He could still cost around £80 million despite currently running down his deal. Paper Round’s view: Sane has the remaining few months of the season to prove his fitness. If he does that, he will likely be included in Germany’s squad for Euro 2020. An impressive tournament there could attract attention from some of Europe’s biggest clubs, and might help Manchester City raise a decent amount for him instead of losing him for nothing in the summer of 2021.
It could get even worse for Napoli given their dire points tally. They have picked up 21 points in 16 matches in Serie A this season: their worst points tally at this stage since 2000/01 when they were relegated at the end of the season. So much for their title challenge. Now they need a huge turnaround just to make fourth.
This is a crisis and if anybody takes benefit, for me it would be a big surprise. I don't think the football industry will do this. It looks complex but it's one player, two teams and changing the date. I trust in the goodwill of people and relationships that we can make (it happen). At Leeds United this year, we always had young players around the team. The fans are proud of the club's history with academy players.
Beijing Renhe and Jiangsu Suning will face each other in the upcoming match in the Super League in China. Beijing Renhe this season have the following results: 3W, 4D and 20L. Meanwhile Jiangsu Suning have 12W, 8D and 7L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Well this is going to be one very interesting match for sure but I give the upper hand here to Lech Poznan because they are the squad with more quality and experience for sure. This is important match for that 3rd and 2nd spot. So far at the second is Piast with 54 pts while Lech Poznan is at the 3rd with 53 pts and Slask Wroclaw are right behind them at the 4th with only 1 point less ( 52 ) , so you can see why is this an important match for Lech Poznan who at the previous round did a mistake and cannot afford to do that again.

These odds are fantastic. Simple as that. Both teams had two defeats after two rounds played. I must say here that we closely watch Belarus league now as they are the only league that is going on in Europe right now. Belshina is newcomer in this elite league. Last season they were top team in Division 1 and for sure they have quality. They need time to adjust on much better teams and they will play much better for sure. Expect open game from both teams and expect to see big fight. Over 2.5 goals is my bet! Good luck!
While the hosts have been looking very sturdy at home, Hamburg have struggled to hit their stride on the road this season. They started the campaign by winning each of their first two traveling matches, but they title hopefuls have since gone massively off the boil on their travels.
The striker has scored four goals in eight appearances since joining United on loan in January. The Daily Mail report that he has been offered a lucrative two-year contract extension by Shanghai, but would favour staying at United, who are prepared to turn his loan into a permanent deal. Paper Round’s view: This appears to be a no-brainer for Ighalo, who is a United fan and has expressed his joy at being able to play for the club.
That [statement] wasn't for us," she said post-match. That was for fans, for the media, for sponsors, because that all sounded pretty similar to what we've heard before. You want to talk about hostility? Every negotiation we've had, those undertones are in there, that we're lesser - every mediation that we had, every time we meet with them and obviously the reason that we filed this lawsuit.
I've loved being here," she continued. Coming here with the facilities and environment, and the people I'd be playing with, it's not something everybody gets the opportunity to do. Her displays for the Citizens have earned her a new "multi-year" contract, which manager Nick Cushing described as an "imperative" deal for the club. They have also led to senior England action for the Lionesses' former Under-17 captain, with her debut coming in a friendly away at Portugal in October.
It was a sort of homecoming for a man who had stood on the Kop watching Bill Shankly's Liverpool during his days as a French teacher at the city's Alsop Comprehensive School 30 years earlier. There were some inside the club who questioned how it would work even on the day he arrived. The answer was simple: it didn't. The arranged marriage did not last. Evans left in November. Houllier's pursuit of perfection was all-consuming - so much so that he almost paid with his life.

Adelaide have found wins against Newcastle Jets, Brisbane Roar and Central Coast in the past three weeks and will be much more confident in welcoming Victory to Coopers Stadium. They are also the third-highest scorers in the league, boasting nine goals from five different sources as the whole team looks dangerous in front of goal.
Two teams with similar quality and similar ambitions for the club. Budejovice are currently at the 9th place with 36 point while Olomouc below them with three points less and as there are only 4 rounds until the end I expect one though match without many chances where both teams will settle in for a draw as this is a direct match for that Europa League group and with Bohemians behind them I could happen that easily one of this team could play at that relegation match so I think they will take precautions and will not force anything that is not needed.

