Utd want Niguez to replace Pogba Manchester United are growing increasingly confident of signing Saul Niguez from Atletico Madrid. The Daily Star report that Niguez would become United’s club-record signing at £135m and would replace Paul Pogba, who looks set to leave, with Real Madrid the most likely destination.
The big clubs are living in a bubble, beyond their means, starting with the millionaire salaries of the players. They must understand that nothing after this crisis will ever be the same again. In reply, Serie A said in a statement that football in Italy employs 300,000 people and accounts for one percent of gross domestic product.
Solskjaer has decided to keep his squad in Europe, most likely Spain or Portugal, to prepare for the rest of their campaign, which includes a Europa League last-32 meeting with Belgian side Club Bruges. When asked if United's plans had changed, Solskjaer said: "Yes, there are things that worry me more than football. We were looking at the Middle East but that is definitely not going to happen. We will stay in Europe.
This time, it was goalline technology that caused frustration as it failed to pick up Oliver Norwood's free-kick crossing the line in Sheffield United's goalless draw at Aston Villa. Luiz horror show against Manchester City Luiz capped an error-strewn performance against Manchester City by getting sent offA day to forget for David Luiz as everything that could go wrong, did. Against Manchester City at Etihad Stadium in June, the Arsenal defender came off the bench in the first half, was at fault for Raheem Sterling's opener, gave away a penalty, and then got himself sent off.
On Thursday, six third-tier clubs had said they were determined to complete their remaining fixtures. With League One and the National League, both of which feed clubs into League Two, yet to decide how their final tables will look, it means clubs at the top and bottom of League Two will have to wait for their fate. Crewe Alexandra were top of the division when the season was halted, with Swindon Town and Plymouth Argyle in the other two automatic promotion places.
We will naturally see smaller squad sizes and more use of the loan system, particularly by lower league clubs," Wilson told BBC Sport. He thinks that will "help redistribute playing talent" but foresees a "depression" in the transfer market. Even if clubs are able to pay big fees, the public perception will be so poor that they will try to avoid it," he added. That will naturally depress the total value of the transfer market, and clubs should use this to their advantage in player contract negotiations so anybody looking at contract renewals will probably look at lighter contracts.
They are replaced by Watford, who lost 3-0 to Burnley after strikers Chris Wood and Ashley Barnes scored in the second half to secure their team's first away win of the season. Wolves moved up to fifth as Joao Moutinho and Raul Jimenez earned Nuno Espirito Santo's reinvigorated side a 2-1 win at 10-man Bournemouth, who had Simon Francis dismissed 37 minutes into his first league start since Boxing Day for a second booking.
A special sort of animosity’“Previous”. This is the polite phrase many of the 1970 final’s participants use to explain the history and lasting grievances being carried into the game at Old Trafford. On a grander scale, Leeds-Chelsea was the north-south divide personified. The Blues were seen as the fashionable southern fancy-dans, who hung out drinking champagne with celebrities on the Kings Road, while the Whites were perceived as the dour, gritty northerners, smoking cigarettes and playing carpet bowls in their working men's club.
The CAS ruling also saw the club’s fine reduced from 600,000 to 300,000 Swiss francs (£230,000). While Lampard has used youngsters such as Mason Mount and Tammy Abraham to supplement areas of his squad in need of reinforcement, the Blues have been heavily linked with the likes of Jadon Sancho and Ben Chilwell in January.

I wanted a change," Jackson said at the time. I felt the business interests I had in Huddersfield could be repeated with greater prospects in a place like London. Before long, he was the landlord of a pub in Covent Garden, had an interest in the Queen's Hotel in Leicester Square, and had a weekly column syndicated in local newspapers across the country. However, that spotlight would soon burn Jackson, who was suspended, transfer-listed and told he would never play for Chelsea again after the club discovered he had ordered a round of drinks for the entire team the night before a game with Manchester City.
But he was the man who made the key contribution in the end, netting the winner completely out of nowhere at the death. MAN OF THE MATCH – Adama Traore (Wolves) It is only fair that Traore gets his share of credit too. Not only did he score a superb equaliser, worthy of winning any game, but he was a constant thorn in Spurs’ side.

However, the Easter Road side has seen goals galore this season, with no games at home ending goalless. Hibs have scored an average of 1.71 goals in their home ties and are yet to fail to score. But the Edinburgh club has also received a lot, letting in an average of 1.43 goals and keeping a clean sheet in just 14% of home ties.

More importantly, The Cod Army have become an extremely sturdy unit at Highbury Stadium, which is becoming something of a fortress. Fleetwood are unbeaten in five at home, three of which they've won, while they've lost just one game on their own patch all season. They've done well offensively and have also done a good job of preventing teams from threatening, restricting their opponents to just a single goal or less in 11 out of 11.

Midweek saw them have to come from behind to get a point against Napoli in the Champions League. Back in domestic football though, they have some highly impressive statistics to protect. Liverpool are unbeaten in the Premier League this season with only Manchester United taking points off them. They are without defeat in their last 30 league games and the last 46 at home in the Premier League.
Paul Pogba faces a challenge just to get fit again, according to Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Pogba's season has been wrecked by two ankle injuries that have restricted him to eight games for United. The 26-year-old has played only twice since September and is still only at the treadmill phase of his comeback. Paul knows he has to work hard to get back to his best," said Solskjaer.
A mixture of glee and sheer relief. In contrast, this was an awful result for Hearts, if not quite fatal. In truth, they got what they largely deserved from a fairly insipid performance that was littered with predictable football and a lack of threat until late on. It was too late. The hosts started exactly in the manner their manager demanded. Set the tone from the start was the message and they did.

