"Thursday nights, Channel 5!" was a chant designed by Manchester United fans when Liverpool failed to get a top four spot in 2010, but expect it to be heard more often the next few months.

Manchester United are top of group C in the Champions League, after goals from Antonio Valencia and Wayne Rooney secured a 2-0 win at Old Trafford.

Former England international Terry Butcher believes Wayne Rooney should expect to face a lengthy ban after being sent off in England's 2-2 draw with Montenegro.

While England secured their place in Euro 2012 with the draw, the game was marred by Rooney's petulant kick at Miodrag Dzudovic which earned him an automatic one match ban that rules him out of the start of England's tournament next year, while UEFA may decide to extend the ban at a hearing on Thursday to anything up to three games.
