A convincing 5-0 win over London City Lionesses in the FA Cup has put Reading in good stead ahead of Manchester United coming to town.

Goals in quick succession by Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane before halftime calmed the jitters after Callum Wilson had given Bournemouth a surprise ninth-minute lead. It was far from vintage Liverpool, however, and they struggled to finish off a Bournemouth side who could have grabbed late equaliser through Wilson.
Bruno Fernandes was unable to inspire Manchester United to victory on his debut as the £47m new arrival had to settle for a goalless draw against Wolves at Old Trafford. In a game of few chances, Fernandes did force a couple of routine saves from fellow countryman Rui Patricio, who also almost dropped another into his own net as he inexplicably fumbled his fellow Portuguese's tame shot round the post.
I was not told anything other than 'try to win the next game', that's what we all agreed. A vision for the future and let's try to do the best we can this season," he said.

United have not attacked with intelligence since the early stages of David Moyes’ time, before the whole hollow edifice crumbled. In the second half, he was pulled back deeper. Either that was Solskjaer’s choice or the midfielder’s, but it is the manager’s job to correct such mistakes. He was taken away from the danger area, from the place on the pitch that he was at his most threatening at Sporting Lisbon.

For me the turning point was Don Masson's missed penalty at 1-1. If we'd scored that we'd have got something out of the game. For Peru's third goal - the free-kick - I'm not blaming the wall but i think it was Stuart Kennedy and Lou Macari, he hit the ball straight at their faces and they ducked out of the road as players do. I got a hand to it but it was never going to be enough. Maybe it was the wrong people at the wrong end of the wall.
Early reports are that there is no money to spend in January; that Mourinho knows this; and that he’s fine with it.

However, they came at Brighton with all guns blazing from kickoff.

He has settled in great. History tells you that bringing in new signings from different leagues in January it is hard to know how they are going to settle," said United coach Michael Carrick. Is it going to be straight away or are they going to need some time? Certainly Bruno has fitted in great on the pitch and is as important around the pitch in the dressing room. He has got a real presence about him and the lads have taken to him well.

We will respect the winter break - KloppThe Football Association said every club agreed to this season's FA Cup fixture schedule and knew fourth-round replays might cut into their winter breaks, as is also the case with Tottenham, Southampton and Newcastle. But people at Liverpool who have spoken to Klopp say he regards it as a 'line in the sand' moment with regard to player welfare and believes that for his opposition to the present situation to carry any weight, he must follow through his argument that the winter break was introduced to give players a rest.
Again, broadcasters have signed contracts for an agreed number of matches and so if those matches are not played then it could be argued that the contracts have been breached and compensation must be paid. Total shutdown until September' A separate report in The Independent stated that the idea that football could resume at the start of April was viewed as "ludicrous" in some quarters.
Odds are quite decent for taking the over 2.5 goals in this one with Aalborg sitting at this moment on the 6th place which is also the last place for the Championship group once the normal season ends, while Esbjerg is just 2nd from bottom right now and they do not have even 20 points won so far this season not to mention they lost big with 4-0 away at Aalborg earlier this season so perhaps if I was not such a Big Chicken I should take the straight away win in this one as even last season Aalborg while playing here scored 4 goals alone and won with 4-1 in the end.
Paper Round's view: The criteria mentioned certainly fits both Werner and Sancho, but a deal for the English teenager would most likely cost around £120 million, which would could price Jurgen Klopp's side out of a potential swoop for Sancho.

The model work he did for Calvin Klein was a bit of a surprise to everyone but he has said that it forced him out of his comfort zone, and it probably did. With that being said, he will always be a bit of a mystery. It is quite peculiar. When he spoke everyone listened'Spells in Japan and India concluded Ljungberg's 20-year playing career.

It's these games that I want to be playing in, so I loved every minute of it and grew in confidence as the game went on. Now we need to go back to training and recover.

West Ham v Liverpool Sunday, 3pm, Rush Green Stadium It's been another difficult season for West Ham who are without a win in three, but what better chance to pick up three points than facing the struggling Liverpool at home?

You can be a really good manager but if you don't have the players to execute the plan, then you will struggle. Arteta has good attacking options but he still has weaknesses in central midfield and defence. They still need to bring players in.

Koulibaly to PSG? Staying with PSG, the Daily Mail is also reporting that the Ligue 1 leaders are leading the chase for long-term Manchester United target Kalidou Koulibaly.

Osasuna is struggle to get a win in the league and I think that struggle is going to continue tonight, they are favorites for the win but levante is not easy team to beat and also it seems like levante is playing better on the road then at home so I think they will produce enough to win a point, also it is not realistic to expect that levante could win the game, so I think 1-1 is going to be correct score at the end or maybe even 2-2 but I will stick with draw because the odds are just too good!
MANCHESTER, England, Jan 23 (Reuters) - Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer conceded his squad is "stretched" and made his strongest appeal yet for new signings to help his team after a miserable 2-0 home defeat to Burnley in the Premier League on Wednesday.

Now maybe both Sociedad and Getafe are probably looking to turn back time before the break due to the disease. Because since La Liga came back, they haven't won any match yet.

Sociedad is even worse, coming back to the 1-1 draw with Osasuna, then losing a 3 match against Alaves, Real Madrid and Celta Vigo.

Averaging just 1.16 goals per game this season, Sheffield United have lacked the quality in forward areas to hit high scores this term, though they can still capitalise on Villa's lacklustre away form this weekend.
Manchester City showed a "blatant disregard" to co-operating with Uefa's investigation into potential Financial Fair Play (FFP) breaches, says the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas). That is despite Cas overturning City's two-year ban from European competition, which was issued by Uefa in February. The club's fine was also cut from 30m euros (£26. Cas' written findings also say a majority of its panel found the failure to co-operate was a "severe breach".
This win leaves Palace sitting comfortably in the top 10 and the goals, from Milovjevic's free-kick and Jordan Ayew's sweeping finish, showed exactly what they are about. Hodgson may have his critics for his previous work with Liverpool and England, but when his efforts at the likes of Fulham and West Bromwich Albion are examined, it is no surprise what an excellent job he is doing at his boyhood club.
Discussing the introduction of VAR in the Premier League more generally, Wenger said: "I honestly believe it is working much better than people think because I have witnessed many bad decisions before.

A nice shiny stadium needs a nice shiny trophy, he thought. But that comes at a cost. It’ll be interesting to see how much money he gives Mourinho in the summer when he knows any players he signs are unlikely to excite the Tottenham faithful. Mourinho desperately wants to bring in players who will do what he wants - i.
It was one of the saddest days in my career. I thought: 'The Premiership is not going to elude Steve Bull, we're going to get there. Unfortunately, it didn't happen. Graham must have been as gutted as everyone else around the club when we didn't do it. If he'd have stayed at the club another year, I think he would have got us up. Six seasons later and still in the second tier, Wolves spent another £11m in pursuit of promotion and sat in the automatic promotion spots for much of the 2001-02 campaign.
