Didn't like a few of the clues today.
25a Brazilian player not using head and hands - feet finally bringing gold perhaps. Know the answer is ELEMENT. Please explain why! Presume the first letter is for Eusebio.
22a Petals lacking a liquid dropped off (5) Realise it's an anagram petals minus a letter. Have the answer as SLEPT (dropped off) but where's the liquid.
10a Pompous secretary cuts unpaid childminders? Know it's GRANDPARENTS but that's all.
5d Complaint from good person going in peace. ILLNESS Can't see why.

Yes. Thanks. Will have to try and remember that liquid means anagram. Thanks also to anyone else who contributes.
