first time Arsenal have requested a postponement but all eyes will now be watching as this becomes a WRECK Gunners taking the Mik with postponement MIKEL ARTETA is facing a bitter backlash from Arsenal’s Premier League rivals – and it is easy to see why. The Gunners only have ONE known Covid case, with Martin Odegaard (right) missing because of a positive test, and yet they have still asked for the north London derby to be postponed. That will infuriate Tottenham, Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel and the rest because, if this was not in Covid times, then the match would definitely be on. Instead, Arsenal are claiming ■ DOWN AND OUT: Fed-up Conte and (below) Spurs players after Carabao Cup defeat to Chelsea Conte demands Spurs back quest for major trophies ANTONIO CONTE has warned Tottenham they must match his ambition for success. Spurs boss Conte refused to give categoric assurances on his long-term future yesterday and made it plain that he wants the backing to challenge for major trophies. It is impossible to imagine that Conte, a proven winner at every club he has managed, would have taken the job without the promise of reinforcements. But even so, less than three months into his 18-month contract, the rumblings of discontent are clear. Asked whether he could assure the supporters about his future, Conte said: “Honestly I like to live in the present and not to think a lot of the future. “Now it is important to live in the present, to try in the present to improve the situation and get out the best of my players. “To work to improve the situation because the present is now, the future is later. Later could be too much later for us. “We have to be focused on the present and work to try to improve the situation now. Then I will see. “Now we have to be focused on the present and we have to work a lot to try to keep Tottenham in the right position.” And when pressed on being reluctant to give assurances, he said: “As you know I signed a contract for the end of the season and one year more. But I repeat, I am enjoying fascinating row which may set the tone for the rest of the season. Back in December with the Premier League season under serious threat, league bosses reinforced the message that any team able to field 14 players – which can include Under-23s with suitable experience – will have to play. But since then, clubs have been annoyed by what they see as inconsistent standards. However, Arsenal still feel aggrieved they had to play at Brentford in the season opener despite a series of positive tests ■■ by JOHN CROSS my time at Tottenham and I have a good relationship with the people in Tottenham, with our chairman, with our general director. “I want to work and improve this team. We have to be focused on the present to try to improve the situation.” If that was less than completely convincing, Conte made it crystal clear that his desire for success has not waned. When Tottenham got Conte they pulled off a huge coup but there is no way the Italian saw it as anything other than a chance to win trophies – and he expects to get the backing in the market to turn the squad into winners. Conte said: “I don’t lose my ambition and this must be very clear. I like to fight for something important. I like to fight and to be competitive. “I don’t want to lose my will, my desire. Otherwise I will go against myself. I have to be the same person in every moment and I want to keep this characteristic. “I am here for only two months. I think that we have to go to do the right things. I know it’s not easy because to improve the situation there is only the January transfer market.” Conte even looked strangely subdued in the Carabao Cup semi-final defeat to Chelsea on Wednesday night as Tottenham saw a chance to end their 14-year wait for a trophy disappear again. But he insisted that his determination is as strong as ever. “You have to ask the referee or fourth official if I was calm against Chelsea!” he laughed. “He would be surprised by this question.” and against Chelsea in the next match when they had at least seven positive cases among players and staff. Arteta said: “We had concerns already before the match against Liverpool. “We haven’t been able to assess the squad yet because we couldn’t fly last night, so we just arrived to the training ground and all the boys are being looked after.” Whatever happens next there will be some very angry and aggrieved clubs, players and managers in the Premier League.

46 DAILY STAR, Saturday, January 15, 2022 CHANCE: Mane Mane’s men not firing yet ■■ by GARY CHAPPELL Senegal were held to a 0-0 draw by Guinea at the Africa Cup of Nations with the result all but ensuring both teams’ progress to the knockout stages. Sadio Mane had a chance from a close-range free-kick early in the game but struck the wall with his effort. He was largely overshadowed by his Liverpool team-mate Naby Keita, who drove his Guinea side forward on frequent occasions. Senegal were without 10 players, all due to positive Covid tests, including captain Kalidou Koulibaly and first-choice goalkeeper Edouard Mendy. Morocco proved too strong for the Comoros Islands, winning 2-0 to stay top of Group C and ensure progress to the last 16. Selim Amallah scored after 16 minutes and Zakaria Aboukhlal struck late on to ensure the win after Youssef En-Nesyri had an 82nd-minute penalty saved. Malawi’s Frank Mhango scored twice as they stunned Zimbabwe 2-1 in Group B. Ishmael Wadi put Zimbabwe ahead in the first half but Mhango levelled just before the break and then added the second after 58 minutes to win the tie. DS1ST premier league seriously you must step up to the marc RALF RANGNICK has told Marcus football Rashford he must be more consistent if he wants to be a regular for Manchester United. Rashford, 24, is enduring the first real crisis of his playing career, bereft of form and confidence, and without a goal in his last 11 games for United. The England striker had a torrid time in United’s 1-0 FA Cup win over Aston Villa on Monday and is set to be on the bench for tonight’s Premier League trip to Villa Park. And although Rangnick praised his performances in training, United’s interim boss said the forward must translate that to matchdays. “In the first 20 minutes against Aston Villa he was good, he was on fire, he was emotionally involved,” said the German. “Then, after the first 30 minutes, he got worse and he didn’t play on the ■■ by DAVID mcDONNELL same kind of energetic level he did in the first half an hour. “It’s about showing that on a regular basis and continuously playing on a high level and again, for him, there is still room for improvement but the same is true of other young players. “I was not a striker myself as a player, but as a striker we all know it’s all about playing well, scoring goals and getting assists. “If that doesn’t happen over a period of time, it’s not so easy. “There were quite a few training sessions in the last couple of weeks where he trained on a really high level and that’s why I always gave him the chance to play again.” Despite Cristiano Ronaldo’s status as the most high-profile and decorated member of LADBROKES LADBROKES LADBROKES LADBROKE DBROKES GET OUR LADBROKES LADBROKES LADBROKES L LADBROKES BEST EVER LADBROKES ACCALADBROKES LADBROKE DBROKES LADBROKES LADBROKES LADBROKES L Boost Edit Track Insure LADBROKES LADBROKES LADBROKES LADBROKE DBROKES LADBROKES LADBROKES LADBROKES L taketimetothink.co.uk Ralf tells Rash to raise game United’s squad, Rangnick has no plans to take the armband from Harry Maguire (left) and make him captain. “Right now I don’t see a reason to do that, because Harry has been the captain so far and as long as Harry is playing, he will be the captain,” said the former RB Leipzig chief. “If he’s not playing, then someone else will have to be the captain. “This can change from game to game, depending on who is playing.” United have failed to kick on as expected in their six games under Rangnick, who admitted he wants to see a big improvement as his side try to get back into contention for fourth spot.

