City assistant boss Mikel Arteta will still be part of the coaching set-up despite holding talks with Arsenal about their managerial vacancy. Boss Pep Guardiola is expected to make numerous changes from his regular Premier League starting line-up. Centre-back John Stones (hamstring), striker Sergio Aguero (thigh) and playmaker David Silva (knock), will not feature, so youngsters including Tommy Doyle, Adrian Bernabe, Ian Carlo Poveda-Ocampo and Taylor Harwood-Bellis could get the chance to impress.

Anyone who is thinking about gaining an advantage by training their players, I don’t know what they have in their minds,” Damiano Tommasi wrote on the AIC website.

Despite all the adulation that was showered upon Harry, he was very much a private man," said Beckett, who is a patron of the Harry Gregg Foundation. A humble man, a modest man, a man of integrity, a man of principle and he was most happy when he was among family. He loved kids, so he set up the foundation to provide a proper structured platform for kids to be able to go out and play the game that he loved.

Crystal Palace forward Wilfried Zaha admits he is "scared" to check his social media accounts because of racial abuse. Zaha was subject to racist messages earlier this month and a 12-year-old boy was arrested before being released under investigation. The Ivory Coast international says he reported 50 accounts to police. Every time I'm scared to even look up my direct messages because it could be filled with anything," he told CNN.
Gareth Bale has said he would consider a move to Major League Soccer in America if he leaves Real Madrid. Bale has not been a regular under Zinedine Zidane and the 30-year-old almost left last year, but his move to China's Jiangsu Suning fell through. The Wales forward's wages - reportedly £600,000 a week - could be the biggest hurdle preventing a move to the MLS. I would definitely be interested in it," Bale told the ICC's 'The Hat Trick' podcast.

Some clubs such as third-placed Inter, who have had two games postponed, feel that they are at a sporting disadvantage to those who have not had any games called off. Inter have dropped eight points behind leaders Lazio, who have played twice and won both games in the same period, and are six adrift of Juventus, who have played once since the restrictions were introduced.
I believe that odds on this match tomorrow will be smaller and I will take this bet earlier, on goals, what is pretty ok, and very real. So, Maritimo U23 is in last round lost in league even 0-4, and in the same time, they are played in last three matches with three or more goals, 0-4, 1-2 and 3-2. Rival, or in this case Vitoria Setubal is similar team who is won in last round 4-0 and they are team who is in last period almost in all matches with three or more goals. Over is ok for me.
Paper Round’s view: A handful of clubs including Barcelona and Atletico Madrid have arranged their own deals with players in order to make sure staff are paid and to make sure their finances are not tipped into chaos, but unless an organised move is made across the league, other clubs could find themselves in desperate trouble and at risk of being stripped by more financially secure clubs.
Strangely enough, Southend have claimed more points away from home than they have at Roots Hall, but that's nothing for Shrimpers fans to get excited about as their side has been awful both home and away. Five points from a possible 30 on the road is anything but desirable, that's for sure.

Liverpool are a good team, European winners and respect to them. But we have won the Premier League twice in a row. So, in terms of consistency Man City are a better team, we just need to get that last one in Europe now just to show everyone.

It was poor defending from City full back Benjamin Mendy that handed Wolves the equaliser with less than ten minutes remaining. The Frenchman in trying to usher the ball out for a goal kick was robbed by Traore, who zipped a low pass across the goal to Raul Jimenez, who slotted home. The dramatic winner came in the 89th minute when Matt Doherty weaved his way through the City defence before poking a left-foot shot past Bravo.

What did the EFL say?The EFL told the BBC: "Club owners are fully aware of the current financial regulations in place and are cognisant of the risks that such an increase in outgoings can have on sustainability. Clubs, however, must be given the freedom and flexibility to strive for success within the parameters of the regulations. It should also be remembered that 'operating profits' are not the primary aim of most professional clubs, with owners opting to compete for success in what is an increasingly competitive marketplace.

Given that there's an entire division (and then some) separating the teams, Cardiff will have been disappointed to not walk away as winners when the pair met in Wales less than fortnight ago, and not least because they dominated in terms of possession, shots and shots on target. Then again, their performance will allow them to feel confident ahead of this fixture.

But with what has been happening, I'm sure that Mbappe's arrival at Real Madrid will be postponed. There is no way that Mbappe will extend his contract with PSG. They will have an agreement between them in place because PSG agreed to let him go this summer. In my opinion, it's just a question of time.
Alli's startling upturn in form is about Mourinho. Sources at Tottenham say Mourinho has changed very little thus far. He occasionally stays in the overnight accommodation at Spurs' training ground but that will not become a parody of itself as the Portuguese's two-and-a-half-year residence at the Lowry Hotel in Manchester did. However, tweaks have taken place. Mourinho does not favour the high press Pochettino liked, so the training intensity will not be the same.
Paper Round's view: Inter are gunning for glory this season. They are looking like the best Inter Milan side since their treble-winning season back in 2010 and Antonio Conte is deserving all the plaudits he gets. His 352 system features the exceptional partnership of attacking duo Romelu Lukaku and Lautaro Martinez, but imagine how lethal the side could be with Christian Eriksen involved too.

That would see the 72-year-old enter a 45th year as a manager - and a fourth with the Eagles, whom he joined early in the 2017-18 campaign with the club rock-bottom after taking no points from their opening seven matches. Tying ex-England boss Hodgson down to an extra year was an obvious decision for Palace chairman Steve Parish, given Hodgson's consistent ability to guide the club clear of end-of-season relegation scraps, with 11th and 12th place finishes in last two years.
United grabbed a seventh minute lead when Spurs defender Davinson Sanchez came off second best in a tussle with Jesse Lingard and the ball fell to Rashford, who confidently unleashed a low drive which rattled in off the post.

It has been fantastic to follow Marcus throughout the lockdown period," he said.
Chelsea's chances of ensuring they will be in Europe's top tournament next season, though, did suffer a setback after Bournemouth responded to Alonso's first-half goal with two in three second-half minutes from Jefferson Lerma and Josh King.
