Busby was pulled from the wreckage, his life and legacy hanging in the balance. However, the Scot's return to health saw him also return to the dugout to change the face of Manchester United. Using his own words, BBC Scotland charts the remarkable life and times of Sir Matt Busby:From Bellshill to Liverpool1909: Alexander Matthew "Matt" Busby is born in Orbiston, Bellshill in Lanarkshire Scotland. I was born in a pitman's cottage and the doctor who delivered me said 'a footballer has come to this house this day'.
It had the desired effect in a 2-1 victory and Lampard was at it again here at the King Power Stadium, although in less diplomatic fashion. Match-winner Ross Barkley revealed the manager had told his players their poor first-half performance was not good enough for the Chelsea badge. Lampard's half-time salvo was flagged up by the sound of his discontent echoing around the stadium and three interval changes - Barkley, Mateo Kovacic and Cesar Azpilicueta for Billy Gilmour, Reece James and Mason Mount - shifted this quarter-final in Chelsea's favour.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp says moving the Africa Cup of Nations back to January "is, for us, a catastrophe. The 2021 tournament has been moved from the summer because of "unfavourable" weather in host country Cameroon. And the Reds face losing Senegal forward Sadio Mane, Egypt winger Mohamed Salah and Guinea midfielder Naby Keita for a month in mid-season. If we have to make a decision about bringing in a player, it is a massive one," said the Anfield boss.
Burnley strike partners Chris Wood and Ashley Barnes both scored second-half goals to secure three points at Vicarage Road and leave Watford at the bottom of the table. In torrential rain, the Clarets soaked up all the pressure the Hornets had to offer before pouncing early in the second half when Wood hooked home a loose ball from a corner.
Wolves are still 12 points behind the Europa League place but also a dozen above the relegation zone. Unless they have a spectacular run of good or bad form, their main target this season is going to win the FA Cup and qualify for the Europa League. They had gone eight league games without a win before beating Arsenal in midweek.
DVTK and Zalaegerszegi will face each other in the upcoming match in the OTP Bank Liga. DVTK this season have the following results: 12W, 4D and 11L. Meanwhile Zalaegerszegi have 9W, 7D and 11L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
He has a completely different way of understanding the game," said Dybala. For me, and maybe the other forwards, it's more fun. We have more of the ball and we create more chances. It allows you to take risks and do something different because you know you will have another chance. And that helps a lot.
Arsenal have won four of their last five matches and after the postponement of their match against Manchester City, they will go to this game well rested. They have not done well against Brighton in recent meetings but they will meet a side low on confidence after going winless in 10 matches. Though Arsenal have not won many away matches in the league, they have a fairly good away run across all competitions. Looking at Brighton’s form, and placed against Arsenal’s improving defensive performance, we feel a 1-0 win for Arsenal could pass here.
Given the form of these two sides, we can offer little reason for fans of Newport County to be hopeful in this one and we fully expect the hosts to claim a vital three points. The hosts are undefeated in their last five outings, winning three and drawing two, and given their strength at home and combined with their visitors current struggles, a home win is where we shall be placing our trust.
Premier League clubs Aston Villa and Brighton have donated hundreds of meals to local homeless charities after this weekend's fixtures were postponed.

He failed on all counts. There were shafts of light, such as a 22-match unbeaten run last season and a Europa League final appearance when Arsenal were heavily beaten by Chelsea, but all dawns were false. Emery, for all his pedigree, never got to grips with the task and the biggest condemnation is that all Arsenal's obvious and long-standing flaws remained as unaddressed on the day he left as when he arrived.
All things considered, backing the Both Teams to Score line looks the only way to play as far as the betting is concerned and is something we're happy to do with maximum confidence. The last 3 meetings between the two have seen goals at both ends and an average of 4.66 goals a game scored and we fancy that theme to continue in an entertaining 2-2 draw.
Liverpool great Souness has used his Sky Sports punditry and Times column to take swipes of Pogba, labelling him "a bit of a YouTuber" and "an absolute doddle to play against". He has also suggested Manchester United "had their trousers down paying £100 million" for the Frenchman. However, when asked about the criticism, Pogba insists he initially did not know who the three-time European Cup winner was.

