Manchester United’s Antonio Valencia has pledged to return stronger than ever after undergoing surgery on a fractured arm. The right-back sustained the injury against Manchester City in the EFL Cup last week and missed Saturday’s goalless draw at home to Burnley in the Premier League. The Sun report the Ecuador international faces six weeks on the sidelines, which would put him out until the visit of Tottenham on December 11. Valencia said: “Now I’m thinking only about recovery. I want to come back soon and help my team. I’ll come back stronger and I’m always optimistic.” Valencia has made 11 appearances in all competitions under Jose…

Mark Carney is reportedly ready to serve his full eight-year term as Bank of England governor despite demands from pro-Brexit campaigners for his resignation. The Canadian is likely to make an announcement on his future this week and is “leaning strongly” towards remaining, according to the Financial Times. However, he will speak to Prime Minister Theresa May and Chancellor Philip Hammond before making a final decision. There has been speculation he would step down. Mr Carney has been criticised by some for his conduct during the EU referendum campaign, during which he warned of the economic dangers of a Leave…

A group of MPs says the government is incorrect to keep claiming it is allocating an extra £10bn to the NHS in England over the next five years. The Health Committee has written to the chancellor to say using the figure gives the “false impression that the NHS is awash with cash”. The group said the figure was closer to £4.5bn and called for more NHS funding in November’s Autumn Statement. But the government insisted the £10bn figure was accurate. The Health Select Committee, chaired by Dr Sarah Wollaston, has been hearing evidence over recent months on the state of…

he FBI has obtained a warrant to start reviewing emails found on a laptop used by top Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin and her husband Anthony Weiner, according to reports from US media. The Wall Street Journal says the number of emails could total 650,000- though not all of them are expected to be relevant to the Clinton investigation. This comes after Friday’s bombshell that the FBI was again reviewing emails related to the Democratic presidential candidate’s private server. In a letter to Congress, the agency’s director, James Comey, said new information had prompted an additional review of the case that ended…

Three extraordinary things happened in about four hours as the Heathrow airport decision came in to land. First, just that: a big strategic, difficult national infrastructure decision that lends itself to being constantly rolled into ever longer grasslands. Despite an instant and public divide in her Cabinet, Theresa May has bitten the bullet and made a big decision that eluded three other prime ministers in 13 years. For the Government it was the right decision to connect to as much of the UK as possible and to communicate to the world that a post-Brexit Britain that is “open for business”. Second,…

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba needs time to readjust to life back in English football, according to his manager, Jose Mourinho. The France international re-joined United from Juventus for a record fee of £89m in August, four years after leaving Old Trafford for Turin. Pogba has been criticised in some quarters for his lacklustre displays for the club so far this season, with many questioning the position he has been used in, but Mourinho has defended the 23-year-old. The United boss thinks the issue is not so much where the versatile Pogba has played, or the tactical set-up he has…

Telecoms operator Vodafone has been fined £4.6m by Ofcom for “serious and sustained breaches of consumer protection rules”. It follows an earlier investigation that found Vodafone had misled pay-as-you-go customers over top-up payments. The regulator also said Vodafone had broken the rules on handling customer complaints. Vodafone offered its “profound apologies” for the failures. The fines stem from two investigations into Vodafone, which has 20 million mobile customers in the UK. One found that 10,452 pay-as-you-go customers lost out when Vodafone failed to credit their accounts after they paid to top-up their mobile phone credit. The affected customers collectively lost…

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has said his rival Hillary Clinton’s foreign policy plan in Syria would trigger World War Three. He also said the US should focus on defeating so-called Islamic State (IS) rather than removing Syria’s president. Mrs Clinton has proposed a no-fly zone over Syria. The top US military chief has said that could spell conflict with Russian jets in the region. The Clinton campaign accused Mr Trump of “playing to Americans’ fears”. Mr Trump also attacked Republicans for not uniting behind his candidacy. “If we had party unity, we couldn’t lose this election to Hillary Clinton,”…
