Playoff semi-finals and finals will be played on March 26 and 31 in 2020 respectively. Wilder welcomes the return of Jose As Sheffield United prepare to face Manchester United this weekend, their boss Chris Wilder has given his thoughts on Jose Mourinho's appointment at Spurs. He said: "The Premier League is 100% a better place for having Mourinho back.
Has the phrase ‘the grass isn’t always greener’ ever been illustrated as well by Tottenham’s current plight? They thought they were moving onto somebody who guarantees trophies at the first time of asking. But they ignored the big problem – he brings baggage. And lots of it. The Warm-Up: Sack Levy, sack Mourinho, sack Lloris, sack everyone Spurs crash out of Champions League after slump at Leipzig The fans must be kicking themselves for helping force out Mauricio Pochettino – a man who delivered them to a Champions League final.
Ferguson thought he had never seen him look so nervous on a football field. Or, presumably, off it. The redeployment of Giggs and Beckham, and Blomqvist’s struggles, meant there were no crosses of any quality. We were plunged,” said Ferguson in Managing My Life, “into the nightmare of chasing the game against opponents who could emphasise their strengths and hide their limitations by applying a policy of unambitious containment.
Businessman Robert Benwell addressed supporters in December about his plans to "bring football back to Bury", with one of the options being to start the club again if it goes into liquidation, but it is unclear what will happen to the club next and in what form. How the club lost their place in the EFLDale bought Bury for £1 from previous owner Stewart Day in December 2018, but the Shakers were already in financial trouble by that point, with players and staff often being paid late.
He emerged at Northampton before a move to Premier League Newcastle, where his four substitute appearances matched the number of spells he spent out on loan. Costing just over £500,000 in the summer of 2018, he already has 35 Posh goals to his name, leading the chairman to insist a League One record fee - eclipsing the £11m paid by Everton for Ademola Lookman in 2017 - would be needed to prise him away.

Club Brugge still have a chance to progress into the Europa League but are likely to do so even if losing this game. Real Madrid have improved as the season has progressed but are still nowhere near the quality of the side that won the Champions League. They should be good enough to get a win here though.
Sheffield United start 2020 just two points off fifth place in the Premier League table before a first visit to leaders Liverpool for 13 years on Thursday. If I had to name a manager of the year midway through the season then it would be Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder," BBC football expert Mark Lawrenson said. The great thing about them is they have shown every promoted team that they do not have to spend fortunes if you're well coached, well organised and difficult to beat.
We are also backing another exciting clash for the pair, with Cagliari seeing at least five goals scored in each of their last three at home. Following three victories in that spell and after the visitors’ dire record in the Coppa, we are going with a 3-2 victory for the home side as our correct score prediction.
He played 214 times for the Gunners, scoring 46 times, and winning two Premier League titles including their unbeaten 2003-04 campaign. He is yet to manage a senior team, but has been manager of Arsenal's Under-15s and Under-23s - either side of a six-month spell as Wolfsburg assistant boss. He had been assistant to Emery since the summer - and steps up to take caretaker charge. The stats behind Emery's downfallMikel ArtetaCurrent job: Manchester City assistant coachPrevious teams managed: NoneMajor trophies won: None The 37-year-old Spaniard was considered a certainty to get the Arsenal job when Arsene Wenger left in 2018 until their sudden appointment of Unai Emery.
Lecce are struggling in their bid to avoid an immediate return to Serie B. They have conceded 11 goals in their last two league games, making it 56 conceded for the league season. AC Milan made a poor start to the season but have picked up well in recent months. Qualifying for the Europa League isn't out of the question and they can boost their hopes with an away win here.
Guingamp today meets Caen where I think Cain is too big underdogs, the form indicates that they have a good chance of taking a win since they have not lost since September and in their last six league matches have three wins and three crosses, they meet a Guingamp who are good at the table because they started the season well but now they have lost three of their last five and crossed one so they are in bad shape, they meet an equally good team really as Caen is not worse but they are bad at the table because they started the season poorly but they are on the rise now
David Luiz is the first player to be sent off against Chelsea in the Premier League, having previously played for the Blues in the competition, since Vinnie Jones in Dec 1995. Luiz has given away more penalties than any other player in the PL this season (3). Chelsea have lost more Premier League points from winning positions against Arsenal than they have vs any other side in the competition.
He spent the early stages of this encounter tormenting Serge Aurier, flashing a shot wide and laying on a glorious chance from which Douglas Luiz should have converted. Now 24, Grealish is maturing into a player capable of controlling games, and is exhibiting the sort of form that may bring him into England manager Gareth Southgate's planning for Euro 2020. Spurs, Son and Alli keep plugging awayWhile Grealish is yet to make a senior England appearance, Spurs midfielder Dele Alli is someone Southgate knows all about - although his last cap came in June 2019.
Neto reduced the arrears on the hour with a heavily deflected effort which sailed over Ben Foster and Wolves piled the pressure after Kabasele was shown a straight red card following a VAR review. The centre back was originally booked for hauling down Diogo Jota just outside the penalty area but Watford held on in the closing stages to celebrate their third league win coupled with one draw under Pearson.

