I think he knew he needed to put a bit of loyalty aside, be ruthless and say: 'You're not good enough to get us to the next level. He put his money into Alisson and he has been quite sensational. A full-back dynasty is born Liverpool 2-0 Fulham - 11 November 2018While Liverpool broke world records for Alisson and Van Dijk, one of the key components of their triumphs has been their full-backs, who cost a combined £8m.
Heading to this game, Club Brugge will as well hope to go for the kill after the draw at home. They have the form to give them the confidence and they will look at this as a winnable tie. Brugge have no loss in their last 10 matches, winning five and drawing as many. They haven’t scored as many goals as United have but they have done just enough to get results they need; in the last five matches they have won three and kept two clean sheets.
The point takes Barcelona back to the top of the table above Real Madrid - who beat Getafe 3-0 earlier on Saturday - on goal difference. Espanyol, who have now failed to win a La Liga derby against Barcelona in their past 21 attempts, were much improved from recent weeks in their first game under Abelardo, who is their third manager of the season. They deservedly led at the break but Barcelona appeared to be cruising towards victory when Suarez poked home Jordi Alba's cross and then crossed for Vidal to head home.

De Bruyne insisted that City’s gameplan in their fine 3-1 victory at Old Trafford in midweek, where Guardiola elected to not field a recognised striker, took just 15 minutes to prepare. From none to two up front for the first time in almost 18 months at Villa Park, with even more success. Surely this took some planning? Even with only one central defender in the pitch, City never looked troubled, with their relentless attacks too hot too handle.

For the home team, this season is not the best and they started with two losses. They play weak and the difference between Belshina and other teams is visible. The team from the first league is struggling hard against the extra class teams of Belarus. The visitors also started this season with two losses. However, I think that Gorodeya is a better team and the quality of the squad should give them three points in this clash. I don't think that Belshina will be able to beat the visitors and it should be the third loss in a row for the home team.
Ludogorets have been undefeated in their last eight matches, including their last four away games, and did not concede any goal in three of their last six outings, while Ludogorets have kept two clean sheets and failed to score in two of their last six matches and we are expecting another low-scoring ninety minutes on Thursday

City were majestic in the first half of the first-leg clash, running into a 3-0 lead before half-time but eased off in the second half, with United eventually scoring a consolation goal through Marcus Rashford. Guardiola believes that it was unrealistic to expect his team to win by a more comprehensive margin, despite the comprehensiveness of their first-half performance.
It looks to me that FC Lorient will most probably have the majority of the possession and should be able to turn a few of their chances into goals. In contrast, Le Mans FC are also probably going to find it difficult to get shooting opportunities but I do think that it’s more than likely that they will be hitting back at some stage. Therefore, I am anticipating a pretty comfortable 3-1 victory for FC Lorient by the time that the referee blows the final whistle
Roma lost their great form since the beginning of the season, they have lost 4 of their last 7 games played so far this year, they won just one of their last seven games played already in all competitions. Their disappointing outing against Sassuolo 2-4, which saw them drop from the first 4 in the league, position Atalanta took over. On their own pitch the have been on a record of one win in their last 5 games played.
Middlesbrough manager Jonathan Woodgate told BBC Tees:"If Patrick Roberts stays on the pitch we win the game because he's going to be a great player for us. But I've got no complaints for Paddy McNair, he struck his penalty well and the keeper made a great save.

Ancelotti was left infuriated after a decision by the Video Assistant Referee to disallow a late Everton winner and received his marching orders from referee Chris Kavanagh for protesting after the final whistle. Having calmed down later, the 60-year-old told reporters it was a "difficult" decision for the referee, before joking that it was not the first time he had been sent off and would not be the last.
It was the Lionesses' seventh defeat out of 11 under Phil Neville since England exited the 2019 World Cup at the semi-final stages. England were hoping to build on their 1-0 win over Japan on Sunday and came close to taking the lead twice in the first half. Ellen White saw an effort drift over the bar in ther 14th minute while Nikita Parris flashed a ball across goal which nobody pounced on.
Uefa would, of course, argue this case is very different to one involving Turkish football more than a decade ago. However, will it be prepared to take the risk of a defeat that would have major ramifications?This case has been hugely damaging for City. But there is real danger here for Uefa too, especially at a time when the grip of European football's governing body on the club game is under mounting strain.

Jenas: "I was 19 in this game and had just moved to Newcastle. Having moved from Forest, did I understand how big this game was? Probably not. They probably protected me a bit. But as soon as I stepped out of that tunnel, I knew how big that game was. The roar you get when you come out for that game is unbelievable. For it to be my first game and be on the winning side and play well, it all worked out.
Both teams are in good form, both are top sides in UAE this start of the season and it comes as no surprise that they made it all the way to the final of this cup competition, while they met just a few weeks ago on neutral venue in the other cup competition a game which was 0-0 at half-time but saw 3 goals in the second half with Shabab winning it with 2-1 in the end, and Negredo scoring the only goal for Al Nasr as he is the main attraction of Al Nasr.
The decision also disregards the millions of pounds invested and countless hours expended collectively by clubs, and so has critical financial implications. In writing this joint letter, we recognise that the decision to expunge results for the 2019-20 season still pends official ratification from the FA Council. However, we believe it is unacceptable that such a decision has been handed down to us in this manner.

Aston Villa will host Newcastle United for this fixture of the league. Both sides are not very good teams in this league. True, Newcastle Utd have better position in the table.

Chesterfield certainly needed that small bump in form as they come into this match still in the relegation places and fearful that they are yet to hit rock bottom. However, the 15 points they have accomplished on their travels is a decent return and shows that they are more than capable of going to an opponents own turf and claiming the points.

These are two sides who are both struggling for results, with the pair each in the bottom six in the form table across the last eight games. The pair have lost their winning edge, as Bristol City have lost five of their last six league games (W1), as many as in their previous 25 combined (W10 D10 L5). Wigan have drawn as many games as they’ve won at home this term – four. With their last three at home finishing 1-1, we’re backing a repeat in this clash.

For all of these top-flight sides playing lower-division teams, it is a case of picking a team that you think is capable of beating the opposition. That's different to a lot of Premier League games, because half the time you are only thinking about stopping the opposition. If you are going out to win, then you pick your strongest side. For various reasons, that is not going to happen this weekend, so the challenge is to get the balance right between resting players and winning the tie.
