Don't blame David, it's not fair, says Mourinho - the man who sold Brazil's calamity defender to PSG for £50m
Jose Mourinho thinks it is unfair to single out David Luiz after the former Chelsea defender made a number of mistakes during Brazil's humiliating 7-1 defeat by Germany. In the absence of suspended captain Thiago Silva, Brazil's back four was ripped apart by Germany in the World Cup semi-final in Belo Horizonte.

Transfer window: Club-by-club - the summer Premier League deals
If the World Cup wasn't enough to whet your footballing appetite this summer, we've got another transfer window jam-packed with Premier League sides looking to revamp their squads. Here's your club-by-club guide to all the moves.
Diego Maradona says Germany are 'full of themselves' and that will give Argentina a chance in World Cup final
Diego Maradona claims Germany are ‘full of themselves’ and that could prove their undoing in the World Cup final.
Suarez's bite on Chiellini has cost Liverpool £25m... and Manchester City were prepared to pay £200m to sign Messi
Liverpool lost in the region of £25m in the deal which saw Luis Suarez join Barcelona.
The sale of Suarez was always going to happen this summer as reported in this column FIRST.
But the predicted £100m fee that Liverpool wanted did not materialise.
I am hearing
Everton and Tottenham still want Romelu Lukaku despite his poor World Cup showing.
But the Belgium striker is being pursued by Bundesliga outfit Wolfsburg.
That was because an auction between Barca and Real Madrid did not happen.
Madrid withdrew any interest after Suarez’s bite saga at the World Cup.
But Liverpool feel they have done well at £75 million, even though the Uruguayan’s confirmed buy-out clause was £100m.
Wilfried Zaha is poised to leave Manchester United for Newcastle.
Manchester City wanted to sign Lionel Messi this summer.
City would have gone as far as paying Messi’s buy out clause from Barcelona of £200million.
With the addition of crowd funding with sponsors the deal had been a matter of negotiation for months with City’s hierarchy and several agents.
But Messi recently signed a new contract with Barca worth £16.3million a year.
I bet
City could afford the money given their oil rich Arab owners and other partners.
But the Argentine, who is the central figure of the World Cup final, is satisfied with how he has been looked after by Barca.
Even given the massive amount Messi has been paid he showed a sense of loyalty.
City were willing to outbid Barca, but the impact of FIFA's Financial Fair Play regulations de-railed their bid.

Happy to stay: Messi's new deal at Barcelona is worth over £16m a year

Liverpool and Barcelona agree £63m fee to clear path for Suarez switch
Liverpool and Barcelona were inching towards an agreement for Luis Suarez on Friday night.
Catalan TV stations reported that a fee of £63million was agreed with Suarez handed a five year deal that would make him their fourth highest paid player behind Lionel Messi, Neymar and Andres Iniesta.
Liverpool are continuing to negotiate though and want to establish whether there is a chance of signing Alexis Sanchez.
Arsenal remain favourites for Sanchez but Manchester City and United have expressed interest, as have Juventus.
Suarez could make a swift return to England with Barcelona due for pre-season training at the FA's St George's Park on July 28, although Suarez will not be able to train under the restrictions of his four month ban.
Liverpool, meanwhile, may move on from defensive target Dejan Lovren with Southampton insisting he is not for sale after rejecting their second bid of £15million plus add-ons. The 24-year-old will be fined if he fails to report to pre-season in two weeks' time but Southampton don't wish to sell. Southampton have also rejected Cardiff’s £3m bid £3m for defender Jose Fonte
Arsenal have pipped Liverpool to the signing of HJK Helsinki goalkeeper Hugo Keto, 18, a Finland U19 international, and remain favourites for Barcelona’s Alexis Sanchez. Manchester City and United have expressed interest as have Juventus.
Meanwhile, Malaga want to take Manchester City’s signing Bruno Zuculini on loan as part of the deal for keeper Willy Caballero. Villarreal and Deportivo have also asked to take him on loan.

