If Freddie Ljungberg wants to be Arsenal manager for any length of time, he has to change what the Gunners do when they are not in possession. It was bad enough watching their defensive display in Sunday's 2-2 draw at Norwich first time around but, when I went through the game again for our analysis on MOTD2, it was apparent just how poor they are at that part of the game. Watching clip after clip of them in the cold light of day, it was almost astonishing how often Arsenal just retreat away from the ball.

But there were none for Mauricio Pochettino either. If those I spoke to beforehand are any guide, while there is huge disappointment to see the popular Argentine leave, there is also recognition that the situation could not be left as it was indefinitely because results and performances were not good enough. Mourinho has been brought in to change the dynamic. He must do so knowing many of his squad felt a special bond with Pochettino, which will not be erased because he is no longer around.

We had a few glasses of wine, put the Dunfermline game to bed as a group and cracked on with training on the Thursday. It was something we all felt we needed to do. Whether it was advisable ahead of a game of that magnitude, I'm not so sure, but it didn't affect us on the Saturday. Brattbakk adds: "It was a nervy week because the hype was unbelievable by then.
The threat of clubs going bust because of the financial impact of Covid-19 has not gone away, says Football League chairman Rick Parry. After weeks of argument, Leagues One and Two voted by an "overwhelming majority" to end their seasons in line with EFL guidelines on Tuesday, after a number of alternative proposals and amendments were rejected.

Liverpool the best team in England, but the A team cannot win at away, although they lead by 2 goals... The FA give a small winter break for the teams and Klopp said to media they want to enjoy this small relax time. They are the championship leader, beat all team in the league, so they can send the best starting XI, but everybody knows as before the Club World Championship the U23 team with coach will play today. The team first match in League Cup finished 0-5 vs. Aston Villa, but play at home and the rival play only third league, so expect a close game.

Both sides have seen their games average 2.75 goals but this one looks like it might be a bit tighter with neither team possessing much in the final third throughout the tournament with just 12 goals between them so far. We can definitely see this one being a tight, cagey affair on what should be a freezing cold Russian night and are backing the under 2.5 goal line to be a winner at 11/10.

Tottenham still hopes to finish this season in the Top 4 and guarantee a place in the Champions League next season. The Spurs conceded a disappointing draw in the previous round but we believe that Mourinho's squad will be able to bounce back on this match. On the other side, Southampton is fighting to avoid relegation, they have not been in great form this season and on this match Tottenham's quality should make the difference. For that reason, we will take Tottenham on the 1x2 market her to get the win as the best line to bet on this match.

We’re confident that both teams will score in Saturday’s cup tie and we have predicted a final scoreline of 3-1 in Benfica’s favour. The visitors are the clear choice to win the game as their side is packed with international players and they play two divisions above their hosts.

Of course, and this time, goals are very very real.

Luton have not enjoyed their season in the Championship so far, losing 17 of their 26 games and conceding at least eight more goals than any other side in the league, an average of 2.15 goals per game. They’ve been good enough in front of goal with 32 goals in 26 games but by leaking so many goals they find themselves stuck to the bottom of the Championship and three points from safety. If they carry their league form into the cup, they’ll be exiting at the first stage once again.
