Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says he must change the "energy" at a club he feels have lost their way since he left after retiring as a player in 2016. Arteta, 37, has signed a three-and-a-half-year contract to succeed Unai Emery, who was sacked in November. He has served as an assistant coach at Manchester City but has never managed. I have so much respect for this club, if I didn't feel I am ready and prepared for this I wouldn't be sitting in this chair," Arteta told reporters.

Atletico Madrid had an impressive performance in the European arena with a 1-0 victory over Liverpool in the first leg of the 1/8 round - UEFA Champions League a few days ago, at the Spanish league, Atletico Madrid are showing A very unstable performance and knocked them out of the championship race. In the last 5 rounds, the team of coach Diego Simeone only got 1 victory, the rest lost 2 and drew 2, thereby dropping to 5th place in the rankings with only 40 points after 24 rounds. The biggest factor for their confidence is probably the home field, where the last 4 rounds they have won 3 and drawn only 1.
Despite Nantes not being overly impressive on the road recently, Nîmes have taken the word 'awful' to a whole new level with ten goals conceded in their last two games. The hosts have found hitting the back of the net extremely difficult and with Nantes conceding zero non-penalty goals in two of their last three games it should be another disappointment for the Crocodiles.
Spain bid to win the Davis Cup Finals in front of their home crowd. They have Rafael Nadal of course and that means that Canada go into their first final knowing they are almost 1-0 down before they start. It's likely that this match will go to the deciding doubles as Spain's second singles player hasn't been coming up with the goods this week. Spain will likely have Nadal in the doubles too and they can be backed to get the win and lift the trophy.

