At the start of the summer we were looking for an experienced goalkeeper and brought in Tom Heaton. Unfortunately, his injury has ruled him out for the rest of the season but Pepe fits our criteria not just because of his experience but also because of his leadership qualities. Milan have replaced Reina with Bournemouth stopper Asmir Begovic, who also joins on loan until the end of the season.
Both teams scored in five of Heerenveen’s last six matches and Vitesse have only kept two clean sheets in their last six attempts. Both teams scored in 71% of Heerenveen’s home games and in 43% of Vitesse’s away games this season, so you can start to see just why we have backed goals to be scored by both side on Friday night.
Rob Green: Jordan Henderson (3)De Bruyne gets an honourable mention because he is a brilliant talent but, as a professional, what you don't see from the outside is the people who make the dressing room tick, and keep the team driving forward. Henderson has done that with a team that didn't stop until they won the league. Media playback is not supported on this device Liverpool's Jordan Henderson on how manager Jurgen Klopp celebrated with his players It has been a long road for him and he has had to win a lot of people over - even now he still gets that flak occasionally where people question his merits.

The best player at the Euro U19 tournament last summer, Torres has developed into one of Valencia’s most important players. Speed, dribbling and a taste for the spectacular, the supersonic winger has everything to attract crowds and delight big clubs. Above all, his contract expires in 2021 – meaning Valencia must hit the jackpot this summer.

Overall, at home, John Coleman's men are a useful side. Defensively, they're not up there with the sharpest League 1 teams, but they're not the worst either. While they very much fit into the middle-of-the-road pack defensively, Stanley are among League 1's best at the other end. Only two teams have notched more home goals than Accrington, who've scored a pleasing 24 times in 11 matches at Crown Ground. They've scored multiple goals in seven of those 11.
By contrast Liverpool were already wobbling. They needed a late Daniel Sturridge goal to see off Southampton at Anfield in their opening match before getting resoundingly thumped 3-1 at the Etihad by the champions. Yet this was a fixture Liverpool dominated the season prior, scoring nine unanswered goals, and, in Brendan Rodgers’ 100th match in charge they notched three more to bring Spurs and Pochettino back down to earth.
It was captain-for-the-night Jesse Lingard who steered United ahead after 10 minutes with his first goal for the club since January. But moments after Tahith Chong spurned a brilliant chance to put United 2-0 up in the second half, Dmitry Shomko levelled for the hosts before Bernard’s own goal gave Astana the lead.
The credibility off FFP lies in tatters. After all, how can FFP survive after one of the world's richest clubs, having been found guilty of obstructing a Uefa investigation, a club that was found to have breached the rules in 2014, walk away with just a 10m euros fine?Many will wonder what kind of deterrent that sets for other clubs, especially clubs with such financial resources. It shows how difficult it has become for governing bodies to enforce the rules.
Aston villa host a fierce hotspur in need of a win today in their quest for champions league football. Hotspur are a point behind Sheffield and the advantage hotspur have is a game that can potentially place them in fifth place a point above sheff wed. And they will be seeking redemption for the 2 consecutive losses they faced in their last five matches. Aston villa on the other hand are a whisker away from returning to the relegation zone if they get to lose this match hence they will be motivated to shock hotspurs. Two goals to be expected
FC Millwall welcomes Wigan Athletic, both team are playing for something very important, the host need a place to qualify for the Championship Final round for promotion while the visitors are eager to move out around relegation zone. Millwall are 10th in the league with 24 points from 17 matches, scoring 20 goals against 22, winning in all 6 matches, 6 draws and 5 games lost. Wigan Athletic are playing very poor and in a very down form, 3 straight lost game, 20th in the league with 15 points from 17 matches, scoring 14 goals against 26, winning in all 4 matches, 3 draws and 10 lost games. The home team has more quality here.
Tianjin, Chongqing, Chengdu, Xi'an, Dalian, Qingdao, Xiamen and Suzhou will be the other host cities for the 18th edition of the continent's premier competition that will be held in June and July, 2023. The AFC Asian Cup is our flagship competition for national teams, and I am sure that the Chinese FA and the selected host cities will deliver a tournament which is in keeping with the event's world-class status," AFC president Sheikh Salman bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa said in a statement.
Both sides had their chances, with Leicester City keeper Kasper Schmeichel saving well from Marcus Rashford in the first half and Jamie Vardy seeing a header glance off the frame of the goal after the break. Leicester pressed could not break Manchester United down and their misery was compounded when Evans was sent off against his former club for a wild, late lunge on Scott McTominay. Manchester United confirmed the formalities seconds from time when substitute Jesse Lingard robbed Schmeichel and rolled the ball into an empty net.
The Dutch star initially made a positive impact at the north London side before they eventually dropped out of the Football League. Davids stayed at the club, assigning himself the number one shirt (who could forget?), but was sent off three times as the Bees spent a season in mid-table. As part of his contract, he reportedly negotiated a clause that meant he didn't have to manage a game where an overnight stay beforehand was necessary - assistant Ulrich Landvreugd would take charge instead.
Fleetwood is not in good shape at all and after they failed to win for 5 straight games at home they are now closer to the Shrewsbury on the middle of the table then to the playoffs and today it is pretty much must win game for them cause teams are getting away from them and it is not going to be was at all cause visitors are very tough team to beat but I will risk with Fleetwood and I think one goals could be enough for them to get win and 3 points, but I don't recommend this
Meanwhile, manager Emery is facing fresh questions over his job at Emirates Stadium this week, after a number of fan groups called for "urgent action" to be taken over the club's struggles in the league. I know some teams come here and are fearless against us and we need to be strong for our supporters but first we need to reconnect with them," he said. But really, my wish is tomorrow that the supporters and every supporter helps the team because we need them.

Giving joy to Liverpool fans during coronavirus pandemic"It means absolutely everything to me. It's the only reason why we play football. This city is a very emotional city that went through a lot of hard times, like the club had to go through, and having these good moments is essential. Having a successful football team in a city always lifts the mood in a city so it helps everything. At this moment in time, in the biggest crisis our generation has probably ever had, it's so important that we don't forget that there is something we can really look forward to.
Despite being a man down the Brazilians doubled their lead 17 minutes into the second half through Gerson. Independiente's Alejandro Cabeza was sent off four minutes from time before Gerson scored Flamengo's third with just seconds left to seal the win for the Rio de Janeiro side. Flamengo also won the Copa Libertadores and Brazilian league in November in what has been their most successful season for decades.
Despite having obvious talent, Benfica haven't had a good time in the Champions League with just one win and, although they can still qualify from Group G, they need to win both of their final games to stand a chance. Qualification to the Europa League looks a lot more likely with their final group game against Zenit looking like it could be a decider over who enters Europe's second competition at the round of 32.
