It's Saturday morning so it's Kickabout time and we

:00:34.:00:38.

really are at full capacity today, so let's just get straight on with

:00:39.:00:41.

There are only three days before the transfer window closes

:00:42.:00:44.

and we will update you with all the biggest stories so far.

:00:45.:00:47.

Pop sensation Amelia Lily takes on Sav's Big Mouth.

:00:48.:00:59.

We join the Watford team to try a revolutionary new training tool,

:01:00.:01:02.

Plus, with England having qualified for next year's

:01:03.:01:04.

goalkeeper Rachel Brown-Finnis joins me in the studio.

:01:05.:01:07.

This last seven days has been a busy week of football.

:01:08.:01:09.

In the huge Premier League match last weekend, defending champions

:01:10.:01:11.

overpowered Liverpool to keep up their 100% record and share

:01:12.:01:15.

the top spot with Tottenham, Chelsea, and Swansea, who have

:01:16.:01:29.

absolutely surprised everyone in their early season form.

:01:30.:01:31.

In midweek attention turned to the Champions League.

:01:32.:01:33.

Arsenal fans, me included, were on the edge

:01:34.:01:35.

of our seats watching the match as the Gunners held onto a 1-0 win and

:01:36.:01:39.

to qualify for the lucrative group stages for the 17th year in a row.

:01:40.:01:42.

However, there was not such good news for Scottish champions Celtic.

:01:43.:01:45.

A defeat at home means the Hoops crash out of the competition.

:01:46.:01:48.

This Wednesday, England played their first match since the World Cup, and

:01:49.:01:51.

For his club team, Man United, it has been a terrible week

:01:52.:01:59.

on the pitch, but they've had a ?59.7 million boost off it.

:02:00.:02:04.

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal is searching

:02:05.:02:08.

Van Gaal said he needs a miracle to win the league.

:02:09.:02:12.

Tonight, Manchester United are at MK Dons.

:02:13.:02:15.

Louis van Gaal has got big, big problems!

:02:16.:02:24.

Manchester United's record signing Angel di Maria says he has come to

:02:25.:02:27.

the club to win trophies and take Manchester United back to

:02:28.:02:30.

It is fair to say it is all happening at Old Trafford

:02:31.:02:37.

during this transfer window, and here to tell us the full story

:02:38.:02:40.

is a busy man at this time of year, he has just dashed in from the BBC

:02:41.:02:44.

We have got to start with Angel di Maria.

:02:45.:02:49.

Do you think he is the missing piece of the United jigsaw?

:02:50.:02:52.

It's the biggest signing of the summer so far, the biggest ever

:02:53.:02:55.

transfer into British football, and he's undoubtedly a fantastic player.

:02:56.:03:02.

Man of the match in the Champions League final for Real Madrid

:03:03.:03:05.

but certainly not the answer to Manchester United's problems on his

:03:06.:03:08.

Many people think this is like dressing the shop window

:03:09.:03:17.

before you have stacked the shelves, and they will be looking

:03:18.:03:20.

for some more signings before the transfer window closes.

:03:21.:03:22.

I can tell you love this time of year.

:03:23.:03:24.

It is like waking up on Christmas morning because you will find out

:03:25.:03:29.

which teams will get what, what you are not going to get, and to be

:03:30.:03:33.

involved in that is a fantastic experience, making calls here, text

:03:34.:03:36.

messages there, picking up on bits of information, and when it

:03:37.:03:42.

comes to the crunch on deadline day hopefully you can report

:03:43.:03:44.

the deals first and fastest and let the fans know what is happening.

:03:45.:03:48.

How do you separate the fact and fiction?

:03:49.:03:51.

Some of the rumours diverge from the sublime to the ridiculous.

:03:52.:03:56.

Some happen, some are never going to happen.

:03:57.:03:58.

People see a player in a post office, supermarket, at an airport,

:03:59.:04:02.

and you have got to be careful because at the BBC we have got to

:04:03.:04:06.

If you have spoken to the people involved you can separate

:04:07.:04:12.

There is a lot going on, and that is exactly why we will present you

:04:13.:04:18.

Hopefully using it we can bring exclusives to all of you out there.

:04:19.:04:26.

