He has seen a lack of direction and certainty, four directors of sport and endless advisers under this regime. He has seen the president become vice-president as well and the team become weaker, despite spending €1,000m since the departure of Neymar. And now this. No wonder he snapped. COMING UP Not much today, but Real Madrid and Barcelona are in action in the Copa del Rey, playing Real Sociedad and Athletic Bilbao respectively.
OXLADE-CHAMBERLAIN INJURY - Ah, no. Oxlade-Chamberlain lands on his right leg and something squirts out uncontrollably. It probably isn't his knee, and it looks like it his ankle, but that could do for a month or two - at least - for him. PENALTY! MANE GOES DOWN! Rafinha is booked for hauling down Mane down the middle.
However in Arsenal’s statement they made it clear that they may not be able to play some fixtures. ARSENAL STATEMENT IN FULL Our London Colney training centre has been closed after head coach Mikel Arteta received a positive COVID-19 result this evening. Arsenal personnel who had recent close contact with Mikel will now self-isolate in line with Government health guidelines.
The club said they were also working with police to identify fans who threw objects on to the field when Fred was taking a corner in front of them. Fred appeared to have been struck by at least one object. The club operates a zero tolerance policy regarding discrimination of any kind, and anyone found guilty of racial abuse will be banned from the club for life," added the City statement.
LITTLE SUCCESS To prove his point, while praising the impact of Liverpool's Egypt forward Mohamed Salah, a hugely popular figure in the Middle East, Al Thawadi quickly rolls off a list of half a dozen Arab players of the past, who he clearly feels did not get the credit Salah now enjoys. Behind those words, is perhaps a sense of frustration at how the idea of a Qatari World Cup has been received in the established football nations, where many questioned the wisdom of playing a tournament in a small Gulf state with little record of success in the game.
Since the injury to striker Rashford and the prolonged absence of midfielder Paul Pogba, United have had problems with penalty-takers, but Fernandes could be the answer. There is also a developing relationship between Fernandes and the fans, which is hardly surprising. They know a top-class player when they see one. Did you know? Fernandes became the first player to score their first Premier League goal for United with a penalty-kick.
The Wizards are currently third in the Southeast division of the Eastern Conference. Their 17-31 record has them 16 wins behind divisional leaders Miami Heat and tenth overall in the conference needing to make up four wins on eighth placed Orlando Magic. They have an 11-11 home record and have won six of their last eight, another win looks on the cards here.
You feel if they don't win the Champions League then it's not a good season. But if they do win it, it's a great season," Wright told BBC Radio 5 Live. I would start saving players for it because that's what City have got to start focusing on. Pep Guardiola, who won two Champions League titles at Barcelona, has not managed to take City beyond the quarter-finals of the competition.
The hosts of this match look so well in last matches and to be honest I think that they shouldn't be the underdog here. However, Jalapa is favorite to win but I don't think that they will be able to get more than one point here. Sabanas played well in the previous weeks and at home, they should use this advantage to beat Jalapa. The visitors lost four matches on away in this season and won only once. I pick a draw here at least but I m going to try to pick this handicap for Sabanas. I believe that they can win this match
Kettering and Altrincham will face each other in the upcoming match in the National League North. Kettering this season have the following results: 7W, 7D and 11L. Meanwhile Altrincham have 11W, 7D and 7L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
The decision was reached after a conference call involving UEFA’s 55 member associations, the board of the European Club Association and the board of European leagues. The move gives greater flexibility to complete the domestic seasons, the Champions League and the Europa League over the summer. ANY NEWS ON CLUB FOOTBALL? All European competitions have been postponed until further notice, with UEFA setting up a "working group" involving leagues and club representatives to examine the football calendar.
Crvena Zvezda have won seven of their last nine league games. They will face radnik who have not won their last four games. Radnik were eliminated in the cup in their last game by partizan. In their previous h2h crvena zvezda have won four of their last five home games against radnik by more than three goal margin. Crvena Zvezda were declared champions in their last game Spartak subotica but want to lift the title in their home turf. Radnik are in midtable and have nothing to play for. I expect an Crvena Zvezda to win this game by a huge margin probably 5:0.

Now he is at the best college he could be. Listen to the Football Daily podcastSolskjaer worked with Haaland for two years at Molde, giving the striker his debut at 16, and flew to Austria to talk with the teenager in December. His career is being guided by agent Mino Raiola, who also looks after Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Paul Pogba, and his father Alf-Inge, who played for Leeds United and Manchester City.
It did not take long for the deadlock to be broken after the break. Ings believed he should have had a penalty, but once Kevin Friend had waved away his appeals, Liverpool broke. Firmino’s flick fed Oxlade-Chamberlain, who drove a shot past a flat-footed McCarthy. Southampton protested the decision not to give them a spot kick but to no avail.
Toby Alderweireld's late header gave Tottenham victory in a tightly-contested north London derby. There was an eerie atmosphere behind closed doors in the vast Tottenham Hotspur Stadium but this was still a fiercely-competitive derby in the traditions of this great rivalry as Spurs and Arsenal battle for a place in Europe next season. Arsenal took the lead after 16 minutes when Alexandre Lacazette's rising drive flashed past Spurs keeper Hugo Lloris but Jose Mourinho's side were level within three minutes when Son Heung-min took advantage of slack defending by Sead Kolasinac and David Luiz to score with a deft chip.
But the Uruguayan could now miss the rest of the season after having a knee operation on Sunday, with the diagnosis of a four-month absence far worse than the initial expectation that he would be out for just one. Replacing Suarez at centre forward could be achieved by repositioning Antoine Griezmann, who has been playing in a left-wing berth since his big-money summer move from Atletico Madrid but would surely be delighted to receive the chance to play in a more central role.
LASK Linz will against AZ Alkmaar in match UEFA Europa League. My prediction this match could be the won for LASK Linz with margin score mis 1 goal. LASK Linz have great result on last 3 match in the home on qualification Europe League due to LASK Linz have been win for the all match. Meanwhile, AZ Alkmaar have also good result on last 3 away match in qualification Europe League due to AZ Alkmaar have won in 1 match, 1 match is lose and 1 match is draw. Nevertheless, I think that LASK Linz can defeat AZ Alkmaar on this match due to LASK Linz mor strong in every home match and moreover LASK Linz has been defeat PSV Eindhoven the one of club in Netherlands on qualification.

