The excellent run of form for Premier League clubs in Europe continued last night, as both Liverpool and Manchester City secured their places in the next round of the Europa League. There they will be joined by Rangers, as the SPL giants went through on away goals against Sporting Lisbon.
In the newspapers this morning much of the coverage on the back pages concerns Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas, with the Spaniard claiming he is fit to play on Sunday despite being ruled out by Gunners manager Arsene Wenger. Elsewhere Tottenham are looking to strengthen their defence in the summer with right back Gokhan Gonul and Newcastle have tied down Cheik Tiote to a long term deal at St James’ Park.