Ronaldo also accused United’s younger stars of failing to take on board his advice and interim boss Rangnick backed his stance, saying: “If it’s necessary to speak in a very direct manner to the boys, it helps a lot. “If Cristiano, for example, or any of the other players address that to the players directly on the pitch or in the dressing room, they are more than welcome to do that. “I will do that myself as a coach and my coaching staff will. “If one of our players in the game doesn’t give his very best and put all the effort into it, then I will address that, you can be assured of that. “So far I haven’t seen that but I don’t see any of the players who don’t care about the club or who don’t want to perform to the highest possible level.” Steven Gerrard is on a mission to give Aston Villa new boy Philippe Coutinho a platform to become a natural-born grinner once again. Villa boss Gerrard says the world needs to watch out if he can get the Brazilian star playing with a smile on his face. Coutinho is lined up to make his debut against Manchester United today, after his loan transfer from Barcelona. Gerrard can’t hide his excitement after making two ‘statement’ signings this week with the £25m capture of Lucas Digne from Everton. He says he can feel the buzz around the place already and ■ COLLECTOR’S ITEM: Rashford nets his last goal against Tottenham and (above) gets some advice from boss Rangnick Phil will be smiles better for Gerro ■■ by DAVE ARMITAGE expects Villa Park to be rocking in anticipation. And he is blanking any negative comments from Spain suggesting Coutinho (inset) still has a big point to prove after his £130m transfer to Barca four years ago. Gerrard said: “I know the player, and I’m confident we can get him moving. He’s a fantastic talent. “He needs to smile and enjoy his football again, feel his confidence and the support and I’ve no doubt we will see the real Philippe Coutinho. “Has he lost a bit of the enjoyment? Possibly, yes. I think Philippe would say that and that’s probably the reason why we had the opportunity to bring him here. “This is a player who needs to feel loved and supported, just like the majority of footballers. “It’s up to us, the staff, his team-mates, the fans to get him feeling good about himself because if you get a happy Phil Coutinho who is enjoying Taylor: We’ll get even with United WHEN Ian Taylor scored to help Aston Villa beat Manchester United in the Premier League, he never dreamed he would have to wait 27 years for a repeat home win. Taylor, a boyhood Villa fan who played 290 times for the club, can still remember the optimism at Villa Park on the first day of the season back in August 1995 when Alex Ferguson’s young United side were put to the sword. After Taylor’s opener, Villa led 3-0 at halftime. David Beckham’s consolation did not prevent Alan Hansen from savaging United on Match of the Day as he declared: “You can’t win anything with kids”. Hansen’s prediction was to prove spectacularly incorrect as United rallied to bag a League and Cup double. But Villa still haven’t beaten United at home in the top-flight since that day and saw hopes of a first major trophy since 1996 extinguished by a narrow FA Cup exit at Old Trafford on Monday night. Boss Steven Gerrard is likely to hand debuts today to Philippe Coutinho, 29, and Lucas Digne, 28, after ■■ by JAMES NURSEY their recent signings. Villa ambassador Taylor, who will be in the directors’ box for the clash, hopes the hosts can get their own back after the 1-0 Cup loss. The ex-Villa midfielder, 53, said: “After Monday night there is a bit of revenge in the air. We would like to give it back to them. We played so well and I thought we did enough to at least get extra time, so it was disappointing. “Now going into this weekend, I think the lads will be thinking back at Villa Park we have a great chance of beating them. “United are not in a great moment.” Dean Smith’s sacking in November upset many Villa fans as he grew up supporting the club. But the arrival of Gerrard, allied with four wins in his first six games, quickly got fans back on board. Taylor reflected: “The only teams we have lost to under Gerrard, aside from Brentford, have been the top teams. “I have been pretty happy with the way things are going and with the new signings we are looking up.” his football then you’ve got some player. Talent doesn’t leave you and quality doesn’t leave you.” Gerrard added: “I take zero notice of what people are saying in Barcelona. It’s not important. What is important is that we have signed a wonderful footballer. “An opportunity came along to get a player who has won two leagues in Barcelona. He’s won many cups for Barcelona, went on loan to Bayern Munich and won the European Cup. “It makes no sense to listen to keyboard warriors in Barcelona.”

48 DAILY STAR, Saturday, January 15, 2022 ABSENT: Boss Dyche Clarets KO for fifth time ■■ by DAVID ANDERSON BURNLEY’S clash with Leicester at Turf Moor today has become the fifth Clarets fixture to be postponed after Premier League chiefs accepted they did not have enough players. Burnley said they were unable to meet the Premier League’s minimum requirement of 13 outfield players and a goalkeeper because of positive Covid cases, injuries and the absence of Maxwel Cornet, playing in the Africa Cup of Nations. The Clarets had seven players plus manager Sean Dyche missing due to isolation following positive tests for last Saturday’s shock FA Cup defeat by Huddersfield. The League said in a statement: “The Premier League Board accepted Burnley’s application as the club does not have the required number of players available for the match due to Covid-19 cases and injuries.” Leicester is the fourth Burnley league game to be cancelled due to the number of positive tests, although it is the first time they have requested the postponement. The Clarets had three consecutive matches – against Watford, Aston Villa and Everton – called off last month because of cases within their opponents’ camps, while November’s home match against Tottenham was postponed because of snow. Burnley have had the most Premier League postponements and their rearranged game against Watford at Turf Moor is now in doubt. Meanwhile, Burnley are considering bids for Wales striker Kieffer Moore and Andy Carroll as they search for Chris Wood’s replacement. Dyche will be given funds from Wood’s £25m switch to Newcastle to buy a striker and the Clarets have been offered Moore and Carroll. Moore is available for £10m from Cardiff while Carroll, who has a rolling one-month contract at Reading, is available on a free transfer. seriously football blue Guardiola: We have Covid too From Back Page with positive tests. But Guardiola has fanned the flames ahead of today’s showdown at the Etihad by insisting the German is talking nonsense. City recorded 21 positive cases – including seven players – ahead of last weekend’s FA Cup tie at Swindon and have lost more personnel to the virus ahead of today’s clash. Guardiola said: “We have some new Covid cases. The Covid is all around the world and it’s not that in this part of the world there is no Covid.

today, 12.30pm BT SPORT REF: Craig Pawson thinking Tuchel’s aiming for the ■■ by DARREN LEWIS stars as he looks to close gap on leaders TWELVE MONTHS on since joining Chelsea, Thomas Tuchel’s report card doesn’t look too shabby. One Champions League win, an FA Cup final appearance and a place in next month’s Carabao Cup showpiece against either Arsenal or Liverpool. Paris St-Germain’s decision to throw him overboard looks silly. Chelsea’s decisiveness, bringing Tuchel in to replace favourite son Frank Lampard, looks inspired. Last month’s mid-season meltdown – just two wins in six Premier League games – may have blown a hole in their bid to reel in Manchester City, but Tuchel maintains he will never give up until he has led Chelsea back to the summit of English football. “We are never happy when we are behind our own standards,” he said. “This is where we are but, at the same time, we have trust and we are still hungry. “The season is not yet finished. We will never give up and we will try to bring out the very best that is actually in the moment possible.” Earlier this season, the European champions were outclassed in their own house as Gabriel Jesus gave City all three points. At the time both teams were level on points after six games. Pep Guardiola’s men, however, have since been imperious, winning all but two of their 15 top-flight games. Victory for City – currently 10 points clear – would surely end this season’s race as a contest. Tuchel agreed but remains quietly confident of his team’s ability to throw a spanner in the works. “Maybe,” he smiled. “Who knows? ■■ by DARREN LEWIS TOP SIX P W D L GD Pts Man City 21 17 2 2 40 53 Chelsea 21 12 7 2 29 43 Liverpool 20 12 6 2 34 42 West Ham 21 11 4 6 12 37 Arsenal 20 11 2 7 8 35 Tottenham 18 10 3 5 3 33 So far in the season as far as I’m concerned, they dealt better with injuries and the Covid situation. “Maybe they are lucky, maybe they do it better. “They have fewer injuries to key players, fewer days and weeks where they miss them. “They haven’t suffered from Covid like we have. This is the huge difference. We’ve had some draws that were unnecessary. “If you have your full squad you create a certain atmosphere for everybody that pushes everybody to the edge and you need to be on your edge, the very highest level if you want to compete with Man City. “But let’s play the game. I am always in for a good fight but also very realistic.” Tuchel suggested he has learned from his safety-first set-up against City earlier this season which failed to register a single shot on target. Although N’Golo Kante – one of a defensively-minded midfield three – is set to start this weekend, Tuchel suggested he could give City slightly more to worry about this time around. “My approach was the wrong approach tactically,” he said. “It was too defensive. It made us too passive. “Lesson learned. They were too aggressive for our build-up play, we did not have the solution to escape from our own half. “If we have the squad, feel good and are in a good shape, we are always up for a good fight. “We are always there to push them to the limit and ask some questions that maybe they won’t like to answer. “But the situation is that they are very strong, very consistent and perform at the absolute highest level.” DS1ST ■WE MEET AGAIN: Guardiola and Tuchel opposed each other in the 2021 Champions League final DAILY STAR, Saturday, January 15, 2022 49 v ■LAST TIME: Gabriel Jesus scored the only goal in September ■BLUE-MING: Chelsea face Man City on the back of beating Spurs thanks to Antonio Rudiger’s goal in midweek TODAY 1-2-x guide (3pm unless stated) Premier League 1 Aston Villa v Man Utd (5.30pm).......