Next week's show we will see what you get up to.

:04:27.:04:32.

Next up, I know you lot like cool gadgets.

:04:33.:04:40.

Championship team Watford have a new training device which is cool.

:04:41.:04:43.

With the Championship season only just underway, the race for the

:04:44.:04:51.

Premier League is already hotting up but here at Watford they have

:04:52.:04:54.

It might look like it has dropped out of space but it is actually

:04:55.:05:03.

Ben here is the sports scientist at Watford.

:05:04.:05:11.

This is all a bit sci-fi, bit futuristic.

:05:12.:05:13.

Essentially it is very cold, that's the basis of it.

:05:14.:05:19.

There are two chambers, one is -60 degrees and they go

:05:20.:05:30.

into a -140 chamber, essentially like putting an ice pack on.

:05:31.:05:33.

After a gruelling match last night it is time to refresh

:05:34.:05:36.

Come to the glass for a photograph, please.

:05:37.:05:39.

One minute, stay in there for another minute, please.

:05:40.:05:49.

I am with Keith Andrews, Watford midfielder.

:05:50.:06:01.

What do you prefer, this or the magic sponge,

:06:02.:06:03.

Magic sponge and a section of orange, that was the thing

:06:04.:06:08.

It was ice baths, this is the next thing.

:06:09.:06:17.

What happens to your body when you are in there?

:06:18.:06:19.

Has anyone tried to duck out of the activity?

:06:20.:06:25.

A few boys, I think they needed to be pushed in a little bit.

:06:26.:06:28.

It is not nice but we do it a couple of times,

:06:29.:06:31.

I have got to go in there in a minute and when they told me I was

:06:32.:06:46.

What was the reaction of the players?

:06:47.:06:50.

I think a few of them were not too keen on it.

:06:51.:06:53.

Got to get in there and give it a go myself.

:06:54.:06:58.

Right, I am kitted out and ready to go.

:06:59.:07:00.

-60. When you go into the main chamber,-140.

:07:01.:07:09.

-60. When you go into the main chamber, -140.

:07:10.:07:11.

The Watford players are going to have to do that again on Sunday

:07:12.:07:51.

Fair play, rather you than me. On two women's football and it has been

:07:52.:08:08.

a brilliant month for the England team. Wales could qualify for the

:08:09.:08:16.

next year's World Cup, and here is how. All the way through, all the

:08:17.:08:24.

way in! Suspicion of a handball, play on. What a finish. Into the far

:08:25.:08:31.

post and England have a third. It is four. Brilliant ball in, clinical

:08:32.:08:36.

finish. England on the way to the World Cup finals. They definitely

:08:37.:08:43.

qualified in style. Joining me now is England and Everton goalkeeper

:08:44.:08:47.

Rachel Brown-Finnis. Welcome. England just qualified for the World

:08:48.:08:52.

Cup in 2015 in Canada. How are you feeling? With a game to spare, we

:08:53.:08:57.

did it in style. We have kept at it through every game, we have looked

:08:58.:09:04.

to be with and Liz Truss -- and ruthless in every game. What is it

:09:05.:09:09.

actually like to play in a World Cup? It is the dream scenario for

:09:10.:09:14.

any aspiring footballer to pay for your country on the biggest stage,

:09:15.:09:20.

the World Cup is pure football and it is fantastic to be that again.

:09:21.:09:23.

Wales also could still qualify through the play-offs. Do you think

:09:24.:09:27.

they will? Wales are stronger, I feel, than they have ever been. And

:09:28.:09:31.

a lot of their personnel, some of them play in America, some of them

:09:32.:09:37.

play here in England. Fingers crossed they qualify. I have got to

:09:38.:09:41.

ask, you have got an array of injuries. Can you tell me some of

:09:42.:09:45.

them, they are unbelievable. I will start from the top! I have been

:09:46.:09:50.

knocked out, had my head cut open, my teeth knocked out, hurt my

:09:51.:09:54.

shoulder, knee surgery, dislocated fingers, torn ligaments. That is

:09:55.:09:58.

just a few. But it is half of the fun of being a goalkeeper. But you

:09:59.:10:02.

are still at the top of your game and looking to go to the World Cup.