The hosts have put together a decent home record on paper, but there’s still room for improvement as they head deeper into the season. Sheffield Wednesday have certainly had a kind fixture list so far, as they’ve already met all of the bottom 10 this term. That leaves them facing some strong teams as we head towards Christmas and there’s a clear pattern emerging.
Dec 4 (Reuters) - Atletico Madrid's seemingly unshakeable position as Spain's third force has come under threat following a slide in form and they desperately need to get their season back on track when they visit Villarreal in La Liga on Friday. The match would be taking place in Miami had the league got its way but after losing a legal battle last month, the teams will be meeting on the shores of Spain's east coast rather than the sunshine state.

Prospect of return as BAME player 'frightening' - Charlton's PratleyA conference call took place on Wednesday between the league, players, medical staff and the Professional Footballers' Association - the players' union - to discuss 'Project Restart'. On Thursday, the government said it was "opening the door" for the return of professional football in England in June. The Premier League hopes for a return to action on 12 June, with matches played behind closed doors.
But he still had so much hard work to do, somehow managing to squeeze the ball through the tiny gap and into the back of the net. How?!"Mo scored the most difficult situation of the whole night!" an incredulous manager Jurgen Klopp told BT Sport. I have no idea [how]. With his quality, how he didn't score one or two of the others I have no clue. He played really well but didn't score in the situations we expect him usually to score, but staying on track and making such a decisive and very difficult finish, that probably says much more about him than all of the other goals he has scored.
Gianluigi Donnarumma - Atalanta-Milan - Serie A 2019/2020 - Getty ImagesGetty Images Juventus If you look within Serie A then Juventus jump out as the obvious destination. They have been following the keeper for a while and they clearly see him as a worthy heir to Gianluigi Buffon. It is true that Wojciech Szczesny is under contract until 2024 but it is equally true that the Polish international (as reliable as he has been) is nine years older than Donnarumma and if a good offer comes in he could leave.
Two squad may not have competition games in the recent two months, but there is a chance for them to make the first one in Cup, which is not of the main importance for both. Salzburg got the chance to fight for Championship, after leader LASK got six points deducted. However, they could go relaxed against second league opponent, and make one good attacking performance.
Chippa United against Black Leopards here, meeting of the Premier Soccer League of South African soccer that is played tomorrow afternoon at 6:30 pm. Favorite hosts for the victory of the match come from an external success for 0-2 on the AmaZulu while the guests are coming back from a home victory for 2-1 on Cape Town City. The Chippa will have the field from his UI but the guests do not lose from two matches and in any case there is no technical gap between these two teams so I decide to try a draw here at 3.00. Good luck to all! ;-)
He's one of the best strikers in the world. You just need his team -- England or Tottenham -- to go with him to the next level. What's the next level? Titles. I think he needs to win with us, with England, he needs to win something to highlight the quality that he has as a player, the goals he scores, what he brings to the team.

I never heard a player doubt 'can we play like this, or should we play like this?'"They are all so convinced as he does not leave one drop of a doubt what needs to be done.

Somehow 22 points behind Liverpool after only 25 games, City will have to be content with second place and must battle for it, only holding a two-point lead over third-placed Leicester. It''s a strange time for Pep Guardiola. For the first time in his City career, they have gone two games (against United and Spurs) without scoring.

Aubameyang looked rusty on his return as he passed up a couple of decent openings in the first half. Twice he was ushered through on goal but on both occasions he failed to find the net, skewing wide with the first attempt and then lacking conviction to beat Nick Pope with a lob shortly after. And in the second half he curled a header wide.

For Bruce, a proud Geordie, this was his dream gig. But among the 33 managers to have managed 200 or more Premier League games in charge, his win percentage of 28. And he had previously managed Sunderland, which to the staunch Magpies fan was a big no-no. The disillusionment, all too apparent during the protests against the ownership before the Arsenal match, grew after the 3-1 loss at 'relegation rivals' Norwich.
We are delighted with the dressing room we have found here. There are no problems. I thought it would be more difficult than it is.

Matt was the outstanding candidate in Europe for this role, head and shoulders above anyone else, as he brings deep experience and knowledge to the club, but also a history with The Southampton Way.

Antonio Conte’s changes in the Champions League proved his focus for the season. The manager wants to take the title back to Milan, stopping Juventus from winning nine in a row.
