He has fantastic statistics but his points average in the starting line-up; no other winger has worse,” he added. Some of the above are valid criticisms. However, to this observer's eye it is incumbent on a manager to construct a system that accommodates the weaknesses of a team's best and most productive attacking threat.
Chelsea just don't have a defence good enough to absorb pressure, and now trail though City haven't yet got going. Oh! Kepa loses concentration and bungles a clearance to Aguero who does the keeper with his eyes and lamps a shot that cannons the bar! Silva then tries to work an angle for Mahrez, but his first touch is heavy and the chance goes.

Had I done so, I would have objected to language that did not reflect my personal admiration for our women's players or our values as an organization. The language prompted an on-field protest by players, who wore their warmup jerseys inside out to obscure the U. S.

To an extent, injuries can be blamed for the forwards' lack of goals, and last weekend's loss at Levante provided another major setback as Hazard - in just his second game since returning from a three-month absence - limped off with a fractured ankle that is likely to keep him out for the rest of the season. In stark contrast to the Real team of Zidane's previous managerial stint, which often struggled to play cohesive football but never lacked for goalscoring prowess - largely thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo - the current side are more than capable of knitting together pretty passing patterns but regularly fail to be effective where it matters the most.
So how do we keep players positive and focused?, he said. Some have switched off because they think the season's going to end. Others think 'we're just going to be playing the season out' (if it resumes) or 'we're not going to win anything anyway'. At the moment my role's more about psychology than fitness," he said. Players like routine and having an end game. Now they're stuck at home and don't know what's happening.

Armenia seriously decided this season to break into the main league of German football. The break did not give them the opportunity to prove it now, but now we must continue to bend our line. There are only two defeats in 25 games, and as a result, first place at the moment, six points ahead of second place, you can feel confident, but you can’t relax, and teams such as Osnabruck must be beaten at the same gate. The guests won the last time back in December, and their last home match lost to Vegan 26. I have not the slightest doubt that Arminius won, the kef is small, but loyal, you can take it for an express train.
We are taking this opportunity to develop ourselves,” Hayes told BBC Radio 5 live. But I’m finding it really hard to do that with a baby around my ankles. I snuck an hour to watch Bielsa on YouTube, I love that guy. I watched a video of him talking about tactics and formations against Brazil and I absolutely loved it. I had to hide in the cupboard for a bit so my son was not cognisant of where I was.

When last in action at this venue, Girona were beaten, but we shouldn't read too much into that. Prior to that defeat, they'd won three on the bounce at home, beating a top six side in the process. They'll fancy themselves to do the business against an Extremadura side that is no stranger to struggling on the road.
After an uneventful first half, Fleck finished off a sumptuous move - started by Chris Basham's back-heel after John Lundstram's quality delivery - to give the hosts the lead. The Scotland midfielder doubled the lead with a composed finish following David McGoldrick's clever hook before Villa missed a penalty awarded following a VAR check for a John Egan handball. However, Jack Grealish's effort cannoned off the bar as Villa sank to a 10th Premier League defeat of the season.
But why does it matter so much?Lisbon Lions blaze a trailThe benchmark was set by Celtic's all-conquering Lisbon Lions. When Jock Stein's men became the first British club to lift the European Cup in 1967, they had already embarked on an unparalleled domestic feat. From 1966-74, Celtic won nine consecutive top-flight championships and left an indelible mark on the Scottish game. Alex Miller and Colin Stein were part of the Rangers side who halted their rivals' run, something Steven Gerrard's Ibrox side are hoping to emulate 45 years later.

Acireale will play against Marsala in the Italian Serie D group I which is a Italian fourth division league. The hosts are in very good shape right now. They have won 3 of their last 5 matches and playing some good football. They also hold a good home record. In contrast, Marsala have lost 4 of their last 5 matches and rotting in the bottom of the table. They have a bad away record as well. But I think in this match they will be highly motivated, therefore I hope them to secure victory here in this Italian lower league match.
If you work as hard as possible, you have a chance. If you don't do that, you have no chance. There's a reason they were in so many European finals.

Home team was just excellent in last match in 1/4 final in Cup of Serbia and I believe that they will be on similar level probably and this time, it is clear.

It was a comfortable evening for us. When you have two players in those advanced midfield positions against Watford, you have to get players behind their midfield. Mason Mount's pass is wrapped through the front line [in the build-up to first goal]. I like working with that position because it's where I played and it's important we have quality in that area to unlock the door. Watford manager Nigel Pearson told Sky Sports: "I thought we played with discipline.
