There wasn't much in that at all, but that is probably the correct call. He was a hair beyond the last man! Chalked off! 60’ Big chance for Benzema!

Lampard was asked at a news conference when a decision could be expected. Very soon, I believe. Days, I think," he replied. I haven't heard any more, so I would wait and reserve judgement (on Chelsea's plans for January) until we get the judgement and see where we want to go from there. Lampard has guided a youthful Chelsea side to fourth in the Premier League this season.

West Brom have been very good at times this season and it leads us to believe that this run will end sooner rather than later. Now is as good a time as any for that to happen with the Baggies coming off the back of an FA Cup win at West Ham. While Cardiff is a tough trip to make, the Bluebirds struggle to kill off teams. This is reflected in their patchy record. Back West Brom draw no bet.
It seemed appropriate to tell him that, just as I had said before, I would step aside if he decided to return. He said that seemed perfect but he told me that he no longer wanted me.

Messi is the best in the world today," said Insigne. But for us Neapolitans, Maradona is everything and I don't want to compare them. Maradona is sacred. Napoli have returned to form in recent weeks following a disappointing start to the season that led to the sacking of Carlo Ancelotti and have won their last three games, with Gattuso in a bullish mood ahead of Tuesday's match. I want to see a team that knows how to battle," he said.
Leicester managed another three, with the added bonus of Villa’s incompetence allowing Jamie Vardy to smash his way back into form as he helped himself to a couple, and perhaps set the Leicester ship right as they look to qualify for the Champions League.

The 1974 World Cup - what do you think of? West Germany, total football, Johan Cruyff, Franz Beckenbauer? No? Perhaps just one team remaining unbeaten during the tournament, only to be knocked out in the first round having conceded just a single goal?Scotland were the only team from the British Isles to make it. What's more, it was the first time they had qualified since 1958. The official World Cup song was called Easy, Easy - but it wasn't conceit or hubris that was their downfall, it was goal difference.
Luton Town have failed to score in their last two league games. Luton Town have lost six of their last seven league fixtures. Sheffield Wednesday have drawn their last two games.

Rovers, who missed the chance to narrow a six-point gap to the play-off places, showed little attacking quality and their best opening saw Sam Gallagher denied by Marek Rodak late on.

Thank you, Sepp Blatter. Thank you, Michel Platini. Thank you, Qatar 2022. Good job you couldn’t get those artificial clouds working.

Belshina, on the other side is poor team and they are one of the biggest favorites for relegation this season and for second league. Yes, home team will win this easy.
The Senegal forward - signed from Southampton for £34m in June 2016 - has now hit 20 club goals for the third successive season, having scored against Aston Villa on Sunday.
