This was an ambition to come here and help the club arrive in the top six. I made a change eight or nine months ago. I've been so happy to come into here to work with the players. I feel we still have a lot of work to do. Not even under Claudio Ranieri in their remarkable 2015-16 title run did Leicester win six league games in a row.
Poch is aware that Guardiola could leave the Etihad Stadium after this season, so is waiting to see if the City officials approach him as a replacement. Paper Round's view: The reported Real Madrid deal sounded like a very odd proposition so it's no surprise that Pochettino wasn't interested in it. Pep Guardiola has constantly been linked with a move away from Manchester next summer, with some reports of a break clause in his current contract which expires in 2021.
In the last four matches, they have scored two or more goals, signaling improvement in attack. Their last eight matches have each yielded over 2. Manchester United are unbeaten in 10 matches at home and they have just one loss in 12 matches at home this season. They have won six of their last 10 home matches.
Everton have not kept a clean sheet in their last five Premier League matches. Sheffield United are unbeaten in their last six home league fixtures, winning five. Sheffield United won the reverse fixture of this meeting 2-0 earlier in the campaign. Only four Premier League teams have a worse away record than Everton this season.

Zorca Ynergetyk BDU is the favorite at home playing against FK Gorodeya this time around. The question is; are they? The answer is a big NO they are not, they are very overrated by the bookies at the odds of 1,75, as fair odds for them would be around 2,60.

A late Ro-Shaun Williams own goal saw Liverpool's young side through to the fifth round of the FA Cup with a 1-0 win over Shrewsbury. The centre half nodded it into his own net in the 75th minute. Shrewsbury thought they had taken the lead just before the hour mark when Shaun Whalley got the ball in the net - but VAR intervened to rule it out for offside.
The 31-year-old forward is on loan to Monaco, where he has had a relatively successful period but has been offered to United for a fee of around £4 million for the rest of the season. He has also had spells at Newcastle United and Fenerbahce since his arrival in England. Paper Round’s view: Slimani has regularly impressed for Algeria, and was a hot prospect at Sporting Lisbon.
Should Alan Shearer be more than Steffen Iversen? Is Olof Mellberg as good as Mario Melchiot?!" he added. We still have a list of improvements we'd like to make but we're really proud of what we've put out there, and the joy it's bringing to people at a difficult time. In this version of the game, Manchester United's Van Nistelrooy and Arsenal forward Henry will both set you back an eye-watering £13m, while Leeds' penalty-taking left-back Ian Harte is owned by 75% of managers - although the £6.
Well the guests are rather new to the 4th league level in Sweden and last season they finished 4th from bottom with the last two places meaning relegation beyond the 4th league level but really around 13 points more than the bottom two places and were in no real danger of relegating with 30 points collected by them last season and overall a decent away side with 5 wins in the league on the road last season.
People drop points here and there and we drop points, it's a crazy league at the moment. I hope and think Arsenal can finish in the top four. Ljungberg said ideally he would have "five or six weeks" to get his ideas across to the players but with a home match against Brighton & Hove Albion on Thursday before a trip to West Ham United the following Monday he does not have that luxury.

Maidstone hire out their 3G pitch to increase income, with around 1,000 people each week using the club's £5m facilities on the banks of the River Medway. The Stones played their first match back in their home town following an absence of 24 years in 2012 after the completion of the 4,200-capacity Gallagher Stadium. Two years earlier the club had been laden with around £350,000 of debt and almost went out of business.
There's an overlap with the windows, with the current season still going in most of the leagues. So that's tricky for a club to even know when to start a contract. They don't want to start spending money when they don't have to. It's a precarious situation, but I am seeing signs of improvement. The Premiership is coming back in a couple of weeks, but the lads in the leagues below won't start back until October and the youth players don't even know when they're back.
On the other hand, should City receive some sort of punishment but it is stated there was no intent to cheat and their breaches were purely technical, the club will feel justified in adopting the stance they have taken and move on with confidence, even if the arguments around them will continue to rage. While it will be too simplistic to judge City purely on severity of the sporting sanction laid down, the secondary issue, around a squad containing some of the biggest names in the game - managed by the most decorated coach - is virtually all about Europe.
Individual training is permitted as part of the Premier League's strict guidelines and 'Project Restart'. Restrictions are in place for team training where social distancing must be "strictly observed" and also no longer than 75 minutes. Corner flags, balls, cones, goalposts and even playing surfaces will be disinfected after each session.

