United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hailed his leadership qualities and called him 'almost undroppable' afterwards, and I can see why. After United's win over Tottenham, Solskjaer spoke about McTominay and said "he wants to be the best player he can be. That is the kind of player I want at this club. He would have suited my squad when I played. He would have fitted right in"McTominay has been so reliable for him, in what has become a problem area in his team, and United will need his discipline and organisation in the middle if they are to keep City quiet.
It was Villa who saw the last Premier League action in a 4-0 loss at Leicester City on 9 March before the top flight was closed down after Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta tested positive for coronavirus. We have become accustomed to glimpses of the new reality in the Bundesliga and La Liga, complete with socially-distanced goal celebrations but still with the same passions on the pitch and among supporters watching from afar.
LONDON, Dec 20 (Reuters) - FA Women's Super League champions Arsenal may have a title defence to worry about as well as a Champions League quarter-final clash in the New Year, but captain Kim Little is looking beyond both to a potential place in the Team GB Olympic squad. The Scotland midfielder, who was selected in the women's team that reached the quarter-finals of the 2012 London Games, was a key part of Arsenal's first title win in seven years last season, notching eight goals and six assists.
This season will be used to find a team for next season, but hopefully we can speed this process up by getting more results," the 46-year-old added. We want to be a team that can go and dominate and break teams down. It has taken Liverpool a few years to get to that state and we need to keep on building because that's what we want to get to.
All the other teams who are just below them in the Premier League are looking inconsistent and it would be a good time for the Blues to kick on.

S. The 3. October 8 with Ibrahimovic present, was scorched with flares while racist messages had been sprayed on the ground nearby, local media reported. Several people are said to have vandalised the statue and sprayed it with paint," police spokesman Jimmy Morin told state broadcaster SVC, adding that an investigation into the vandalism had been opened.
Newcastle conceded a total of just four goals in their six Premier League home fixtures this term, and with the Magpies certain to field five at the back and a defence minded midfield against City, we're backing them to keep the score to respectable levels
We were supposed to be starting new pitch work on the 4 May, which would have taken 12 weeks to complete ahead of the new season,” he continued. So if we have a season that potentially starts (again) in May and then starts again in August, we’ll have to get a new pitch in. There are also players that are out of contract in June of this year and also, for most clubs at our level, the season ticket income normally comes in in May and June.
The striker has made an almighty impact since arriving at the RCDE Stadium in January, scoring in each of his first five outings for Espanyol before today, but de Tomas was everywhere in the first half, not just forcing the opening goal, but conducting his side’s play through midfield too. If Espanyol are to avoid relegation it will be through the efforts of their main man.
There is nothing new to say about any deals or players. When we have more info, we'll let you know. The players we want to bring in have to be players who are going to help us and make a difference in the squad. It's not for the sake of just bringing in players. Arsenal, 10th, have won only one Premier League game in six since Arteta took charge while four draws have seen the north London side fall further away from the top four but the Spaniard is positive his squad is slowly imbibing his philosophy.
All of our players have been reminded to respect social distancing when exercising outdoors," a Tottenham statement said. We shall continue to reinforce this message. This is the latest incident of Premier League footballers flouting social distancing guidelines put in place because of the coronavirus pandemic, with Kyle Walker rebuked by Manchester City after media reports that he hosted two sex workers at his home and Jack Grealish allegedly involved in a traffic incident during the lockdown.
I’ve never wasted a second worrying about our performance in the first 88 minutes,” said Neville in Red, his autobiography. The United players all felt the same, and will happily point any naysayers in the direction of the final score: Expected Goals 0-3 Actual Trophies. Ferguson saw things differently.
Football's future is uncertainOne thing that seems certain is that this has changed the whole landscape of football, in terms of salaries and future transfer fees. I hope that does not mean we will see some clubs going to the wall. The advance from the Premier League will, I hope, help the lower leagues survive this unprecedented period - but at the moment no-one knows when we will get back to playing again.

