He just takes too long. What is he waiting for?! "If you're going to make a decision at least do it quickly. These are huge moments for United in terms of trying to get into the top four, and you've got your experienced goalkeeper. I think there's almost a bit of arrogance to it, 'look at me. I would have lynched him at half-time.

It speaks for itself, the work we do on the pitch, we did everything we could at that time to turn it round [after the 9-0 defeat to Leicester], it couldn't have gone any better than that. I'm so proud of us as a team and how far we have come. Ings' hot streak continues - the stats Southampton have claimed three away Premier League victories in a row. Leicester have lost consecutive home Premier League games for the first time under Brendan Rodgers, having been defeated in just one of their first 14 matches at the King Power under him in the competition (W10 D3 L1).
Bruno’s goals and assists stats speak for themselves, he will be a fantastic addition to our team and he will help us push on in the second part of the season. The winter break is coming at a perfect time for us to integrate Bruno into the squad and for him to get to know his team-mates. The proposed move dragged on for three transfer windows, with United initially refusing to meet Sporting's valuation of the player.

Burton travel to take on Peterborough at Weston Homes Stadium on Saturday afternoon, as they go in search of a fourth away win (in the league) this season. The hosts will be looking to enhance what is already a pleasing home record.
Chelsea continues to have a fever and the team can produce completely unpredictable results, for example, as in the last round at home with Bournemouth. The team still has disgusting defense, which can block all attacking achievements.
Galatasaray have the best defensive record in the Super Lig with Alanyaspor and Istanbul Basaksehir tied on second. This is a contest between two teams who know how to defend so don't be surprised if it's low on chances. We predict that the scoreline will reflect that.

In contrast, fans of their French counterparts were to bring a carnival atmosphere to Glasgow. Neutrals, meanwhile, were gearing up for what they hoped would be a match reminiscent of the only other European Cup final that had taken place in the stadium at that time - the legendary 7-3 win for Real Madrid in 1960. The atmosphere was incredible," Roth remembers. Hampden was sold out and in the last seconds before the game, I think every player had goosebumps.

Read about Scotland's play-off bidThere are only two groups Wales could be in - A or B. Group B, which has already been finalised apart from Wales or Finland, would see Ryan Giggs' side in with Belgium, Russia and Denmark. They beat the first two of those on their way to the Euro 2016 semi-finals and lost twice to Denmark in last year's Nations League. If they are in Group A - Italy's group - they could end up with the Azzurri, France and Portugal - or Italy, Poland and the Czech Republic.

The 26-year-old was seen using crutches and wearing a protective boot during Liverpool's celebrations after the 1-0 win over Flamengo in Qatar.

Trying me out with a game for the lower Segunda Division ranks in Spanish football, where this afternoon we have a showdown between Sanluqueno and Villarrobledo. Here, I believe in good chances for the guests to pick up a win or at least a point. They play offensive and should score goals here. The home team are favorites and doing well, but they have had problems lately in defense, and do not come up with the best team today. I see them well in trouble here, which is why odds 2.15 in over 2.5 goals in my eyes also seems too high.

WEDNESDAY'S BIG STORIES The Poch Offensive "And you're sure people will know who you are? OK, follow me. In the age before social media, it's a cameo that would have gone unnoticed.

Their form on the road is a bit of a worry and will certainly have to improve if Monday's hosts are to cement themselves as a top-two team, but fortunately, their efforts at home have been very good. Stuttgart have won six out of eight at Mercedes-Benz Arena, including each of their last two, both of which saw them net three goals. A repeat of either of their last two attacking performances at this venue would surely be enough to see off a Nurnberg side that has leaked plenty of goals on the road.

We’re not anticipating a very high scoring game in this one as both sides look to keep things tight at the back but with Western Sydney the side more likely to create goalscoring opportunities, we’re backing the hosts to run out 2-0 winners. There shouldn’t be much threat from Brisbane Roar, who have plenty to work on and Wanderers are still re-building their season. They should have enough to win, although it may not always be the most comfortable victory.
The resilience and effort was brilliant and in the second half we got our fluency back and some of our goals were outstanding. We played some really good football at times," Rodgers, whose side had not scored for three games, said. The intensity is important to how we play and the pressure on the ball was much better.
But Nuno Espirito Santo's side have roared back impressively since recording their first Premier League win of the season on 28 September, when they beat Watford. They had won three of their four league games prior to the trip to the Amex and another win would have taken them back above both Tottenham and Manchester United into fifth in the table. Like Brighton, they lacked that bit of extra energy in the second half as a third game in seven days perhaps took its toll.

The tempo was slower and the precision level lower, with the result that Chelsea were able to enjoy plenty of the ball as well as troubling the far-from-secure City backline. Midfielder Kevin De Bruyne, whose goal brought City back on level terms after N'Golo Kante's opener before Riyad Mahrez's 37th-minute match-winner, said the game showed there was another way of winning.
As goalkeeper Ben Foster recalls, the new boss tore into one player, "sticking a rocket up him like you wouldn't believe". There was no sulking from the players, though, no lasting bitterness or resentment - just acceptance. Watford would concede again and lose 2-0 on that mid-December afternoon. The result left them six points adrift at the bottom of the table, but Pearson had made his point. They have not lost since.
That game plan is not a new one against City.

So, with apologies to Portsmouth fans out there, it was almost reassuring to see a game go entirely to plan, with no alarms, no surprises and the team that was expected to win, actually win. Arsenal played a young, changed but pretty strong team for their trip to Fratton Park in the FA Cup, and that was reflected in the overall performance and indeed result, as they strolled past their League One opponents with a little more ease than the 2-0 scoreline suggested.
