Brighton extend Potter contract Brighton & Hove Albion have extended manager Graham Potter's contract by two years, which will see him stay at the club until 2025, the Premier League side said on Tuesday. Potter, who arrived from Swansea City and replaced Chris Hughton at Brighton in the close season, has reinvigorated the club that barely survived relegation last season.
I think that we’ve made a good start to the season. We’re up towards the top, which is where we want to be, and I’m happy with how I’m playing too. My goal is to make it at Real Madrid. That’s why I signed for them, to play there. I’m in no rush, though. I’m happy here and if I play for Madrid two or five years down the line, it doesn’t matter.
Performance-wise, I have done OK in what has been a negative season, so I think I will be alright but it will be a case of waiting to see what is on the table. We will see what Bolton say in the next couple of weeks contract-wise, but with us being told we are relegated to League Two now, they are going to have to cut their budget. I have had bits of interest from elsewhere but, as every player knows, until you get something concrete, then it can mean nothing.
The Championship is a "bubble waiting to burst" because clubs are posting record losses in a "gamble" to reach the Premier League. Former Wigan chairman David Sharpe, who sold the club in 2018, said the situation is "frightening" - following a BBC Radio 5 Live Investigation Unit analysis of the Championship's finances. The analysis, conducted with accountants Deloitte and football finance experts Vysyble, found: Championship sides ran up a record high total of £307m in pre-tax losses in 2017-18Despite the league also bringing in its highest-ever revenue of £749m, overall spending on player and staff wages exceeded clubs' revenue by 11%That gap is expected to widen to an all-time high for 2018-19More than half of clubs are spending more on wages than they make in income.
But they are a rarity - PGMOL match officials from a black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) background. The pair are now determined to reach the Premier League and help pave the way for more much-needed diversity among officials at the professional level. I've said it so many times before that if my dad wasn't a referee I wouldn't have thought twice about becoming an official," says Bhups. So how are other people from the same background supposed to even think about wanting to become an official?" Sunny adds: "If we can get out there and be approachable for young referees from a BAME background who want to speak to us and be mentored or even given the right pathway to follow, it is only a good thing.
He got me back to enjoying football. If Ruud Gullit had stayed there I'd have had to have left Newcastle. Sir Bobby recognised straight away what was wrong with me and how to get me playing football with a smile on my face again. Arsene Wenger (Arsenal 1996-2018)Games: 828 Won: 476 Drawn: 199 Lost: 153 Win ratio: 57.

He hurls himself thataway, about six miles off his line, and palms it clear. VAR really should order that to be retaken, but doesn't. Excellent from United, making ground down the right, and when Baldock lifts a pass into mcBurnie, he twizzles into a fine first-time lay-off for Basham, who crosses low.
Winger Ryan Fraser is also a doubt after missing Scotland's qualifying matches against Cyprus and Kazakhstan due to injury.

Brighton: Attacking alternativesGraham Potter will likely look to bolster his attacking options, with the club's all-time Premier League top scorer Glenn Murray set to celebrate his 37th birthday in September. And despite the club spending over £36m on the attacking trio of Florin Andone, Alireza Jahanbakhsh and Jurgen Locadia, none have managed to establish themselves, although academy graduate Aaron Connolly has impressed and Jose Izquierdo is set to return after a long-term injury.
He's lifted the place, lifted everyone around him and it's still early days. I think he can get even better," former United winger Ryan Giggs told Sky Sports. City could be missing the services of their own midfield talisman Kevin De Bruyne due to a shoulder injury sustained in the League Cup final win over Aston Villa.
Deeney had opened the scoring after Tom Heaton made a brilliant save to parry Abdoulaye Doucoure's shot, with the Villa goalkeeper unable to prevent the Watford skipper from firing home the rebound. The home side earned a penalty 10 minutes after Mariappa's dismissal when Deeney was barged off the ball.
However, while the club view the current Official Supporters' Board (OSB) as a group featuring all sections of their support, Hammers United see it as being made up of representatives hand-picked by the club who do not articulate their demands strongly enough. West Ham do not want to meet Hammers United without the OSB being in the same room; Hammers United will not meet West Ham with it. There is no indication the impasse can be broken.

On February 22nd, he netted in his 11th consecutive Serie A game for the club, equalling a league record jointly held by Gabriel Batistuta and Fabio Quagliarella. Tainted title?

Ibrahimovic spent two years with the Serie A outfit, initially on loan before sealing a permanent move and winning a league title. Paper Round’s view: Love him or hate him, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is box office wherever he goes.
Everton are four points behind 10th placed Arsenal and need to match Southampton’s result to remain in 11th place. It could have been a lot worse for them considering they were in the relegation zone earlier in the season. They had a run of seven points from 11 games before Marco Silva was sacked. A form guide for the last 15 league games has them only in 11th but that’s due to their poor away form.
Could it be postponed further? It is entirely possibe that the Premier League could be offline for months. Italy suspended its league only a couple of weeks ago but with the country nowhere near ready to resume anything like normal service, it is not clear if they will be able to restart. If England goes through something as analogous, if only in the scale of the disruption, then it could be an eventual delay of months, not weeks.

Personally I have enjoyed it. I enjoy doing new things. Club captain Hugo Lloris, who returned to action in the victory over Norwich after being out with an elbow injury since October, was also quick to dispel rumours of unrest.

Allan Saint-Maximin had earlier opened the scoring with his first goal for Newcastle, heading home Javier Manquillo's cross.

The result ends Sheffield United's seven-game unbeaten Premier League run, stretching back to a 1-0 defeat by Liverpool on 28 September.

Monza are coming in this fixture as clear favorites against a side struggling to form and form with only three wins in their last nine games. The last time these two teams met Juve U 23 was handed a thorough beating in their home ground and totally out classed with Monza commanding most parts of the game. One thing is clear is that the home team will be looking to proceed and give Juve U 23 a run for the full three points to continue adding up on the great gap they have created at the top of the table.

Then lots of young people with lots of energy and good mentality," he said. When they are winning matches, they are comfortable in this situation of low block and a giant dominating in the air and being fast in counter-attack. There are plenty of teams who have tried such an approach against City, however, and found that Guardiola's side are well capable of dismantling their defence and limiting their counters.
