He added: "We keep asking players to play tired. Here, we have had people question the training methods - it's nonsense, it's playing tired players. Bruce said he supports the idea of a winter break, but cutting it short "wasn't quite right" and asking players to play 15 games in two months is "ridiculous". Chelsea and Manchester United have had the longest winter breaks with 16 days between their two games, while Southampton only had 10 days between their matches.
Kevin de Bruyne is one of those players. Once he converted the spot-kick against Newcastle the cup tie was only heading in one direction. The same was true against Liverpool. The champions simply couldn't cope with De Bruyne's artistry. I have probably picked De Bruyne in my team of the week more than any other Premier League player. That's because he is the best player in the country. However, my Footballer of the Year goes to a very different player.

Even when they did, he was still better than everyone else. In terms of consistently performing at the very top game after game, year after year, I would say he's the greatest player in City's history. He's won the Premier League under three different managers, Roberto Mancini, Manuel Pellegrini and Pep Guardiola, and they all built their team around him. That's how good he is and, at 34, he is still as influential as ever.
Gareth Bale: How Real Madrid superstar became a Wales legendLa Liga returns: What you need to know as Spanish football resumesBale, 30, has scored three times in his 18 Real games in 2019-20. His last appearance came as a substitute in the 2-1 Champions League defeat to Manchester City on 26 February. Real won 4-0 at Eibar when the two teams met earlier in the season, with Karim Benzema scoring twice.
Draws against Tottenham, Man Utd and Wolves during that stretch could hardly be described as poor results, though the feeling that the Blades might have taken more from those games is testament to how well Sheffield United have adapted to life in the top flight.
Tottenham have not done that. The team that sat 14th in the league in November are manifestly worse than the team that finished second in 2016-17. That summer, Spurs lost a wantaway Kyle Walker and failed to replace him. Serge Aurier does not count. In the 2017-18 season Tottenham finished third – two points ahead of Liverpool – and signed no one.
He led England’s attack at the World Cup in Mexico that summer. It was Lee who was the star of the show on this particular night, ably assisted by Neil Young on the left flank. Young swept home the rebound to put City ahead in the 12th minute, after Lee's shot had been spilled by the Polish side's keeper, Hubert Kostka. Then Lee doubled City's lead from the spot just before half-time, after Young had been taken out by Kostka as he ran in on goal.

RB Leipzig, who drew with Freiburg 1-1, brought in a set of airport stairs so players could get to and from their seats in the stands. Head coaches were allowed to go without a mask so they could shout instructions to their players. Substitutes took off their masks to warm up, and when players were replaced they were handed a mask before reaching the bench. Elbow bumps instead of hugs Some goals were met by social-distancing celebrations.
Good save, but bigger miss. Mount chance! It's another big chance for Chelsea to double their lead, but that man Long keeps Hull in it. Mount goes through and picks out the bottom corner, but Long makes a vital stop from point blank range. Bowen chance! Almost the equalizer as Bowen receives the ball in midfield and drives forward and fires narrowly over the top.
PSV have won their last seven encounters with Zwolle and have kept clean sheets in five of those matches. The hosts also kept a clean sheet in their last home game against Fortuna Sittard while Zwolle have failed to score in two of their last three matches, so you can begin to see why we have backed PSV to win-to-nil on Saturday.
If you weren’t convinced about self-isolating before, surely the prospect of football never happening again is motivation enough. Strap yourself in on the sofa and don’t dare look at anyone for the next 16 months, but instead spend your days dreaming of the ultimate carnival at the end. It’s as if they have cancelled Christmas.
Dukla Praha is in a better form than Vitkovice at this time of the season. Specifically, Dukla Praha won the last 7/10 matches at home, won the last 5/10 matches, won the last 5/8 matches, won the last 3/5 matches at home. And Vitkovice has lost the last 6/6 matches away, the last 6/7 matches, not winning the last 6/10 matches and not winning the last 4/5 matches away. Therefore the ability of coach Pavel Drsek will be quite large and will win against Vitkovice to bring joy to the home audience. Dukla Praha won the last 5/10 matches, not winning the last 3/5 matches. On the home ground, coach Pavel Drsek won the last 7/10 matches, winning the last 3/5 matches.
The outbreak has already had a significant impact on Chinese football and sport more generally. The Chinese Super Cup and the start of the Chinese Super League were both postponed indefinitely, while the hosting of the qualifying tournament for the women's competition at the Olympic Games in Tokyo later this year was shifted to Australia.
In the same interview, he told a story about a time in 2016 when he turned down an offer from former Argentina manager Jorge Sampaoli - then boss of Sevilla - because he didn't want to miss out on a rock festival. Do you want to laugh?" he said. In December 2016, Sampaoli contacted me. Dani, do what you want on and off the field, but I need a striker. I replied: 'Mister, but there is the Cosquin Rock [Argentine music festival].

