Guardiola said despite the ban, City's players remain fully committed and focused on the rest of the season. City were banned from European competition for the next two seasons and fined £25 million by European soccer's governing body UEFA last week after an investigation into alleged breaches of Financial Fair Play rules.
Giroud famously performed a similar role with France in their 2018 World Cup triumph, acting as the foil for the likes of Antoine Griezmann who were playing off him. Giroud is older now and Chelsea don’t have the players of Hazard or Griezmann’s calibre on their books but he seems a fantastic option to help players like Callum Hudson-Odoi and Mason Mount as they adjust to regular life in the Premier League.

I do it naturally. People want to work with good people. As long as you are a good man, you have good manners and want to bring the best from the players, the players will like you. I am very happy with my progression right now, working with Brendan Rodgers. I am learning a lot. When the time comes, everybody will feel it.
Newcastle have introduced a training ground handshake ban because of coronavirus, says manager Steve Bruce. More than 80,000 people have been infected by the virus worldwide, resulting in nearly 2,800 deaths. There's a ritual that everybody shakes hands when we see each other every morning - we've stopped that on the advice of the doctor," said Bruce. Thankfully, we've got a superb doctor here and he will keep us informed of what we have to do.
The games are going to come thick and fast for Premier League teams between now and the final kick of the season. One wrong result could have a club spiralling. We foresee these two clubs sussing one another out. Place your bet on a draw.
As we hit the half-way point of the season, it’s fair to say this is Maurizio Sarri’s Juventus now. The former Chelsea boss wasn’t exactly the kind of character you’d expect to follow Antonio Conte and Max Allegri, who both put winning first – which Juventus have always done. They accepted the risk brought with Sarri’s style of play, while the positives and negatives have been clear so far, with both teams scoring in five of their last six in the league.

Newcastle have struggled both in attack and defence this season, scoring just 12 and conceding 27 as teams regularly beat them with ease. They’ve conceded three or more goals in a third of their matches this season and have kept just two clean sheets. Their games have seen have average of 3.3 goals per game this season but their output has been just one per game on average.
Balestier Khalsa were playing a high scoring football in the previous season in Singapore. They have scored 37 goals in 24 games played but they were very weak in defense and have allowed 58 goals in total.
Meanwhile, there's a clash that would not be out of place in the Champions League as Bayer Leverkusen face Porto. Ajax draw Getafe Last season's Champions League semi-finalists draw Getafe. Meanwhile, we've got Sporting Lisbon v Istanbul Basaksehir. Wolves first out of the hat, take on Espanyol Wolves are the first team out in the Europa League round of 32 draw and they trip to Barcelona to face Espanyol.
Heerenveen haven’t lost at home this season, but have drawn five of those seven matches, while Vitesse have picked up 10pts on the road this season. Heerenveen average 1.57 points per home games and Vitesse average 1.43 points per away game, all of which points towards a draw as the most likely outcome on Friday.
Plus I just think Liverpool are very difficult to stop at the moment. The word I would use to describe them is 'clinical', and they showed that again in Qatar. Lawro is making predictions for all 380 top-flight matches this season, against a variety of guests. For the games on 26 and 27 December, he is up against singer-songwriter and Sheffield Wednesday fan Richard Hawley, whose latest album 'Further' is out now.
It is a huge opportunity lost, both from the perspective of the gains made at the top level off the back of last summer's World Cup and also the impact it will have lower down, on younger players. I had a great moment when the band went on Soccer AM last year," Greenwood said. There was this volley challenge and somehow, through an act of god, it just fell perfectly for me and I got it in the top-left corner.
So it is a shame to see some Premier League clubs furloughing staff, when it seems avoidable. The scheme was not brought in to help companies who have made millions of pounds in the past few years. It was meant for smaller businesses who could go bust, and whose staff might not have a job to go back to otherwise. Liverpool have already reversed their decision over the weekend to furlough some non-playing staff, but there are other Premier League clubs who do not come out of this too well with the decision they have made and, so far, stuck with.
England striker Marcus Rashford said he would fight on after the government confirmed it would not provide free school meal vouchers during the summer. The Manchester United player wrote an emotional open letter to MPs in which he said "the system isn't built for families like mine to succeed". But the Department for Education said it would not reverse its decision. Rashford, 22, responded by tweeting "we aren't beaten yet" and "MPs, please #maketheUturn".
Earlier this month the Spanish Super Cup was also staged there. Staveley helped broker the purchase of Manchester City by Sheikh Mansour in 2008 and it was reported that she led Dubai International Capital's £400m bid for Liverpool in 2008. Ashley, 55, has been a divisive figure at St James' Park, with some supporters regularly protesting about the way the businessman has run the club. He bought Newcastle for £134.
Willem and Zwolle will face each other in the upcoming match in the Eredivisie. Willem this season have the following results: 11W, 3D and 5L. Meanwhile Zwolle have 5W, 2D and 12L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.

