Al Ahli SC - Streaming and TV Schedule, Fixtures, Results And so, Champions League football is the aim now, as that will help the rebuild no end - you know, until they draw Bayern in the groups again and realise how far behind they are. That move was a controversial one, much like any that sees a team ripped from its community, but you can't say it hasn't been successful. The True Blues Consortium - a Chelsea supporters' group which counts former Blues captain John Terry among its founders - has thrown its weight behind Mr Pagliuca's bid. They might not be winning the treble, but with the Premier League and Champions League still possible it would certainly be a mighty treble of sorts if Manchester City can win those two trophies and bag Erling Haaland this summer in the process. PSG trio Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Gianluigi Donnarumma, Barcelona's Sergio Busquets, Frenkie de Jong, Jordi Alba and Dani Alves as well as Real Madrid duo Karim Benzema and David Alaba all feature on the men's shortlist. Despite Mikel Arteta’s side creating the better openings in the first half, it was Southampton that took the lead against the run of play just before half-time. Suddenly, Son, Kane and a similarly rejuvenated Dele Alli were on the move when Winks had the ball at his feet. The players know the structure of how we work and how we play, so for the guys coming in it's clear how they have to play. Now we are here. In the opposite camp, Real's Luka Modric admitted that he thought his side were dead at 3-0 down - but hailed the home support in the Santiago Bernabeu who drove their side to victory. While their focus is on strengthening at the back, Newcastle are also in talks with Reims for France U20 forward Hugo Ekitike, with the striker understood to be keen on a move to St James' Park. So, the decision was really easy to take for me. Then, it's up to the players to show their quality. PSG refused to sanction the striker's departure, but he revealed at the start of the season that he had pushed for the move due to a desire to take on a new challenge away from France. We're only at the end of December so there are many more games. We are eight points in front but there are 54 points still to play for. Like me, Robert is a passionate Wolves supporter, but Kidderminster is his local non-league club and he is a regular visitor to our games and was at the match on Tuesday. If United go and win at Leicester, this would be a bigger statement than beating Leeds 6-2, Merson told Sky Sports. Rose has suggested he also won't be taking any risks on Reyna for Dortmund's DFB-Pokal round of 16 tie against St Pauli on Tuesday, or their next Bundesliga outing against Hoffenheim on January 22. But if we want to improve, if we want to start to put pressure on ourselves, it's the right time to have ambition and put ambition on ourselves. With the weather set fair, Spurs now need a run in the sun to match their manager's aims. To have talented and humble guys from the academy, full of quality, for whom it's their biggest dream to perform at Stamford Bridge, to perform in blue, to be part of a strong Chelsea team, that is so nice. Newcastle must pay €45m (£37.5m) to sign CarlosMeanwhile, Newcastle will be able to sign Diego Carlos if they offer Sevilla €45m (£37.5m) for the centre-back. But this wasn’t a normal season. The defeat to Frankfurt is extremely disappointing but ultimately this has to be a positive season for Barcelona. When you consider where they were under Ronald Koeman, to be where they are now under Xavi Hernandez is a big positive. He had a cut in his head and what excludes him, or made him come off, is the cut, said Bielsa. So if the cut is the most significant thing [rather than the knock] then I acted in accordance to that. “After being here 11 weeks I know what it takes for next season, but it’s not the time now to discuss this with everyone. My full focus is tomorrow, Sunday, Wednesday and the next couple of weeks. He saw out that season in League One before taking a giant professional leap into the Premier League. The fact Spurs had to bring on players to try to get something from the game, in terms of Son, Moura, Hojbjerg… just to bring them on was embarrassing. But the derby defeat and the 5-0 thrashing by Liverpool before that at Old Trafford fuelled the narrative that Solskjaer didn't have the tactical and managerial acumen required to take United to the very top.

PSG head coach Mauricio Pochettino would not confirm if the six-time Ballon d'Or winner will start against City in what is a repeat of last season's Champions League semi-final. Minamino’s impact on Merseyside, though, has been minimal. His contributions, to this point, have been limited to domestic cup matches, and he spent the second half of last season out on loan at Southampton. But his wonderful pass to Raheem Sterling for the opener against Everton topped the lot. Speaking to Manchester City head coach Pep Guardiola, the message is clear. Manchester United and Arsenal are reportedly on red alert after Leicester slashed their asking price for Youri Tielemans. Howe is then expected to dip into the market for a new central midfielder, while fresh forward reinforcements are also being sought now that Callum Wilson has been sidelined through serious injury. That is a huge worry as Teemu Pukki and Milot Rashica were both fit to start. The excuses are running out. For us to beat them over two legs is an incredible result. Yarmolenko had been granted compassionate leave after Russia's invasion of Ukraine and missed West Ham's 1-0 loss in the first leg in Spain due to illness. Maguire has missed United's previous two matches and although Raphael Varane is out with a groin injury, Solskjaer hinted the England defender may not be risked. County went ahead in the 14th minute through Ryan Haynes but Davis Keillor-Dunn levelled things up 14 minutes later. We started fantastic and were on the top and then when we stopped for the second international break I think we were fourth or fifth and no one talked about it. Indeed, the pair won numerous trophies together and despite Ronaldo having scored more times than Benzema, the Frenchman has dismissed the suggestion that he played a more superior role. In terms of the rest around the first-team group, we have put the ball in their court and said you will get opportunities if you show consistency in training and show a level that is better than someone who has your shirt. It is no science, it is nothing to make complicated. Origi) is an incredible striker and for different reasons he did not play that often, but I hope one day he finds a manager that plays him more than I do, Klopp said, after Origi made his 100th Liverpool appearance. Rangnick has previously indicated that reinstating the five substitutes rule would alleviate some pressure placed on squads because of Covid issues and a hectic winter playing schedule. Along with the likes of Lautaro Martinez, who himself scored later in the match on Thursday, Di Maria has given Messi a string of strong performances from his supporting cast.