Liverpool's standards have been so high this season that any slip from the pinnacle will raise eyebrows - so a third loss in four games is bound to provoke questions. Watford's 3-0 defeat of Jurgen Klopp's Premier League champions-elect was a seismic shock, given the Hornets were in the relegation zone and Liverpool had reeled off 18 straight league wins in an unbeaten season. Indeed, they were on an unbeaten 44-match league sequence stretching back to 3 January 2019, when they lost at Manchester City.

This fixture features No. 5 vs No. 15 in the league, Swansea City vs Millwall. The hosts coming from a 2 - 2 away draw with Sheffield Wednesday (no. 8 in the league) and their last home game a 1 - 0 win over Cardiff City. The visitors coming from a 2 - 1 home win over Charlton Athletic (No. 11 in the league) and their last away game a 2 - 1 loss to Reading. The hosts should win this one as they played a higher table team than the visitors and scored multiple goals and conceded multiple goals to draw the match then won their last home game to a team above the visitors without conceding facing a team coming from playing a team above themselves but below the visitors and winning then losing their last away game to a team below the hosts conceding multiple goals so a win to the hosts
There are jobs available though: Manchester United has been discussed as a potential avenue if Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's reign goes south, Real Madrid have tried to sign him before and Bayern Munich are managerless. Pochettino will have no shortage of optionsGetty Images 13. We've heard lots from the fans on social media today but it's time to hear from their official representatives, the Tottenham Hotspur Supporters' Trust.
We were in a position where we were going into the Yugoslavia game knowing a win would take us through. It was a sterling showing and remains the last time Brazil were denied victory by Scotland. I watched the highlights recently and what impressed me was how balanced the team was," said Hay. They didn't have Pele, but you are still playing against that magic yellow jersey. In the first 10 minutes we were under the cosh a wee bit, but from then on we were slightly the better team.
Read the full story Barcelona consider their options Spanish champions Barcelona are considering their options over which striker they might sign in emergency circumstances, according to the Daily Mail. Luis Suarez and Ousmane Dembele are both out for months, meaning that they might bring in 32-year-old Angel Rodriguez from Getafe, Willian Jose (28) of Real Sociedad, 31-year-old former Arsenal player Lucas Perez - now at Alaves - or Loren Moron (26) of Real Betis.
Twitter or in the stands. When said nonsense gets spouted please somehow show said nonsense-spouter the below tweet: This sort of behaviour cuts careers short. Think that is hyperbole? Well, it happened to Michael Owen, you know, the Ballon d'Or winner who ended up a not-so impact sub at Stoke, and it also happened to Wayne Rooney, who, lest it be forgotten, was once seen as an actual peer of Cristiano Ronaldo, and is now having his wages paid by a bookmaker.
Interim handsome manager Freddie Ljungberg wasn’t getting carried away afterwards. Of course you always hope,” he said when asked if this win could spark something in this Arsenal team. But I try not to get carried away because I still feel there are things we need to work on. We’re not near where I want us to be.
I don't believe that home team will lost this duel in Belarusian Premier league and I will try here option on asian handicap on home team, in this case, +0,5. So, Minsk is played poor last match in league, when they are lost that duel 0-2, but at home, this team is much more dangerous and that is the fact. BATE, on the other side, is so far have just 1-0-2 in first three rounds, with two defeats as a guest. Few days ago, they are lost and in the Cup against Slaviya 0-1, also as a guests, so +0,5 on Minsk is ok.
Sunderland will host Blackpool for this fixture of the league. Hosts probably are favorites in this game. Sunderland have advantage at home stadium. Yeah, Sunderland is really better team at home. I expect, the hosts will try to dominate from the start match. However, this will not be an easy job. I expect, the visitors will try to provide a strong resistance. Also, we have Blackpool who's is more ambitious team in this campaign. Blackpool are in solid shape. They are undefeated in their last 5 matches. In any case, the visitors will try to make a positive result. My pick - Blackpool to win.
Today, in the Bundesliga will be played the match Werder Bremen vs Wolfsburg . At the moment, in the Bundesliga ranking, the Werder Bremen after the lose in the match with Eintracht Frankfurt is number 17 with 25 points, and his opponent Wolfsburg is number 7 with 42 points. Wolfsburg play good in away games, they has scored in the last games, and with the Werder Bremen, with problems in defense, I think that there will be over 2, 5 goals, and probably Wolfsburg will win here. Werder Bremen play bad home, but this match is important, and they will play in attack.
Nigel Pearson's side created the better chances with Gerard Deulofeu and Troy Deeney going close. But the Hornets were dealt a huge blow when Delofeu appeared to twist his right knee after being outmuscled by Virgil van Dijk and was stretchered off. But the home side continued to dominate after the break and got their rewards when they took advantage of some poor defending with Abdoulaye Doucoure finding Sarr who scored from close range.

