African footballers have graced the English Premier League for over twenty years now but with many currently on international duty at the Africa Cup of Nations, how are their clubs managing without them?  For example, title-chasing Chelsea could only draw 0-0 at Norwich on Saturday while two of their players on duty at the Cup of Nations, Solomon Kalou and Didier Drogba, combined to score the only goal for the Ivory Coast in their win over Sudan.  Our Chief Football correspondent Stuart Weir looks at the evidence from last weekend’s Premier League fixtures.

And with London hosting the 2012 Olympic Games in less than 200 days we look back to the first time the Games came to London over a hundred years ago.
