So is Mourinho the right man for Spurs?Can he work with Levy?Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is fulfilling an ambition by appointing Mourinho, who once revealed he had an offer from Spurs as far back as 2007, claiming they tried to agree compensation for a clause relating to his departure from Chelsea in 2006 that prevented him working in the Premier League for two years. He finally has his man but will he find - as others have - that while Mourinho may bring some of the success he craves, he is also a high-maintenance, boom-and-bust manager whose time in charge usually ends in tears.

It's a big win, we know there are big games to come and every game is tough," Villa boss Dean Smith said. Watford manager Nigel Pearson added: "Maybe this is a reality check if people thought the hard work had been done and it shows how quickly things can change. Bournemouth ended a woeful run of four defeats and 450 minutes without a league goal as Harry Wilson and Callum Wilson were both on the scoresheet in a 3-1 home win over a Brighton & Hove Albion side who are two points above the drop zone.
Returning to the match this afternoon, Ehime is a team that is not overestimated in terms of ability and last season was only lucky to stay in the relegation thanks to a 2-point gap between the red team. Meanwhile, Tokushima Vortis finished in the top 6 and got a ticket to the play-off promotion. However, this team did not take advantage of success and continue to accept life in the 2nd division.
Torino certainly look vulnerable, as they lost for the seventh time in 13 games last weekend. While Il Toro are fresh from their second away win of the campaign, that came against a Brescia side who are losing to almost everyone. It’s hardly much of an achievement, while their away record in recent seasons has been poor.

For some time, Burton were held back by a lack of goals at home. They were doing the business on the road, but finding the net was proving difficult at Pirelli Stadium. Fortunately, such a problem seems to be a thing of the past, as The Brewers have now notched seven goals in two matches in front of a home crowd. The floodgates appear to have opened.
Unsurprisingly then, Crystal Palace's matches are routinely low scoring affairs – in fact, under 2.5 goals were registered in 10 of their 15 league games in 2019/20, and in five of their most recent seven outings since early October.
Turkey team is at the leader place in their league, and they are hunting the first title in the competition in their history. however, with one goal scored in Portugal, and three conceded, they still have chance to try getting 2:0 here, and to make their way at the next level of the Europe league. Sporting went into the top form recently, but they even do not have to play draw here or to win, in order to get in the following round. Team should defend and probably seek for result that would fit them, even if make minimal loss here.
In fairness to Dale they've not had the easiest run of fixtures having faced the likes of Portsmouth, Coventry, Ipswich, Bristol Rovers and Oxford, all of whom are in the top ten, three of which are in the top six. Things may get better soon enough, though it's not as if they've been handed a gilt-edged opportunity here. Going away to face another of League 1's top six is not exactly what the doctor ordered after such a run of defeats.

Wenger's calls for the introduction of what has been dubbed a 'daylight' offside rule have since been backed by Fifa president Gianni Infantino.

When Liverpool's players emerge from the tunnel at Montgomery Waters Meadow, they will be forgiven for glancing over at the safe-standing section of Shrewsbury Town's home and wondering why the green, gold and red flag of Grenada billows proudly in the Shropshire breeze. The small Caribbean island with a population not much greater than that of the Midlands market town not only boasts three senior internationals among the League One side's squad but also, having flown in especially for the FA Cup fourth-round fixture, one of the club's newest and most ardent supporters.

This could prove to be a really big win for Ulsan as they do not stop attacking even at 3-0 in away games when they have such a lead best example being 3 rounds ago when they played away from home at Pohang and won the game with 4-0 in the end while they also kept two more clean sheets in their next two games first winning 1-0 at home with Seongnam which is a really defensive minded side, and last round they played away at Gangwon who beat Jeonbuk 1-0 at home earlier this season and the score 0-0 till quite late in the game but Ulsan in a short amount of time scored 3 goals in a row to win 3-0 even there.

One of the networks broadcasting Belarusian matches is Ukraine's Sport-1. Although it began broadcasting the league late last year - prior to the coronavirus outbreak - because many Ukrainians play in Belarus, viewers have been surprised by Belarusian league's quality.

We won't be helping football if the wealth we generate goes straight to the big clubs. If leagues in places such as eastern Europe or Greece have financial problems it will lead to the collapse of our industry. Creating new competitions is not the answer as the money will not benefit grassroots football, it will go to 10 or 15 major clubs.
Rangers haven't won a cup game against Celtic in normal time for some years, but that may not bother them, as they too come into this game in fine form. Rangers haven't lost a competitive fixture since their Europa League defeat against Young Boys back in the first week of October. Since then they've won eight and drawn four. They recently beat a very useful Porto side, so they're no back number in this fixture.
