Hello and welcome to sportsday im hugh ferris. Our headlines tonight. Very average really. Var the biggest talking point, as chelsea and arsenal play out a 0 0 draw in the efl cup semi final first leg. Lancashire batsman liam livingstone is called up to the england test squad for the first time. Hes selected for the tour to new zealand, while bowler mark wood is recalled. And anthonyjoshuas planning a big 2018 of unification fights. His promoter says the first, againstjoseph parker, could be announced this week. Hello again. Theyve now played each other four times this season, but in each meeting between chelsea and arsenal, there still hasnt been a winner in 90 minutes. The latest attempt to separate them came in the first leg of their efl cup semifinal, which didnt provide any goals. But there was at least another opportunity to see the new video assistant referee system in action, as olly foster reports. The last time Arsene Wenger was banished from the dugout at chelsea, he ended up sitting next to his gardener. He had different kind of diggers foucault tonight, the british press. His crime, his outspoken opinion of referees. Martin atkinson was in action tonight with the help of the video assistant. No goals, but a bit of a argy bargy, and an Maitland Niles penalty shout. Nothing given. It was only a week ago these two sides met onlyaueek agoftbesetwgssidesmetl 2 ti the for a 2 to thrill in the league. Andreas christensen had more than one chance. As did alvaro morata. He actually got them into the semifinal. Would that video refs help to break the deadlock . And welbeck get the ball cleanly from fabregas in the box . Conte wanted the tb treatment. The voices in atkinsons had told him he had got it right again. Another chelsea and arsenal draw. At least we know there has to be a winner in the second leg ina has to be a winner in the second leg in a fortnight. England have recalled fast bowler mark wood for their two test series in new zealand that starts in march. He wasnt fit enough to be selected for the ashes squad but has been in australia with the lions. Theres also a first call up for lancashire captain liam livingstone, who replaces gary ballance. Livingstone has been involved in englands limited overs squad before, but not in tests. So heres the squad in full. James vince, who struggled at number three during the ashes, retains his place in the squad but could be competing with livingstone for a spot in the side. Mason crane is also retained after making his debut in the final test in sydney. And whilst ben stokes name is on the list, hell not be considered for selection, pending the conclusion of the legal and disciplinary cases against him for an incident outside a bristol nightclub in september. Anthonyjoshuas world heavyweight unification fight against new zealandsjoseph parker could be announced this week, according to his promoter eddie hearn. The british fighter holds the wba and ibf belts, adn parker the wbo version. Cardiffs principality stadium has been touted as a venue. I say the heavy terms are agreed but there are probably still a dozen points you could easily have an iq and about, if you wanted to. But we do both want to make the fight, so David Higgins has flown from new zealand to london. The others you really wa nt zealand to london. The others you really want to have a fight. And we hope that in the next 72 hours or somewhere around that we can reach an agreement, and hopefully with an announcement next week, but there is still a while to go, but it is the right fight for everybody. While one british fighter is at the top of his game, another is plotting his path back there. Former world light welterweight champion amir khan has linked up withjoshuas promoter eddie hearn to try and recapture his glory days. And hes returning to the ring in liverpool in april. Hes been telling our boxing correspondent Mike Costello about the months spent away from boxing, which left him filled with self doubt. A lots happened. In the last two yea rs, a lots happened. In the last two years, i had a lot of personal problems, with family stuff. I made a lot of silly mistakes, myself, which i will admit. I think it was more frustrating not being in the boxing ring, being out for so long, i had boxing ring, being out for so long, ihada boxing ring, being out for so long, i had a hand injury, which i had to operate on three times. But now it is good to go. So i had a lot going on in my life, i didnt know if i was ever going to fight again. I never knew that. Will i ever fight again, or will never knew that. Will i ever fight again, orwilli never knew that. Will i ever fight again, or will i be at the top again, or will i be at the top again, willi again, or will i be at the top again, will i everfight for a world title again, will my hand ever be better . These were the things going through my mind at the time. And what helped me a lot was when i went onto the show, im a celebrity, the jungle show, i went on there, and it gave me time to think about me. It gave me time to think about me. It gave me time to think about me. It gave me time to think about where i wa nt to gave me time to think about where i want to be in life, what i want to do. I was thinking, boxing want to be in life, what i want to do. Iwas thinking, boxing is want to be in life, what i want to do. I was thinking, boxing is what made me, fighting in britain, and for my british fans, is what made me. The ones that made me who i am. Soi me. The ones that made me who i am. So i made my mind up in thejungle that i want to fight again in britain. I want to get back in the ring again. And i am going to come back out of the jungle and sign up with a promoter in england. I never thought i would walk away, i never wa nted thought i would walk away, i never wanted to walk away with a defeat, and also i never want to walk away without winning another world title. Or with having other big fights. Being 31, like i said, ifeel better 110w being 31, like i said, ifeel better now than i was when i was 28. I know i have a lot left in my tank, i still feel strong, still feel ready. I think it is time to shine out again, and show people where i belong. Most fighters dont win world title fight until they are 30. People forget how young i was forced by heavy age and the experience, that is the best thing i have. Hes more renowned for managing football clubs like chelsea and tottenham but andre villas boas has turned his hand to rallying. Although not without the odd problem so far. He was competing in the dakar rally the desert stage race in south america. He was out of contention for victory. And his race is now over after crashing on the fourth stage. He