BB Round-up – Spurs rue transfer snub, Chelsea’s heavy bill, Arsene Wenger defends his youth policy

Sir Alex Ferguson believes that ten more wins will be enough to secure Manchester United a record breaking nineteenth title this season. The Red Devils currently find themselves five points clear at the top of the table and have a golden opportunity to stretch their lead further at Molineux this afternoon; a victory that would arguably bring an end to both Chelsea and Man City’s title aspirations.

In the papers this morning there has been a mixed bag of stories that includes Harry Redknapp ruing the chance to sign Van Bommel; Premier League chief cites £100m transfer, while Carlos Tevez concedes that City have blown the title.
