Flop: @placeholder was United's only signing last summer and has come up short at Old Trafford
Manchester United’s final game of the season. It’s often an irrelevance. It’s usually because the title is sewn up, with the fans anticipating one final bow, trophy in tow. This year, obviously, things are a little different. It is an irrelevance in terms of results – a probably unwanted Europa League campaign aside – but for vastly different reasons. Louis van Gaal will be working from a clean slate as United slipped to an unprecedented seventh in the league, lurching from disaster to disaster under David Moyes.

Australia's urgent quest to appoint a new national coach ahead of their European tour took a major step forward today, as Michael Cheika confirmed that he has been offered the job. The New South Wales Waratahs coach – who was previously in charge at Leinster and Stade Francais – guided his side to the Super 15 title this year and he was linked to the Wallabies role even before Ewen McKenzie’s abrupt resignation on Saturday. Now, rumours that Cheika had already been approached have been reinforced by the news that he is on the verge of being appointed. On Sunday, Bill Pulver, the embattled chief executive of the Australian Rugby Union, claimed that he faced a race to find a coach to front the five-match tour which begins against the Barbarians at Twickenham on November 1. However, it appears that he had in fact made his move during the final stages of McKenzie’s turbulent regime. @highlight Michael Cheika said the opportunity to coach Australia is 'pretty humbling' @highlight Former coach Ewen McKenzie resigned Saturday after loss to New Zealand @highlight Cheika set to be in control for Australia's European tour

Hagel has been criticized for being a secretary who implements @placeholder policy rather than being a dynamic member of a tight inner Obama circle offering new ideas and options.
The White House has a big problem on its hands: finding someone to replace Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, who was pushed out of the administration this week. Since Michele Flournoy withdrew her name from consideration on Tuesday, there is a growing sense that many potential candidates may be shying away from the job due to the short time frame they would be in office and concerns over how independently they can function from the National Security Council, according to both current and former senior administration and congressional officials. Flournoy cited family reasons for her decision to withdraw her name, but several administration officials say the decision came as a surprise because she had known she was on the short list of candidates being vetted. Another name now being widely circulated is former Deputy Defense Secretary Ashton Carter—who is widely credited with reforming cumbersome and expensive weapons acquisition procedures and programs, but who had clashed in the past with White House staff as well. @highlight Chuck Hagel resigned this week @highlight Hagel stepped down after meetings made clear Obama didn't want him on the job @highlight White House is having a hard time finding a successor

De Blasio's pledge to reform police practices helped sweep him into office last year. And in recent weeks he's pushed for the right of demonstrators to gather to protest the killings of Michael Brown and Eric Garner, two unarmed African-American men, at the hands of white police officers. But critics -- including those in the police force -- are accusing him of fomenting an anti-police fervor that contributed to the killings of officers Wenjian Liu and Rafael Ramos. @highlight Critics slam Mayor Bill de Blasio for rhetoric, blaming it for inciting violence against police @highlight Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani called the "intense, anti-police hatred" @highlight Two NYPD officer were gunned down this weekend while on patrol in Brooklyn

Close friends of Darren Wilson have called for the star witness in the Michael Brown shooting to be charged for lying about what he saw. Two of the Ferguson police officer’s best friends told MailOnline that Dorian Johnson - who was next to Brown at the time - should be arrested for his statements in numerous TV interviews he made days afterwards. They say that he made up the claim that Brown had his hands up which kickstarted the ‘Hands up, don’t shoot’ protest movement. For his part Johnson told the grand jury that the whole process has left him feeling ‘victimized’. @highlight Dorian Johnson initially said that his friend had put his hands in the air and said to Darren Wilson: 'I don't have a gun, stop shooting.' @highlight Claim sparked protests in Ferguson and catapulted shooting to national attention @highlight But Darren Wilson's version of events was entirely different - and appeared to be believed by grand jury @highlight Close friends of Darren Wilson now want star witness to be charged over 'lying' about officer's actions @highlight Johnson broke silence last night and said he had feared Wilson would kill him too

Grief can play strange tricks on the mind, but a family that lost their son in the Moore tornado in May of this year are convinced they have seen their son since his death.

Their son was amongst seven third-graders who died at Plaza Towers Elementary School when the storm hit, but they are finding comfort in this new picture. Scroll down for video... Is it him?

