We have gone in three months from being closer to the relegation zone, which was never really a problem, to be being one point behind the top four. An amazing effort from everyone. We have earned the right to fight for it. Some say it's impossible but we are ready to fight. Despite Chelsea's slump in form, Mourinho said Frank Lampard's team are favourites to finish fourth, and that his return to Stamford Bridge, where he delivered three Premier League titles in two stints as manager, is nothing special.
Instead he would work with Pochettino and the rest of the recruitment staff to identify gaps in the market, players with value, and high upside. Players like Toby Alderweireld, Christian Eriksen, Dele Alli and others. Give young players like Alli and Harry Kane a chance and build from there. It was a structure that led to regular Champions League football, it took them all the way to the final, in many ways a truly remarkable feat when you consider that five years before reaching that showpiece they had to watch Tim Sherwood saluting Emmanuel Adebayor.
A left-back may be a good idea but then Adam Masina and Kiko Femenia have both looked tremendous under the new manager. On that note, there was a Ricardo Rodriguez rumour at the beginning of the window; that was exciting. An attacking left-back who can take a set piece, what's not to like? But in truth, our best signings have often been guys we'd never heard of. We're quite good at those. Andre Gray has got a lot about him but his confidence looks shot and he needs a move, probably to a club who will play him as one of a pair up front.

England's Premier League, the richest soccer league in the world, had stood almost alone in not suspending the season, but at an emergency meeting it was decided that the fixtures would stop until April 4 at the earliest. The Football League and Women's Super League are also suspended until April 3 while England's friendly internationals against Italy and Denmark have been postponed.
The hosts are sitting on a play-off place for promotion at this moment on 7th place, they have lost just 2 games all season long in the league and are undefeated for a couple of rounds as well, problem being too many draws as they drew 9 of their 17 league games, but today not only they should win but they should do it in style as I will explain on bellow.
Here I feel that the away team should have at least as good a chance of winning this match as the home team. I'll go for the visitors to win With Ah+0.25. In this match I will go heavily into the away team as they are in fine form and have a completely injury free squad. It is more than you can say about the home team that struggles both with the form but also with the injuries. I believe in a match picture where the away team will lead the game from the start and where we will see a fairly early decision.
But the PFA is urging other clubs to involve the union and for a collective approach to be taken. There are also understood to be reservations from other clubs who feel they have been more careful with their finances and do not want to be forced into a generic agreement. Wednesday's meeting will discuss cash flow data from clubs and consider any updates issued by Fifa and Uefa, the world and European governing bodies, who are also set to meet earlier on Wednesday.
Brighton and Hove Albion are 15th in the Premier League, two places and five points behind opponents Crystal Palace. This is regarded as a Derby match even though there is a fair distance between the two clubs. The fans are going to be really up for this game and the players need to be too. Brighton could do with a win to put more points between them and the relegation zone.
While the hosts have been strong at the start and had a dip, almost the exact opposite has been happening for Northampton Town. The Cobblers come into this match having scored two or more goals in each of their last six matches and, with that sort of scoring record, it should not be too surprising to learn that they are undefeated in each of those six games.
Fortuna Sittard vs Groningen predictions for Saturday's match in the Eredivisie. Groningen are in great form and have outplayed their hosts so far this season but Fortuna Sittard have proven a tough nut to crack in their own backyard this season. Read on for all our free predictions and betting tips.
Looking at this two teams last performance we can say that this prediction is a very sure prediction as the home team and the away team they have not yet recorded an over of 3.5 total goals in their last 3 games and so this gives us a very good reason for us to trust this bet
This night will be played few games from the tournament for Copa Libertadores at South America. At this one rivals will be the teams of Atletico Tucuman which is from Argentina and The Strongest which is from Bolivia. As you probably know the difference at the football at these 2 countries is too large.
In Germany, Arminia Bielefeld and Darmstadt 98 are expected to meet each other for Bundesliga match which will be held at Schuco Arena, Bielefeld city. In the table, Bielefeld takes position 1 with 61 points after playing 31 matches while Darmstadt takes position 5 with 46 points after playing 31 matches.
Basel no longer holds the dominant position in the village of Cau Giay as it was 3 years ago. In the last two seasons, Basel has finished after Young Boys. This season, not only did the Boys lose their position, Marcel Koller's teachers and students also stood under St. Gallen. In terms of scores, they are inferior to 2 teams ranked 5 and 8 points, respectively.
Nancy are the second best home team in the league and the only team in the league without a home defeat so far this season. They have also kept a clean sheet in 4 of the last 6 games at home. However, in only 1 home game this season, they scored more than 2 goals.
The Clarets made sure Leicester paid full price for this miss when Ashley Westwood slotted home his first goal at Turf Moor after Jonny Evans could only partially clear Charlie Taylor's low cross. The win puts Burnley five points clear of third-bottom Aston Villa. Could Pope snare the England number one shirt? A fine game from Pope was key to Burnley getting the three points today and on a more personal level reminds Gareth Southgate of his qualities ahead of Euro 2020.
His salary at the moment can be as high as £200,000 a week, but that depends on both the player and Arsenal hitting all their targets, something that will not happen as the club sit well outside the Champions League places. Paper Round’s view: Now may not be the worst time to move Aubameyang on. Of course he is the club’s best striker, and probably the best player in the team, but at 30 he is close to or past his peak.
This Chelsea side probably won’t win the whole thing, but they could provide a stern test to any opponent they draw. MAN OF THE MATCH Willian (Chelsea): After a couple of years on the naughty step with many Chelsea fans, Willian continues to impress under Lampard. He was a direct and inventive threat on both wings, and helped set up the opener with his assist for Tammy Abraham.
These two met twice at Derby U23 this season, first in this cup competition when Wolves produced a shock and won the game with 2-1 in the end and second game was in Premier League 2 when Wolves also scored 2 goals but that time got away with just one point as it ended 2-2 in the end but both those games ended easily with over 2.5 goals scored in them.