We’re confident that under 2.5 goals will be produced in Monday’s clash and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-0 in favour of Braga. The hosts head into the match as the slight form favourites in terms of their current unbeaten run but Rio Ave are playing well and should prove a tough nut to crack. However, Braga have a decent home record and their guests have sometimes struggled for goals on the road which could well be their downfall on Monday night.
But the Tigers retaliated soon afterwards when Herbie Kane curled a brilliant, direct free-kick past Dejan Stojanovic, with what was the night's best moment of quality. The remainder of the game was relatively nervy and cagey, until Wilks flicked home from close range in the dying moments, lifting Hull up to 19th in the table. The result saw Stoke drop in to the bottom three, while Boro are just one point above the Potters with six rounds of matches remaining.

I always said I wanted to play abroad but the only thing that would stop me was if I was winning and successful on home shores. I was lucky I found a great club at Manchester United it would’ve been almost impossible for me to leave. While Ferdinand remained in Manchester that summer, his fellow defender Gerard Pique left to return to Barca, who sacked Rijkaard after ending the season empty handed and hired a young and hungry Guardiola to take his place in the dugout.
The player’s United contract – thought to be around £400,000 a week – is beyond Inter’s reach but Old Trafford boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer does not want to keep the former Barcelona forward. I was lost as a player and person - LingardUnited have been paying a sizeable portion of Sanchez’s wages since he moved to Italy last summer and the former Arsenal man’s contract is not due to expire until 2022. Any deal would almost certainly require some kind of pay off from United and a willingness by Sanchez to take a wage cut.
Fluminense plays home against Fortaleza with only one match to go after this round. Fluminense is mathematically saved from relegation. The home form has been good and this was the reason they managed to save the season.
With three of the last five meetings between these teams ending in draws, it is clear that these are two sides who know each other well. As we have already said, the key battle will be between Savanier and Payet. It could go either way but we expect the pair to cancel each other out. Put your money on a stalemate.
In October 2018, the European Court of Human Rights - Mutu's final recourse to appeal - confirmed that the Romanian owed his former club - and, ultimately, their Russian multibillionaire owner Roman Abramovich - £15. We are exercising our legal remedies to recover the amounts owed to us and we will continue to do so," a club spokesman said at the time. Some 20 months on, neither Chelsea nor Mutu are offering any update on their dispute.
this fixture is between two capable teams one a Getafe team who are eyeing a champions league fixture next season and one ajax team who are seeking to redeem themselves from a slow season. These two teams are fully capable of a win but emphasis needs to be placed on the fact that a straight win prediction will be a tricky prediction therefore this has prompted a goals prediction .I am going to go with a cautious prediction that puts much emphasis on a single goal being the main prediction. However both teams are capable of more goals regardless n
The best week since I've been here'Arteta has made a positive impact at Arsenal since taking over from Unai Emery in December. Sunday's win means they remain unbeaten in 2020 and gives them back-to-back league victories for the first time since the opening two matches of the campaign. It also means they have won three games in the past week, having won at Newcastle before beating Olympiakos in the first leg of their Europa league last-32 tie on Thursday.
Deportivo Walter Ferretti's disappointing second half of March was left behind. In the last 3 rounds, this team won 2 victories, and the only defeat took place on the field of championship candidate Diriangen FC (1-2 loss).

Recent form hasn't been great as far as Sunday's hosts are concerned, as they've won just one of their last five, three of which they've lost. Even at home, things haven't gone too well lately. Bologna are without a win in three at Stadio Renato Dall'Arca, two of which they've lost. Overall, their efforts at home have been so-so this season, as total of 11 goals for and 12 against show.