2 DS1ST Saturday, January 15, 2022 The NO.1 pullout that scores EVERY time The boss said my time would come and it’s happened young star tella ready to shine with his pals EXCLUSIVE NATHAN TELLA believes that Southampton’s youthful band of brothers can herald a new era at St Mary’s. The midfielder is part of a formidable foursome of young pals along with Tino Livramento, Will Smallbone and Armando Broja who have formed a strong bond down on the south coast. And it is now showing on the field for a reviving Saints side. The quartet have become virtually inseparable since they came together at the start of the season when Broja, 20, on a season-long loan, and Livramento, 19, joined from Chelsea. Alongside Smallbone, 21, they bonded as they changed together in a mini dressing room due to Covid restrictions. Off the field they hang out together, and pore over the FIFA computer football game that all four are avid players of – running the same virtual team. Tella, 22, last week signed a new long-term deal keeping him at St Mary’s until 2025, just days after the club announced they had been taken over by the Sport Republic group. On the field, as Tella began to cement his place in the Saints line-up after a frustrating start to the season, Ralph Hasenhuttl’s team began to find their form with a run of only one defeat in eight matches as they head into today’s clash at Wolves. Tella said: “You always see the four of us together, me Armando, Tino and Will. We are never far apart. “It shows when we go on the pitch, we know how each other plays. Crystal Palace away was the first time the four of us had been on the pitch together. I could feel us building a relationship. “We all get on really well, play FIFA together.

His breakthrough campaign at Saints was 2020-21 when his performances saw him tagged ‘Starboy’ by the fans. But the arrival of several new faces last summer had him confined to the bench. He went to see Hasenhuttl and was told to be patient. His mates were a huge help at a tough time and Tella added: “The boss told me my time would come. Thankfully enough it has happened. It’s great to be in the starting 11 now. I want to be a Premier League player.” Another key factor for Tella, who left Arsenal where he was alongside players like Bukayo Saka, Emile Smith Rowe and Eddie Nketiah to join Saints in 2017, was the advice from another former Gunner in Theo Walcott. Tella said: “When I first came into the team it was his first season back here. I used to watch him at Arsenal, and when he played for England. “But to be able to train and play alongside him was like, ‘Wow.’ He has helped me so much, such a nice man. I have learned so much from Theo.” Tella reckons that Saints, currently in mid-table, can build on their solid first half of the season. He puts that down to red-hot Broja who is in fine form up front hitting three goals in his last eight games. Tella added: “If you give Armando half a chance in the box, nine times out of 10 he will score. We all know that when Armando is on it, he is so on it.”

The NO.1 pullout that scores EVERY time ■AWESOME FOURSOME: Tella and Broja, Livramento and Smallbone (right) DS1ST bruno is all four traore ■■ by james nursey BRUNO LAGE says he will continue to keep picking Spurs target Adama Traore and wants him to stay despite admitting every player has their price. Spain international Traore, 25, is wanted by Premier League rivals Tottenham after refusing to sign a new deal at Molineux. He has only 18 months left on his contract and could be sold this month if Wolves get a huge bid. But boss Lage picked Traore to start their last game and he is set to be in the squad for Southampton’s visit today. Lage, in charge since the summer, said: “The only thing I can say is it’s the same Adama since the first day. Every time he is training well and doing things as the big professional he is. Nothing has changed. “If you look at our 19 league games, he has started at least half of them. When he has not started in the first XI, he has jumped from the bench to help the team. But the club talked with Adama before and he has one year left on his contract. “The most important thing for me as a manager is – and it is not just about Adama – if it is good for the club and good for the player, we need to find a different solution.” Traore is competing with Trincao, Daniel Podence and Hee-chan Hwang to play up front off Raul Jimenez. Lage said: “Trincao, Adama, Daniel and Hwang are different and this is good for me. “I can play in a different way because of them. In this moment I prefer to keep the four wingers I have.” IN CONTENTION: ■ Adama Traore ASTON VILLA v MAN UNITED LUCAS DIGNE and Philippe Coutinho could make debuts for Villa, who have John McGinn banned.

Liverpool, Manchester City and Bayern Munich are tracking the winger because of his red-hot form and Leeds plan a second round of contract talks to tie him down at Elland Road. Bielsa claims Raphinha has become Leeds’ best player during his 18 months at the club and backs offering him a new deal. “It’s a great decision,” said the Leeds boss ahead of tomorrow’s clash with West Ham. “Raphinha’s the best player. Physically he’s the best, techni- Brazil ace Raph is Bielsa’s fave WEST HAM v LEEDS toMORROW 2pm, SKY Sports REF: M DEAN cally he’s at the level of the best and his interpretation of the game is very wise. “He’s within the group of such a powerful nation as Brazil, he shines in the Premier League and he has the attention of all the big clubs in the world.” Leeds have ruled out selling Raphinha this month and Germany defender Robin Koch feels he will stay because he hasn’t quizzed him about Bayern. “He’s important for our team,” he said. “I’m happy he didn’t ask me about the Bundesliga, so I hope he will stay at Leeds.” The Whites are finding it harder to hang on to their younger players and Cody Drameh joined Cardiff on loan this week because he felt he would get more opportunities there. Bielsa blames himself for Drameh’s unwillingness to stay and admits he is struggling to relate to young players. “There have been opportunities for everyone and despite that, the project is not sufficiently attractive for them,” he said. “When you are in disagreement with the new generation and their decisions, that is not down to the youngsters but a lack of adaptation on my part. “If a footballer in development says this is no longer good for me, evidently there is an error in the calculation of those who project this.” ■ RAPH OF GOD: Raphinha is attracting attention of Europe’s top clubs ■STOP ME IF YOU CAN: The Brazilian takes on the West Ham defence in the FA Cup moyes is pointing the way DAVID Moyes set his West ■■ by IAN WINROW have had a great season, so Ham side a two-point target “Last year we started to think we’ll keep challenging.” to boost their top-four bid at about what we might be able Moyes, who saw his side the start of the campaign. to do a bit later on, when beat Norwich 2-0 in midweek, And the Hammers boss we’d come out of the January believes leading scorer admits they are ahead of schedule and thought there Michail Antonio is better schedule as they prepare to might be a real chance here. equipped to handle the face Leeds tomorrow. “We challenged the demands of the run-in West Ham finished two players to build on it. after struggling points behind fourth-placed So this season the during the second Chelsea at the end of last challenge was laid half of last season. season – prompting the down from the start.

The Toffees boss had lunch with the Iranian billionaire as the Blues plan to add more names to their squad before the window closes to turn their form around. Benitez said: “Mr Moshiri and myself were talking about what we did in the transfer window, what we would like to do, if it is possible, what we would like to do in the future, the stadium, so a lot of things about the future of the club. “It was quite positive. The main thing for us is to win games and 5 DIG FOR VITORY ■■ by CHRIS McKENNA VITALII MYKOLENKO is living a dream to play for Everton – but admits the pressure is on to replace Lucas Digne at left-back. The Toffees signed the Ukrainian international from Dynamo Kiev last week in a move which left the player in tears of joy. He had never even dreamed it would be possible to play in the Premier League while his parents found it hard to believe their son would be heading for England. But now he has been tasked by Blues boss Rafa Benitez to take over from Digne following his departure to Aston Villa. “We always dream and taking into consideration that England is the birthplace of football means that England is a benchmark in my view for all things football,” said Mykolenko, 22. “Clearly every kid should dream of playing here. I have to confess NORWICH v EVERTON today: 3pm REFEREE: Andy Madley that I didn’t have those dreams of playing in the Premier League because I was just a regular kid and I wasn’t living in the clouds, in the fantasy world. “Nevertheless I am here now and I will do everything I can to show that I belong here. “My parents refused to believe that it is happening and it is for real. That’s how unprepared we were for this good news and now I am basically living in a dream.” The sale of Digne (inset) has left Mykolenko as the only recognised senior left-back at the club and he added: “It is a massive IMAGING CUTS PLEEZ ■NEW BLUE: Mykolenko Mykolenko vow to fill Lucas’ boots responsibility and I totally, totally feel it.