They have then got to show character because having been beaten 7-0 we didn't want that to happen again, and they did. Second half, we got up the pitch a bit and worked their keeper a couple of times. Celtic manager Neil Lennon: "The first half was outstanding, the fluidity of the team and the chances we created, the attitude, and the overall quality of football and pace we played at was breathtaking.
There is nothing to expect besides the flood of goals from this game, the game between Gomelzheldortrans fc and Krumkachy fc. The visitors have won their last away game to Khimki fc where they caused havoc in the defense of Khimki fc, they have scored four goals to nil and they come back loaded with three points, after that they later welcomed Gomel at their home soil and levelled the game with one goal from both sides. The home team have five consecutive games while they have scored two or more goals, they have won their last game of their last meeting at this venue which have recorded four goals so I expect more goals from this match.
Frustrated Chelsea get the job done Chelsea sit four points above Leicester City and Manchester United with two games remainingThe first half was lacking in action as Norwich sat back and squeezed out any space available for Chelsea. The hosts just could not seem to get things clicking. Following Saturday's 3-0 defeat at Sheffield United, Chelsea would have wanted to start brightly and they showed signs with Ruben Loftus-Cheek heading wide and Marcos Alonso firing a dangerous cross in from the left within five minutes.
Slutsk are the away team in this game playing against Dinamo brest in this league game in the premier league in Belarus. This will be the second match day in this league. The host started the season with a win in their opening game at home to Slavia Mozyr 3-1 with Artem Serdyuk leading the teams scoring (2). Dinamo brest are the defending champions and they failed winning their opening game as they had to come from a goal down to get a 1-1 draw at home to newly promoted Smolevichi. I think the host can get the win today
These fixtures rarely disappoint, so we advise having a big bag of popcorn at the ready for the drama that will unfold. If you can only pick a certain section of the game to watch, tune in for the finale. We predict that a goal will be scored after 73:59.
This will be one of the most interesting duels in this round in Bundesliga and I will just here bet on goals, and enjoy in fantastic match. Leverkusen is pretty good this season and this team is have goal to play in Champions League, again, next season. On the other side, Borussia Dortmund is have even better team and they are hope that they can attack even the title in this country. What will happen, we will see, but I in any case believe here in at least four goals. Dortmund is in meantime lost in Cup against Werder 3-2.
We returned home with an impression of Bruges that should shame all those responsible for our safety and security," the Manchester United Supporters Trust continued. We have numerous reports that the police instructed taxi drivers to stay away from the ground and not to pick up Manchester United fans. It was a long walk in horrendous weather conditions from the town to the stadium. The letter to mayor Dirk De fauw also questioned the local police's use of water cannons and barbed wire barriers, as well as an apparent refusal to allow supporters to exit the stadium.
These sides actually faced each other quite recently at the tail end of November with Nice winning 3-1. However, Angers had won the previous clash 3-0 and we think it could be a similar result this time as the teams return to the Stade Raymond-Kopa. Le Gym's form is awful on the road while the hosts usually play their best football in front of their own fans so we're backing this one to go the way of the home side.
That was when European giants Bayern agreed a Major League Soccer record £9. January - and the teenager quickly found himself rubbing shoulders with superstars. The first time I came to Bayern Munich, I could not believe it," he told the BBC in September. When I got into the locker room, the first person I saw was Arjen Robben and at that time I could not believe what my eyes were seeing. He came up to me, shook my hand and said: 'Hi, I am Arjen.
We told Arsenal's (head of football) Raul Sanllehi and sports director Edu as well as the new coach Mikel Arteta. Arsenal were informed about all the steps, the player and Hertha are clear. It is only (a matter of) the transfer fee for the clubs. Xhaka was signed from Borussia Monchengladbach in 2016 for around £30m and has made 150 appearances since, scoring 11 goals and providing 17 assists.
It's happened. Lionel Messi has made football history by picking up a record sixth Ballon d'Or. The Argentine has won the prestigious award after scoring 54 goals for his club and country in 2018-19, and picking up his 10th La Liga title with Barcelona as well. It's the first time Messi has picked up the award since 2015. Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk came second, with five-time winner Cristiano Ronaldo third in the voting.
Borussia Dortmund comes from a painful home loss vs Bayern which has radically decreased their hopes to win the title, however they remain 2nd in the Bundesliga table and they can shown one of the most spectacular footballs in the whole Europe, so they are clearly favorite today. Paderborn has been the worst team of this League by far, being at the bottom of the table, 9 points far from a safe place, and having collected no more than a win in the last 10 rounds. Dortmund has scored no less than 3 goals in the last 4 matches vs Paderborn, so winning by more than a goal should be easy for them.
The 22-year-old produced a masterclass in midfield excellence. The Ajax midfielder was everything England were not on a chastening evening for Gareth Southgate’s side; the Barcelona-bound schemer as composed and poised as England were ragged and frayed. Much of England’s travails emanated from a midfield - shorn of two of its usual starters in Dele Alli and Jordan Henderson - devoid of the technical competence to match their opponents.
This was a tough and unexpected blow for all Atletico fans but and I understand why many are so disappointed but we should not judge the club in the heat of the last two results," Gil Marin told the club's official website on Friday. We should be responsible and value who we are, where we are and what we have achieved with this coaching staff and this squad.
Sangju Sangmu has all sorts of problems this season. The club is set to be relegated at the end of the season but still looked to be in a good position in the table. The opening day defeat against Ulsan is well behind now.
Ferguson gave Sheringham the call to replace Blomqvist after 65 minutes and spent a couple of minutes talking to him on the touchline. Come on,” said an impatient Sheringham. Get me on now. Sheringham’s introduction meant a change of shape for United, whose freestyle formation was closest to a diamond midfield – Butt deepest, Giggs on the left and Beckham right, with Yorke behind the front two and Sheringham also pulling left.
We knew first we would be invited to the Club World Cup before we knew how far we would get in the Carabao Cup. We do not fly 3,000 miles not to show up. Our life is certainly dealing with difficult situations. We will be prepared and we will try to win the football gam. We do not see ourselves as the favourites, we are challengers. We are here to represent Liverpool and Europe. The German, who recently signed a new contact until 2024, said Liverpool "respect Monterrey a lot".

