Crystal Palace’s hopes of returning to the Europa League are all but over after losing their appeal at the Court of Arbitration for Sport – with Nottingham Forest taking their place. We break down the full story, the reaction from fans and pundits, and why John Textor’s failure to amend his multi-club ownership proved so costly. Elsewhere, Aleksandar Isak looks set to stay at Newcastle after Liverpool cooled their interest, and we round up the latest transfer news – including Jack Grealish’s move to Everton, Manchester United’s pursuit of Carlos Baleba, and Spurs’ interest in Savinho. Plus - we tell the remarkable story of Mjällby, the tiny Swedish club from a village of just 800 people who now sit four points clear at the top of the Allsvenskan. Could this be the greatest underdog title bid in Europe this season? We also look ahead to Tuesday’s key fixtures, including Rangers in Champions League qualifying and 30(!) League Cup ties in England.