He was also a ball boy when the Toffees visited the Olympic Stadium in Kiev and were beaten 5-2 to be dumped out of the Europa League in 2015. He could make his Premier League debut this afternoon at Norwich having appeared in last Saturday’s FA Cup win at Hull.

I have watched clips of him, and I can see why the manager said that. “I was friends with his nephew, Cameron Gascoigne when he was at Newcastle’s academy, and he played for Hebburn as well. “But obviously the levels from me to Gazza are a million miles away at the minute.

Britain’s number one racing pullout DS1ST Saturday, January 15, 2022 in association with StarForm ■HAT-TRICK HUNTER: The improving Green Book has won on his last two outings Inside HUGH BEAUTY Rider reaches for the Stars PAGE 4 1 ■■ by JASON HEAVEY gREEN BOOK can give 10lb claimer Ned Fox a dream success in the Coral Lanzarote Hurdle (2.40). The young rider (right) has made a good impression with a clutch of victories in recent weeks and Venetia Williams’ five-year-old is on an upward curve. Fox , 21, was in the saddle when Green Book won cosily at Haydock and the horse followed up when beating two subsequent winners at Ludlow. The ground is drying a little at Kempton but should still ride fairly slow and Green Book, at 6-1, is preferred to Marie’s Rock – who has attracted huge support – with Fox good value for his claim. The well-handicapped Ch’tibello and the improving Earth Lord are among a host of others with a shout. But the best each-way play could be the 18-1 poke William Henry, who won the contest in 2018. He is 6lb lower than four years ago, and although he is now 12, he comes with a low mileage.

2 Saturday, January 15, 2022 StarForm DS1ST britain’s number one PROGRESSING: Buzz Buzz on road to recovery ■■ by CHRIS GOULDING BUZZ, denied the opportunity of lining up in the Stayers’ Hurdle at Cheltenham in March after fracturing his pelvis, is making a good recovery. Trainer Nicky Henderson said Buzz was being a “good patient”. “We will re-examine and re-scan that pelvis on Monday, or the beginning of next week. “He is a lovely horse, and he is having a boring time, but he has been very good. So far, so good, but it is a long process.” The Cesarewitch winner injured his pelvis on Henderson’s Lambourn gallops 24 hours before he was due to run in last month’s Long Walk Hurdle at Ascot. The six-time champion trainer, who missed Constitution Hill’s victory in last Saturday’s Tolworth Hurdle at Sandown as he was self-isolating after contracting Covid-19, has been given the all-clear and can’t wait to get out and about again. “I’ve been box walking, but I’m feeling all right,” said Henderson. “Like Buzz, I’ve been very good, and I’m being allowed out. In truth, they’ll be glad to get rid of me.” Perfect Peslier ■■ by JASON HEAVEY OlivIer Peslier made his first ride in Dubai for four years a winning one as he pounced late on Pevensey Bay to claim the Group Two Cape Verdi at Meydan yesterday. Peslier kept his cool and delivered the six-year-old mare, trained in France by Hiroo Shimizu, with a beautifully-timed run to nail Ascot Brass close home. He said: “I have had some good success here and this was my second ride this year. “I rode on Thursday in Pau and then took the plane to come back here and win. “This is good.” SURREY IN A HURRY SURREY QUEST (2.25, trb) is fancied to continue his rapid progression by taking the Ballymore Leamington Novices’ Hurdle at Warwick. The Grade Two has been won by some very good horses – Inglis Drever (2004) and The New One (2013) among them – and Nicky Henderson’s five-year-old might also have a big future. He impressed with cosy victories at Leicester and Doncaster and is tipped to reel in the likely front runner Gentleman At Arms, who looks overpriced at 11-1. The Agetur UK Ltd Classic Chase is a tremendous betting heat and one of the highlights of nine ITV4 races. Last year’s winner Notachance is running off the same mark, and although he has been out of form, there was a bit of encouragement at Haydock on his latest start. But a chance is taken on the forward-going NO REMATCH (3.00), who ran a solid race at Chepstow on his return in December before tiring. He will come on for the run and looks nicely handicapped. He has attracted some strong support in the past 48 hours and is into 8-1. Achille ran a blinder in the Welsh National after losing ground at the start and is a major player while each-way backers might have a few quid on Captain Tommy (14-1), for whom Paddy Brennan is a notable jockey booking. THREEUNDERTHRUFIVE (1.50) is an out-and-out stayer and by JASON HEAVEY ■GOOD COMPANY: Surrey Quest can join some big names who have won the Leamington Novices’ Hurdle at Warwick Nicky’s rising star to reach new heights his stamina should see him home in the Grade Two Wigley Group Hampton Novices’ Chase, while ALAPHILIPPE (3.35), fifth in the Albert Bartlett at Cheltenham last March, should be hard to beat in the Pertemps Qualifier. CHAMPAGNE COURT (1.32) has been running well over hurdles and is on a decent handicap mark over fences, so he will be hard to beat at Kempton. DEFI DU SEUIL (2.05) has become disappointing but would eat his rivals alive if near his best and is a tentative tip in the Coral Silviniaco Conti Chase. Finally, the admirable KITTY’S LIGHT (3.15) is fancied to get a deserved success in the Coral Committed to Safer Gambling Handicap Chase. ■MORE TO COME: No Rematch should improve for his seasonal return

DS1ST Saturday, January 15, 2022 3 PULLOUT FOR BIG WINNERS in association with MAKE MINE A DOUBLE WITH just 10st 6lb on his back, course and distance winner BRAVE SEASCA (1.18) can complete his hat-trick for the bang-in-form Venetia Williams when he rocks up in the Edward Courage Cup Handicap Chase over two miles at Warwick. Having obliged off a perch of 126 at Exeter last month, CHAMPAGNE COURT (1.32) can follow up off a revised mark of 130 in the Coral Free Bets Handicap Chase run over two and a half miles at Kempton Park. Even allowing for a 5lb penalty, THREEUNDERTHRUFIVE (1.50) will take all the beating in the Wigley Group Hampton Novices’ Chase run over three miles at Warwick. Paul Nicholls’ horse has won his last trio of starts over fences in the style of a top-class animal. MISTER FISHER (2.05) has won two of his three starts at Kempton Park, and on the other occasion he failed to stay three miles in the King George. Back racing over his optimum distance in the Coral Silviniaco Conti Chase run over two miles and four furlongs at the Sunbury venue, Nicky Henderson’s beast can regain the winning thread. Aidan Coleman is a mustard booking for SURREY QUEST (2.25) when he attempts to complete his hat-trick in the Ballymore Leamington Novices’ Hurdle run over two miles and five furlongs at Warwick. Nicky Henderson holds a strong hand in this Shuffle laid out for repeat VIEW FROM THE COUCH By Mark Winstanley ■KEMPTON KINGS: Double Shuffle and Mister Fisher (right) have excellent course form sphere with the likes of Jonbon and Constitution Hill, and this creature looks another potential top-notcher after bolting up at Doncaster and Leicester on his two spins over timber. COBBLERS DREAM (2.40) may not be a shoo-in off a mark of 128 in the 20-runner Coral Lanzarote Handicap Hurdle run over two miles and five furlongs at Kempton Park, but this progressive sort is worth an each-way nibble around the 10-1 mark with a benevolent bookmaker paying five places. This ex-Irish bumper winner showed a nice turn of foot to account for 13 rivals at Doncaster in December when rated 122, so the assessor has been very fair by raising him only 6lb. Having backed GERICAULT ROQUE (3.00) at Newbury last time out over three and a quarter miles, it was galling to see him outpaced on the run-in and wind up with only a silver medal. David Pipe’s improving young horse gets the chance to go one better in the Agetur UK Ltd Classic Chase run over three miles and five furlongs at Warwick. He is 6lb higher in the weights today, but this longer trip should see him in an even better light. There can be no doubt that Tom George has laid out DOUBLE SHUFFLE (3.15) to land the Coral Handicap Chase run over three miles at Kempton Park, as the 12-year-old captured the race last year off a rating of 140. The veteran runs off a ledge of 141 this time around, so after two runs this term he is entitled to be on the premises over his favourite course and distance. He was only beaten a length in the 2017 King George. Looking at the Pertemps Network Handicap Hurdle run over three miles and a furlong at Warwick, RIGGS (3.35) makes plenty of appeal getting weight from his six opponents. Dan Skelton’s slick-jumping horse was second in a red-hot heat at Haydock Park in November when running off a ledge of 127, for which the assessor lifted him to a mark of 132. But as the fifth, seventh and eighth have come out and won since, the form is very solid. With 10st in his saddle, Harry Skelton will be on a strict diet to do the feather weight. FESTIVAL DREAM FOR KOTMASK STILL ON TRACK Kotmask moved a step by JASON HEAVEY closer to fulfilling owner in last year’s Grand Gary Robinson’s dream National behind Minella of a winner at the Times, will have two Cheltenham Festival more outings before with a gritty success at tackling this year’s race Huntingdon. on April 9.