All things considered, backing both nets to be hit simply has to be the way to play here and is something we're happy to do with maximum confidence. The last 3 matches between the two have seen goals at both ends and featured a big average of 4.66 goals per game and although we don't think this meeting will be quite as high scoring, we do think both will notch in a 1-1 draw; leaving it all to play for in the second leg.
Boavista have lost four of their last six matches and had a poor end to 2019, while Famalicao ended the year with a cup win and continue to surprise the pundits, and fans alike, by picking up positive results on a regular basis. Boavista have only won two of their eight home games in the league this season, drawing four times and losing twice, while Famalicao have won three and drawn two of their eight away games.
Juventus have a tougher game than expected this weekend but it's one that they can win. They are yet to lose at home in the league this season, failing to score twice on just one occasion. Inter's form in Serie A has slipped a bit of late and another loss here would seriously damage their title hopes. Juventus can get the home win here to return to the top of Serie A.
Away from home, Zenit have picked up just one point. They drew 1-1 with Lyon, while they were beaten 2-1 by Leipzig. Their defensive performances on each of those occasions don't exactly point towards them having it all their own way on Tuesday.
Two-nil winners of the reverse fixture earlier in the campaign, Sheffield United are unbeaten in their last six home matches, winning five of those fixtures. The last three victories there have been particularly impressive with Spurs, Wolves, and Chelsea all falling victim to their fortress powers. Chris Wilder's side will be keen to bounce back from the blow of a midweek defeat at Leicester.
But they have badly missed influential players such as talisman Antoine Griezmann, midfielder Rodri and stalwart defenders Juanfran, Diego Godin, Lucas Hernandez and Filipe Luis who all departed the club last year. In the last decade we have competed in many finals, we have won nine trophies and consolidated ourselves among the greatest teams in Europe," added Gil Marin.
Defender Yerry Mina and winger Theo Walcott are also sidelined but Andre Gomes is available. Liverpool have no new injury concerns, with goalkeeper Alisson fit after a hip problem. Forward Mohamed Salah and full-back Andy Robertson are expected to feature after overcoming fitness concerns. When can Liverpool win the league? Can you name every club's top scorer?MOTD COMMENTATOR'S NOTES@Guymowbray: The 236th Merseyside derby will be the strangest one ever played.
The latest match of the FA Cup fourth round was the Vitality match between Bournemouth and Arsenal. With better squad quality, the Gunners are expected to have more chances to win tickets. Bournemouth's form is not going well, they have lost 3 of the last 5 matches. The home field also does not give them favorable results, as they only won 2/5 wins when they recently welcomed rivals. In the opposite direction, Arsenal are unbeaten in the last 5 games under the guidance of Coach Arteta. Winning a point on Chelsea's pitch in the middle of the week will be a big boost for the Gunners. Away from home Arsenal are unbeaten, but they are 5 draws.
Oxlade-Chamberlain, who also came close in the first half with a deflected shot, fired the home side ahead in the 47th minute when he cut inside and left McCarthy wrong-footed with a fine low drive from 18 metres. Henderson doubled the lead on the hour when he drove the ball into the roof of the net from 10 metres out thanks to some good work by Roberto Firmino, who broke down the left flank and squared the ball back to his skipper.
It's not a penalty' - reactionKilmarnock manager Alex Dyer: "The team performance was very good in periods. We start very well, go two goals up and then we panic for the last 15 minutes of the first half and carry it on in the second. But, when it goes back to 2-2, we started playing again. I'm very disappointed.
Antonio Conte's Inter were denied a seventh-minute opener after Lukaku drew a good save from Antonio Mirante. Inter's Marcelo Brozovic then blazed an attempt over following Mirante's scuffed clearance shortly before half-time, while Mirante - in for Roma's injured Pau Lopez - frustrated Inter further after the interval. Serie A clubs pledge to combat racist abuse in ItalyEngland manager Gareth Southgate was in attendance, alongside assistant Steve Holland, as Roma's Manchester United loanee Smalling stuck tight to former Old Trafford team-mate Lukaku throughout in what was an assured display.
That much was shown when France did move on, to Hull in 2003. Before my debut against Kidderminster our secretary brought me a letter in," France says. It was from Chris, wishing me all the best and saying he knew this day would come. He'd encouraged me to believe that it would happen. Why Chris Wilder and Sheffield United are confounding predictions France scored on his debut and never looked back.
Yeelen Olympique will host USC Kita for this fixture of the league. Hosts probably are favorites in this game. Yeelen have advantage at home stadium. Also, Yeelen have a more offensive team. Yeah, Yeelen are undefeated in their last 5 matches. True, they played against more weak rivals. So, I expect, the hosts will try to dominate on the home field. However, this will not be an easy job. Also, we have USC Kita who's is very average team in this season. Kita have a poor results in the last matches. Nevertheless, they have the motivation to break the poor series. My pick - USC Kita to win.
City secured a third straight League Cup and fifth in the last seven seasons with a 2-1 victory over Aston Villa at Wembley when they did enough to suppress battling opponents who did well to stay in the contest in a one-sided first half. The result, however, had an air of inevitability about it as soon as City took a 2-0 lead, with goals from Sergio Aguero and Spaniard Rodri after half an hour, and not just because they were bossing the encounter.
Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson frequently change games with their assists, but they can play as extra wingers in the knowledge Van Dijk is covering behind. Video - Klopp – ‘Messi is the best player I’ve ever seen, but Van Dijk should have won the Ballon d’Or’01:11 The 28-year-old has started every game of an extraordinary campaign that has seen Liverpool leak just 21 goals, four fewer than their closest challengers.
Given the developing situation locally and internationally, it is incumbent on the football authorities to speak with one voice in providing guidance and reassurance to stakeholders. The NBA has also asked its players to avoid taking items to autograph but allowed them to fist-bump with fans instead of high-fiving them.
I know how much Joe, and all the lads, love playing for Wales but for someone who has given so much it would have been a real disappointment so I'm especially pleased for him. Joe Allen has won 56 caps for Wales since his debut in 2009 against EstoniaFor now, Wales and Giggs' European dream is on hold as the country continues to remain on lockdown to slow the spread of coronavirus. To keep entertained the Wales boss says he has been watching "sports channels and replays of old games".
Alex Neil's side had chances to double their advantage before the break, the best of which saw Sean Maguire's header tipped away by David Marshall. Straight after the restart, Preston did make it 2-0 with another slick passing move, this time the impressive Johnson finishing smartly into the corner after Barkhuizen found him in the box. The Latics, who are the division's lowest scorers, threatened an unlikely comeback when Chey Dunkley capitalised on some poor defending to poke the ball in from close range.