What I like about Team Haaland is they have always taken the development of the player first. He is at the club he should be, where he can develop. Do I think he will play in England one day? Of course he will. He was born in England, but at this time Dortmund is the best place for him to be. Analysis: 'Players can flourish in Germany'BBC Sport's Simon StoneManchester United made Erling Haaland one of their major transfer targets.
Chelsea started better than us. They scored from a short corner and that disappoints me. We were not focused. The second goal is a bad goal to concede. The penalty is a penalty, good decision by VAR. The Son situation was handled badly. The ref has to book Rudiger and the reaction from Son is not an aggression. Does Rudiger have broken ribs going to the hospital? Other people call it intelligent by Rudiger.

Defending Indian Super League champions Bengaluru have made an unbeaten start to the season on the back of conceding only one goal in five matches and will be looking to move to the top of the table with a victory against bottom club Hyderabad, who have endured a poor start to the season with four defeats from five matches and a deflating last-gasp loss in their last outing. Bengaluru are a well organized team who are unlikely to slip up in this match and they are predicted to earn a narrow victory whilst keeping another clean sheet. An away win here.

On, and he popped up with an assist for Jack Marriott to consummate a successful return to these shores for England’s all-time record goalscorer. Not a bad start for a player whose arrival at the club, funded by sponsors 32Red, would not unfairly have been seen as a marketing stunt. The Warm-Up is excited to see how this one ends up.

Posted at 48' Foul by Thorgan Hazard (Borussia Dortmund). Aberdeen move up to third in the Scottish Premiership as Sam Cosgrove's 19th goal of the season was enough to send Hamilton Academical to the bottom. Derek McInnes' side had all the chances in a goalless first half but had to wait until the 53rd minute before Cosgrove fired in off a post.
Telstar and Eindhoven will face each other in the upcoming match in the Eerste Divisie in Holland. Telstar this season have the following results: 8W, 5D and 7L. Meanwhile Eindhoven have 6W, 4D and 10L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Injury meant the wing-back struggled to recapture his top-flight debut season form at the start of this campaign, but he is starting to threaten serious points again. He has started Wolves' last three games - his longest run in the side in 2019-20 - and while he hasn't scored or assisted in that time he has had seven shots and created three chances. His 20 touches in the opposition box is the highest of any defender in the league since 1 October and his expected goals of 0.
If there is at least option on over 3,5 I will take that, but because that option in this bet is not real, I will take just over 2,5. So, Saburtalo is team who is like rival, team who is playing very efficient for a long time and this team is played in last three matches 1-3, 6-1 and 3-1, so this results are showing how this team is playing all the time. Sioni is lost in last round against Lokomotiva 1-2, so over 2,5 in this match is for me more than ok and very very real. I will try that.
Already trailing Real Madrid to a Cristiano Ronaldo effort, Leonardo Bonucci switched the ball from right to left, where Alex Sandro volleyed into the box. Without the ball touching the ground, Gonzalo Higuain took a touch and played it to Mario Mandzukic. With his back to goal, the Croat chested it down and arced a stunning overhead kick over Keylor Navas. Gareth Bale - Real Madrid v Liverpool (2018)Now, this one may just go down as one of the greatest goals of all time.
The hosts were able to see off Barnsley last time out, while they are aiming for more in this meeting with Wigan. The Latics have already been beaten by Stoke once this season, with the Potters edging an EFL Cup tie at the DW Stadium earlier this season. However, the stakes are higher here.
Without being as explosive as they have been at Stadio Olimpico, le Aquile have been useful on the road, winning four, drawing two and losing just one of their seven matches away from the comforts of home. They've won each of their last three on their travels but have conceded in each of those and are now without a clean sheet in each of their last six travelling matches, which doesn't exactly bode well ahead of a match against a free-scoring Cagliari side.

Ultimately based on our experience and our perception, this seems to be less about justice and more about politics. Soriano added the club was hoping for an "early resolution" through a "thorough process and a fair process". He added: "My best hope is that this will be finished before the beginning of the summer and until then for us, it is business as usual. Guardiola and players 'focused on football'City manager Pep Guardiola has told friends he intends to stay at the club despite the European ban, with his contract set to expire in 2021.
St. Pauli is stronger than Nurnberg and being able to come back with a home match will probably show us that even more. It doesn't make any sense to see previous results at St Paul's at this time as the last time it happened was two seasons ago. But we can have an idea looking at the 1st round of the league, where at Nurnberg's the result was 1 x 1. Nurnberg is really struggling to keep their head out of the water, and stands only 2 points above the red line. This is a safe value bet at 1,45
You can be sure that they've prepared their players to do so on the field too, with Ancelotti mindful that his team will have to "play a perfect game" to have any chance of a first derby win in 22 attempts. Therein lies the problem. A first match back after such a long layoff will be quite a long way off being perfect - and a derby without fans even further. LAWRO'S PREDICTIONI am expecting Liverpool to be the team trying to set the pace but it is optimistic to expect the kind of performance that has put them so far clear at the top of the table.
Mourinho's style is set in stone and, it should be stressed, has been successful - but it is the opposite to Pochettino. Solid, organised, get the job done fare. Spurs fans may accept that in these reduced circumstances - but for how long?Still the 'Special One' or a fading force?An 'extraordinary' sacking - but the right decision?Will Spurs players accept hardline Mourinho?Mourinho is also the polar opposite of Pochettino when it comes to man-management.
