I don't know.
It's happening some modern mystery, isn't it?
It was Trent in the drawing room.
If I tell you, I'll have to kill you.
Oh, my God.
Because it got leaked?
Is that the issue, Sid?
No, I think what he's done by not admitting it but not denying it is essentially say it's true, which, of course, helps him to reinforce the message that there are some rules here and everyone has to follow them.
I'm a bit with Steve on this.
I thought there was a chance that he might say, look...
I'm not going to talk about the decisions I made, but there are rules that the players know.
I thought he might let it slip just as much as anything else as a message to everyone and as a way of saying I'm on top of this.
But I think he doesn't want to kind of single Trent out.
I think he would rather ignore it, but be reasonably happy that someone in the media has got hold of it because at least it puts it out there that players are being forced to be committed and turn up on time, which are precisely some of the questions, of course, that we've been asking all season in terms of the players' application and commitment to the squad.
La Liga percentage chance, Ed?
Say that again, sorry, Dan, I missed that.
Percentage chance for La Liga, Barca or Real Madrid?
Well, I think you have to look at this and say it will almost certainly be decided by the ClΓ‘sico.
The fact that Barcelona have a four-point lead, I think the balance is tilted slightly in their favour, but I think it's close.
