Since I arrived, the team showed fantastic spirit," he added. I thought it was an unselfish team, they worked hard for each other on the pitch. Sometimes we didn't play well, but we never lost our fighting spirit, so this reason I was surprised and I told the players it is not acceptable. I understand that a big part of the DNA of the club is everyone wants to see the players fighting. The players have been here for more time than me so they know what the fans expect from them.
Unbeaten in the league until mid-October, they would eventually finish third after faltering in the spring, and reached the last four of the League Cup as well as those two May finals. But, at one stage, their Uefa Cup run looked in danger of lasting just one round. We got an absolute chasing by Lens in France," says Malpas. They were lightning and technically brilliant, but could only score once. A 2-0 win at Tannadice overturned that defeat and was followed by a 3-0 win over Universitatea Craiova, before an eye-opening trip to communist Romania, which was still three years away from revolting.
Dalglish, 69, tested positive for the coronavirus last week after being admitted to hospital for an infection. He required intravenous antibiotics but was asymptomatic and returned home over the weekend. It was a real shock three days ago when I heard about it first. The boys were sent a message in our WhatsApp group and everybody was like, 'wow'," Klopp told Liverpool's website https://www.
Hopefully he's going to stay this season and the next for as long as possible at this club. That would be my dream. In fact Guardiola, who knows that most managers cannot choose when and where to move, told Arteta that if an offer of this stature arrived, he would kick him out of the club himself. When it did, Arteta could not refuse - and he kept Guardiola informed of Arsenal's interest as he had done when other clubs approached him.
Not only is recent form on their side, but Watford can look back on some very pleasant clashes with Bournemouth. They have never lost to them away from home in the Premier League, and The Cherries have collected fewer points than any other top flight side since their win over Manchester United at the start of November.
Meanwhile, Mainz have currently got by far the Bundesliga's worst defensive record away from home. They have conceded 22 goals in seven away games, at least seven more than any other team. We predict that a 2-1 win for Augsburg is a likely result of this game.
TIMO WERNER (23, striker, RB Leipzig)Value: £60. Linked with: Real Madrid, Manchester United, Chelsea, LiverpoolWith champions Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund floundering, RB Leipzig have taken charge of the Bundesliga title race. Striker Werner has played a big role in that run, his 18 goals coming at a rate of one every 79 minutes, and the Germany international could leave if the right offer came in.
This was another one of those victories. On the whole, Getafe were probably the better of the two teams, but the visitors took their chances and claimed a win to take them to the top of La Liga. There are signs, despite the blip before the winter break, that Real Madrid are building momentum and are becoming a quintessential Zidane team again.

Four of those games were away from home though and that’s not their strong point with seven away league defeats this season. That’s compared with a home record that is yet to see them taste defeat. Seven games have been won and six drawn. Their most recent home league match was a 2-2 draw with Atletico Madrid ending a run of three straight home league clean sheets.
Royal pari have recently had 1 win and 2 draw. They have scored 8 goals and conceded 12 goal in the last 5 league matches. At home they managed to win one and lose 4 of their last 5 league games scoring 1 goal and conceding 7.
But even more important is he adds a physical element to Barca's midfield. He competes for a lot of balls. He's very important off the ball because he runs constantly, like Xavi did in the past. People often didn't realise that Xavi always covered more ground than anyone else, and now De Jong is bringing that quality back into the team, which is what they desperately needed. Dynamic Valverde's breakthrough season Athleticism, versatility and quality on the ball.

It begins a hectic week for the Gunners, who then travel to Standard Liege with Europa League progress still in the balance before hosting Manchester City at the weekend. Elsewhere, there is a full round of European fixtures in midweek, while there will undoubtedly be more fall-out from City's loss to Man United in the Manchester derby on Saturday, not least given the abhorrent allegations of racial abuse suffered by Fred.
Manchester City fans held up banners during their 2-0 Premier League win over West HamThey feel they were victimised when they were prevented from attending a game at CSKA Moscow - despite many supporters already booking flights and hotel rooms - due to the poor behaviour of the Russian club's fans, only to find home hundreds of home supporters managed to get in anyway. This came a few months after City were fined £49m for breaching Financial Fair Play regulations.
Jablonec will against Zlin in match Czech Liga. My prediction this match could be the teams have both score due to Jablonec on last 3 match in club friendlies they can make score in 2 match.

