Summer high. Malan they paid so much in summer signings and that leads to a certain hope. And a certain expectation among fans. It was not as important nor as good as satisfying as people expected. So that led to him being sacked. It is a shame for him, obviously. He could not deliver what the club and the people were expecting. August football is something. September, october, november, december, it tells a different story.

I think they have a squad full of very good players that are not normal to be in his mid table teams. They have a good coach. They improved a lot from last season.

But it is an opportunity for us because it is the next game. It is an opportunity for us if we play well and got a good point. Hopefully we can play well and convert that into three points. With just under one month to go until christmas, tottenham already know that nothing less than a stunning run of results will see their title hopes effectively end over the festive period. Spurs are 13 points behind the leaders after their trip to leicester. And while the form in europe has an impressive, they are losing ground in the premier league. Manchester city improved a lot and the gap is massive. We need to believe, we need to try and win games. If we do not win it is difficult to be a contender. In reality there are few contenders left in the title race. Manchester city, still undefeated, have opened up city, still undefeated, have opened up an 8 point gap at the top.

Travis tygart, the head of the Us Anti Doping Agency has criticised fifa for a lack of desire to get to the bottom of allegations of doping in football, that were contained in the mclaren report. So far fifa has not approached the main whistleblower, Gregory Rodchenkov and wada has offered to help put them in contact. Our sports news correspondent Alex Capstick has this report. With the world cup draw in moscow just four days away it is perhaps not surprising that the issue of football and doping has been raised to the mr mclaren in his devastating report identified 30 footballers. Fifa says it has been in contact with mclaren. The frustrating is that frustration for anti doping campaign means is that they not approached the chief whistleblower, the man who provided the evidence, mr rodchenkov. They are focusing on sports governance and corruption and the topic has been widely discussed here. I have been speaking to the boss of the Us Anti Doping Agency. Here we are months before a world cup and fever has not even talked to the chief whistleblower. We now have new evidence that has emerged about his knowledge of what went on with russian football. It has created a mess of a situation and nobody has gotten mess of a situation and nobody has gotte n to mess of a situation and nobody has gotten to the bottom of it. It has been over three years since they we re been over three years since they were first exposed and many years since the first whistleblower started coming forward with information. The lack of desire and will to get to the bottom of this has continued to have this evidence drip outand has continued to have this evidence drip out and create big problems for major event organisers beat the ioc and the Olympic Games fever in the world cup. What are we expected to do . Fever insists it is carrying out its own investigation which may or may not include a conversation with rodchenkov. It has been said to me would be in their interest to talk to him. Fifa was not the only International Sport federation dragging its feet over this issue. O rla dragging its feet over this issue. Orla was doing was eroding the confidence of people in the anti doping system. All that was doing was eroding the confidence. Five more russian competitors from the 2014 sochi Winter Olympics have been banned for life over anti doping rule violations. They include Dmitrii Trunenkov and aleksei negodailo, both members of the gold medal winning four man bobsleigh team, as well as biathlon relay silver medallists ya na romanova and Olga Vilukhina who also won another silver in the seven and a half kilometre event. The latest bans bring the total number of russian athletes suspended from the games for life to 19 this month, with the ioc annulling results following widespread doping and tampering with samples of russian athletes during the sochi games. Nowadays there are marathons all over the world. From the biggest cities, to remote deserts, theres no shortage of races out there. But few are as tough as the one were about to show you. Running around a glacier in the coldest place on earth has to be one of the hardest challenges out there as holly hamilton reports. For most of us, running a marathon isa for most of us, running a marathon is a big ask. But for some, the distance is only part of the challenge. With temperatures dropping as low as 30, this is an unforgiving place. And out here, you area unforgiving place. And out here, you are a long way from pretty much anything. It may look dutiful but if you forget your thermals you are in big trouble. It is so cold and i am not used to it so i am a little bit afraid of that. Were trying to keep positive in our mind and i think it will go great. I try to enjoy it as much as possible. I know there will be rough patches so i am trying to enjoy those as much as i can as well. Just come back in one piece with all of my arms and legs attached. When you are 1000 kilometres from the south pole, the cold is only part of the problem. Strong headwinds batter the runners, making it one of paris toughest environments on the planet. Completing an a marathon injust over three hours is impressive. This is the sad part. Getting to the finish line. Grad to take another lap . They make it look easy but do not be full. It may be beautiful but this is a race for only the most committed of athletes. If anyone is willing to fund me, i will do that next year.

But from me and the rest of the sport today team, goodbye. Hello there. Monday brought some of us something a little bit milder. That is not a sign of things to come. During tuesday, and indeed the rest of the week, we are back into this feed of northerly winds, all the way from the arctic. Cold air sweeping southwards right across the country. Quite a few showers, as well, and where the showers have been falling through the early part of the morning, there is certainly the risk of some icy stretches across parts of Northern Ireland and into scotland. Take it easy on untreated roads and pavements. Some of the showers across scotland will be wintry. Some rain, some sleet, some hail, and some snow, the snow mostly over high ground at this stage. Showers beginning to push into the east coast of england. But, through north west england, down into the midlands, a cold and frosty start in places, with temperatures ofjust one or two degrees at 8 00am in the morning. Showers continuing to feed across west wales, into devon and cornwall. Most of these showers will be falling as rain. A few showers across dorset, perhaps into hampshire, as well. But for east anglia and the south east, a dry start, yes, but a chilly one three, four or five degrees. A lot of crisp sunshine, then, to come during the day on tuesday, but the showers continue to feed in across eastern areas, drifting that bit further south, perhaps into east anglia, parts of the east midlands, as the day goes on. These showers wintry, particularly over high ground. A few showers out west, as well. Even in the sunshine, feeling cold five to eight degrees. Now, as we go through tuesday night, the showers continue to feed in across eastern areas. These showers wintry, mostly over high ground, but perhaps starting to turn wintry to slightly lower levels at this stage. Temperatures hovering around freezing, or a touch below. There will be frost for some of us on wednesday morning. So this is how the weather pattern looks. High pressure to the west, low pressure to the east. That is what is feeding the northerly winds down across the country. Strong, biting winds on wednesday, particularly towards the east, where there will again be plentiful showers, and late in the day, we may even begin to see some sleet and snow to pretty low levels. Some sunshine, too. Not as many showers at this stage in the west. Three to seven degrees, that is your lot. Thursday a similar day, but if anything, a colder day still. Some snow is possible to fairly low levels in the east. A few showers in the west, as well. Plenty of sunshine in between. But add on the strength of the wind, this is what it will feel like, many places feeling sub zero during thursday. So, for the rest of the week, a cold wind. Yes, some crisp sunshine, but some wintry showers as well. Welcome to bbc news, broadcasting to viewers in north america and around the globe. My names mike embley.