Although beaten next time when upped in trip for the Peterborough Chase, Eldorado Allen has been pleasing trainer Colin Tizzard and connections believe ■■ by JASON HEAVEY he will stay the trip. Tizzard junior (below) said: “He got the trip really well last time at Huntingdon.

Hugh Nugent partners the 11-year-old for his grandfather, Tim Nixon, the owner and also the breeder. “Two years ago, we finished sixth in the race,” said Nugent. “He obviously ran very well but to me he feels in better form than he did then. I think he’s got a good chance.” With two generations of his family in attendance today, Nugent hopes Head To The Stars can emulate events that took place at Leicester in 2016. “He gave me my fourth winner under Rules and my first winner for my grandad,” said Nugent. “He was there, as was my grandmother and dad, and although it was only Leicester on a Wednesday it was very special. It means a lot when it is for the family.” Henry Daly, trainer of Head To The Stars throughout his 29-race career, offers hope but also caution. He said: “He seems in good order and I’m happy with him. He’s had a lot of issues with stifles [joint in the hindleg] and has a unique style with his jumping, but he’s in good heart.” Nugent is from a family ■■ by CHRIS GOULDING rooted in racing. His grandad David Nugent and grandmother Eliza once owned the gallops in Lambourn and trained under a permit, but he admits he was late to the game. “Like most teenage boys I was into football,” said the 26-year-old. “I did not sit on a racehorse until I was 15. “But once I discovered racing and got bitten by the bug, I never looked back.” He is now in his fourth season with Venetia Williams. Ironically, Nugent was a recipient of a charity that he helped fund. Three years ago, he raised money for the Injured Jockeys Fund and Mind (mental awareness) after cycling to the 26 racecourses in Ireland. “A year ago, I broke my leg,” he said. “So, I’ve experienced the IJF first-hand. Without them we would be lost.” As for the future, it is about adding to his 39 winners. If success is achieved today, Head To The Stars might become a player for the Grand National. Warwick proved the stepping stone for the 2017 winner One For Arthur, who triumphed in that year’s National. “If he was to run very well you might think about it,” said Nugent. “You never know, we can all dream, can’t we?” ■FAMILY AFFAIR: Racing is in the blood of Hugh Nugent.

8 Saturday, January 15, 2022 StarForm DS1ST number one FOR RACING FABULOUS FIVE LUTTRELL LAD (16-1) Betfair Hurdle, Feb 12 The Philip Hobbs-trained runner ticks plenty of boxes for Newbury’s big handicap. Novices aged five or six often do well in it and Luttrell Lad has some useful form to his name. Fourth in a decent bumper behind Knappers Hill, Peking Rose and Stage Star at Aintree, he justified short odds on his hurdling debut. Runner-up in the Persian War, Up For Parol was 13 lengths behind and he is now off a perch of 133 after a recent win. Soaring Glory won the Betfair off that mark last season and Luttrell Lad has scope from 135. He split useful pair Jpr One and I Am Maximus at Exeter, when he hit the front earlier than ideal. A decent pace should see the selection in a better light too, as he is a keen racer. ■HOBBS’S CHOICE: Luttrell Lad Melissa Jones marks your cards with five ante-post fancies for some of the big races coming up in the next few months… SIR GERHARD (5-1) Supreme Novices’ Hurdle, Mar 15 Jonbon and Constitution Hill set the hurdling standard in what looks an excellent renewal of the Festival opener. Nicky Henderson could be tempted to split the pair, with the latter the more obvious candidate to get further. But despite all the talk about the British hopes, Sir Gerhard is still available at 5-1. Yet to match the front two over obstacles, his price will contract significantly if stepping up to the mark. Crucially, he jumped quickly on hurdling debut and when he got in tight he worked it out. ■ PERFECT TEN: Escaria Ten has the right Grand National credentials There is great pace in his breeding and Willie Mullins has won five out of the last nine runnings. Sir Gerhard also has that allimportant Festival win to his name already. ESCARIA TEN (33-1) Grand National, Apr 9 A fine chasing type, Gordon Elliott’s charge received a Thyestes entry at Gowran Park this week. The strong stayer was favourite to win the National Hunt Chase and finished third. Adrian Heskin sent him to the front in the straight and he lost little in defeat against Galvin, now a key Gold Cup candidate. Less experienced than his stablemate over fences, he ran below par in the Irish Grand National on his final start. That could have come too soon for the quality chaser, who has the rating to earn an Aintree spot. Connections would love to have a runner in the race and he has plenty of potential going forward. JANIKA (25-1) Skybet Chase, Jan 29 Owners Simon Munir and Isaac Souede were unlucky not to win this race in 2018 with L’Ami Serge. Now in Janika, they ■CHASING PRIZES: Janika is ready to bounce back in association with have a contender who is well-treated, with a hint of what might be to come. Lightly campaigned in recent seasons, he was fifth in the Coral Cup off 145 but his best form is over fences and, down to 148, he has each-way appeal. Seventh at Cheltenham most recently, he ran as though he was short of match practice on the back of wind surgery. This is a horse who only a few seasons ago finished second in a big Festival handicap from 156. Some better ground at Doncaster and a new trip of three miles could bring his spark right back. HAUTE EN COULEURS (14-1) Turners Novices’ Chase, Mar 17 Ferny Hollow is right at the top of the Cheltenham Festival bankers list and Blue Lord enhances Wille Mullins’ Arkle hand. So Haute En Couleurs could be the one to take on Bob Olinger and co. The ante-post favourite is very good but his jumping wasn’t entirely convincing on debut and a question mark hangs over the form of Henry de Bromhead’s stable. Haute En Couleurs has the same sire as the likes of Burrows Saint and Djakadam so is bred to stay well. He began life for the stable in the Triumph, which shows he’s highly thought of, while he got racing too far from home at Punchestown. The French-bred gelding finished strongly to make a winning start over fences, in a quicker time than Envoi Allen on the card – and he rates an exciting prospect. ■SUPREME CHANCE: Sir Gerhard ■FESTIVAL FANCY: Haute En Couleurs C - Chelmsford City K - Kempton L - Lingfield Wa - Warwick We - Wetherby A Toi Phil....................

