Cooper bought into Bielsa, he helped others to follow and Bielsa improved them all. Leeds 'will be good for Premier League'Can you name Leeds' managers since 2004?Embracing historyBielsa is aware of Leeds' rich history but has never leaned on it, besmirched it or used it as an excuse. His attitude has been 'mea culpa' in defeat and magnanimity in victory. Never courting the headlines himself, he wants the spotlight to reflect off his players and shine on the supporters whose welfare he felt was inextricably linked to the team they loved and the game he loves like an amateur.
Led by Del Bosque, a star-studded Real faced Valencia in Paris hoping to earn a second title in three years. Fernando Morientes gave them the lead with a header just before half-time, but it would be McManaman who scored the goal of the game. Roberto Carlos' long throw was headed to the edge of the 18-yard box by Miroslav Dukic, but McManaman returned a scissor-kick volley towards goal which gave Valencia goalkeeper Santiago Canizares no chance.
Ross County haven't been prolific winners at home and they have struggled in lots of areas, but they're not exactly up against a visiting side that has thrived on the road. Given that Hibs have won no more away games than the Staggies have home games, the home win looks slightly overpriced. Moreover, Ross County have scored slightly more goals at home than Hibernian have on the road. The hosts have also done slightly better in terms of shots against (at home compared to Hibs on the road). It's also worth noting that Hibernian's recent win away against St. Mirren was a tad fortunate, as they failed to create much, registering just three shots. When Ross County beat St. Mirren at home, they registered 14 shots.

Chelsea manager Frank Lampard says he does not know when Tammy Abraham will return to action after the striker met a specialist about his ankle injury. Abraham, 22, travelled to Barcelona for advice after pulling up during the warm-down following Tuesday's Champions League defeat by Bayern Munich. The forward initially suffered the injury against Arsenal on 22 January. I'm hoping it's not a long-term injury but I can't tell you if he'll be ready for Tuesday or Saturday," said Lampard.
Whilst they're not expected to go very far in the knockout phase of the Europa League, APOEL will be pleased to have reached it and their work in the competition so far has been fairly good.

High-voltage game this challenge between rizespor and konyaspor valid for the maximum Turkish division, in fact the 2 teams find themselves fighting for salvation after a bad start to the season. The guests so far have only obtained 3 wins against 4 draws and 5 defeats while the hosts have one more point thanks to 4 wins 2 draws and 6 defeats. The challenge is made even more electric because both teams lost in the last round so I think a draw can be well accepted by everyone at least to push the relegation spectrum away.
Lamela [one of the substitutes] - you know how many training sessions with the team? Zero. Direct from injury to recovery with physios and then direct to 20 minutes in the Champions League. There are two perspectives - an amazing group and amazing guys but another side you see how we are at the moment.
So Liverpool's 30-year wait for a league title is finally over.

To underline their attacking prowess, United have scored five times or more on four occasions in their past 16 games. They only did that three times in the first 367 matches after Sir Alex Ferguson retired.

United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said the 18-year-old might be the best finisher he has ever seen.
But even if we don't win we'll still have a good chance," said Celades, whose side travel to Ajax in their final group game.

I think it will be difficult in any case to make a global ban because the situation (in each counry) is really different," he told reporters. The health of people is much more important than any football game. The health is beyond anything and that’s why we have to look at the situation and hope that it (the coronavirus outbreak) will decrease rather than increase.
Forest Green are 11th in League Two, nine points outside the play-offs, and Dale has welcomed the EFL's financial effort to supports its clubs as "all good positive stuff". My appreciation is not purely personal at all. It is for the whole of the league, the whole of the EFL. It is a good thing," he added. They have done the right thing for all of us. Premier League Arsenal support the decision to further postpone play until 30 April, after their manager Mikel Arteta tested positive for coronavirus.

It’s sad,” said the defender. I don’t know why they would. Maybe it’s because I voiced about the racism. If you boo me because of that then you are poor people. I am sorry. This is a sign that we have a very big problem. At the end of the day I am alone in this case because I am the one who has to swallow this.
In the absence of a strong FA or EFL there may be no other option. We have stadia sales, clubs suing each other, non-payment of wages, clubs going out of business after being kicked out. Just how much more evidence is needed for the FA and EFL to see it's gone too far? FOOTBALL IS IN DISTRESS. Act for our pyramid or leave.

Ibrahimovic’s agent Mino Raiola has meet with Milan officials to orchestrate a move that would see the former player return to club that he represented between 2010 and 2012, scoring 56 goals in 85 games and lifting the Serie A title in 2011. It’s believed that an 18 month contract is on the table for the 38-year-old, but his wage expectations could be hurdle to overcome given that Milan are currently serving a ban from European competition due to Financial Fair Play breaches.

Spain seem to have the edge with world number one Rafael Nadal and in-form Roberto Bautista Agut. Australia had their problems against Great Britain in the quarter final. Spain will have Nadal in their doubles team if required and tips the balance in favour of Spain. Australia are the host nations for this ATP Cup and a win would be a welcome boost at a difficult time for the country.
Few dates on the global sporting calendar are as keenly-anticipated as the Augusta National showpiece, but organisers moved swiftly to postpone golf's opening major, which was due to be played between April 9-12, throwing the elite championship golf schedule into a state of flux.

From an early age he developed a love for football but curiously was the only member of his family apart from an older brother who did. And his obsession with the importance of leadership is shown by his passion for learning everything he can about the history of the Roman Empire. From nothing appeared the most powerful empire on the earth. The power and the conquest of this empire left its mark all over the world and led to the creation of the greatest architects and the wisest teachers," he says.

These two played two games back in 2014 and 2015 when they were together in Division 3. Both games won visitor 1-0. So they always play hard games with small number of goals. Times has change and we should see interesting game today. Both teams still without official games and both will try to try all players they have. So I expect to see here big numbers when we are talking about players. I suppose that manager s will satisfy with draw here. Odds are to good to miss if you ask me. So draw is my pick here. Good luck
By Simon Evans April 7 (Reuters) - Greg Clarke, the chairman of England's Football Association, has warned that clubs across the country could vanish as their finances collapse under the economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic. Clubs and the players union, the Professional Footballers Association (PFA), have been unable so far to reach an agreement on wage cuts and deferrals to help clubs during the suspension of action.

Wales and Bale will have to wait an extra year for their next taste of a major competition, with Euro 2020 now taking place in June 2021 as a result of the coronavirus. We are looking to do just as well if not better," said Bale. I think the extra year will help. We have a young team and the manager, Ryan Giggs, hasn't been in too long. If anything it will help. Going into Euro 2016 everyone looked at us and thought we were a small country but we always believed in ourselves, had a game plan and we had the biggest team spirit of any team I've ever been in or known.
The Doncaster-born player added: "I knew after a month [of Mourinho joining] I was never going to play. It was difficult going out to train knowing I wasn't going to play. It's not worked out, but full respect to him and what he's doing at the club. He took over with the club 12 points adrift of Chelsea [now in fourth place] and now it's four. I have to be honest, I thought I would continue playing.
However, as the EFL made clear, this sanction is "subject to appeal", which is due to take place on 31 July, and Wigan have appointed leading barrister, David Phillips QC. The Latics were placed in administration on 1 July, just weeks after the club changed Hong Kong-based owners. The argument is no-one - neither at Wigan nor the EFL - could have known what Au Yeung Wai Kay was going to do and therefore the punishment should be withdrawn.
A second working group of representatives from UEFA, leagues, clubs and players will be set up to study the economic and financial impact of the coronavirus outbreak.
