Phil Egan is back with Thursday’s Football Daily, with Heimir Hallgrímsson naming his Republic of Ireland squad for the upcoming Nations League window. There’s no Seamus Coleman (still without a club) and Nathan Collins misses out through injury, while Liam Kitching earns a first call-up and Joel Bagan and Owen Elding are included.

There’s also the latest from Manchester United after blowing a 2-0 lead to lose 3-2 to Brighton, plus reaction from Michael Carrick and Fabian Hürzeler.

And we round up the Carabao Cup and Europa League stories, including Chelsea’s ownership change and key European previews.