He remains some way behind the all-time leading number of penalty saves in the competition, which remains safe in the hands of former Manchester City and Portsmouth stopper David James, who made an impressive 13. The 20 penalties that have evaded Schmeichel in that time mean his save percentage does lag behind others. A special mention for former Hull City goalkeeper Allan McGregor for his perfect record from two penalties faced, and Mignolet for saving almost half the 13 spot-kicks that came his way.
But once Bale broke that drought, he did not look back. A series of electrifying attacking displays saw him move up to the left wing, where he tormented defenders across Europe. Brazil right-back Maicon was his most notable victim, as Bale scored three goals and provided two assists during Spurs' two matches against Inter; confirmation of the Welshman's arrival at the top level. Once the legendary Luis Figo hailed Bale's performances as "amazing", it was no surprise when the Portuguese's former club, Real Madrid, showed an interest.

The appointment of Steve Bruce to replace Rafael Benitez last summer was not universally well received by the club's fans, but the 59-year-old has kept them away from the relegation zone and they are only two points short of matching last season's tally. But Bruce extended his wretched record as manager against City. He has never beaten them, losing nine out of 12 matches. They had several first-choice players missing, including Allan Saint-Maximin, Miguel Almiron and Jamaal Lascelles, and conceding two early goals did not help their cause.
Football match from the Australian youth league and we have WS wanderers playing host to Newcastle jets. I think for this match the away team has better chances to win. I totally love teams that score goals and sometimes playing attacking football may not work out but in this case I feel the more attacking team will win.
Following their relegation from the Championship, fans of Ipswich Town would have been hoping for a strong start to the season as they bid to bounce back as soon as possible. The Tractor Boys did start the season like a house on fire but their promotion bid took a hit when they suffered a blip in form. Although they have since started to pick up since that point, they come into this match on the back of three successive draws and know that they need to start turning those draws into wins if they are to accomplish their goal.
That kind of fits in with the recent issues there have been in the boardroom, and the different directions people in different positions at the club seem to want to go in. I am not sure who will decide who the next manager is, but hopefully part of the interview process will be to ask any candidates what sort of changes they would make to the team. That should make it an easy interview for most managers, because it is quite obvious - strengthen the centre of defence and midfield and Arsenal can be a real force in the Premier League.
Chemnitzer FC and Preussen Munster are both in the relegation zone but while Preussen Munster have a good 4-2-2 record in the last 8 league games, Chemnitzer have lost all of the last 4 league games scoring only 1 goal.
Four of the last six competitive meetings between these two clubs have produced under 2.5 goals and Rio Ave are unbeaten in their last four matches against Gil Vicente, while under 2.5 goals were produced in all of Rio Ave’s last six matches as well as in three of Gil Vicente’sd last five outings, so you can see why we have backed fewer than three goals to be scored on Monday. .
What happened last time?The sides met in the second match of Group E as Celtic exorcised the demons of their Champions League qualifying exit to Cluj two months earlier. Revenge was a motivating factor as Celtic powered to a convincing victory with goals either side of half-time from Odsonne Edouard and Mohamed Elyounoussi. Neil Lennon's men haven't looked back since, winning three in a row and reaching the knockout round with two games to spare.

He said winding-up petitions were so HMRC could pursue clubs normally for unpaid NICs. It's not uncommon to do that in a small trader business because you tend to pay NICs at the end of the year," Dr Wilson said. Because HMRC are down the list of football creditors [if a club were to go into administration] they tend to pursue winding-up petitions to make sure HMRC is paid. They are also making a statement to football clubs and the industry to have a deterrent effect.
In the past 5 games between these two sides here at this stadium no matter which team won the game or if it ended up in a draw the both teams scoring yes always happened, and both restarted the season with 2 wins from 2 games scoring plenty of goals on the way as the hosts won with 4-0 last round away at Jableh, while prior to that they defeated Al-Shorta as well at home but earlier this season when they played away at Hitting the game ended up in a 1-1 draw and they will find it hard to keep a clean sheet here.
Sagadam is in very good form right now. They won back to back games. Also, they have good record in this ground against this team. But in this season, their away form is declining and they are on losing streak at present. I think they will be able to continue their recent success at this ground by getting at least a point. The hosts have a good record at home. They are unbeaten in five of the six home games. They have also found the net 8 times. Given that the Sagadam team having a problem in the back line and have been conceding goal we can expect that the hosts will earn a point.
They have seven wins in their last 15 matches and have lost three and kept three clean sheets in that run. Seven of their last 10 matches have produced over 2. Schalke have failed to score in just three of their last 15 matches and conceded two goals or more in four of their last 10 matches. They are winless in their last five home matches, daring four and losing one but they have four wins in 10 home matches.
I remember the quarter-final a few seasons ago at Anfield when we played incredibly well and they scored all their shots on target.

