Allegri, 52, parted ways with Juventus following the club's eighth consecutive Serie A title in 2018-19 -- the fifth under his stewardship. I don't know if you can call it a sabbatical or not," Allegri told ESPN FC. As soon as the relationship with Juventus came to an end the decision was to take a year out.
We have to help him do that. He needs to feel fulfilled," added Arteta. The Arteta effect: Arsenal showing plenty of promise "Before I took over I had my questions about him but he's shown his commitment. I'm so happy with him. He is scoring important goals and as a captain he is giving a great example to everyone else with the way he's working defensively.
It's a great measure for us and test for us. We had a really good game at Anfield and we should have come out of that game with a draw. We're playing at home so the intensity of the crowd should help us as well. My message to the fans) would be to be as loud and as proud as possible. The synergy between the players and fans is important.
Then VAR took centre stage to deny Pukki, after the Norwich hitman had latched onto a long ball over the top before finishing well into the bottom corner. The offside call looked a very, very tight, to put it mildly. After the break, Eriksen picked a great time to score just his second league goal of the season, curling a brilliant free-kick into the net to level things up.
Rizespor is at this moment on a relegation place, having the same amount of points like the team on the first safe place. With a win in this game they can be out of the red zone. Goztepe is at the middle of the table without any worries, not fighting for European places. Both teams are not in the best form, but Rizespor have for what to fight. They won one points away at Sivasspor a couple of weeks ago, a team much stronger than today`s opponent. I think this match could end in a draw, so I`m going for the away team.
Lawro's prediction: 2-0James' prediction: 2-0 Chelsea v WolvesThis should be a good game. Chelsea need a point to be sure of making the Champions League, while Wolves can guarantee sixth place and qualification for the Europa League if they win. It's Chelsea I fancy here - I don't see Leicester getting anything out of Manchester United anyway, but Frank Lampard's side will take care of their own business.
Therefore it makes sense from Graham Potter to keep the purse strings tightened. It will be interesting to see the progress of the relatively unknown Chelsea academy product Tariq Lamptey. Ins: Aaron Mooy (Huddersfield, undisclosed), Tariq Lamptey (Chelsea, undisclosed) Outs: Anders Dreyer (Midtjylland, undisclosed), Max Sanders (AFC Wimbledon, loan), James Tilley (Grimsby Town, undisclosed), Tudor Baluta (ADO Den Haag, loan), Tom McGill (Crawley Town, loan), Tom McGill (Crawley, loan), Gaeten Bong (Nottingham Forest, undisclosed), Bojan Radulovic (Deportivo Alaves, loan) Net spend: £-9.

Injuries to Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son meant they played without a recognised striker, but it was again their defensive vulnerability which will concern Mourinho most. He has a tough task of lifting his team ahead of their FA Cup fifth round tie at home to Norwich on Wednesday night. MAN OF THE MATCH Diogo Jota (Wolves): The 23-year-old was at the heart of every Wolves attack.

Braithwaite made a promising debut off the bench against Alaves last weekend, assisting the last two goals. The Danish striker still has to prove that he can make a meaningful contribution at moments that matter, but he does offer the pace and directness which are otherwise lacking. Maintaining control or risking penetration? The top of La Liga before any of this weekend's gamesDecember's meeting was the first goalless draw between the teams since 2002, and this weekend's showdown could well be a similarly cagey affair.
KEY STATISTICS Bruno Fernandes has been involved in more Europa League goals than any other player this season, with the Portuguese netting six goals and providing four assists with Sporting CP and Manchester United combined. Odion Ighalo has scored in all three of his starts in all competitions for Manchester United, with the Nigerian netting four goals in total.
Considering that both teams are not playing on wanted level, at the begin of the season, they could have some slower performance here and game with more thinking about the defense. Regar is favorite here, but after losing match in the previous round, they are far away from wanted start and will not risk like in that one.
Rangers, Hibs and Motherwell all have loftier ambitions for their league campaign than Hearts' goal of survival. Instead of holding on for a point, the Tynecastle club were going for the win against third-placed Motherwell in the closing stages of Saturday's match. Despite being three adrift, signs are encouraging - although defensive frailties remain a thorn in head coach Daniel Stendel's side. Despite good work from Christopher Long, Craig Halkett's lack of concentration in conceding possession for Motherwell's opener had Hearts having to fight their way back.
Fourth-tier Saarbrucken's run to the German Cup semi-finals has contained several epic moments - but now they face a challenge that only a global pandemic could bring. The first team from outside the top three leagues to reach this stage host Bayer Leverkusen on Tuesday. It will be their first game in 94 days. Unlike the Bundesliga, which restarted on 16 May, the Regionalliga Sudwest has been ended prematurely with Saarbrucken, who were six points clear at the top, named as champions and promoted to 3 Liga.
Minnesota made it to this stage after finishing second in Group D. They progressed unbeaten by defeating Sporting Kansas City and drawing with both Real Salt Lake and Colorado Rapids. Columbus Crew didn't make much of a mark on the Eastern Conference last year, finishing tenth, the lowest placing in their history.