Celtic are flying and with a 12-point lead in the title race it feels like a huge task for Rangers to reel them in from here. Man of the match - Odsonne EdouardThe young French striker is a class act and seems to thrive alongside Griffiths. Celtic fans will be desperate to retain him beyond the summer as he has everything. His goal return is strong but it's Edouard's ability to be calm, to bring others into play that's equally impressive.

Move on. I know he is a mentally strong person and goalkeeper. How you rated the players at WembleyChelsea book final place Media playback is not supported on this device The time has come to replace De Gea with Henderson - Shearer De Gea's form has been questioned since the resumption, with former captain Roy Keane saying he was "sick to death" of the Spain keeper after an error against Tottenham last month.
Aubameyang could have further extended his tally for the season but his cross-come-shot landed on top of the crossbar. Just when it looked like the game was coming to a subdued close Arsenal scored twice more for a thumping win - Ozil's effort squirming through Dubravka's hands - following a move that involved 35 passes and all 11 players touching the ball - and Lacazette added gloss to the scoreline.
Lionel Messi made his first ever appearance in Naples on Tuesday, playing in Barcelona's 1-1 draw with Napoli in the Champions League. But more striking than the Argentina legend's presence, in a stadium where his compatriot Diego Maradona is a club hero, were the masked fans in the stands, taking precautions against coronavirus. More than 300 people have been infected in Italy, 12 of whom have died.
The defence of the German champions should be too good for Red Star and a clean sheet is also likely for the visitors. As a result, we’ve predicted a 4-0 win for Bayern Munich, keeping in line with their average amount of goals per game during a commanding Champions League campaign so far.
We’re confident that under 2.5 goals will be produced in Saturday’s match and we have predicted a final scoreline between the pair of 0-0. The hosts have been almost as poor at home as their guests have on the road, with Tondela securing 5pts in 7 home games and Moreirense picking up 3pts from their eight matches on the road. Both teams head into the match in poor form and goals have been an issue for both clubs as Todnela have failed to score in three of their last six matches and Moreirense have failed to score in their last two away games.
Given Rennes' poor away form and the great performance from Nîmes in midweek, we're backing this one to finish level. There's no doubt that Rennes are the better side here but they have had their fair share of slip-ups on the road recently and given the hosts' recent boost we feel they could give them a challenge here. The Crocodiles' defence is too poor for us to expect them to win here but we're backing them to get the draw in this one. With both sides' defences in tatters recently we're going to back this to finish 1-1.
However, Ross County has conceded huge amounts in recent weeks, letting in 14 goals in their last five games- 2.8 on average. Moreover, they've also scored an average of 1.2 goals in their last five, failing to do so just once.
Home squad is in the position to take points in the duel against direct rival, and push forward to the secure place near the upper part of the table. They are already six points away from Mainz and have nice position to attack rival, that should be under the pressure here.
Or perhaps they might be forced to sell one of their star assets – Harry Kane? – to raise funds for other areas.