After the first 3 matches, Incheon United got only 2 draws and 1 defeat, thus ranking 10th among the 12 teams participating in the Korean league. At this moment, coach Lim Wan-SEOP's team is still searching hard for the first victory of the 2020 season.
It will either galvanise the team or the new players will take too long to gel. You can then be saddled with those players in the Championship, which is why I can't see Eddie Howe seriously pursuing anyone. That said, a player who would improve Bournemouth is Liverpool's Adam Lallana - the midfielder was on the Cherries' books as a boy until he left for Southampton. Given our current plight, it needs to be all hands on deck.
Last season's Champions League semi-finalists Ajax crashed out of this season's Europa League as Getafe wrapped up a 3-2 aggregate win in Amsterdam. Getafe stretched their aggregate lead through Jaime Mata in the fifth minute and although the hosts came back to lead on the night thanks to goals from Danilo and Carel Eiting, the Spaniards held on to record a famous victory.
The Red Devils began the day in 10th, 10 points below fourth-placed Chelsea having failed to win two league wins in a row this season. Former United striker Solskjaer, who took caretaker charge of the team almost a year ago, also faced questions about his future in the build-up after former Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino was again linked with the Old Trafford club. Solskjaer's side were awful in the opening half, going behind to John Fleck's opener before Lys Mousset doubled the lead shortly after the break.

Meanwhile A Klagenfurt have 11W, 7D and 2L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Hobro won 3-1 away at Esbjerg a couple of days ago coming even from 1-0 behind from early in the first half and the score was indeed 1-0 at half-time for Esbjerg but in the second half Hobro was more brave and scored 3 goals in a row against a rather poor Esbjerg defense which has been so low in the league standings mainly due to poor defending this season, and they are now 5 points away from Hobro the 3rd placed club in this group while direct relegation is very likely for them if they do not win here.
Like their hosts, Stoke City also claimed two wins from their hectic three-game festive week, though they did so in a less controlled, even kamikaze fashion, scoring eight goals and conceding five in the process.
