02/02/2016 Newsround

Let's get your Tuesday morning stories, I'm Ayshah with news

of the surprising item Tim Peake took up to space and loads more

coming up on Newsround.

First to some massive football news.

Thought by many to be the world's best football manager,

Pep Guardiola is coming the Premier League to manage

Manchester City.

Leah's got this.

Three Spanish league titles, two German league titles and two

Champions League trophies and the list goes on.

Pep Guardiola is arguably the most successful manager

in the world right now.

And later this year he'll become the new boss of Premier League

giants Manchester City.

Today the club say he has signed a three-year contract to replace

the current City manager Manuel Pellegrini.

And the club will be getting a winner.

He's only ever lost 19 of his 239 league games in charge of Barcelona

and his current club Bayern Munich.

Top, top coach, one of the best in the world.

A scholar of the game, tactically very astute,

one of the best in the game about that.

But it's not only that you're getting, you're getting a manager

that can potentially recruit the top players in the world.

City supporters will be hoping that the Spaniard can help them

become the best team in the world.

And on Newsround yesterday we got reaction to the big news from 10

year old Man City fan Riley on the sofa with Leah and BBC

Sport's Steve Crossman.

I'm dead speechless, really.

Having the best, well, in my opinion, the best manager

in the world, is...

You're loving it, aren't you?

Yeah, we're definitely going to win next season.

Guardiola, the best.

Easy.

He's done somersaults in space, made scrambled eggs and even taken

a space walk.

But here's something about British astronaut Tim Peake

you might not know.

He's taken a toy doll to the International Space Station.

Here's Jenny.

Tim Peake, blasting off for his big mission to the International Space

Station.

First British citizen to walk in space, today

will be his first spacewalk.

And on board with him?

A little stowaway.

Meet Stargazing Lottie.

She's keeping Tim company on his six month visit.

And the idea for it?

Well, that's thanks to six-year-old Abigail, a huge space fan

from Canada who thought up Stargazing Lottie.

Sometimes I look up and think, maybe I could go up there one day,

or could I somehow see what's up there?

A toy designer from Cambridge who makes Lottie dolls,

took Abigail's idea and stitched the teeny outfit.

It's funny, people sometimes ask me whether, because I sew very tiny

clothes, whether I sew them on a really tiny sewing

machine as well.

It's funny!

This week Tim tweeted that Lottie cannot wait to get out of her box

look at the stars.

It's incredible, I think it's absolutely incredible,

and especially for me, I think it's a great honour,

really, to be part of this design team which has taken a doll

into toy history.

No one has ever done it before.

A suit fit for a star, now up among the stars.

And join us at 4.20pm when we'll be in Liverpool where Tim Peake will be

talking to kids in a special webcast from the International Space

Station.

It's nearly five years since Japan was hit by one of the most

powerful earthquakes ever.

The quake triggered a huge wave out at sea, called a tsunami,

which hit the north-east coast of the country,

causing massive devastation.

Coming up at 8.15am is a special report from Leah, who travelled

to Japan to meet children affected by the tsunami.

One of those children is Hinako.

I was sitting somewhere around here when we felt the quake.

At first I didn't think it would be that big,

but soon I realised it was going to be huge.

We all went under desks to protect ourselves but the desks

were shifting and the windows broken.

We all knew the earthquake was not going to be as small as the ones

we were used to.

So this is the room that Hinako and her friends witnessed

the tsunami wave rising and rising, and it was quite fast,

it was quite high.

It was shocking to see the seats and swings floating in the water,

rising up high enough to cover the whole slide.

I wondered if I was outside at this very moment,

what would happen to me.

Make sure you join us for our special report from Japan.

See you then.
