There are some not getting much football but they could be needed during the second half of the season. ChelseaRoss Mooring - Chelsea Fancast Frank Lampard's first year as Chelsea manager is still a work in progress and Champions League qualification is far from assured, but it is likely the club won't be making any splash signings to end the transfer window.

There are still some issues to sort out but there is hunger and togetherness in this Gunners team and they are definitely on the rise. Their fans know it too. It has been so volatile at Emirates Stadium in the past few seasons but there seems to be some patience right now, even when mistakes are made. Overall it is obvious they are better organised, especially out of possession, under Arteta but it is still slow, slow progress and they are going to have the odd slip-up.
For me', he says, 'it’s remembered for the wrong reasons. I did everything I could and the famous photo shows that I’m closer to the ball than his head. That’s why he punched it in with this hand. You always have people saying: ‘Oh, he out-jumped you. He didn’t out-jump me. He cheated. So to be associated with that moment' …" Peter Shilton sits down with The Guardian to chew the fat (again) over the 'Hand of God'.
Stuttgart and Arminia Bielefeld will face each other in the upcoming match in the Second Bundesliga. Stuttgart this season have the following results: 13W, 5D and 6L. Meanwhile Arminia Bielefeld have 14W, 8D and 2L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Argyle may be well placed in terms of the goalscoring table, but it is noticeable that when they are on the road they tend to keep things tight and the fact that they have kept a clean sheet in around a third of their away league matches this term is certainly a positive they can take into this weekend’s fixture.
When I was at Fulham there was a player there who had a similar problem and had to get off the pitch or completely embarrass himself. If you do that, you know you’re putting yourself under pressure. If you’re only going for a number one, then you can question that but I believe that he had a stomach problem and had no other option.
It would still prefer it not to happen but the governing body understands that Manchester City are in a tricky position thanks to a problem they had no control over. Once the March international break has passed, there are only two spare midweek slots - and City already need one for their game against Arsenal, postponed after they reached the EFL Cup final. If they progress past Sheffield Wednesday in the FA Cup, Pep Guardiola's side could have another two games called off, so they can do without using the West Ham game to fill a slot.

Many went to Paris anyway, just to be near to the event and soak up its magic. For 49 glorious minutes on 7 May 2000, the fairytale story appeared as though it was going to get its perfect ending, thanks to Jerome Dutitre’s 34th-minute opening goal. However, reality came crashing back in, in the shape of two Nantes goals - both scored by future Manchester City, Newcastle and Wigan midfielder Antoine Sibierski, the second a cruel 90th-minute game-winning penalty.

Arteta has been attempting to stabilise Arsenal's floundering season since former boss Unai Emery was sacked in December. The London side sit 10th in the standings -- 10 points behind the fourth and final Champions League spot.

It seems likely Uefa will reschedule the play-off matches, which will decide the last four places at next year's rescheduled European Championship, after the first Nations League matches in September.

Villa boss Dean Smith said he was proud of his players' efforts against "one of the top teams in the world". We knew we would have to be patient without the ball," he said. They went 2-0 up and it is a mountain to climb against a team of that quality but we nearly climbed that mountain. I thought the lads showed a lot of heart and a lot of quality as well.

Though a desperately poor loss against Sheffield United left him questioning the mentality of his players, their overall form has been excellent since the restart, and they have collected five wins and two draws from eight games.

Al Sadd are playing at home but they don’t seem to have the quality of players to match Monterrey, who also carry a great run to this game. Monterrey are unbeaten in their last 13 matches and have also not lost in the last seven away matches. One factor about both sides is that they score a lot but in terms of defending, Monterrey have been better. Al Sadd struggled against Hienghene Sport and though they are playing in front of home fans, we don’t envision them winning this. We will go with a 2-1 win for Monterrey here.
