In its report, Cas said Uefa maintained the club "on countless occasions refused to answer questions, refused to provide documents, refused to arrange for the attendance of requested persons and - ultimately - it even instructed its own expert witness not to answer specific questions". However, Cas said it only found two specific requests in which City failed to comply with its duty of co-operation.
We can't wait on the evidence one way or the other on heading," he said. We need to take some sensible, pragmatic steps at the moment and that's largely going to be about trying to reduce that overall burden, the overall times that young players head the ball -- and heading in training is much more common than in matches.
With all 20 Premier League clubs playing twice in the space of the past four days, it is was another hectic - and entertaining - Christmas period. Liverpool thrashed second-placed Leicester and then edged past Wolves to move 13 points clear at the top of the table. Meanwhile, Manchester United and Everton - the latter under the guidance of new boss Carlo Ancelotti - also earned back-to-back wins, while Southampton and Watford picked up four-point hauls to help their battles against relegation.
In terms of our correct score tip, we think that the improvements made by Bolton since the turbulent opening to the season should be enough to see them through in this one. Although they average just 0.78 goals per home league game so far, that has been improving and their last four home games has seen them score 1.5 goals per game. This, combined with the fact that the visitors concede so frequently, suggests to us that backing a 2-1 home win is the way to go.
It is anticipated further discussions will take place over the issues, although it could be another two or three weeks before any greater clarity is achieved. However, the EFL, which declined to comment when approached by BBC Sport, is in a tricky position. It has so far aligned itself closely with the Premier League, which is committed to ending the season if it is practical. The letter makes no mention of how complex issues such as promotion and relegation would be decided.
Arsenal remain in the hunt for silverware to brighten their underwhelming season after Dani Ceballos' 91st-minute winner took them through to the FA Cup semi-finals at Sheffield United's expense. The on-loan midfielder slotted home a low, angled drive to win the tie in dramatic fashion, after David McGoldrick's hooked finish just a few minutes earlier looked to have ensured extra time at Bramall Lane.
Group G remains wide open heading into game week five but bottom of the table Porto really need a win on Thursday to keep their hopes of qualifying for the knockout stage alive. All of the stats suggest that a double chance bet on the hosts is the best way to go this Thursday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-0 in favour of Young Boys.
The Watford hierarchy have said their "efforts surrounding the team were not good enough" following the Hornets' relegation from the Premier League on the final day of the season. Watford's five-year top-flight stay ended after a 3-2 loss at Arsenal and Aston Villa's draw against West Ham. In a chaotic campaign, the club had four different managers. In a joint statement, owner Gino Pozzo and chief executive Scott Duxbury expressed "great disappointment".
None of the Kirolbet Baskonia (the club's basketball side) squad have tested positive. There have also been five club employees who have been affected.

Berlin Derby is knocking between Table Tennis Borussia against Hertha Zehlendorf. This match will be explosive because the winner has the better chance to gain promotion to Regional league. The host has 28 points from 12 matches, scoring 39 goals against 10, winning in all 9 matches, 2 draws and 1 game lost. Both teams are hot and the form speaks for both teams, although the form of the visitors speaks louder than the host which will make the game more exciting because no one have home advantage here because the stadium will be 50-50 full for both teams. I go for goals here.
Roda and Excelsior will face each other in the upcoming match in the Eerste Divisie in Holland. Roda this season have the following results: 4W, 7D and 5L. Meanwhile Excelsior have 7W, 4D and 5L.

Chabab Rif Hoceima will host Tihad Casablanca for this fixture of the league. Both sides are not very good teams in this campaign. Both teams are currently bottom of the table. I think, the visitors have a real chance to make a positive result in this game. I believe, Tihad Casablanca are in better shape than their opponent. I expect, the visitors will try to get the victory on the opposite stadium. Also, we have Hoceima who's is one of the worst teams in the league. Hosts are vulnerable in the last matches. They have three consecutive losses. My pick - TAS Casablanca to win.
Leicester City goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel has condemned the "very harsh" criticism of Manchester United counterpart David de Gea since the Premier League's resumption. De Gea has come under scrutiny after errors contributed to United dropping league points and losing in the FA Cup. But Schmeichel, whose side play United on Sunday with both chasing a top-four spot, has defended the Spaniard. Goalkeepers are going to get scrutinised," Schmeichel said.
Chelsea defender Reece James has signed a new long-term contract that keeps him at the club until the summer of 2025. James, 20, has made 18 appearances for the Blues after scoring on his debut in a 7-1 victory over Grimsby in the Carabao Cup third round in September. It has been my dream to be here at Chelsea and play week in week out," said James. To have a contract for another five-and-a-half years is living the dream again.

Willian now joins this outstandingly consistent group of players. The Brazilian was at the heart of yet another successful performance by Chelsea, this time against Crystal Palace. Frank Lampard needs to think long and hard before letting Willian leave Stamford Bridge. I don't thing Ross Barkley, Mason Mount or Ruben Loftus-Cheek are ready to replace him so he'd better have someone in mind who can.
This is a big test for Arteta, though. There is a reason why Burnley have established themselves in the Premier League, and it is because their blueprint works.

They’ve picked up just one win in their last eight games and haven’t been able to win consecutive games at all this season. They’ve scored a decent amount, 1.17 goals per game on average, but have really struggling in defence, conceding 43 goals which translates to just under 2 goals a game.

I would have taken the over 3 goals option in this one to be a bit more safe but I have to choose between odds at 1.65 for the over 2.5 goals and odds of 2.62 on the over 3.5 goals and I will choose the bigger odds as I believe there are really good chances that this over bet can be covered all alone by the hosts who won last round with no less than 4-1 away from home at Lyngby in a game where most expected them to fail as they do not have the best of seasons but with Midtjylland losing last round they have come closer to the league leaders.

Their lead of 16 points after 22 games is the joint-highest by any Premier League team at this stage of the season, matching the achievement of Chelsea in 2005-06, with Jose Mourinho's side going on to claim the title by eight points.

Elsewhere, holders Manchester City were the last team to book their place in the FA Cup semi-finals with victory over Newcastle. Goalkeeper - David de Gea (Man Utd) De Gea: The Spain international has had his goalkeeping credentials brought into question recently. Well, when you're as good as David de Gea you're expected not to make any mistakes. Against Brighton, the Manchester United keeper didn't put a foot wrong and in fact made two saves that would have demoralised the Seagulls.
With Mallorca failing to score in all but one of their away matches and conceding at just over two goals per game, we feel a 2-0 scoreline is the most likely outcome in this Matchday 14 encounter – a result which would see the hosts at least temporarily jump into the top half of the table.
