The name on everyone’s lips at the moment is AC Milan’s Krzysztof Piatek. Now, The Warm-Up has to confess that prior to this week, the last it had heard on Piatek was that he was very good. But apparently he isn’t any more - which you can be sure of because Aston Villa have been linked with him too. The fact Milan have signed a 45-year-old Zlatan Ibrahimovic impersonator in January suggests they don’t have a huge amount of confidence in the Pole, who has only scored four goals this season.
With the Gini's [Wijnaldum] injury today and Dejan's three or four days ago - I don't know who was injured three days before that but for sure, somebody - our squad is not getting bigger," Klopp said. Our main problem is about losing players. We are fine with the number of fixtures but losing players does not make it any easier. Sensationally good organisation'Heavy fixture congestion and injuries are not Klopp's only concern - he is worried the conditions in Qatar and the organisation of the Club World Cup, a tournament the Reds have never won, will go against them.
The last seven Manchester United away league games have all seen under 2.5 goals scored. Brighton have either failed to score or scored just once in nine of their home league games this season. Brighton and Hove Albion are edging towards securing another season in the Premier League. They are 15th at the time of writing this preview and host sixth placed Manchester United.
Brazilian midfielder Formiga has signed a one-year contract extension with the Paris St-Germain women's team - at the age of 42. Formiga hopes to finish her career with a seventh appearance at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, which have been moved to 2021 because of the coronavirus pandemic. She has made a record 198 appearances for Brazil and is the first footballer to appear in seven World Cups. Formiga joined the French club from Brazilian side Sao Jose in 2017.
He was a fantastic goalkeeper. Brave as a lion and brave as a lion off the field as well," said McIlroy. Going into the burning wreckage and pulling people away from it. View more on twitterMcIlroy, who was legendary United manager Sir Matt Busby's last signing as manager in 1969 before he stepped down from the job, was at the club until 1982 and his time at United included a period when Gregg was the club's goalkeeping coach.
Strasbourg have a good record against Lyon with two wins in the last four meetings and as a result we're expecting this one to end 2-1 to the hosts. Both teams have scored in three of the last four clashes between these two but with Strasbourg scoring for fun we see the Alsatians to pile on the misery here.We’re alsoexpecting Ludovic Ajorque to find the net here as the almost two metre tall striker has two goals in his last two games and has scored three times in his last two meetings with Lyon.
We will see the intentions that we have, his intentions, and where we are sitting at that moment. For me, it's very easy, I want to keep him in any circumstances. Arsenal's hopes of securing Champions League qualification would appear slim as they head into the Saturday's league encounter with West Ham United sitting 10th in the table.
The FA Cup fifth round takes place this week with four days of fixtures, starting with Arsenal's trip to Portsmouth on Monday. Many great managers have lifted the famous trophy over the years - but how many of the 15 to have led their team to glory at Wembley (or in Cardiff, of course) since 2000 can you name?They include some of the greatest managers in history, some who masterminded famous upsets, and the man who has won more FA Cups than anybody else.
Internazionale’s chances of winning the Italian Serie A title went up in smoke after Juventus’ win on Sunday and they will now be focused on finishing second when they host Napoli on Tuesday. Inter have so far managed 76 points, in second place and face a Napoli side in seventh place with 59 points. The 3-0 win away to Genoa was Inter’s first in three matches after straight draws, with Roma and Fiorentina and it also marked a second straight clean sheet for Antonio Conte’s team.
United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said he is "not holding his breath" on Rashford's fitness after the in-form England forward injured his back when coming on as a substitute in the FA Cup replay against Wolverhampton Wanderers this week. Going to Anfield without Rashford would be a major blow to United's hopes of ending Liverpool's 38-match unbeaten league run, but Berbatov says 18-year-old Greenwood can step up.

Lautaro Martinez and Romelu Lukaku dominate the headlines at Inter but Skriniar is just as vital for Antonio Conte's side. The tough and combative Slovakian defender would be a perfect fit for many of Europe’s top leagues and, at the age of just 25, still has plenty of years to shine at another top club.
Klopp won’t last as long as Arsene Wenger or Sir Alex Ferguson, no-one ever will again, but when he does leave Liverpool will be set-up to succeed beyond him, whomever they appoint. Where is that sort of direction from Spurs? Who cares right? As long as the new stadium and the TV money is still swelling the coffers does it really matter? When he steps aside Levy will be able to argue that his Spurs tenure saw them take their seat at the top table in Europe and will point to the record commercial performances.
Ashley willing to structure payments. The reduction would reflect the impact of the new coronavirus pandemic that has halted most soccer worldwide. Newcastle are one of three Premier League clubs to have furloughed staff. The north-east club has been on the market for several years and talks with Staveley's PCP have been going on behind the scenes for some time.
Slavia will against BATE in match Belarusian Cup. My prediction this match could be the win for Slavia with margin score is 1 goal. Slavia have great result on last 2 match in Belarusia Cup due to Slavia can beat Dnepr Mogilev with score 3-0 in home and away match. meanwhile, BATE also have great result on last 2 match in Belarus Cup due to BATE can beat Dinamo Minsk in 2 times with score 1-2 and 3-2. Nevertheless, my prediction that Slavia can beat BATE on this match due to Slavia more strong in every home match. Moreover Slavia has just defeat BATE in league with score 2-1. Surely Slavia have more chance to win on this match.