Therefore, I'm sure that both teams will make score on this match.

He has since reiterated his desire to continue working at Leicester.

Brisbane Roar was defeated in last round at away against Melbourne City, but they are still two points above their next opponent, Western Sydney Wanderers. Visitors are in good form, with two victories in a row, in last round they won a city derby against table leaders, Sydney FC, but in last few minutes of the match, their defender D. Georgievski got the red card and he will not be in the squad for this duel. Cox and Duke will be in attack for Wanderers, on the other side in the attack for the host will be McDonald and Inman, by my opinion, both sides has strong defense, and most realistic result would be a draw.
The away team has let in at least two goals in eight of their last nine previous games and only one goal in their last game while scoring five in return. This proves they are generous at the back and also have an attack that can also deliver goals if a defense is caught off guard. Putting in mind that the away team can score even while giving away goals makes this fixture to be one interesting one hoping for a lot of goals especially since the home team is considered favorites. I would not be surprised if we see even four goals.
WHO IS INTERESTED? The 32-year-old wants a new challenge, so a player of his pedigree could be available at the relative knockdown price of £25 million. Inter Milan were said to be monitoring his situation last summer but signed Christian Eriksen in January. However, Juventus could emerge as an option according to reports, while Atletico Madrid have already made contact but could face competition from his former club Sevilla, long-time admirers PSG or even Chelsea.
It’s likely that this will be another narrow game. Al Masry head into this clash having seen exactly one goal scored in 50% of their matches this term. All of the visitors four defeats this term have come by a single goal, having lost 1-0 in four of their last six matches. They’ve lost plenty of games already, which is a concern with El Geish coming off a home win.
Jalapa will against Chinandega in match Nicaragua Premier Division. My prediction this match could be the win for Jalapa with margin score is 2 goals. Jalapa have good result on last 3 match in league due to Jalapa have won in 2 match and 1 match is lose. Meanwhile, Chinandega have not good result on last 3 match in league due to Chinandega only have won in 1 match and 2 match is lose. Therefore, my prediction that Jalapa can beat Chinandega on this match due to Jalapa have yet lose on last 6 match in the home. Surely Jalapa have more chance to win on this match.
The current Sigma Olomouc home team is only ranked. 10 rankings with 33 points. After 26 matches they brought home only. 1 win 2 draws and 2 losses. Although standing in a safe position on the chart but. Sigma Olomouc should not be content with what they are. The fact that their location is not really safe when. Their distance from position 12 is only 5 points. This season there are still 3 matches ending and Sigma. Olomouc needs to keep trying.
He was 17 at the time and has been a feature of the squad ever since, becoming captain a decade ago. A tall and strong central defender, Lima is proud to have played so many international matches, even if more than 100 of them have ended in defeat. He has only tasted victory five times with Andorra, which has a population of just 77,000, making those moments all the sweeter. Lima identifies a 1-0 win over Hungary in a qualifier for the last World Cup as the highlight of his career, and perhaps the best result in Andorra's history, but he has savoured plenty of unforgettable experiences along the way.

Monday. Therefore our men's first team, women and academy players are all remaining at home. The club also confirmed they would continue paying matchday and non-matchday casual workers until April 30 despite the suspension. Manchester United announced last week that they would keep paying their casual staff even if the season's remaining games were cancelled or played in empty stadiums.
Lose that and the Tynecastle side will head into the Boxing Day derby with Hibernian adrift at the foot of the table at the halfway point of the campaign and under serious threat of relegation.

