Can we forgive and forget when it comes to our favourite sports stars? That's the question we're all asking as Trent Alexander-Arnold leaves Liverpool, world number one, Jannik Sinner, returns to tennis after a 3-month doping ban, and Zhao Xintong wins the Snooker World Championship after a 20-month suspension for being party to match fixing.

Mark and Kelly Cates are joined by Sinner's lawyer, Jamie Singer. How has the ban affected Sinner off the court? What's it like having just 24 hours to prove your innocence? And has Sinner got special treatment by not missing any Grand Slams or losing his rankings ?

Jeremy Wilson, Chief Sports Reporter for The Telegraph, explains why Xintong was given the ban, how he came back so strong and what his victory means for global snooker.

Plus, London City Lionesses' last-minute promotion, Fantasy Football to elect a new Pope, and have you seen the life-size LEGO F1 cars?