The first match against Phase 1 Apertura in Nicaragua this season, Walter Ferretti easily won with a score of 4-1 against Juventus Managua. It was also the third match in a row that Juventus Managua could not win against rival Walter Ferretti (lost 2, drew 1).
Well I take this bet not only because both teams have been quite defensive minded in their recent friendly games for example Trinec lost just 1-0 away at a solid Slovacko side having an excellent season in the first league level, but Chrudim themselves do not score too many goals and also do not concede too many goals and this is just what happened when these two sides met in the first part of the season at Chrudim who won the game with just 1-0 in the end.

In the last 3 away games played by Gzira they have scored no less than 11 goals while they conceded just 2 goals as they even defeated the best club from this country which we usually see in the Champions League La Valletta with 3-1 on the road another 3-1 win for them on the road as well as a 5-0 win at Tarxien and they even beat Hajduk Split in the Europa League this season with 3-1 in Croatia and qualified further from that time so I trust that we can see at least 3 goals being scored here.
Fernandes: He started slowly but by the end of the match was running the show for Manchester United again. There was so much about Bruno Fernandes' game that I liked against Crystal Palace but the ball through the legs of Luka Milivojevic which set up the goal for Anthony Martial was just wonderful. Since his arrival from Sporting Lisbon the Portugal international has become a star at United. It's hard to fathom why Fernandes' arrival has transformed the performances of so many players.
Ferretti dominated the previous game at home and destroy 7:0 their opponents. They played super offensive football and that's why they scored so many goals. They play well at home and always scored at least one goal. Only a match against Managua has ended with the result of 0:1. Real Esteli has a chance to get on the top of the league if they beat Ferretti. They play well on away but today I expect a tough task for them. They are better but if Ferretti will play as offensive as in the previous game we would see many goals. I pick over 2.5 goals here

We must encourage home workouts and healthy immune-boosting nutritional plans. We need meal plans and the necessary vitamins we should be taking to boost our immune systems.

Saturday's Superliga Argentina action sees Boca Juniors doing battle with Argentinos Juniors at La Bombonera. The hosts arrive as big favourites to secure all 3 points and will be looking to do exactly that.
I never really tensed up when I got chances,” said Solskjaer. For me there’s no such thing as a great save, it’s just a bad finish. Solskjaer prided himself on the intensity and authenticity of his finishing practice. In training, even though it looks stupid sometimes, I always do things at match pace,” he told the Manchester United Opus.
The Jambos have struggled in their travels this season and have also lost in their last 2 away days. The Edinburgh club has also failed to score in any of their last 4 trips, bringing their average goals for down to a measly 0.71 for the season, with the club failing to score in 57% of away trips. Moreover, Hearts have conceded 1.57 times and have kept a clean sheet in just 23% of their overall games.
I think that Sporting is have better chances to win in this duel from Europa League tonight and that is pretty real to expect, but we will see what will happen. So, Sporting Lisbon is team who is maybe this season not so strong, like in few earlier seasons, but they are probably still better than PSV Eindhoven. In first match of this two rivals, PSV was better in Holland, 3-2, in very interesting match and I think that this duel will be similar and also very efficient. Over is ok here and I will take that. It is very real.
The league leaders go in search of another three points this weekend, while their run of high scoring home games could be extended. The Baggies have averaged over four goals in total per game this season, with both teams scoring in 100% of their home games. To have that form behind them and still top the table shows how strong West Brom are in attack.
Immobile will need to hit the ground running again to keep a determined Ronaldo off his back. Lazio have already got the better of Juventus this season Lazio beat Juventus in Saudi Arabia in December last year to win the Italian Super CupThe first part of the season may feel like it happened before the last ice age but nevertheless, Lazio have already got the better of Juventus in the current campaign.
But you look to the goals and they are not a consequence of any superiority. The first goal is a short corner with a big mistake. We know how to defend short corners, we train how to deal with short corners. The players involved were not focused. Mourinho admitted VAR was correct to award Chelsea their penalty despite referee Anthony Taylor not giving it but said Son's red card, also awarded via VAR, was harsh.
I think a lot of footballers were wondering, 'Is it something to do with money being involved in this?' Thankfully football made the right call in the end. We had to put the season on hold. If people's lives are at risk, that has to come first. Rooney, currently at second-tier Derby County, also proposed restructuring the fixture calendar once football resumed.
I could easily lay aside my personal disappointment at missing the final, for in truth it was an honour to captain the team that delivered for a great manager and a great club. Solskjaer cherishes a picture of him and Ferguson, taken in the dressing-room after the game. I will always remember thinking at that moment: ‘You deserve this – you deserve so much to win the Champions League’.
Sporting gijon had some mixed results in their previous matches. They have won 2, lost 2 and drawn 1 of their last 5 matches. They are coming from a goalless draw against real Oviedo. They sit on 16th spot after 16 fixtures and they are slightly in better position than their opponent here.
As such, this achievement is probably more likely than many people realise. Even Arsenal’s Invincibles never gained the machine-like efficiency that Liverpool have generated in terms of dominating matches and never looking in danger. Probability: 3 out of 5 3. The Treble Manchester United clinched the Treble in BarcelonaPA Sport By far the most unlikely of the triple crown given that Liverpool may find more of a challenge in Europe’s top teams than they have found in England’s, and the Champions League last-16 sees them pitted against a problematic Atletico Madrid side.
