Mirabelli said: 'Maldini is as if he had become a doctor in one of the most important hospitals in the world without having attended the right schools.

Premier League players' names will be replaced on the back of their shirts with 'Black Lives Matter' for the first 12 matches of the restarted season. The Premier League will also support any player who chooses to 'take a knee' before or during matches. Players in Germany have made gestures of solidarity with people protesting about the death of George Floyd. We, the players, stand together with the singular objective of eradicating racial prejudice," read a statement.
I'm sad because of the draw but above all because I suffered racist insults, no black player or any player ever wants to hear that," Williams told the club's official media after the game. It's completely out of order, people should go to matches to enjoy themselves, to support their team; football is a team sport and should be played in a friendly atmosphere.
Both of these sides have high hopes for 2020, but who will get the year off to the perfect start on Monday? This week sees Fiorentina trying to put a terrible 2019 behind them, while Bologna are aiming to continue their climb.
WHO ARE DEFENDING CHAMPIONS? Surprisingly, perhaps, it's England, who have competed in all five editions of the tournament so far and lifted their first trophy last year, recording two wins and a draw in their three matches. It raised expectations for a strong performance in the summer's World Cup - where they ultimately lost when it counted, losing to the USA in the semi-final in France.
He would encourage individuals who struggled patiently in the hope they would eventually benefit the team. This has not always been the case with Mourinho - as Kevin de Bruyne and Mohamed Salah may testify. He will need to tread carefully, with the whispers starting about striker Harry Kane's future and the likes of midfielder Christian Eriksen looking for an exit. Mourinho's approach will be a shock to Spurs' system.
Italy international Immobile then rounded the goalkeeper after a long ball over the top from defender Francesco Acerbi and, after Bastos had restarted the scoring after the interval, Immobile had his hat-trick - and his 23rd goal in 19 league games this season - with another confident penalty, awarded for a handball by Omar Colley. Linetty gave the travelling fans something to cheer, but a miserable day for Sampdoria was capped by the dismissal of defender Julian Chabot just three minutes later.
Only one team can qualify from each of the four groups in the Taca da Liga and even with a weakened starting eleven, you would fancy Porto to do enough to ensure they progressed through to the knockout stage. Chaves have only lost twice at home this season and ar eyet to suffer defeat in Group D while Porto have only lost once on the road in the league and also have a 100% record in the Taca da Liga this season.
La Liga rules stipulate that any club playing in Spain's top two divisions may apply to sign a player outside of the transfer window, providing that several specific conditions are met. The first is that the receiving club must have suffered a long-term injury - a minimum of five months with evidence required from medical experts.
in this match we have two pretty much similar teams right now and also both of them are in pretty good form since they won their last two games and it is not easy to tell for any of them they are favorites for the win, brest is favorite by the bookies but I m not buying that and I think it is much more safer to go with under goals cause brest have very good defense on the road and energetic at home is pretty hard team to score on so I think maximum 2 goals in this one,probably 1-1
I wouldn't change a thing, though," he says. I was lucky that I managed to cram a lot in. I travelled the world, I met great people, played with huge clubs. Those first few games in Amsterdam, playing in front of big crowds, you've got the lovely Ajax strip on, I was standing thinking, 'I'm playing with Ajax, Johan Cruyff's my manager, I'm standing next to Marco van Basten' - it was such a wonderful experience.
They are a fantastic team, confidence is high. They have become winners and haven't lost many games in the last 18 months. To lose the games they would have to do, they now have got enough players, experience and quality to get the job done. And before you even get started on the imperious, swaggering nature of Liverpool's performances, perfectly illustrated by this demolition of the Foxes, a glance at the statistics show that this is a side that are champions-in-waiting.
Granotas have kept two clean sheets and conceded just four goals in total across those fixtures, so it's easy see why they are favourites this Friday to see off a Mallorca side who have been toiling on their travels.

The visitors should be confident of getting a goal, as they come here in fine form. Cagliari have found the net in each of their last 10 Serie A away games. They’ve found the net in 94% of their games overall, while this week sees them meet a weakened Juve outfit. Juventus have kept a clean sheet in just five league games so far this season; they last kept as few clean sheets at this stage of the competition back in 2010/11.

But he also outlines the difficulties in keeping all this going. It's hard when you've no dosh and utilities companies are trying to get massive bills out of you," he says. And getting pitches is a massive problem in a rugby city. If football truly was the national game, we would be investing in it. Scottish football has been trying to build a house from the roof down for years by throwing money at senior clubs, but surely you've got to factor in where players come from.

Daniel Levy, the Spurs chairman, travelled to Madrid for talks with Madrid president Florentino Perez in an effort to secure the services of the 30-year-old forward who moved from White Hart Lane to Madrid for what, in 2013, was a world record transfer of £85 million.

Difficult for league to continue' - Devlin'Wage cuts not inevitable' - CormackAberdeen pandemic insurance to stop"The club has worked diligently to minimise the impact on its lower-paid employees," said Cormack, who urged fans to reach a target of 10,000 season-ticket sales for next season and 7,000 AberDNA members by 31 July. Our investor group, including myself, who invested an additional £5m last December, has committed £2m more to the cause," the chairman added.
Willian was sensational. Any hope Tottenham had went when Son was sent off but they were not up to standard well before that. It's been a real wake-up call for Jose and his players. The shift in formation has been a bit of tactical genius from Frank Lampard. He has got the better of his counterpart and Jose Mourinho had no answers. It's the manner of the defeat that will hurt Tottenham. It's not often you watch a defeat and don't blame the players but it has all come down to tactics.
Stoke, who have lost five of their past six away matches, are two points from safety and will spend Christmas in the bottom three. They were aggrieved not to be awarded a penalty when Howson appeared to clip Clucas' leg with the score at 1-1 but were grateful to goalkeeper Jack Butland for keeping them in the contest. The England international brilliantly kept out Daniel Ayala's second-half header, having also done well to save from Fletcher in the first half.
In the second half, we tried but our quality in the final third was quite obvious today. It's hard to judge it. We weren't really at it in the first half but we just need that sharpness. It's a lot to ask of the players. The best of the statsSince the restart last month, only Manchester City (18) and Manchester United (17) have earned more Premier League points than Burnley (15 - W4 D3 L1).

Chief among them is freeing Abdoulaye Doucoure from an anchor role in midfield to impact the game at both ends in a box-to-box capacity. I used to play in this position when I was in France," Doucoure told watfordfc. I will play wherever but I'm pleased with this position as I can get forward and also get back to protect the midfield. The 27-year-old has two goals and an assist in his past two games, having contributed one solitary strike prior to that.
WHO IS INTERESTED? PSG. They will quite happily risk upsetting club harmony, despite Keylor Navas’ excellent season, should Europe’s most sought-after goalkeeper become an option. And they have an advantage: Leonardo. AC Milan’s former sporting director now holds office at the French champions. And that may give them the edge over another interested party, Chelsea.