The alleged offences occurred in July 2019, which is when Trippier joined Atletico Madrid from Tottenham Hotspur. The 29-year-old has until 18 May to provide a response. I have fully complied with the FA’s investigation over the past several months on a voluntary basis and will continue to do so," Trippier said.
City have 38 points from 18 games having played one match more than Juergen Klopp's side, who won the Club World Cup in Doha on Saturday. When a team has 16 (league) victories from 17, it's unrealistic to think we're going to chase them," he added. It's unrealistic right now. We have to try to win our games, secure Champions League for next season and then you never know.

Man of the match - Eamonn BrophyBBC Scotland's Jonathan SutherlandSuch a tenacious, tigerish team performance from Kilmarnock in the second half and hard to pick out one individual but Brophy gets the nod. The striker has worked tirelessly this season, sometimes on his own but more recently with the able support of Nicke Kabamba. He battled manfully against the Rangers defenders in the first half with scant reward, but kept going.
this is the second game for Betis this Monday evening after last Thursday's derby. Before the derby, Betis was in 12th place with 33 points, Granada is slightly better place with 5 points more before this game with 38 points and sit 9th place. In an unfamiliar environment a close match is expected but Betis is quite strong at home, Granada away weak (3-3-8). Granada won against Getafe 1-2 this weekend and can still dream of Europe just 2 points behind from Valencia. Getafe lost 2-0 and ends up 13th in the championship. Granada has not lost for 5 games and will be motivated to grab these famous European places.
Ultimately, we're expecting this to be an open and exciting game. Nothing but a win would be of any use to the hosts, whereas the visitors are typically an expansive outfit and can afford to play with real freedom given they have absolutely nothing riding on the fixture.
We feel that Paderborn are in with a good chance of capitalising on Eintracht's poor away record, and recent run of poor form in this Sunday's fixture. The Bundesliga's last-placed side have enjoyed a relatively encouraging run of form in recent weeks.
Some lads are extremely talented; I’ve got a little bit of talent but I’ve definitely made the most of it over the years. Over the next four or five years I feel they’re going to be the best years of my career,” he told the Irish Times last year. Hourihane is always keen to stress how hard he works and to downplay his natural ability – but working hard is a talent, and one that’s all too often neglected and overlooked.

There were also two red cards in the first half hour and both sides hit the woodwork twice in the second half while Lazio had two goals disallowed in a remarkable game. Insigne gave Napoli, who had lost their last three Serie A games, a much-needed boost when he collected the ball on the left, skipped past his marker and side-footed a low shot past Thomas Strakosha and into the far corner after two minutes.
Leaving the public purse to pick up the cost of furloughing low paid workers, whilst players earn millions and billionaire owners go untouched is something I know the public will rightly take a very dim view of," wrote Dowden. At a time of national crisis, our national sport must play its part. I expect to see the football authorities judge the mood of the country and come together with an agreement urgently," he added.
Why do so, when they could pursue the game’s greatest prize and harness the huge earning potential of winning it at a genuine European super club? Most seriously of all for the City project, this decision basically ends Pep Guardiola’s reign as City boss. The Catalan has already spent four seasons as City manager and was being strongly linked with a move to Juventus even before this story broke.
The hosts head into this clash fifth from bottom, while Brescia are in the drop zone in 18th place. That means this clash could have a major impact on the shape of things at the bottom. Sampdoria may have had their problems at home of late, but they will target a meeting with a side like Brescia as the perfect chance to start getting results here.
Saint Mirren have managed to kick out this opponent from the Cup match, after overtime 4:5 at this ground, and they are heading here again, in order to make their position better in front of the playout part.

Oleksandr Zinchenko replaces Benjamin Mendy. Posted at 59' David Silva (Manchester City) wins a free kick in the attacking half. Posted at 59' Foul by Mason Mount (Chelsea). Jurgen Klopp has succeeded where seven managers before him failed by ending Liverpool's 30-year wait for a top-flight title and guiding them to a first Premier League crown. The Reds are on course for a record-breaking domestic season, but it has not always been smooth sailing for the charismatic German, who took charge in October 2015.
It was very hard to get rid of him," laughed the former Northern Ireland boss. After the game when I would come back to Manchester, he'd be phoning me up once, twice a week. He was always there for advice and help. I'll never forget him. He was a fantastic character.

Based on playing to his side's strengths, namely an outstanding keeper in Nick Pope and top-class defenders, but more strings to their bow. Worrying talk that the Dyche era may be over - Burnley would struggle to find someone better. Pre-season prediction: 15thWhat I said in August: "A smart manager who knows how it works and how to get the best out of his squad. He will keep Burnley up again. Chelsea - 4thFrank Lampard deserves great credit for his work this season, operating under a transfer ban at the start of his first season in charge (and his first as a Premier League manager) but blooded youngsters such as Mason Mount and Tammy Abraham successfully and utilised his squad well at the sharp end of the season.