Clearly Wolves have had a much better season but the Hammers are not a bad team on their day, and are better than their position in the table suggests, so I am backing them to spring a bit of a surprise. Lawro's prediction: 1-0Al's prediction: The only potential problem for Wolves this season was that Nuno Espirito Santo was playing the same team week-in, week-out, but after the break they have had, they will be strong again.
Brno and Unicov game is likely to produce an under 3.5 in this game. The away team usually holds back teams from scoring many goals against it and therefore I believe the maximum goals that can be scored in this match is 3 and not more than that.
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.
The home side begin the weekend only outside the Championship relegation zone on goal difference. They will hope that the sides around them have a bad weekend before this match takes place on Monday.

Flick was promoted from the coaching staff after Niko Kovac's dismissal following Bayern's 5-1 thrashing away to Eintracht Frankfurt last month. He was initially hired for two matches against Olympiakos in the Champions League and against Borussia Dortmund in the league. But after two wins he was trusted to continue until the winter break.
One idea could be to award Liverpool the title, scrap relegation, and allow West Brom and Leeds to form a 22-club Premier League for the following season. That would be hugely controversial though, as would having "playoffs" to decide the title, relegation and promotion issues. The priority will be for the current season to run it's course, although fitting Champions League, Europa League and domestic cup fixtures looks fanciful -- unless the next season began in October.
United and Arsenal currently top their groups, which would mean them playing away first. There will be two Champions League last-16 first-leg ties on 18 February, with a further two the night after. No more than one English team is likely to play on each individual match night. Manchester City and Tottenham have already reached that stage. Holders Liverpool need at least a point against RB Salzburg in their final group match next week to get through, while Chelsea will also qualify if they beat Lille, although a draw may also be good enough.
The new Chairman is Matt Southall. Happy day' Some slightly spurious links being drawn by commentators. Emery 'unaware of fate' Journalist David Ornstein, who reported this morning that Emery was likely to be sacked today, has tweeted that the Spaniard did not know he would be leaving today and even led a training session with his players this morning.
Goals by Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane cancelled out an early Bournemouth opener from Callum Wilson as Liverpool clocked up a 22nd consecutive home win in the top flight, breaking a record set by Shankly's men in 1972. Klopp, who steered Liverpool to the Champions League trophy last season and who has achieved cult status at Anfield where Shankly is still revered, said: "Oh yes, I will never compare with this fella.
Fylde will host Aldershot Town for this fixture of the league. Both teams are very average teams in this league. True, Fylde have a poor results in this campaign. Field is one of the teams of the relegation zone. In any case, the hosts have the motivation to change their positions. In previous game File is won 1-2 against Dag & Red. On the other hand Aldershot is very average team in this season. However, Aldershot have fallen in their shape. They have two consecutive losses. Also, Aldershot is not very good team away from home. So, the hosts want to get the victory because they are in danger of getting relegated.
Sheff Utd beat Spurs to close in on top sixRelive Thursday's Premier League action'We cannot mentally die from Michael Oliver's decision'Tottenham struggled to find their rhythm after that decision as the Blades eased to victory thanks to goals by Sander Berge, Lys Mousset and Oli McBurnie, before Kane grabbed a late consolation. Mourinho, whose side are now nine points off fourth place and seven off sixth, said his players need to be stronger mentally to deal with decisions that are difficult to take.
Granada fc will go head to head with Villarreal fc in Spain La liga Santander this evening., their last head to head game have ended with each team scores four goals and the total number of goals reach eight goals so here I think the best prediction is to choose number of goals as it is difficult to know actual winner.

Odds are really great to be taken in this one on the home win as I watched them last round play also at home but even against tougher opposition from Gangwon who were priced a bit above 2.00 for the win, but Sangju played perfect and won the game 2-0 in the end, so why are odds so high on them to win this game as well at home against a newly promoted side like Gwangju which played two games losing both of them with ease and did not even score a single goal while the attack of Sangju creates scoring chances with ease even in home games.

From Liverpool howler to steady as a rockJust as impressive as Sheffield United's unexpected form this season has been the rise of Henderson from Premier League rookie to a realistic contender for the England number one spot. But his development has not come without a few bumps in the road. A significant moment came in September against Liverpool. The Blades were on course for a hard-fought and unexpected draw against the Premier League leaders until Henderson let a tame Georginio Wijnaldum effort slip through his legs for the only goal of the game.

Are Brighton safe?While Norwich have faltered since the restart, Brighton have thrived. The Seagulls were just two points above the relegation zone when the season was suspended. They are now nine points clear of 18th-placed Aston Villa and 19th-placed Bournemouth, both on 27 points. Graham Potter's side have reached 36 points - a tally that has been good enough to stay up for the past three seasons - with five games to go, meaning the pressure of hosting champions Liverpool and second-placed Manchester City in back-to-back fixtures is eased considerably.
In the past two rounds, Jurgen Klopp has played the kids - first against Everton and then an even younger team in the replay against Shrewsbury - so we will have to wait and see what he does this time. There are other worries for Southgate tooAt the moment it is hard to say who should lead England's attack against Croatia when they play their first group game of Euro 2020 at Wembley on 14 June. It is clear that centre-forward is turning into a problem position for Southgate with all these players being sidelined.