STARFORM: Lastofthecosmics Danger: Eveque ■TOP ATTRACTION: Bob Olinger is a red-hot favourite to win at Punchestown tomorrow Saturday, January 15, 2022 in association with FARRAWAY THE BEST VALUE AT PUNCHESTOWN Bob Olinger will be the star turn at Punchestown but the main attraction from a punting perspective could well be FARRAWAYBAY (1.45). Mark Molloy’s progressive eightyear-old looked a well-handicapped hurdler when scoring nicely at Navan in November. She was raised 8lb for that but didn’t really get the chance to prove up to her new mark when well held next time. She had made really nice progress through the pack in that Leopardstown heat before her run was blocked before the last, and she could never get on terms after that. Compensation could await in the Punchestown Gift Vouchers Mares Handicap Hurdle. SERIOUS EGO (2.40) looked like a hurdler who could score off a higher mark when routing his rivals off 110 at Haydock a year ago. Nicky Richards’ (above) charge has yet to do so, but showed the time may be near with a nice second at Hexham on his return from a seven-month SUNDAY SERVICE Melissa Jones batters the bookies break before travelling well and then fading over 2m4f last time. His best form is over 2m, and he’s back over the minimum trip in the Kelso Betting Ring Bookmakers Handicap Hurdle. KIRITIMATI ISLAND (3.30) is unlikely to be missed in the market after powering home for a close second over the minimum trip on his handicap debut. But he looks too good to resist back up to seven furlongs in the Coral Proud To Support British Racing Handicap at Southwell. He is open to loads of improvement and has to go close in a race that it not too competitive. The Betway Handicap is a tight little race but ASADJUMEIRAH (4.00) should be backed to go one better after running a career-best when just touched off on his first start for Antony Brittain earlier this month. 9

StarForm ■TROPHY FANCY: Icaals Rocco Time right to Rocco ’n roll ICAALS ROCCO (11.54) can make his rivals see red in the Ladbrokes.com Winter Guys & Dolls Trophy Final at Crayford this morning. The live-on- SportyStuff/RPGTV card from the Kent track features three finals with John Mullins holding a strong hand in the main event – he also trains impressive heat winner Russian Blake. However, a better exit from Icaals Rocco could reverse placings. Blackrose Pippa (12.39) did us a turn last week and can further improve her growing reputation by winning the Ladbrokes.com New Year Maiden Stayers Trophy Final. Recently stepped up in trip by trainer Patrick Janssens with the Premier Greyhound Racing Golden Jacket in mind next month, a fast start laid the foundation for success in the heats and a repeat does the trick in the decider. The other final on the card is the New Year Stayers Trophy where another John Mullins-trained runner Nightingale Don (11.09) can triumph. Monmore also stages a clutch of opens on RPGTV tonight with the pick of the wagers being Patricia Cowdrill’s well-drawn by JONATHAN HOBBS Elderberry Sky (7.24), Gary Griffiths’ Great Name That (7.44) and Mark Wallis’ progressive Antigua Cuddles (8.23, below). ■ SUFFOLK DOWNS will become greyhound racing’s newest venue next month. The track, formerly known as Mildenhall, began trialling this week after its licence to race was granted by the GBGB. Greyhounds will race over 220m, 388m, 548m and 716m, with Suffolk Downs forming part of the SIS service. Promoter Kevin Boothby said: “We are absolutely delighted to have secured our racecourse licence and to reopen soon. “My thanks go to Paul Illingworth and everyone at the GBGB for their support in getting us up and running.” GBGB director of regulation Phillip Law said: “This is a real boost and represents the ambition all of us working in British greyhound racing share for its continued success and popularity.” ■ TOWCESTER stages the quarterfinals of the Premarket Pets Blue Riband tomorrow with English Derby champion Thorn Falcon aiming to get back on the winning trail.

12 Saturday, January 15, 2022 DS1ST StarBets BRITAIN’S NUMBER ONE BETTING GUIDE GOLDEN DAY NICE MARK: Kitty’s Light is well treated Light looks a bright option The Scoop6 has a rolled-over £68,499 in the win fund this afternoon, as our six selected races come from Warwick and Kempton We start with Warwick’s Grade Two Leamington Novices’ Hurdle, and Surrey Quest looks the best of these. He quickened up nicely to win at Doncaster last time and goes for the hat-trick. The Lanzarote is up next from Kempton, and this can go the way of Gelino Bello. He has been chasing the tail of Blazing Khal over staying tests at Cheltenham the last twice, so the return to 2m5f on a flatter track should help. Captain Tommy looks worth a second chance in Warwick’s Classic Chase after he was brought down by a faller when travelling well at Cheltenham on New Year’s Day. Kitty’s Light has some consistent form in the book, but after being pulled up in the Ladbrokes Trophy and beaten into fourth last time, he’s slipped back down to a handy by LUKE PARKINSON mark of 143. That’s the same rating as when he was beaten a head at Chepstow in October, and Jack Tudor’s 3lb claim could make the difference in leg four. Warwick’s Pertemps qualifier is leg five. Riggs carries just 10 stone and goes for the trusty Warwick combo of Harry and Dan Skelton, so he gets the nod. The final leg from Kempton is one for First Street. He was running in Graded company last time out and has since had wind surgery, which could make a difference on this handicap debut. Tips Warwick 2.25 Surrey Quest Kempton 2.40 Gelino Bello Warwick 3.00 Captain Tommy Kempton 3.15 Kitty’s Light Warwick 3.35 Riggs Kempton 3.50 First Street FOR RAHEEM Sterling can net his 50th Prem goal at Etihad ■HOME COMFORTS: Raheem Sterling CHELSEA boss Thomas Tuchel won’t have any fears about taking on the runaway Premier League leaders Manchester City today. The Stamford Bridge men have won three of the last four clashes between the sides and Tuchel will be keen to keep that superiority over Pep Guardiola. Both sides are in superb form – Chelsea arrive at the Etihad with just one defeat in their last 20 domestic games since losing at home to City in September. City have lost just one domestic fixture in the same period, but since their home league defeat to Crystal Palace in October they’ve won 11 league matches in a row. Four draws in five league matches have proved costly for Tuchel’s men as they have dropped 10 points behind City. I’ve a hunch that it could be the same outcome again today, with the 3-1 offered by Betfred for the draw looking generous. City are 7-10 favourites, with Chelsea 4-1 for the away win. Raheem Sterling is on 49 league goals at the Etihad and was in superb scoring form in November and December. I fancy him to become just the second player after Sergio Agüero to hit the 50 mark. He’s 13-8 to score at any time – but it may be a better bet to grab the 2-1 from Sky Bet that he simply has two shots on target. Romelu Lukaku has been back among the goals for by STEVE ANDERSON Chelsea with three in his last five games – and in two of those scoring appearances he was only on the pitch for 45 minutes. The Belgium striker is 14-5 to score at any time but the 8-1 with Sky Bet that he hits the first looks particularly tempting. He’s also a massive 25-1 to bag at least a couple and that could be worth a small stake. City’s 6-3 win over Leicester on Boxing Day shows they are capable of conceding goals at the Etihad, while with just one clean sheet in their last nine league games, Chelsea’s defence must also do better. Tuchel’s men drew 2-2 with Liverpool in their last league outing and that could well be the outcome again today. I’d back the 2-2 draw today at Betfred’s odds of 14-1. I’d also take the 7-2 in Sky Bet’s correct score group betting that the game ends either 1-1, 2-2 or 3-3. Manchester United travel to Aston Villa, who really put them to the test in their FA Cup clash at Old Trafford. Now Villa boss Steven Gerrard has recruited his old Liverpool team-mate Philippe Coutinho and the stage is set for the Brazilian to make a fairytale start in the Midlands. He’s an enhanced 12-1 with Sky Bet to score from outside the area – or take the tempting 5-2 that he provides at least one assist. And back Aston Villa at 5-4 on a ‘draw no bet’ basis. Polish star Iga to please Aussie Open supporters With all the attention on Novak Djokovic, it’s easy to forget there’s a women’s event being played at this year’s Australian Open – and that’s where the real value lies down under. The big draw news is that the top two in the market are in the same quarter, with world No.1 Ash Barty (3-1) set to meet defending champion Naomi Osaka (13-2) in the fourth round. by MARK PEARSON Barty won five titles last year, including Wimbledon, and warmed up for this by claiming the Adelaide International last week. The Aussie has now won an incredible 17 of her last 18 matches against players in the top 20 and will be desperate to become a champ in her home nation. But Osaka has won four of the last seven Grand Slams played on hard courts, including two of the last three here. With those two players proving impossible to split, it’s worth focusing on the bottom half of the draw. British No.1 Emma Raducanu (33-1) has been given a tough draw, despite being seeded for the first PEARSON’S TOP PICK RIGGS Warwick 3.35 time. She takes on former US Open champion Sloane Stephens (both players 10-11 to win the match) and has won only two matches since her own US Open victory, both against players outside the world’s top 100. But one player who has been treated kindly by the draw is former French Open winner Iga Swiatek (right). The Polish youngster reached the second week of all four Grand Slams last year and the highest seed in her path to a semi-final spot is a struggling Aryna Sabalenka. Swiatek may be able to take advantage and looks a big price at 10-1 to win the tournament.