Yorkshire goes bike crazy with more than 1million people lining the streets for the opening stage of the historic race (even William, Kate and Harry couldn't keep away)
ore than
one million cycling fans are lining the streets of Yorkshire for the
historic opening stage of the Tour de France, which has been officially
started by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry.
For
just the second time in history, the race started in Britain with the
198 riders lining up in the centre of Leeds for the Grand Depart.
The
city was packed with spectators for the opening stage, which sees the
cyclists embark on a 120 mile route through the Yorkshire Dales to the
spa town of Harrogate.
Prince William, Kate and Harry were at the
starting line at Harewood House in Leeds to officially start this year's
Tour de France
The Duchess of Cambridge was given the honour of
cutting the ribbon, which symbolises that the Tour de France is
officially underway
Kate looks delighted as she officially declares
that the 101st Tour de France is underway as she cuts the ceremonial
ribbon, helped by Prince William and Prince Harry
The royals will also be in Harrogate later today
at the end of the first stage to meet the competitors, and the Duchess
is expected to present the winner with the yellow jersey
Kate and Williams shook hands with the lead Tour de France competitors ahead of the race beginning at Harewood House in Leeds
Competitors
were given the royal send off at Harewood House, near Leeds where both
Kate, William and Harry gathered with the Duchess of Cambridge, dressed
in a bottle green coat with grey clutch bag, being given the honour of
cutting the ribbon.
She
is also expected to present the stage winner with the yellow jersey
later this afternoon when the first stage ends at around 4.30pm.
Before
the race began, the cyclists took off their helmets and were greeted
with a rendition of both the French and British national anthems,
performed by the Band of the Corps of the Royal Engineers.
Along with the Duke and Prince Harry, she chatted with the lead riders, including reigning Tour champion Chris Froome.
Loud
cheers also erupted from the crowd as the RAF's Red Arrows performed a
flyover that left a trail of red, white and blue vapour - the national
colours of France and the UK.
The race will see the peloton make its way through scores of towns and villages along the route with crowds cheering them on.
Although
the Tour started in the middle of Leeds, the teams do not compete for
the first eight miles and the race properly began in the grounds of
Harewood House, with the Red Arrows also flying overhead.
The British
contingent among the huge crowds expected on the route will be hoping
that Mark Cavendish is first across the finish line in Harrogate more
than four-and-a-half hours later.
Mr
Cavendish's mother lives in the spa town and the ideal end to the day
for many of those watching will be him sprinting to victory and securing
the yellow jersey.
British
hopes are also lying with last year's Tour de France champion Chris
Froome, who is defending his title, although 2012 winner Sir Bradley Wiggins
will not be competing.
The spa town of Harrogate is already filling up
with spectators, where the first stage will end later this afternoon.
The winner will receive the first yellow jersey of the competition
The usually quiet North Yorkshire dales are
filling up with spectators for the Tour de France. Fans have been
gathering in Buttertubs, pictured, which marks the steepest and most
dangerous section of today's race
Residents in the town of Skipton have decorated their house in anticipation of welcoming the opening stage of the Tour de France
The royal visitors will be at the finish line to welcome the leaders and the peloton.
Residents
in villages along the route have hung bunting in the race's signature
canary yellow in their towns and villages, and have painted phone boxes
to match.
A
large banner in the shape of the yellow jersey has been draped over the
roof of the historic York Minster cathedral, and the famous race
leader's jersey also adorned the statue of the Black Prince in Leeds.
Even
animals are not immune from cycling fever. Farmers have spray-painted
their sheep and alpacas in yellow, green and red polka dots to match the
various winners' jerseys.
Enthusiastic
fans sporting black and white striped tops, berets, strings of garlic
around their necks and bushy moustaches have taken to their bikes in
homage to the French - who invented the race 101 years ago.
The red,
white and blue flags of France and Great Britain have been draped across
the front of shops and pubs as businesses race to embrace the visitors
travelling from across the Channel for the start of the Tour.
Weather forecasters say the riders should be blessed with a mostly sunny day with the prospect of an odd shower.
Up to three million people are expected to watch the Tour's two-day visit to Yorkshire.
Tomorrow the riders arrive in York for a stage taking in some of the most challenging climbs in Britain, ending in Sheffield.
And, on Monday, the Tour moves south to Cambridge and a stage ending on The Mall, in central London.
The Tour de France is now in its 101st first year and the 2,277-mile, 21-stage race ends in Paris on 27 July.
Be an Up-town girl in Kate's Rag & Bone shoulder bag
She’s known for her barely-clothed body with her trademark hourglass curves, but model Kate Upton knows how to bag a fashion-forward daytime look.
The stunning 22-year-old was spotted wearing Rag & Bone’s ever stylish white croc shoulder bag which is both pragmatic and pretty with its foldover strap and slit pockets for optimal organisation. We’re using the small pocket to keep our list of Upton-esque bikinis to buy before our hols.
Available from the Rag & Bone site at £522, you can buy Kate’s white crocodile skin accessory now, unless you’re murmuring ‘see ya later alligator’ to the price tag. In that case, we have some awesome lookalikes on the high street selected just for you.
Asos’ multi compartment quilted shoulder bag looks much more opulent than its £25 label, and Marc by Marc Jacobs shoulder bag feature gold hardware is still an affordable £189.10. We’d style ours with our favourite floral summer dress and espadrille wedges for an evening stroll along the beach.
You can't fail to have a good time in a brightly coloured skater dress like Myleene Klass
Myleene Klass has always seemed rather pristine
to us in a butter wouldn't melt kind of a way so it's seriously
refreshing to see her letting her hair down and partying to the max (she
seems to be guzzling mineral water as opposed to champagne but still!)
So what's brought this on we hear you cry? Maybe it's her dress's fault. You see you can't just blend in with the furniture in a fluro print dress - especially if it's made in a skater shape. This dress wants to spin around and party and its wearer absolutely has to follow suit.
This sort of dress will take you from summer's day to balmy evening with ease - simply add heels. Fashion Finder's favourite is the French Connection Belle Garden Dress - monochrome picked out with slashes of turquoise.

Perfect your summer style in Pippa's black wedges
She’s often spotted hopping around Chelsea members clubs or smiling from ear to ear at a tennis match, but today Pippa gave us another reason to want to be in her shoes.
Pippa looked gorgeous and particularly trendy in her plaid grey trousers and boxy white blouse which she paired with a black Aspinal of London handbag and gorgeous Jaeger wedges. A royally good outfit choice.
Lengthening her slim limbs in the black leather espadrille heels, Pippa looked both stylish and comfortable as she dashed about Chelsea in her soigné attire. Yes, we agree, the perfect shoes for a summer evening.
If these are the shoe for you, then head to LK Bennett's website now to pick up some before it's too late! Otherwise, there are an abundance of similar pairs available online.
Carvela’s Kut wedges are a great replica at £120, whilst Park Lane’s more casual espadrille versions are on sale at £45. Team with a loose-fitting dress and a waist belt with an oversized floppy hat and you’ll soon steal Pippa’s style throne.