Scoring goals has been a big problem for Strasbourg on the road this term. Barring their 4-0 win over a lowly Amiens side recently, Thierry Laurey's men have scored just one goal away from home this term. They've failed to score in seven out of nine.
It's also the first time the team from Leipzig faces an English club in a competitive fixture, while Spurs will be facing German opposition in the UCL last 16 for the second consecutive season, after knocking out Borussia Dortmund 4-0 on aggregate in 2018-19. The only previous game between Tottenham and a German team at the new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium ended in a 7-2 win for Bayern Munich, in October this season.
I can ask the questions like: why do we do it like that? Have we always done it like that? Or can't we do it differently?"A new strategy to comeKick It Out has faced criticism itself in recent months. Bhandari says a new strategy will come later in the year on the back of a "listening tour" where he has consulted more than 100 people about where Kick It Out should go next. There are desires for further funding.
Sturridge has been suspended from all football and football-related activity until the end of 17 June. The commission found he had instructed his brother Leon to bet on a possible move to Spanish side Sevilla, and that he had given him inside information during the January 2018 transfer window. Strurridge said the FA's case was "overblown and misconceived" and that he gave an innocent explanation for text messages to his brother.

Rumours of angered players forced to arrange high-intensity, secret training sessions behind Ancelotti's back spread like wildfire. Supposed quotes from players criticising the Italian's relaxed methods were vehemently denied but, according to what club president Uli Hoeness told Radio FFH after sacking the manager, Ancelotti had turned five important players against him. As Ancelotti explained in an interview with Kicker: "I'm not a coach, who kills his players in training.
Chrudim pretty much lost all hope about a possible top 3 finish by losing last round with 2-1 away at Vlasim and they did have some scoring chances at 1-1 to take the lead but in the end they were on the losing end. Still at home not that they have defended that well either because they drew 2-2 with Hradec Kralove who can be quite toothless in attack in their away games, and also won 4-3 with Jihlava, but still very good attack to score so many goals in home games against teams fighting for promotion at this stage.
Cantwell's goal in the 75th minute was a delight - cutting through the ball as his shot found the bottom corner. It was just reward for Norwich who controlled play after Ighalo's goal. However, when Klose was sent off the Canaries knew extra time would be spent trying to see the match through to penalties. They almost succeeded. Man of the match - Tim Krul (Norwich) It was a cruel day for Tim Krul who had made a number of brilliant saves to keep Norwich in the tie before Harry Maguire broke Norwich heartsWhat next?Norwich travel to Arsenal in the league on Wednesday (kick-off 18:00 BST), while Manchester United head to Brighton the day before (20:15).
I expect a draw here. Limon are second from the bottom, but they have the home advantage and this fact should not be underestimated. I think they are able to stay unbeaten here. The actual form is not bad, 2 draws on the last 3 matches - 3:3 with Universitarios and 1:1 with Zeledon. Grecia, meanwhile, are in good form. They have 2 victories on the last 2 matches. They beat Alajuelense and Guadalupe. So, we could say Grecia are big favorites in this match as they are in better form. But as I said previously, Limon have the home advantage and I think they will stay unbeaten.
And Leicester wondered why the ball hitting Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne's arm was not a penalty, but the ball striking Leicester defender Dennis Praet's arm was. But are these really VAR errors? The handball rule once involved referees making a judgment call about intent - now it is about "unnatural shapes" and other factors.
I'm really hungry to learn and I try to learn from them every day and I just want to be the best that I can be. I'm trying to sponge all the information I can get. I will keep working hard until that England call comes, if it was easy everyone would be there so I'll just work hard and do all that I can.
I would join in with the lad banter and laugh at the insults that were directed at me in the hope I would be accepted. It was all about being at the kitchen sink and stuff like that. The further I got in my career, the worse it seemed to get. I sometimes turned up to work in my training gear. Of course, I had plenty of time to have a shower and get ready before I went live on air. On one occasion I walked in and was aggressively shouted at and told I needed to turn up like a woman should, with make-up and heels.