And viewers will see a new side to their favourite celebs – not only when they reveal their backsides after falling over! Here, Holly and Phil tell us about Dancing On Ice’s class of 2022 and whether we’ll ever see either of them wearing skates… Hi, guys! What can viewers expect from this series? Phil: It’s no secret we struggled to get the show on air last year, but we’re back, we are confident and the line-up is amazing. Holly: I can’t wait. We’re looking forward to getting back to the side of the rink and having a bit of glamour. What do you think of the new judging line-up? Phil: Amazing. I adore John [Barrowman] and we’ll miss that larger-than-life personality, but in every panel you want to make sure each area is serviced. So now we’ve got Ashley [Banjo], with his overall understanding of showbiz and the difficulty of moves, Jayne [Torvill] and Chris [Dean], who have ice-skating sewn up, and Oti [Mabuse], who knows exactly what’s required. Holly: Oti is going to be fantastic. I’m a huge fan. I think she’s got a wonderful energy and I think she will bring that to the panel. What advice would you give her? Holly: I honestly don’t think she needs advice. She’s one of those people who, whatever she turns her hand to, she excels at. She’s a brilliant teacher and always gives good guidance. Are there times when you watch through your fingers? Phil: Holly more so than me, but I think at least one of us should be watching. Holly doesn’t like the headbangers [ice-dancing spin lift] – she absolutely hates them. But I’m the sort of person who loves a roller-coaster. Holly: I can’t bear it. I end up watching it back afterwards. I’ve never watched one live. Can you tell us any secrets about the show? Phil: Backstage, as we would get to the end of the show, Holly and I might have a little glass of something. Holly: Last year, because of Covid, we weren’t allowed a wrap party, so I sneaked in two of my kids’ water bottles with their names on. I filled them Phil and Holly are delighted to be back 4 HOT TV

Finally, do you ever fancy hitting the ice? Last year you said no. Is it still a no? Phil: Yes. I did some lessons with Christine [Lampard]. We learnt the routine and it was amazing. I thought I was zipping across the ice, but when I watched it back I was like a tortoise – so slow. If you’re going to do something like that, I don’t want it to be a novelty. I want it to be, “Oh my God, they’re amazing” – and we just don’t have the time to put in. Holly: I’d love a lesson, but not filmed or live on a Sunday night. No way. My fear would take over and I’d go rigid and panic. If I was a contestant, my signature move would be lying flat and low, touching the ground. The end of Boléro – that’s my move. Strictly Come Skating Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean are back on the judges’ desk, along with Ashley Banjo. But what’s superexciting is that this year’s panel includes Strictly Come Dancing’s Oti Mabuse. Here, Oti tells us she’s honoured to be on another dance show, even if she is likely to need a blanket to keep her warm… Hi, Oti! What made you decide to join the panel? Because it is the greatest show on ice! I love dance. I love all things dance. What will you be looking for in the contestants? I’m going to be looking for chemistry. I’m going to be looking for that moment that gives you goose bumps. Do you think you’ll be quite a strict judge? No! I can be strict but, no. I’ll be honest, I’ll be genuine, I’ll be passionate and I’ll be myself. I’ll always look for the good, but I will also critique them and suggest what they can do to improve. Do you kick your heels off when you get behind that desk? Absolutely! And I have a big blanket for by the rink. Are you ready for some scary tricks like the headbanger? Oh yes! That’s what I want. I want all the drama. They have to. That’s what makes an exciting show – the not knowing what’s going to come, the unexpected, it being emotional, out there, subtle or pulling people in. That’s what makes great choreography. And if you bring it every single week, then good on you. Oti has joined the team WOrdS: JENNIFEr rOdGEr HOT TV 5

I saw that online and thought, “Oh my God, we have to try this.” Bradley: It was at Hajduk Split. I love visiting football stadiums so I said, “That’s great.” But when we got there they said, “You can go into the commentary gantry,” which is right at the top. As we were walking up the steps I had an odd feeling that something wasn’t quite right. I don’t like anything like that, because you are out of control. I’m pretty sure you could hear my screams across Croatia. Barney, do you spring these challenges on your dad? Barney: Yes. If we do it that way, Dad’s reactions are so genuine and so… terrified. It just makes Hajduk Split stadium in Croatia it really funny. So we try to keep him in the dark as much as possible. It’s fair to say you found the free dive a struggle, too, didn’t you, Bradley? Bradley: Yeah. We were with this guy who could hold his breath for 10 minutes. I can’t hold my breath for more than 30 seconds, so I found it very claustrophobic. I didn’t like it. I found it scary. Barney and I went on holiday when he was younger and we learnt to scuba dive. It was lovely… the fish and colours. Then we went over this reef and it all went black. I was petrified because I didn’t know what was down there. Some sort of giant squid or an alligator or Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow… You don’t know what’s going on, so I really didn’t want to do it, and I had the same feeling with the free diving. It makes me sound a bit of a wimp, doesn’t it? All the action stuff isn’t the draw for you with this show, Brad, is it? Bradley: Do you know what I love about the show? Meeting the people. You know – what they’re about and how their lives are different from ours and the different cultures. And the history – I love history. We went to Hungary and met a guy who’s got a museum based on escapologist Harry Houdini. We were there on the 106th anniversary of when Harry Houdini did the escape from a rope on fire. Did you try escapology? Bradley: Well, I tried to do the straitjacket trick, but there’s a little twist to that. You’ll have to wait and see. Although it was scary, I really, really enjoyed it. I came out of it thinking, “Wow, I’ve really achieved something there.” Barney: For me, that was the highlight of the trip. 6 HOT TV