My time with Fiorentina was a brilliant experience, on and off the pitch, so I have no regrets at all. Deadline-day confusion - and disappointment Mancini and Richards won the Premier League together at Manchester City in 2012The following deadline day, in January 2015, I was almost on the move again - but this time the move did not happen. My old boss at Manchester City, Roberto Mancini, was in charge of Inter Milan.
From start to finish, the move took around 10 seconds. It was the goal Ronaldo's performance deserved. Lionel Messi: Barcelona 2-0 Man Utd - Stadio Olimpico, Rome, 27 May 2009 Lionel Messi has won the Champions League four times with BarcelonaLionel Messi was edging towards greatness after inheriting Barcelona's number 10 jersey from Ronaldinho. The talent that persuades many to argue he is the greatest ever to play the game was unveiled in all its glory near the banks of the Tiber.
Their rivals Hamilton don't come into this game on the back of a Boxing Day victory, as the Accies lost out to St Johnstone at home after picking up a win over Hearts over the weekend, making it four defeats from their last five.
Juventus, for instance, always have a full house at the Allianz Stadium, which brought them 74m euros (£62m) in revenue during the 2018-19 season - 53m (£45m) of which came from matchdays. Clubs have not been forced to play behind closed doors, with other options available. Clubs could have also suspended games and postpone them, but there are scheduling issues," said the Italian minister of sports Vincenzo Spadafora.
But Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's close-range finish ensured a share of the spoils for the Gunners, who are now 11th in the top flight. Everton 1-0 BurnleyBournemouth 1-1 ArsenalIn Thursday's early kick-off Harry Kane and Dele Alli scored as Tottenham recovered from going a goal behind to beat Brighton. Adam Webster had put Graham Potter's side ahead at the interval but Spurs move up to fifth, three points behind fourth-placed Chelsea.
Gerrard figured out how to cut their supply and negate their impact. This was surely the biggest day of his managerial career. There's been talk about Celtic being a tired bunch of players and there's some - but only some - merit in that. Last season only Derby's Richard Keogh played more minutes for club and country than Callum McGregor, and this season McGregor has played more minutes than any other player in the world (3,714 minutes across 42 games).

His irritation that Ferguson had not spoken to him at the break was still in his mind, but so was another half-time team talk 11 days earlier. United were drawing 1-1 in their final league game at home to Spurs, a match they needed to win to regain the title. Don’t worry lads, keep playing like you are and you’ll get your goal,” said Ferguson.
We had the belief before that game that we could go toe-to-toe with them. I think that we have improved this season and that probably in my first game there away last season - when we lost 1-0 - was the only time that we haven't gone toe-to-toe with them. I think that every game has been tight. Obviously, we have won some and we've lost some, but I've never felt like we've been completely outmatched or outplayed.

When I first joined the BBC I was given a letter to send to the Irish Embassy in London. It was a request to issue me with a second passport. I asked: "Why do I need two passports?" "You'll see," they said. Most football commentators, it turns out, have two passports. It is especially useful if you need to send one to an embassy to receive a visa for an upcoming game, as you can still travel on the other one in the meantime.
Former Marseille president Pape Diouf has died aged 68 after contracting coronavirus, the club have announced.

Pape will remain in the hearts of the Marseillais forever, as one of the great architects in the club's history," Marseille posted on Twitter.
Nordsjaelland is not quite sure they will end the normal season in Denmark on the top 6 places and enter the Championship group where they have indeed played in previous seasons as well and take a ticket for the Europa League qualification stages for next season, but they have very good chances to win their first game after the winter break at home as they won with no less than 3-0 away from home at Horsens earlier this season a game in which they had almost 20 shots and half of them on target as well, while their opponents really struggled to create scoring chances in that one.
Rinsola Babajide scored four in Liverpool's hammering of Blackburn, while their Merseyside rivals Everton eked out a 1-0 win at home to London Bees courtesy of Inessa Kaagman's spectacular strike. England's most-capped player Fara Williams scored twice as Reading won 5-0 at London City Lionesses, while Drew Spence and Emily Murphy netted two apiece as Chelsea triumphed 4-0 at the Championship's bottom side Charlton.
How does the table look? The top two teams in the WSL would ordinarily qualify for the European competition in the following season. Manchester City hold a one-point lead at the top of the WSL table, but second-placed Chelsea have a better points-per-game ratio, so if an average points-per-game system was chosen to determine final league positions, Chelsea would leapfrog City. Arsenal are third and, like Chelsea, have a game in hand on the leaders, but are four points behind City.
I never said he was going to be ready to play on Monday, he'll be involved with us and he will travel down with us," Solskjaer told a news conference. Now he's out of that two week period, precaution and just a precaution. We've kept in touch with him and we've done our own programme, he's done his. He's probably pinching himself at times at his favourite club at the age of 30 but he's earned that one.
David Beckham says there were times he thought his Inter Miami Major League Soccer franchise "might not happen". Inter Miami play their first official match when they visit LAFC on Sunday. It is six years since Beckham exercised an option to own a franchise - included in the deal that brought him to MLS from Real Madrid as a player in 2007. In the intervening years Beckham was embroiled in arguments over a stadium site, with the club playing 30 miles from Miami before it relocates in 2022.
