It is anything to help the team. We are here – we wanted to come here, we wanted to get to the final and we want to win. We have done the first bit by getting to the final and now we want to win it. That’s the mentality of this team. We found a way to win again in the end. We are there, where we wanted to be, and hopefully we will find a way to win again on Saturday, too.

Manchester City strolled through the game and it was far too easy," he added. There have to be questions asked about Ljungberg now - they are worse than under Emery and they are going backwards. They need to make some decisions quickly and put Ljungberg out of his misery. He looks like a rabbit in the headlights. Get someone in who has some clout. The decision-makers will have watched the game and seen the difference in class.

I think it's muscular. Rodri and David Silva both were withdrawn earlier in the second half, but this move was precautionary with the City boss minded to manage their workloads as they return from injury. Rodri and David had problems with cramp and being tired - Rodri one-and-half months without playing games, David needs rhythm and these games are so demanding," Guardiola said.

Defenders Nathan Ake, Steve Cook, Chris Mepham, captain Simon Francis, England midfielder Lewis Cook, £13m signing Arnaut Groeneveld and forward Joshua King have all had lengthy absences. If Bournemouth need inspiration they should look at what happened three years ago.

Sensible management' - analysis Media playback is not supported on this device Cluj v Celtic: Meet Romania's Celtic Supporters Club Former Celtic striker Craig Beattie on BBC Radio Scotland's SportsoundThis is a really unusual situation and Celtic have worked really hard to put themselves in this position where they can afford to leave the quality of those players at home. You've got the like of Sinclair, Bitton and Olivier Ntcham all needing minutes and, to be able to do that in a competitive Europa League match, is unbelievable as well as taking Robertson and Dembele along for experience.
That might be the answer to our original question. Vardy’s inflexion point might have come the summer after he won the league, when he turned down a move to Arsenal. From that point onwards it felt as if Vardy was written off, we were told he had missed his chance for the big time and before long he would be yesterday’s news as his pace eventually deserted him.
Chelsea's Olivier Giroud has scored seven Premier League goals against Liverpool; only versus Aston Villa and Newcastle (both eight) has he netted more in the competition. Christian Pulisic has scored nine Premier League goals for Chelsea this season; among American players, only Clint Dempsey (17 in 2011-12 and 12 in 2010-11) has ever scored more in a campaign - his goal was the 1,000th scored in this season's Premier League.
United will be favourites in hosting this game but we are expecting Ole to play out a young inexperienced side. All United need to qualify is a draw, meaning both sides have already qualified. We are backing a 1-1 draw here.

It will be a match in the championship group, i.e. the fight for European cups. Due to the equal level of both teams I bet on a draw.
There's no doubt City have enough money and a fleet of lawyers to take this on for years, so Uefa is being put under the spotlight. We've seen the integrity of the FFP system challenged before, but this could be about the entire make-up of football's regulatory regime, so the repercussions are enormous. The tone of City's outrage in their statements, and the sense of defiance and confidence now emerging from the club, should be seen in this context - not just as an expression of anger and shock by owners and executives who have become accustomed to getting their own way, but perhaps also as a strategy designed to send a message to Uefa.
People have told me already I wouldn't respect the Cup. It's not true, but my first job is to respect the players," Klopp said. I've got to decide if it's allowed to play them again. Newcastle United -- losing four players (to injury) in one game -- and not think 'this is crazy'?"

At River, where he starred as a player, Gallardo has an almost god-like status. In his first season in charge in 2014, the softly-spoken 43-year-old led them to the Copa Sudamericana, South America’s equivalent of the Europa League. A year later, he led them to the Libertadores title for the first time in almost two decades.

Here comes a match in the second league in Romania where UTA Arad meets Concordia Chiajna. The home team plays much better this season and I think it is a big favorite in this duel. It is in the first place in the league with 35 points and 33-12 in goal difference, after 17 games played. The guests are inferior and are at the bottom of the table with 21 points and 15-20 in goal difference. I don't think the guests have any chance in this duel because the home team has a much better team. From that, my suggestion will be 1. Congratulations to everyone!

China has consistently denied mistreating Uighur Muslims in the country. Rights groups say about a million people - mostly from the Muslim Uighur community - are thought to have been detained without trial in high-security prison camps. China says they are being educated in "vocational training centres" to combat violent religious extremism. In October, the US National Basketball Association suffered financial losses after an online comment from a team executive prompted a crisis in its relations with China.

This was a Real team so talented that they could afford to leave Didi out of the squad. Didi had been voted player of the tournament when his Brazil team won the World Cup two years earlier. He won another World Cup in 1962. Good enough for Brazil, but not good enough for Real. Eintracht never give up that night. Stein made it 6-2 before Di Stefano claimed his hat-trick. Then Stein scored again to make it 7-3.
But more than anything, clubs, especially in the non-league, could die" When people talk about no Premier League, well what about ones who rely on football, have put their life into it? I relate to this because I started in the lower leagues and I managed in non-leagues and I feel sorry for them. It’s all well and good a lot of these Premier League clubs not getting their gate receipts, but they’re still earning off everything that goes with them as a club with their marketing tools.

They go into the weekend in eighth place and that is four places and the same number of points above their opponents. Parma are in good form at present with only one loss in their last six league games. That defeat was a home loss to Verona who have won three of their last four league matches, so not a disgrace to lose to them.

Life under boss Danny Cowley was pretty nice for fans of Lincoln City as he led the Imps to a couple of promotions and even got some silverware for the trophy cabinet. However, with Lincoln now in League One, it seems clear that Cowley thought he had taken them as far as he could and he left on for pastures new. But what of Lincoln now that he has gone?
He didn't go (to the U. S. Palace. He has been training and is in contention," Lampard told a news conference on Friday. Winger Callum Hudson-Odoi is a doubt for the match due to a hamstring issue he picked up on international duty with England.

Jesse Lingard has failed to score in the Premier League this season, while Anthony Martial has not netted in seven out of nine games in 2020On his own, it is hard to see Ighalo changing the narrative of a season. The same is true of Fernandes, who had three of United's five shots on target against Wolves, and made a definite improvement without being a game changer. I told him to 'be yourself, don't change your character, try to get on the ball, make things happen'," said Solskjaer.

Greenwood's goal was the pick of the bunch, the 18-year-old thumping home left-footed from 25 metres after pouncing on a mistake by Newcastle's defence. Mason (Greeenwood) is a great striker of the ball. You know he is going to hit the target more times than not," Solskjaer said. The way he strikes it is nice to see and he is so unfazed by whatever happens.

We have different challenges and it's tough for everybody. Solskjaer said his players need to be focused. He said: "The pitch is not great but that's the same for both of us.

FRIDAY’S BIG HEADLINES Young heads for Inter Antonio Conte must still be raw about the time Jose Mourinho dug him out for having three hair transplants.
