    COEFFICIENT FARCE


    Arsenal and United could be handed an astonishing backdoor route into next season’s Champions League ahead of Chelsea – despite standing NINTH in the Prem table.


    Uefa’s video conference with the 55 national associations agreed to push ahead with attempts to restart leagues across Europe by June to play out the season to a finish.


    But if it proves impossible to complete domestic seasons amid the continuing coronavirus crisis, Euro chiefs have been urged to order associations to use Uefa coefficient scores to decide which teams play in respective competitions next term.


    The ludicrous idea would see Arsenal joining Manchester City, Liverpool and Manchester United in England’s “top four”, with Spurs, Chelsea and Leicester in the Europa League – and Sheffield United and Wolves missing out altogether.


    But Spurs would then take City’s place in the Champions League if the reigning Prem champs’ two-year Euro ban is upheld.

    SLICE OF LUCK


    Paul Scholes has admitted that he SLICED the ball when he scored his Manchester United winner against Barcelona in the Champions League.


    The Red Devils legend netted the only goal of the 2008 semi-final tie with the Spanish giants, a stunning strike from 25 yards.


    His effort sealed a 1-0 win over Lionel Messi and co at Old Trafford before United went on to edge Chelsea in a penalty shootout in Moscow to lift the trophy.


    Despite being hailed for his pivotal strike that led to Sir Alex Ferguson’s sides reaching the final, Scholes admitted he miskicked the ball.


    The former England International capitalised on Gianluca Zambrotta’s loose pass by smashing the ball from 25 yards past Victor Valdes.


    But speaking on the Official Manchester United Podcast, Scholes said: “I miskicked it, personally. I sliced it off my foot.”

    RED, WHITE OR BLUE?

    The Brighton defender, 22, has attracted interest from Premier League giants following his impressive loan stint.


    According to The Athletic , both City and United, are now eyeing a move for the youngster, who is under contract with the Seagulls until 2022.


    Liverpool’s talent scout, Andy O’Brien, has tracked White throughout this season and the Gunners have also been keeping tabs on the defender.


    He caught Arsenal’s attention during the FA Cup meeting between the two teams in January at the Emirates.

    EXCLUSIVE


    Diogo Dalot is already fighting for his Manchester United future – just a little more than 18 months after joining, REPORTS DANIEL CUTTS.


    The Portuguese full-back has impressed during his first few seasons at Old Trafford, despite a limited number of appearances.


    The 21-year-old is regarded as one of the best young full-backs in Europe, with ex-boss Jose Mourinho singling him out for praise.


    But Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s incredible debut campaign at United has changed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s future plans.


    And it is understood the Red Devils would be consider letting Dalot now leave, but only if a sizeable offer was to come in.


    Dalot only arrived in Manchester in June 2018 for £19m from Porto, as Mourinho sought a talented youngster at right-back.

    HEALTH & SAFETY


    The World Health Organisation have reportedly called for all football to be suspended until the end of NEXT season – 2021.


    They are prepared to go extreme lengths to ensure that there is not a second wave of coronavirus.


    According to Italian paper La Repubblica, the WHO put forward the idea during a conference call with Uefa.


    It is understood that the organisation would prefer all matches to be axed until at least the end of next season, in 18 months’ time.


    WHO are said to be considering all possible scenarios, but are concerned about causing a second wave of the pandemic.


    The lengthy suspension could plunge a huge number of clubs into financial instability due to the lack of matchday income.