ready to mingle As Celebs Go Dating returns, this year’s participants open their hearts a new batch of celebrity romantics are ready to bare their hearts, as matchmakers Paul C Brunson and Anna Williamson open the doors to their agency for Celebs Go Dating. Celebs go dating Mon-Thurs, 9pm, E4 Joined by Tom Read Wilson, they play Cupid to stars including TOWIE’s Chloe Brockett, Made In Chelsea’s Miles Nazaire, Geordie Shore’s Marty McKenna and Married At First Sight’s Nikita Jasmine. They tell us more… miles Why have you joined the agency? I’ve never had anyone have control of my dating, so I’m excited to see what happens when someone else deals with who I date. Is it hard to find a partner when you’re in the public eye? It’s harder to find someone who wants to be with you for you and not because of the fame. Or they don’t understand your lifestyle and get jealous. FeATUres What do you think MIC viewers make of you? I think people think I’m not to be trusted with girls, which is annoying. I’ve been cheated on, so I’d never do it to someone. Do you like women to look natural? You can have work done, but there’s a limit and I don’t find it attractive. Sometimes it’s like everybody has gone to the same surgeon and it doesn’t look nice. Why have you joined the agency? I’ve never really had a proper boyfriend and if I have had one, they’ve not been very good. So I’d love someone who’d be able to treat me nice and then I won’t feel like a third wheel. A lot of my friends are older than me. They’ve got boyfriends and they’ve settled down. Why do you think you’re single? I go for the wrong boys. I end up mothering guys I date instead of being in a relationship with them. I had a fling with Lockie that was just a bit of fun. I don’t just want a bit of fun. cHlOe Are you worried you have a reputation thanks to TOWIE? Oh, 100%. I think a lot of people see me on TOWIE and think I can be intimidating. I can be bitchy. Sometimes I just want someone to give me a cuddle. But often people don’t get close enough because they’re terrified of me. It’s hard for some people to see past TOWIE Chloe and see the real Chloe. Do you think this show might help you reveal a different side? I would love to show a different side to me. It will be hard for me to open up and cry. Why have you joined the agency? When I got cast for Married At First Sight it was a breath of fresh air. Paul was on that show and he’s on this one too. I’m hoping he finds me a better match this time. What have you’ve learned from being on Married At First Sight? To focus on myself. I think a lot of people on that show were in it for themselves. I’m very courteous to others. mArTy Do you think people have the wrong impression of you after MAFS? I do think I was a bit of the villain and you never got to see any of my good parts. There is a proper, raw emotional side – I’m affectionate and loving. We got to see the hothead Nikita. Have you ever had a celebrity slide into your DMs? Yeah, loads – but I’m not naming names. Why did you join the agency? I’m 27 and I’ve never dated! Is it harder to date people when you’re in the public eye? I think you can tell straight away if someone is interested or they just want to be famous because all they talk about is Geordie Shore. We bet you’ve had women throwing themselves at you… Yeah, for one-night stands! The agents nikiTA were saying people are just using me for sex. It made me feel like a bit of a slag! What are you looking for? To go on dates. I have no manners around people. I need to grow up. How do you judge sexual chemistry on a date? It’s in their eyes, their facial expressions, the way they’re sitting, the way they’re talking. I’m looking for an instant connection. HOT TV 7

As Ghislaine, the daughter of disgraced media tycoon Robert Maxwell, awaits sentencing in a New York prison, Ranvir Singh unravels the story. She speaks to survivors and also a member of the jury at Ghislaine’s trial who reveals how they made up their minds to convict Maxwell after 40 hours of deliberation. Ranvir also looks at how Prince Andrew may now face his own possible civil court case brought by Virginia Giuffre. He denies any wrongdoing. Prince Andrew Hay day Expect mud, tractors and mayhem as former Emmerdale star Kelvin Fletcher goes down on the farm – for real Kelvin and wife Liz with Milo and Marnie As Andy Sugden in Emmerdale in 2016 Picking up the Strictly trophy with Oti Mabuse in 2019 Kelvin’s big farming adventure Monday, 8.30pm, BBC One Farming is clearly the new celebrity start-up. Jeremy Clarkson has one in the Cotswolds and now former Emmerdale actor and Strictly champion Kelvin Fletcher has upped sticks to the country with his wife, Liz Marsland, and their young children, Marnie and Milo, in tow. Kelvin found fame playing farmer’s son Andy Sugden in Emmerdale, but being on a fictional farm hasn’t prepared him for the tough reality of agricultural life. Filmed in the Peak District, the series sees Kelvin on his 120-acre, 18th-century farm where he has to grapple with livestock markets, sheep wrangling and the headache of trying to manage a vast estate plus animals that have their own agenda. “A reluctant wife, two crazy kids and a husband with knowledge of farming you could write on the back of a stamp!

FEATURES The couple have been worried about their premature son Jordan As Chelsea tries to flee Gray with their baby, actress Zaraah Abrahams talks about her turmoil CAN CHELSEA PULL OFF THE GRAYT ESCAPE? As a new bride and first-time mum, Chelsea should be on cloud nine. However, after binding Aherself to Gray she’s now learned that he’s more dangerous than she could ever imagine, thanks to pal Whitney’s revelations about his first wife Chantelle’s demise. Now, with the help of Whitney and Chantelle’s last love, Kheerat, Chelsea is plotting to be free of the Walford psycho. But with their premature baby Jordan in hospital, it’s not going to be easy for Chelsea to get a birth certificate for her son without Gray knowing – and then flee. Here, actress Zaraah Abrahams, 34, tells us more about her character’s ordeal… Hi, Zaraah! Does Chelsea truly believe she can sort Jordan’s birth certificate and escape with him? Yes! I think she is clinging to anything that gives her hope. She has run away to another country before, so running away isn’t a big thing for her. Does she feel safer knowing that Kheerat and Whitney have her back? It comes and goes. She feels safer knowing that other people know what Gray’s like and are keeping an eye out for her, but I think she feels that they have ulterior motives too. Sometimes she doesn’t feel like she is their priority in all this. We see Kheerat give Chelsea a chance to get out and get her passport by distracting Gray – but then she’s caught. How does she feel in that moment? She feels like a rabbit caught in headlights. She’s trying to think ahead but she can’t. She has that sunken feeling in her stomach. She Chelsea hopes to outsmart Gray feels like Gray is just too clever and there is nothing she can do. She will just have to surrender and let things happen. She doesn’t know what to do. Do you think Gray suspects that Chelsea knows his true colours? Even though he’s smart, no, I don’t think he does. I think he’s too wrapped up with himself and truly believes Chelsea and the baby are a new start for him. As a new mum to a premature baby, how is living with Gray affecting Chelsea? I think when you have a baby anyway you question everything and think, “How am I going to keep this child alive?” The fact that the baby is premature makes it all even more scary. He’s always putting her on edge and she feels very suffocated. He is always watching her and she thinks she can’t fully concentrate on her baby and getting herself better, because she’s on high alert. HOT TV 9

HOROSCOPES Aquarius Jan 21 – Feb 19 Pisces Feb 20 – Mar 20 RUSSELL GRANT Aries Mar 21 – Apr 20 Taurus Apr 21 – May 21 You’re determined to make some big improvements in your life. While this will be of benefit to you, don’t rush decisions that may need some more thought. A craving for variety will take you away from your usual haunts. There could be a chance to meet people some distance away. Be wary of a friend who enjoys gossip. Be curious. If something interests you, ask questions. You may feel someone isn’t telling you everything, in which case don’t take all they say at face value. You’re tempted to accept all social and travel invitations coming your way. This is a chance to make friends. You’re attracting interesting people into your orbit. 0905 789 3651 0905 789 3652 0905 789 3641 0905 789 3642 Gemini May 22 – June 22 Cancer June 23 – July 23 Leo July 24 – Aug 23 Virgo Aug 24 – Sep 23 An interview or meeting will mean more to you than you care to admit. Do your best to keep family life calm. If things get tense, nerves could get the better of you. Someone close will suggest changing the way you approach routines. You’d rather continue with things the way they are, but give their advice some serious consideration. Developments in the workplace could mean a change of plan. You are being presented with a rare opportunity to prove your capabilities. Don’t let this pass you by. A domestic problem will be costly to put right. Before you start spending, seek advice. A friend who’s been through a similar experience has a cheaper solution. 0905 789 3643 0905 789 3644 0905 789 3645 0905 789 3646 Libra Sep 24 – Oct 23 Scorpio Oct 24 – Nov 22 Sagittarius Nov 23 – Dec 21 Capricorn Dec 22 – Jan 20 An argument between friends will make the atmosphere tense. If no one else makes an effort to settle their differences you might decide to be the diplomat. This isn’t a good time to take risks. In finances, and in your career, it’s best to do things strictly by the book. This may not be exciting, but you will feel you’re making progress. Money you had intended to use for pleasure will now be needed elsewhere. You’ll be made to feel guilty for splashing out. It’s disappointing, but not the end of the world. There’s nothing wrong with prioritising the more enjoyable side of life. Romance, creative interests and relaxing in good company will feel therapeutic. 0905 789 3647 0905 789 3648 0905 789 3649 0905 789 3650 **Calls cost 80p per minute plus your telephone company’s network access charge – maximum of five minutes duration.