The visitors head into this clash having lost just once in their last 10 away trips in the Championship. Overall this season Forest have lost only three times in 16 matches, a fine run which should help them build on a solid point from the weekend. Forest were able to hold Bristol City to a draw at Ashton Gate, their latest big result of the campaign.
If I knew that in three weeks' time I was going to go into a big period of games, I could probably adjust my training to build up to it. I would get stronger and add in certain elements of fitness compartments to get ready for it. Ultimately, it is your job. You have to do what you have to do. You don't see the NHS workers saying they don't want to go in. You can't say you don't fancy kicking a ball around today.
No Bundesliga team have earned fewer points than Eintracht over the past seven games. They have failed to win each of their last seven Bundesliga fixtures. They've managed to accumulate just a single Bundesliga point during that period of time.
Henderson - who lifted the Champions League trophy last season - will be the first Liverpool captain to lift the trophy awarded to the English champions since Alan Hansen in 1990, despite his season being over because of a knee injury. Henderson and his team-mates will receive the trophy on a podium surrounded by banners made by fans and built in the middle of the famous Kop Stand. The club has urged fans to "stay at home to enjoy the ceremony" in light of the ongoing measures in place to safeguard against the spread of coronavirus.
GOOOOOAAALLLLLL!!!! Burnley 0-2 Manchester United. On the break, Rashford scores his 16th of the season to put the seal on the victory. Great pass from James to set Rashford up.

They have one loss in their last six home matches and six of their last 10 home matches have produced over 2. In 11 league matches at home this season, Southampton have managed three wins, one clean sheet and six losses. They have the third poorest defence record in the league, having conceded 39 goals.
They are one of the best teams in European history," Farke told reporters on Friday. It's a huge task and we know that. We have our strengths and if we bring our best football on the pitch, we can get something. Norwich have won only four of their 25 games this season since being promoted, yet are not cut adrift.
We have to be firing on all cylinders on Sunday. No time to lose. We know we have to deliver against Hertha and we want to win the game obviously. Flick had demanded reinforcements in the winter transfer period but so far Bayern have not recruited the defender and winger he desired. It is up to us," Flick said.
The conference followed a separate meeting, hosted by culture secretary Oliver Dowden, involving medical experts from several sports organisations, government and Public Health England, about "stepping up planning" for sport's eventual return. Representatives from football, rugby union, cricket, racing and funding body UK Sport were present. Dowden introduced the meeting and said elite sport would return behind closed doors "when, and only when, it is safe to do so on the basis of expert medical advice".

It riled me. I think that was the game that cost United the title. You could sense a nervousness in the stadium and that result gave City massive momentum. Man Utd 4-3 Man City Michael Owen's late winner in front of the Stretford End sparked pandemonium at Old TraffordSeptember 2009A Manchester derby classic. Michael Owen would deliver his most memorable moment in a United shirt by coolly converting a 96th-minute finish to spark wild celebrations at the end of a topsy-turvy match.
Bale has scored his share of decisive goals in the most important games for Real but the Spanish media constantly accuse the Wales forward of lacking commitment to the cause. I'm a defender of Bale, he's an incredible player," Brazil international Casemiro told radio station Onda Cero on Friday. People only talk about the bad things he does off the pitch, but they don't talk about what he does well, like the goals he scored in finals that won us trophies.
Their first shot was Dwight McNeil's blocked effort after 42 minutes - and their first effort on target was the youngster's 25-yard free-kick on the hour mark. Brady will have enjoyed his late goal - his first in club football since Burnley's win at Bournemouth on 29 November 2017 - set up by his childhood friend Jeff Hendrick, but it was merely a footnote. In such a tight league - with three points the gap behind fifth-placed Crystal Palace and Burnley in 11th - Dyche should not worry too much about this defeat.

Simeone played for Atletico in an impressive career that also saw him represent Argentina 106 times'I call Simeone "Mr" - they don't know gaffer!' Atletico have been extremely successful under Simeone, who has led them to a La Liga title, one Copa del Rey success and two Europa League wins since 2011. It can be difficult [to understand each other]; he does try to say little words in English. On the pitch it's not a problem, though.
The points are surely in the bag for Real Madrid. Benzema picked up the ball, played the pass for Valverde who played the return ball and the French striker fires first-time into the back of the Espanyol net. SENT OFF! Real Madrid are going to finish this match with 10 men. Mendy trips an Espanyol player and is shown a second yellow card.
It is less than six years since Wolves went to Crawley Town for a midweek League One game. Those who were there can still remember that depressing excursion to Sussex. The pitch was bad. The facilities were bad. The result - a 2-1 defeat - was bad. The three-and-a-half-hour bus ride and return home at 2. As they prepare to host Espanyol in the last 32 of the Europa League, nights like those at the Broadfield Stadium belong to a different era.
Tottenham were outclassed for much of the Champion's League last 16, first leg, against RB Leipzig and lucky to come away with a deficit of just a solitary goal, from Timo Werner's penalty. See alsoTottenham Hotspur v RB Leipzig - Champions League LIVE Ben Davies brought down Konrad Laimer two minutes before the hour mark and Werner drilled the spot kick low and hard beyond the outstretched right arm of Hugo Lloris.
Juventus is playing much better in the moment, and they are at the playoff place after bad run and position near the bottom. They are coming here after the win in the recent round, and will try to get another well performance. Jalapa was in the upper league in this part of the season, but they are easy going down now. Team is not having such a wide roster, and they cannot maintain same level.