Tatung vs ntupes Taiwan league. In predictions this time I try to play with predictions over 3.5 full time goals. Almost all ball games from this league have always created a lot of goals.

Whatever comes we have to be ready for it,” the German international told BBC Radio 5 Live's Friday Football Social. It’s an extraordinary situation right now and extraordinary situations need extraordinary solutions. We see ourselves as top players and a top club and this is a chance for us to show that and deal with the situation as well as possible. It’s about when everything starts again but it doesn’t start when we are back in training (at the club), it has already started, that is how we should see it, so that we can play in all these things and be ready for every competition.
The Mourinho effect Frank Lampard's Derby County team knocked Jose Mourinho's Man Utd side out of the Carabao Cup last seasonSunday's match sees Lampard face Mourinho - who managed him during two spells in charge of Chelsea - for the first time in the Premier League. The pair previously enjoyed a profitable manager/player relationship, collecting two Premier League titles, an FA Cup and two EFL Cup winners medals together.
But that is likely to be dismissed as Rennes have a massive advantage in the upcoming transfer window: competition. Besides Barcelona and Real Madrid, Liverpool and Tottenham are also dreaming of snaring Camavinga. If Rennes (currently third) fail to qualify for the Champions League next season, it will be hard to hold him back.
Liverpool could be the right step for Werner On the other hand, this could turn out to be the perfect step for Werner, allowing him time to adapt to a new system and the way of playing in the Premier League in the shadow of the trio, without having to carry the full weight of Liverpool’s attacking expectation on his shoulders.
Ibrahimovic, who was a free agent after leaving Major League Soccer side LA Galaxy in November, said he received "more offers at 38 than when I was 20". I've been looking for one final rush of adrenaline to give it my all," he said as he marked his return to the Rossoneri. I received even more calls after the game against Atalanta [which Milan lost 5-0]. I didn't come here to be a Rossoneri mascot.

This is only but a friendly match but I think we will not see many goals scored . The team of saturn have the smaller odds to win this match but this team has played 2 matches in the last 3 days and this will be their 2nd match in 2 days. I think the team will not play with the same intensity as they did in thier last 2 matches. Volgograd 2 has played just 1 match which they drew 1-1 they also do not look a team who will score so much goals. We should not have more than 3 gaols

The striker, 26, has not played since a hamstring tear against Southampton on 1 January which required surgery, but has regained full fitness during lockdown. He is working extremely well, I can tell you no problem he is going to start the game," Mourinho said.
Aswan is just a newly promoted club in the first league level in Egypt in this start of the season and they are already inside the bottom zone of the league table as after 11 games played they have a record of just 1-4-6 in the league and not really a great home side either with a record of 1-1-3 at home they scored just 5 goals while they conceded no less than 10 goals.
Fortuna have also not been particularly impressive at home this season. They have won just two of their seven Bundesliga home games. However, they have been more successful in their home games versus teams in the bottom half of the table.
They duly responded with the most convincing display at Stamford Bridge in quite some time, with Hudson-Odoi and James terrorising the Burnley defence down the right flank. Hudson-Odoi was making just his fourth Premier League appearance of the season after suffering a serious Achilles injury last April.
Tottenham Hotspur are no strangers to Champions League miracles after the exploits in Amsterdam that took them to last season's final - now they need another one to overcome RB Leipzig in this last 16 tie. Jose Mourinho colourfully claimed Son Heung-min's broken arm had left them weakened and like a man clinging perilously to a fourth-floor balcony by his fingertips. It was an elaborate analogy to explain their current plight but this was a sobering night that may have fatally loosened Spurs' grip on their Champions League campaign.
The Women's Super League and Women's Championship seasons have been ended immediately, with the outcome of the WSL title and promotion and relegation issues still to be decided. The joint WSL and Women's Championship board has sent various recommendations to the Football Association board to "determine the most appropriate sporting outcome for the season". An FA statement said the decision came after "overwhelming feedback from clubs" and was made "in the best interest of the women's game".
Championship squads are set to return to training on Monday under strict protocols following a similar approach from Premier League clubs this week. Meanwhile, the EFL Board has drawn up a draft framework for how to determine promotion and relegation if any of their three divisions are curtailed. LIVE: How has coronavirus affected your club?EFL to keep promotion and relegationAn unweighted points-per-game method would decide final league placings, ensuring Leeds gain automatic promotion along with West Brom if they are unable to play any more games.
IN THE CHANNELS Love Island’s back!

Psychologically teams would be affected. We went to West Ham and they had moved the advertising boards in to stop him - so he just threw it from behind the boards.

I'll never wear a suit on the touchline' TP won 169 of his 464 games in charge of Stoke, across two spellsPulis also talks about signing Crouch from Tottenham, his near mythical naked fight with James Beattie, and his unlikely love for a Martina Navratilova cookbook.
The eye-watering sums explain why so much work is going into plans to complete all the competitions - and start next season's, including the logistical difficulty of organising 203 two-legged qualifying ties involving all 55 Uefa nations, to be completed before the middle of October. Despite speculation to the contrary, BBC Sport understands that for sporting, political and financial reasons, Uefa is committed to retaining the inclusivity of its competitions and would only cut access as a last resort.