injured his back and had to be airlifted to hospital. Fortunately he suffered no broken bones. Britains Sam Sunderland is out of the motorbike race. Ending the defence of his title the former scotland and liverpool goalkeeper Tommy Lawrence has died at the age of 77. Lawrence was part of the liverpool side managed by bill shankly in the 19605. He was a big favourite at anfield. Known affectionately as the flying pig. Richard askam looks back at his career. A liverpool player from the age of 17, Tommy Lawrence was one of the cornerstones of bill shanklys brilliant side of the 1960s, and was a big part of some of the clubs most famous moments. This is tommy after the clubs first ever fa cup triumph in 1965. He was a lovely man, a gentleman. A very good footballer. I think he was fearless in the penalty area. He was with the fans all the way. Tommy also won two League Titles at anfield with an acrobatic south that set apart. This was him in the first ever broadcast of match of the day. In the late 19605, of match of the day. In the late 1960s, ray clemence was tommys understudy, before replacing him as the clubs first choice keeper, and remembers his mental with great fondness. Wonderful person to be around and honestly and excellent goalkeeper as well. He was the best i have ever seen in a one versus one situation. I sat in the stand when i came to Liverpool Football Club and learned so much watching him, and how he dealt with those situations. The number of times he saved liverpool when players had broken through past the back four, you couldnt count. Tommy was a star, but humble to the last. As a chance meeting with our very own Stuart Flinders showed when stuart asked him if he remembered a famous merseyside abbey from the 1960s. Im just wondering whether you remember the derby match at 1957, goodison, fa cup fifth round, shown on a big screen fa cup fifth round, shown on a big screen at anfield. Do you remember it . Yes, i played in it, iwas goalkeeper to liverpool that is a stroke of luck, can you rely me of your name . Tommy lawrence full stop it certainly struck a chord, with millions watching on social media around the world, to the greater prize of tommy himself will stopfi was amazing, everything that was going on. I didnt believe it. I had family from all over the world. All pa rt family from all over the world. All part of the injuring a feel of the bighearted footballer who the kop certainly took to their hearts. Tommy lawrence, who has died at the age of 77. Thats all from sportsday. Coming up in a moment, the papers. Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are the poltical commentator Daisy Mcandrew and the telegraphs brexit commissioning editor, asa bennett. Tomorrows front pages, starting with the daily mirror, which leads with problems in the health service. The guardian also goes with the nhs, and a call from hospitals for more funding, as well as an image of Serena Williams with her new baby. The metro reports that disgraced hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein has been attacked in a restaurant. The Financial Times says chancellor Phillip Hammond is in germany trying to drum up enthusiasm for a post brexit trade deal between the eu and the uk. The express claims there is a way to treat diabetes without using drugs. The telegraph reports thatjustine greening, who left herjob as education secretary on monday, blocked a review which might have recommended cutting tuition fees. The sun has news of another notorious rapist who could soon be considered for parole. And the mail says the Prime Minister pledging to crack down on the use of disposable plastic. Yes, we have a little bit more on that, her announcement coming tomorrow on this poor on waste. But we will start with. Tomorrow on this poor on waste. But we will start with. What else . What else . Brexit dont you just love it . I want to start with daisy. Hammond seeks to whip up eu enthusiasm for brexit trade deal. One would sincerely hope the chancellor would be doing that, but what he wants is a specific deal for certain sectors. He does, but also this illustrates or illuminates why these negotiations are so torturous, because of course every country has its own constituency looking over its own constituency looking over its shoulder, wanting it. For insta nce its shoulder, wanting it. For instance he is in germany, talking the germans, and saying youre not being terribly fair to us, as in you wa nt to being terribly fair to us, as in you want to put the brakes on it, you wa nt to want to put the brakes on it, you want to punish ask for your to have less talk of punishment and more talk of cooperation and the germans are thinking of course we want to punish you, you dont want anyone else to take your example and follow you down your part. So it is com pletely you down your part. So it is completely obvious. A lovely quote the ft has here from a german official, who says they were very distressed that we brits wanted a bespoke deal, a kuchar ordeal rather than just bespoke deal, a kuchar ordeal rather thanjust doing bespoke deal, a kuchar ordeal rather than just doing a canada bespoke deal, a kuchar ordeal rather thanjust doing a canada or a norway and which would have been much simplerfor them. They and which would have been much simpler for them. They quote and which would have been much simplerfor them. They quote is and which would have been much simpler for them. They quote is we are pleased they, thats us, finally dropped it and now it is back like a zombie. Sounds like the same old story. But of course we dontjust wa nt to story. But of course we dontjust want to do a canada or a norway, of course we want a bespoke deal, it is a statement of the obvious. We want to be down savile row, not top shop, thatis to be down savile row, not top shop, that is it. And in fine british fashion, not canadian or norwegian. English trade, no question about it they said you have to ask us for permission to address how we want you to dress. I am flaying this metaphor to dress. You have flogged it, it is flogged. We are currently in the trash talk of negotiations, where there is very little detail. The germans have their own quit ready first they say it is the latest episode of the cake and eat it sitcom. At the same point we are on this merry go round where Philip Hammond says it takes two to tango, and also wants Angela Merkel to signal what she is willing to give. The eu are saying can you tell us what you want, and they say tell us what you want, and they say tell us what you want to give first. The deadline of march is the net have to get this all sorted out so they will have to add flesh to these bones very soofi