Braga don’t need to win this game but they are still likely to put out a strong starting lineup to ensure they progress through to the knockout stage of a competition they are more than capable of winning this season. Pacos Ferreira average 1.00 points per home game which suggests that the most likely result for them this weekend is a draw, while Braga average 1.00 points per away game and would be happy to see the game end all square.
IN THE CHANNELS Now, all this staying indoors business means that we all have a lot more time on our hands. There are editors all over the country coming up with new content plans to service the masses with extra time on their hands. Someone on reddit has gone niche. Super niche. And then after that, they went one step further than super niche to produce: HOW DOES A MANAGER’S BALDNESS IMPACT ON HIS WIN PERCENTAGE IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE? THE AGE-OLD QUESTION HAS FINALLY BEEN ANSWERED.

All sport has been suspended since March 9 and a nationwide lockdown enforced, as the country attempts to stem the spread of a virus that has now killed 4,032 people, more than any other nation. However, Serie A club Cagliari said on Wednesday that their first team would return to training in small groups on Monday, March 23, while media reports in Italy say that Lazio and Napoli intend to follow suit.
Everton have offered left-back Leighton Baines a one-year extension to his contract. The 35-year-old, who has 30 England caps, has been at the club since 2007 when he joined from Wigan for £6m. The new deal would allow Baines to conclude his career at a club for whom he has made 417 appearances. Although he has played only three times under new boss Carlo Ancelotti, the Italian praised Baines' off-field contribution earlier this season.

The idea of a shop that sells discounted tracksuit bottoms and mid-quality footballs could even for a second consider itself as a vital public service would be laughable if it wasn’t so serious, but of course Sports Direct doesn’t actually think it is that. They’re claiming that they might be just so they can stay open and continue to make money, Ashley treating his employees in much the same way as he has Newcastle for all these years: with absolute contempt.
Video - Juventus offer star duo to Manchester United in attempt to re-sign Pogba – Euro Papers01:01 Cologne pulled themselves together after the break and Jhon Cordoba twice had the ball in the net but both efforts were ruled out for offside, the first after a long VAR delay. But it was Bayern who scored again when Gnabry collected the ball in midfield, ran into the heart of the Cologne defence and curled his effort past Horn in the 65th minute.
Copenhagen haven't tasted defeat in the Europa League so far but also haven't experienced a win since matchweek one, with their 1-0 victory in the reverse of this fixture being followed by 3 straight draws. Their route to the round of 32 is less than secure and they still need to pick up points to keep themselves ahead of both Dynamo Kyiv and Malmo.
There have been 1.5 goals scored in all of Celtic's home games as well as in all of Hibs' away days, and there's no reason why this won't happen again. However, the hosts' firepower up front- namely their 3.63 goals on average at home- will more than likely be too much for a Hibs side that has failed to keep a clean sheet on the road this season. We think there's value in Celtic -2, as they have won by a margin of two goals in seven of their eight games in Glasgow. We're also going for a 3-1 win for the Hoops, as we feel the visitors will be able to keep up with their scoring trend on the road- where they've netted an average of 1.25 goals this season and have done so in their last five fixtures.
ANCELOTTI ANSWERS THE DOUBTERS Since taking over as Everton manager in December, following the sacking of Marco Silva, Carlo Ancelotti's side have earned more points than any team in the Premier League apart from runaway leaders Liverpool. The 17 points gained have moved Everton up to seventh place, in contention for a Europa League slot, and just five points behind Chelsea, who occupy the fourth Champions League qualification position.
West Brom have scored twice or more in each of their last seven home games. We expect them to repeat that and do enough to extend their good record against the Swans. Their back to back wins last season came with a weaker, less balanced side than they have now. After consecutive home wins and following their five game-winning run, a 2-1 victory is our correct score pick.