Reaction & as it happenedWho was your man of the match?Hearts 'look like they could go down'Celtic up title pressure as Hearts show signs of lifeAfter a season and more of insipid performances, these are grim times for Hearts on and off the field, a reality that hit Stendel square between the eyes on Saturday when he lost his first match in charge against St Johnstone.
England manager Gareth Southgate believes his team will be seen as a threat to win Euro 2020 next summer. After a surprise run to the World Cup semi-finals in Russia last year, England are joint bookmakers favourites along with France to win the tournament. The Three Lions will play all three group games at Wembley, which will also host the semi-finals and final. We've gained some respect and people would view us as a threat, which certainly wasn't the case ahead of Russia," Southgate told BBC Sport.
Another game with a big favorite and that is the guests from Gladbach who are having an incredible season fighting with the German giants for a top 4 place, while Werder is only 2nd from bottom and while it is true they did win away at Freiburg last round at home they have lost more than 60% of the games played and sometimes quite big as well while Gladbach even won 3-1 after the break away at Eintracht Frankfurt game in which they even had the lead 2-0 after 10 minutes and did lead with 3-0 and really did not waste too much energy in trying to score more.
Their spirited start to the second half, when they briefly thought they were level, proved manager Howe is still able to get a response from his team, but they have now collected only one point from eight matches. Tottenham Hotspur and Leicester City visit the Vitality Stadium next week and, with a trip to second-placed Manchester City to follow, it is going to need a massive reversal in form for Bournemouth to preserve their top-flight status.
We are taking the difficult way," said Mourinho, who won the Cup with Chelsea in 2007. We don't need one more game but that is how it is. It is better to draw than defeat and be out. The new manager bounce which David Moyes provided West Ham is wearing off fast and, after just one point from their past three Premier League games, the Hammers crashed out of the cup in a game that again saw home fans boo their own team.
The tactical adaptations to continuous different roles and requests and appear to have robbed Pogba of the explosiveness that got him away from his man, that intelligence that allowed him to read play better than most and that incredible shot, for when he was in a tight situation. These are all skills he still possesses, it's that wide range of abilities that has made him able to perform so many different roles but he can no longer bring them all together, in a specialised role.

Smith said "a reaction was needed" prior to kick-off in Burnley and his players responded, creating goalscoring opportunities in both halves and deserving the three points. The Villa boss mixed things up at Turf Moor, starting with a back three and playing Grealish in a more central role going forward and it paid off. Grealish was at the heart of everything positive for Villa, playing three key passes and being involved in both goals.
Dele looked more of a threat once Mourinho changed the shape of his side at the break but he lacks the physical presence to unsettle Burnley's defensive pair Mee and James Tarkowski. Mee in particular was a commanding presence once Tottenham sorted themselves out after the break and ensured goalkeeper Nick Pope was not truly tested. The result leaves Tottenham four points behind Chelsea, having played a game more.
We’re confident that both teams will score in Saturday’s clash and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-1. Neither side can claim to be’in form’ at this moment in time and all of the stats and the history between the two clubs suggest that a score draw is the most likely outcome this weekend.
Derby are heading into this one on the back of a strong run, with four straight home wins. They have won the last three of those to nil, building momentum ahead of this clash. That's part of a strong overall defensive record for the Rams, who have conceded just six times in their eight home matches this term.
Dinamo Brest have only scored three goals in their last five matches. The last six Shakhytor games have had under 2.5 goals scored in them. The last two Dinamo Brest games in this competition have both ended goalless. Dinamo Brest won the Belarus Cup in 2017 and 2018. The first of those wins saw them beat Shakhtyor in the final and now they renew rivalries in the 2020 semi-final first leg.
It happens. Unfortunate for Villa but, in some ways, unfortunate for Spurs as it gives credence to Mourinho's increasingly tired and dated brand of football. His no risk approach that basically entails capitalising on the incompetence of their opponents has a ceiling and that ceiling is the Europa League.
It's only a thought. Dyche has been keeping in contact with his players and staff from home and says all players are having their training monitored via GPS. When it first opened, we told the players to have some downtime, 10 or 12 days, where they do next to nothing structured," he said. After that period, we started upscaling them remotely and have now added in a GPS unit. So now we are telling them they should be delivering at a good level and a good intensity.
We’re confident that both teams will score in Sunday’s clash and we have predicted a final scoreline of 3-1 in favour of the visitors. PSV have a great head to head record against VVV and have outplayed Sunday’s hosts in all departments so far this season. The visitors have been hot and cold at home in the Eredivisie and we are expecting another disappointing result for the relegation battlers this weekend.