He has improved in a lot of things, I cannot be specific with one, but if you asked me the other way around there is also a lot of room to improve. He can be better. Republic of Ireland manager Stephen Kenny has paid tribute to Jack Charlton for "inspiring the nation" during his time in charge. Charlton, who led the Republic to their first World Cup finals in 1990, and again in 1994, died on Friday aged 85.
Cartagines should get better performance in the first round, but team fail to make goal chance in that one, for 2:0 loss. They are going to Zeledon, where squad had success in the previous seasons, and should be able to seek for win.
Since then, Madrid have signed five Brazilian forwards, looking for another star who can terrify defences across Europe - but it is yet to really work. The first was Robinho. A number of clubs across Europe had chased him after some stunning performances for Santos as a teenager, but it was Madrid who locked down his signature after meeting a buy-out clause in July 2005 and he scored 35 goals in 137 games for the club.
In the first leg the two teams drew with 1-1. Leicester With a good form this season, it is very likely that Brendan Rodgers wants to have a title with their team and they are very close to doing that. Leicester is a very strong team this season and the opportunity to continue for the home team is relatively difficult. Leicester City have lost in the last 2 rounds in the Premier League recently, but they regained their sense of victory with a 4-1 win over West Ham, and then they have another victory in the FA Cup. I choose Leicester

If you want to take something you cannot give such simple goals. The opponent had showed that they want to fight for everything and we didn't seem to be serious enough. We are only a winning team if we defend like they did today, and that was the big difference today. Hasenhuttl added that the players "have a problem" if they think they are already safe from relegation. We can't act like he's the saviour' Jarrod Bowen scored his first goal since signing for £18m for Hull City on January transfer deadline dayThe win was just West Ham's second since David Moyes returned to the club on 30 December for this second spell as manager.

They are two of the greatest teams in Premier League history - if not the two greatest. On Thursday, Liverpool play their first match since clinching the title when they travel to Manchester City, the team they dethroned as the champions of England. City had back-to-back titles before the Reds' triumph, but it was Pep Guardiola's side of 2017-18 that stood out. In that campaign, they became the first team to amass more than 100 points in the Premier League, won the competition by the biggest points total (19), recorded the most wins (32), and scored the most goals (106).
Zesco United has only 1 point out of the first 2 games in the group but at home they have a strong record in the CAF Champions League. The defeat to group leaders Mazembe was only their second home defeat in the CAF Champions League in 30 games.

We’re confident that Porto will win to nil on Thursday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 3-0. The visitors may decide to rotate some of their usual starting eleven given the standard of opposition they face this week but we still expect Porto to run out comfortable 3-0 winners. Casa Pia are struggling in their domestic league and have a dreadful home record this season and we just can’t see any way they can pull off an upset or even score a goal this Thursday.
It is alleged he accepted "undue advantages" in exchange for TV rights. Switzerland's attorney general announced on Thursday that charges had been brought against Valcke, Al-Khelaifi and a third businessman over rights for various World Cup and Confederations Cup tournaments between 2018 and 2030. Valcke is accused of accepting rent-free accommodation in an Italian villa bought by Al-Khelaifi, who is chairman of the BeIN media group.
After 398 minutes and 48 shots, Spurs had finally scored their first goal of 2020. The home side have the joint worst record for clean sheets in the Premier League - level on three with opponents Norwich - so a one-goal lead was always likely to leave Spurs fans nervous. And their worries would prove founded as Norwich equalised with 20 minutes remaining, Pukki's penalty - his 11th goal of the season - looking to have done enough to earn the battling Canaries a hard-fought draw.
AMSTERDAM, March 3 (Reuters) - UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin said on Tuesday the Financial Fair Play (FFP) system is likely to be changed but refused to be drawn on the two-year ban facing Manchester City. City are appealing to the Lausanne-based Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) against the verdict of UEFA's Club Financial Control Body (CFCB) which found they had committed "serious breaches" of the FFP rules.

Ryan Christie fizzed one from distance narrowly wide before a sensational move released Patryk Klimala through on goal. He looked certain to score on his first start but Mitchell raced from his line to produce a magnificent save. The crucial second arrived when Ntcham did well to force a corner. Klimala managed to flick it towards the front post where captain Brown outmuscled his opponent to poke home.