That would change the status quo. We can't let that happen. The organisation has not announced how much money the revamped competition will generate although Infantino said it had received nine offers for its commercial rights. But Tebas believes FIFA has not considered the effect the tournament's prize money might have on distorting the competitive balance in national leagues.
“Marseille” has already proved that the location of the team in the leaders of the French championship is far from an accident. Wards Andre Villas-Boas continue to confidently gain points and move, if not to fight with the “PSG” for the first line, then for second place for sure. However, the “Bordeaux” is far from the weakest. What are only six goals scored in the last round. The club goes without defeats and fairly competes for the top three. The result of the upcoming meeting is unpredictable. The only thing you can be sure of is that we will see many goals. They like to hammer that those that others.
In a sign of the soccer tournaments bringing some change to Qatar, where the sale of alcohol is restricted to hotels, beer will be available at the official Doha Sports Park fan-zone, although not at the stadiums. On the field, Liverpool, runaway Premier League leaders this season, are the favourites but Flamengo, winners of the Copa Libertadores, will be strong challengers.

Two teams are at the bottom of the standings. Two of the weakest teams this season are facing each other. Both teams lost their last two matches. Home team conceded the most goals in the league. It promises to be a very even and boring spectacle. Nothing but a goalless tie comes to mind. I'll put it anyway. When are at 17th, Dresden at 18th and for the Dresden it is a game of survival after 2 losses. Wiesbaden lost the last 3 games, last time 2-3 against HSV. Dresden lost miserably in the first half in Hannover, but was undefeated three times before the away defeat in Hannover. Things are going to be tough, I expect a draw.

That was enough to convince AC Milan to sign him in last year's January transfer window. He made a decent start, but this season the pressure of that famous number nine shirt appeared to weighed heavy on his shoulders as he struggled and the team struggled. Zlatan Ibrahimovic's arrival at the San Siro was a sign that the club had lost confidence in him. I'm surprised a much-talked-about move to the Premier League never materialised as he seems naturally suited to English football.
Television images circulating on social media showed a City fan making a gesture in front of United's Brazilian midfielder Fred during the game, which the visitors won 2-1, leading to his arrest by the police. Anthony Burke of Panfield Road, Wythenshawe has been charged with a Racially Aggravated Section 5 Public Order Act," GMP said in a statement https://www.
The guests have actually won all 3 games played by them on the road so far this season and at early stage this season they were even the league leaders as I believe they won their opening 3 games in the league. On the road they first won with 1-0 away at Asan, than a 2-0 win for them away from home at Ansan Greeners and last away game was quite tough one as Suwon City was in top form scoring a lot of goals before they hosted Bucheon but the guests won it with 2-1 in the end.

The media centre for soccer was moved to a smaller air-conditioned room on Tuesday after journalists complained about having to attend a press conference in what appeared to be an unfinished warehouse, with scaffolding, exposed bricks and no ventilation. Singapore's chef-de-mission Juliana Seow wrote to the organising committee asking for their "urgent and immediate attention" to address the hurdles their athletes were facing, including a lack of halal food.
Saturday's game at the Etihad is the standout fixture of the weekend but the match between West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur at the London Stadium earlier in the day is also generating plenty of interest given the managerial change at Spurs. Less than a year after his dismissal from Manchester United, Jose Mourinho is back, replacing the sacked Mauricio Pochettino at Spurs, looking to improve a team that is languishing in 14th place.
