Former Arsenal defender and Double winner Lee Dixon says the Gunners can now put their Champions League hopes “into a cupboard for a little bit” and “focus on winning the league”.
Mikel Arteta’s side secured safe passage through to the final at the end of May with Tuesday’s win over Atletico Madrid and will now play their final three league games knowing maximum points would secure the title before they travel to Budapest.
“It was special,” Dixon told BBC Radio 5 Live Breakfast.
Ted Turner, the legendary businessman and philanthropist, passed away Wednesday at the age of 87.
His obituary contains layers upon layers, including his status as the founder of cable news, when he formed Cable News Network, now known as CNN. Turner began his career as the head of the advertising agency his father formed, Turner Advertising Company.

Monaco to exercise purchase option on Ansu Fati
AS Monaco are reported to have decided to exercise the buy-out clause included in Ansu Fati’s (23) loan deal, according to Fabrizio Romano.
Loaned out by FC Barcelona last summer, the Spanish winger is therefore set to sign a permanent deal with the French club, which will pay €11 million to secure his services. The Blaugrana will, however, retain a percentage of any future sale of the Bissau-born player.
Having settled on Le Rocher following a mixed spell with Brighton & Hove Albion, Fati has regained his form under Sébastien Pocognoli.