:10:03.:10:08.

It is small bright and pet to the challenge we are going to give you

:10:09.:10:12.

today -- it is small fry compared to the challenge we will give you.

:10:13.:10:18.

Let's do it. Here we are in the stat caved. You

:10:19.:10:26.

could be walking away with the key of freedom. I think I have got a

:10:27.:10:35.

50/50 chance. In case you have not seen it, is simple game. Stat based

:10:36.:10:40.

questions to which the advocate only be higher or lower. Join in at home,

:10:41.:10:45.

if you don't know the answer, just guess! Question one, you made your

:10:46.:10:51.

England debut at 16, which was incredibly young. Keep that in mind

:10:52.:10:58.

when we look at this man here, he made his debut for Norway this week.

:10:59.:11:01.

The question is, what his debut age higher or lower than 16 years old. I

:11:02.:11:18.

would say no one. -- Lola. In fact, a slight receding hairline, I will

:11:19.:11:24.

go with higher than 16. You possibly should have stuck with your original

:11:25.:11:30.

answer, it is lower. 15 years, 253 days. He might be playing against

:11:31.:11:37.

England on Wednesday. It is all about pride now. Question two, fair

:11:38.:11:41.

to say Everton have got two great goalkeepers in the women's team in

:11:42.:11:48.

yourself, and in the men's team in Tim Howard. You have got 82 caps for

:11:49.:11:53.

England, the question is how many times have that man played

:11:54.:11:57.

internationally for USA? Is it higher or lower than 82? This is a

:11:58.:12:06.

tough one. Brad Friedel played before that. I will go with lower. I

:12:07.:12:19.

thought exactly the same as you. The answer, unbelievably, is higher.

:12:20.:12:26.

No! They must play so many friendlies, it is 102. He got his

:12:27.:12:34.

century. Well done, Tim. The final question, Angel Di Maria signed to

:12:35.:12:38.

Manchester United for almost ?60 million. But life was not always

:12:39.:12:43.

like that for him, as a young player he once changed teams in exchange

:12:44.:12:49.

for a number of footballs. The question is with the number of

:12:50.:12:59.

footballs higher or lower than 60? Higher. I thought the answer would

:13:00.:13:08.

be 60 million footballs, but it is lower, 35 footballs. Zero out of

:13:09.:13:13.

three. Is it possibly the most disappointing result of your career

:13:14.:13:17.

so far? It is on a par with getting knocked out of the World Cup. In a

:13:18.:13:22.

year's time, hopefully you can put that right. Good luck in Canada!

:13:23.:13:28.

It is time for Sav's Big Mouth now and this week's contender is Amelia

:13:29.:13:37.

Lily. # I am in London city.

:13:38.:13:45.

# What have I done to deserve this? #.

:13:46.:13:54.

I am Amelia Lily and I support Newcastle United. Two facts about

:13:55.:13:57.

me, I bumped into Luis Suarez in an airport and asked for a picture and

:13:58.:14:02.

also I sponsor my dad's local football team and he has got my name

:14:03.:14:08.

across all of the football shirts. Two meters, 20 seconds, try to beat

:14:09.:14:14.

my school. -- my school. That was rubbish. Yes!

:14:15.:14:27.

Yes! I got two, I think will stick to my singing.

:14:28.:14:38.

Amelia Lily, you get two points. Don't be so hard on yourself, that

:14:39.:14:42.

is only one less than a Premier League footballer and, as things

:14:43.:14:47.

stand, you are in silver medal position. Before we go, let's take a

:14:48.:14:53.

look at this weekend's fixtures. The only hope to heap more mystery

:14:54.:14:57.

of Manchester United at lunch time and there is a big match at Goodison

:14:58.:14:59.

Park where Everton host Chelsea. Tomorrow, Tottenham Hotspur will be

:15:00.:15:05.

hoping to maintain their 100% record when they play Liverpool and on

:15:06.:15:09.

Wednesday the Pope is shipped to England, who played Norway in their

:15:10.:15:14.

first match since their World Cup disappointment. There will be

:15:15.:15:18.

familiar faces and some new ones as well. See you next week.

:15:19.:15:27.

A challenge by Chambers. Danny Rose! His first goal of the season.
