Mauricio Pochettino could be left short of centre-back options next seasonChelsea could be left very short of options at centre-back next season if Mauricio Pochettino decides to get rid of Benoit Badiashile in the summer window. He is unlikely to return to fitness until next month, meaning he will miss the Carabao Cup final showdown with Liverpool on Sunday afternoon. It seems that injuries might have wrecked Badiashile's hopes of making the grade at Chelsea, with TVPlay reporting that Pochettino has 'lost faith' in the defender as a viable first-team option. Pochettino has reportedly grown frustrated with Badiashile's poor form when he has been fit, with the Argentine open to letting him leave. It means that Disasi, Colwill and the injury-prone Wesley Fofana could be Chelsea's only recognised centre-backs next season if Badiashile departs Stamford Bridge.

I joined the Commissioners in 2009 as their first-ever CIO [Chief Investment Officer]. The mandate of the Church Commissioners is very clear, and derives from our obligations as a steward of charitable funds. There is a clear separation between these investments and the investments that the Commissioners’ fund makes. It is important that, when the Commissioners’ fund does well, the Church as a whole can do more. I’m proud of the Church Commissioners’ interrogation of their historic links to transatlantic chattel slavery.

Only the Liberal Democrats have a record of putting economic competence ahead of ideology. We were the first to point out the dangers when Labour deregulated the banks. In the coalition Government, we halved the scale of Conservative austerity plans, introduced the “triple lock” for pensions, and cut taxes for the lowest earners. We are the only party to consistently oppose Brexit and the only party committed to reaching net zero by 2045. Our economy needs more Liberal Democrats in Parliament!
