It’s astonishing how out of things you feel if you’re not playing,” he said in his first autobiography. It’s as if a glass partition descends between you and the players who are in the side. Keane was sharing a room with Denis Irwin, a dubious idea given one was playing and one not. He had a few drinks with Scholes and some United fans on the Monday night before sneaking to bed.
Deportes Tolima will host Junior for this fixture of the league. I believe, both teams are one of the main favorites of the group A. Junior are in better shape in this campaign. They are currently on the 1st position with 10 points. Visitors have 3 victories in their last 4 matches. In any case, I think, the visitors have the potential to provide a strong resistance. I expect, they will try to fighting for the victory. Also, we have Deportes Tolima who's is a very unpredictable team in this campaign. Tolima showed a poor result against weak Cucuta and for me they could lose. My pick - Junior to win.
Where has Bordalas come from?On 29 May 2016, following a 2-0 victory over Numancia, Bordalas led Alaves back to La Liga for the first time in 10 years. But then on 21 June, just 23 days after he had secured promotion, he was sacked. For their coach, it should have heralded the start of a new chapter in his life - a life that until then had consisted of an unglamorous playing career and a 23-year-long coaching path at every level except the very top.

I really wanted to take the over 3.5 goals bet here in this one at odds of 3.00 of course it was the risk that there would be just 3 goals scored in this one as for example last season also here in this second league level when these two teams met the game ended in a 2-1 win for the hosts but in their last two games in the league they drew both those games with 2-2 in the end so games with over 3.5 goals scored in them.
The truth was that Norway had a monster of a defensive midfielder in Sander Berge, who covered a crazy amount of space and in many ways saved Norway. Together with Martin Odegaard and Erling Braut Haaland, they are the greatest talents Norway has had over the last 30 years. Attracting Premier League interest Berge was linked with Liverpool and Chelsea at the tail end of last year, having impressed for Genk in the Champions League, while Manchester United were also said to be interested in the Norway international.

The best manager I was lucky to play for. The times we had on and off the pitch were priceless. My thoughts are with Pat and the family. RIP my good friend. Never forgotten. He is survived by wife Pat, whom he married in 1958, and their three children, John, Deborah and Peter. Charlton's granddaughter, journalist Emma Wilkinson, tweeted: "Beyond sad to have to say goodbye to my beloved Grandad, Jack Charlton.
I expect at least three goals in this match from Norway elite league and probably and more than that. So, Rosenborg is team who is closer to win here and they are favorites, but in the same time, they are last season not playing very good and their defense was problematic. Their main goal this season is to play better and in the same time they will try to win new title, what will not be easy. Kristiansund is team who is solid and they will score here at least one goals. We will see what will happen this time.
His chosen team looked an exciting one on paper, but Son Heung-min and Lucas Moura were spectators for most of the match, the midfield didn’t really function and Rashford was tearing the defence apart at will. Spurs are nine points off the Champions League places and you could see why tonight - Mourinho has inherited a dysfunctional team.
Lionesses finishing third at the World Cup (2015) Lucy Bronze's looping header helped England beat Canada 2-1 in the quarter-finalsWhen England beat Germany for the first time in 31 years to finish third at the 2015 Women's World Cup, the celebrations left no-one in any doubt about the significance of the achievement.

The guests are just a newly promoted side and have played 2 games so far this new year in the league and lost both of them as they lost last round with 4-2 at home with Dep. Cuenca while in their first game they ended up losing with 2-1 away at El Nacional so quite not bad at scoring goals but problem is Barcelona SC especially at home is very hard to score against, and with such a defense the hosts should really be good enough for putting a couple of goals in their opponents goal.
Hamburg played 3 games after the restart and are yet to win a game coming closer perhaps last round against direct promotion rivals from Stuttgart as they totally dominated the first half of that tough away game and had the lead even 2-0 by half-time just that in the second half they conceded 3 goals in a row and were left empty handed, and since not many rounds are remaining to be played and points are very important I see big motivation for them to get the win here especially since they are facing a team from the relegation zone, When.
Yet Klopp believes his side are still improving. We can do things better and we have to," he said after the win over Sheffield United. In the dressing room there was no party or something. While a first English title since 1989-90 looks a formality, Liverpool still have a way to go to match other great runs in European football.
We have to do it our way, we can't try to copy. We have had experienced players around this year to help the youngsters but we know there are little areas within the squad… some of that's what we have on the ground here already, some of that is how we might look to recruit. What's going on in the world has made it very difficult to plan on that front.
While acknowledging that the technology used to determine offside decisions by VAR is not accurate enough to identify millimetre calls, Brud said that did not mean the offside law needed to be changed. We don’t think it is time (to change the law). What we need to do is focus on the training and education and ensure that the consistency and application of the VAR/offside law is being done properly," he said, rejecting the suggestions for the law to reflect 'clear daylight' or other changes.

I see good chances that this game ends up in a high scoring affair as for example when they met at Cardiff earlier this season Cardiff won the game with 4-2 in the end so both teams scoring goals back than in a fixture which had no less than 6 goals being scored total in it while lately both are high scoring, Cardiff won this week in the cup the replay against 4th league club Carlisle with 4-3 on the road this after drawing 2-2 the first game at home.

Solskjaer has come under increased pressure after back-to-back Premier League defeats by Liverpool and Burnley left them six points behind Chelsea, who occupy the fourth Champions League qualification spot. Ahead of United's FA Cup fourth round match against Tranmere Rovers on Sunday, Solskjaer said there would be no "quick fix" to improve their form.
And on England striker Rashford, who suffered a stress fracture in his back in January, Solskjaer said the outlook was worse. I would hope he's playing this season - it will just be touch and go towards the end," added the Norwegian. I was hoping he would recover quicker than what it looks like he's going to be out for. Another few months definitely. If he's not fit enough he won't go [to the Euros].
Brighton failed to register a single shot on target in a Premier League home game for only the second time, also failing to do so against Liverpool in January.

Gareth Bale of Real MadridGetty Images Paper Round’s view: Bale almost left the club in the summer when a Chinese side agreed to take on his wages, but the move collapsed when the club decided they wanted a transfer fee for him. What is left unsaid by the paper - but could be a possibility - is that the 30-year-old winger could finally be on his way before the January transfer window for European clubs closes.
That defeat at the Cottage was yet another setback for the visitors in the capital. Leeds have won just one of their last 18 away league games in London (W1 D5 L12), losing each of their last five in a row.

Barcelona lost the 1st place in the league last week after losing at Real Madrid but could take over the 1st place again today with a win. At home Barcelona have been by far the strongest team in the league with a 12-1-0 record scoring also the most goals with a total of 44.
Top seeded Daniil Medvedev lost in the last eight to Gilles Simon who he could meet in the final.

Wigan have won just once in their last 32 away games at this level, while their 2-1 loss at Luton in their last trip has left them with eight losses from 11 away matches so far. Unlike last season, their home record isn’t propping them up. They come here with 12 losses in 22 games.