Very funny to see the average goals for these two home and away, it's exactly the same 13 scored and 23 conceded in 25 matches. Having said that we can see clear that we will have a very balanced and tight match at Dusseldorf. Last time we saw these two playing at Dusseldorf was way back in 2017 in a club friendly so that does not really count. In the first round this season at Paderborn's, we had a home win 2 x 0. This match will be a low scoring match and it will probably end in a draw 1 x 1
Well 7 points from 9 max for the guests in their 3 games after the restart is not really a bad record as they even defeated the current league leaders from FC Porto with 2-1 at home and also won the next round with 3-1 away from home at Famalicao and had a chance to claim 4th place if they won last round at home with Braga but they only drew the game 0-0 in the end. This while earlier this season they could not beat Moreirense at home in a game which saw 6 goals shared between the two sides in an equal 3-3 draw.
The match between Ajax and Valencia is a good mach from this ended mach in this group Champion league Europa where we look see a best soccer match with more goals what be a best chance for our pick we play at the mach look see more goals in full total time this much. We will play the best pick for this mach pick over from 3.25 goals what be best chance for us. We will can look this if we see at the mach minimal four goals what be a best chance for us get a win play this pick. Happy and Joy!

Five goals in two games. Erling cannot be stopped," said a beaming Dortmund coach Lucien Favre. He constantly wants to train, to play. He is extremely committed. It is fantastic for a coach to have a player like that. BAYERN RUN Champions Bayern Munich equalled the best start to a year (VfB Stuttgart 1991) with two wins and a 9-0 goal record following their 5-0 demolition of Schalke 04.
Villa soon earned another dangerous set piece and Hourihane again assumed responsibility, firing the ball into the heart of the penalty area where Anwar El Ghazi arrived to knock the ball into the roof of the net from close range in the 36th. El Ghazi stuck the ball into the net again later in the half but his effort was ruled offside, while Newcastle's only chance in an unambitious 45 minutes was a Federico Fernandez header which was well saved by Tom Heaton.
Neither team approach this match in glittering form but we're backing Lyon to get the three points in this one. Nice have been awful away from home while the hosts have been considerably better in front of their own fans since the arrival of García. We see both teams scoring in this match though as that market has won in four of Lyon's last five games and in three of Nice's last five. Nice have also scored five goals in their last three games so we can see the visitors getting on the scoresheet in this one. Ultimately though we're backing it to end 2-1 to the home side.
I think it's great for Phil to have lots of options and it's only going to make us all fight harder for that shirt. Our drive is to win for this country and we're in a great place now and I think we've got a lot of youth and strength in depth in our squad now to compete over the next two years. Nobbs was speaking at UEFA's 500 Days to Go launch event at Wembley, marking the official countdown to next summer's showpiece.