Government insiders suspect that the @placeholder aggression towards Gibraltar is in part designed to distract attention from its domestic problems, including high unemployment and public anger at allegations of corruption.
Britain has demanded Brussels launch surprise inspections in Gibraltar of Spanish border checks in a fresh escalation of tensions between London and Madrid. Ministers want the European Commission to make unannounced visits to assess the legality of border checks which have been blamed for long queues to enter and leave the Rock. The row has been simmering since last summer when Spain suggested a £43.50 fee could be imposed on anyone wanting to cross the border with the British territory.

FIFA's statement on Wednesday morning read: 'Barcelona is to serve a transfer ban which will see the club prevented from registering any players at both national and international level for two complete and consecutive transfer periods, starting with the next registration period (January 2015) given that the appeal of the club had been granted suspensive effect by the chairman of the @placeholder appeal committee.
By Chris Waugh Barcelona have had their appeal against a two-window transfer ban rejected by FIFA following a hearing on Wednesday. The Spanish giants will be barred from signing players in the next two transfer windows - taking them through until January 2016 - after breaching transfer conditions to do with 'the protection of minors'. But the club have confirmed that they will now take their case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in order to have the ban overturned.

And when questions were asked in the media, an unidentified @placeholder friend said it was he who brought the gun to the restaurant, not Pistorius.
Johannesburg, South Africa (CNN) -- Oscar Pistorius first gained international fame amid a raging debate over whether his prosthetic legs would give him a competitive advantage in the 2012 Summer Olympics. Today, the disabled track star finds himself in the middle of a more serious controversy: whether he intentionally shot and killed his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, or whether he mistook her for an intruder. Pistorius has been charged with premeditated murder and his trial is sure to provoke worldwide news coverage (no date has been set yet).

Children make the arduous trek from @placeholder across Mexico by train or with the help of smugglers called "coyotes," officials said.
(CNN) -- The number of undocumented children crossing the U.S.-Mexico border by themselves has "increased substantially," causing the Department of Homeland Security to declare a "crisis" and open a temporary emergency shelter for the youths, a spokeswoman said Monday. In the past two weeks, more than 1,000 children were apprehended while illegally crossing the border, officials said, straining facilities for Homeland Security and the Department of Health and Human Services. The majority of the minors were apprehended at the border in South Texas, near McAllen. They primarily traveled from Central America, including Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, according to Marsha Catron, a spokeswoman for Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson. @highlight Hundreds apprehended crossing border over past two weeks, officials say @highlight Most traveled from Central America, Homeland Security spokeswoman says @highlight Emergency shelter opened over the weekend at Lackland Air Force Base

HER STORY: @placeholder was 21, unmarried and on her third pregnancy when she, in the court's eyes, became Jane Roe.
(CNN) -- The Supreme Court has the most powerful judges in the United States. But common citizens are often behind pivotal cases that those justices decide -- everyday Americans who, by taking their cases to court, made history. America was reminded of that this week, when the high court ruled in favor of Edith Windsor. She's an 84-year-old New York woman who sued to strike down the Defense of Marriage Act so that the federal government would recognize her marriage to her late partner, Thea Spyer. On a much broader scale, the case was aimed to ensure that legally wed same-sex spouses could get the same benefits as traditional male-female ones. @highlight Edith Windsor is attached to a Supreme Court ruling on same-sex marriage @highlight She's one of many U.S. citizens associated with groundbreaking rulings @highlight They include men like William Marbury and women like "Jane Roe"

Bony's potential arrival at City would have implications on their reduced @placeholder squad
Eight months after falling foul of UEFA's FPP rules, Manchester City are flexing their financial muscles once again with a £30million move for Swansea City striker Wilfried Bony. In footballing terms, it's a no-brainer. Manuel Pellegrini has to fight for trophies on three fronts – Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup – but currently has only one available forward, Stevan Jovetic, with Sergio Aguero and Edin Dzeko injured, and six others including Alvaro Negredo out on loan. But getting the figures to stack up if Bony comes in on £200,000-a-week will be harder. City want success on the pitch of course but at the same time daren't upset the authorities again by spending beyond the means allowed by the governing body. @highlight Manchester City are in talks with Swansea over buying Wilfried Bony @highlight Bony scored more Premier League goals than anyone else in 2014 @highlight The Ivory Coast international will cost City around £30m @highlight Manchester City travel to Everton in the Premier League on Saturday
