Lamouchi celebrates anniversaryForest's win to consolidate their place in the play-offs came a year to the day since Frenchman Lamouchi replaced Martin O'Neill as boss. Under O'Neill, who won two European Cups with Forest as a player and lasted less than six months on his much-heralded return as manager, the club finished ninth in the table and eight points off the play-off spots. Lamouchi arrived at the City Ground as the Reds' 13th full-time boss in just over eight years.
That scoring record has to be a boost to the home side, who are aiming to secure promotion this term. They haven’t disappointed in attack at home, with 19 goals in their 11 matches at Griffin Park so far. They’ve scored in each of their last five matches ahead of this encounter, while they should punish a Swansea side who have one clean sheet in nine.
We can – and I am not saying we will do – but we can win it next season. Humble Mourinho " I am humble. I am humble enough to try to analyse my career. Not just the last year, to analyse my career, its evolution. The problems and the solutions. I was humble enough for that. The principle of the analysing was not to blame anyone else.
Everton is not really shy at all at attacking since Ancelotti came in charge and they do have plenty of quality players in both midfield but also in attack with which they score goals recently and create plenty of scoring chances at the same time. Let me just tell you some of their recent games as they lost last round 3-2 away from home at Arsenal with the score being 2-2 by half-time of the game, won 3-2 at Watford where it is really not that easy to score never mind to win as Liverpool lost their first game in the league there yesterday losing the game with 3-0 in the end so they are quite decent up-front.
But Higuain drew Juventus level when his shot took a fortuitous deflection off a defender to wrong-foot the goalkeeper with little over quarter of an hour remaining. Higuain swept in a finish from Juan Cuadrado’s low cross to put Juve in front eight minutes later, but the Atalanta players were furious that an apparent handball from the Colombian in the build-up went unpunished.
I automatically I expected the video assistant referee to come in," he said. He's probably thought: 'We have the technology in place. Why do we need to make a decision?' and that is the fundamental flaw. Technology is there to help, it is not there to make the final decision. The VAR has let the referee Michael Oliver down. If he had checked the goal, we would not be talking about it now. Referees can make mistakes; the VAR can't, because he has all the evidence there.
You can say that players should be tougher – and I agree with that – but old school management doesn’t work anymore. Mourinho should see that and adapt, but he doesn’t seem to want to go down that road. You can’t call people out in the press. It wasn’t done in my time by managers and you definitely can’t do it today.
Pep Guardiola’s men still have a more than respectable record, winning four of their last seven in the league and winning six of their nine home league games this season. However, it’s just not on the same level as Liverpool’s performances.
Feyenoord host Rangers on Thursday in the sides' second meeting in Europa League Group I, with Rangers having beaten the Dutch side at Ibrox September. It is Rangers' first visit to De Kuip since losing 4-3 on aggregate in the Uefa Cup in 2002 during Alex McLeish's spell as manager.

Klopp said it was the "only solution" Liverpool could find and described it as a "very exciting opportunity for us". In the last few years we got kicked out of the cup competitions with our first team, but this year we have given the youngsters the opportunity, they showed up against Arsenal and that is what we expect," Klopp said.
Varane added his name to the scoresheet in the second half, powering home a header from a Toni Kroos freekick delivery. Courtois continued to frustrate the hosts who had enough chances to win this themselves, but Luka Modric added the finishing touches in stoppage time, joining Fede Valverde on a counter to finish into an empty net.

Alexandre Lacazette equalised just 10 minutes later, slamming home a strike from inside the penalty box after Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s initial effort from a Kieran Tierney cross had been blocked.

The best we can say for it is nothing unexpected really happened.

No doubt, the visitors have a very difficult task. After all, they will try to pick up at least one point.
The German striker is 23 years old and definitely has the ability and determination to become a world-class footballer. The only thing which could put Werner off joining Anfield would be the challenge of battling against the best to feature regularly in this Liverpool side. Salah, Mane and Firmino are currently immovable in the Liverpool attack, which could be intimidating for the Bundesliga striker.
The stakes are high' - why Man City v Uefa is a watershed momentMan City's European ban Q&ACas arbitration procedures involve an exchange of written submissions between the parties while a panel of arbitrators is convened to hear the appeal. The independent adjudicatory chamber of the Club Financial Control Body (CFCB) said it found City had broken the rules by "overstating its sponsorship revenue in its accounts and in the break-even information submitted to Uefa between 2012 and 2016", adding that the club "failed to cooperate in the investigation".
Should we be ashamed of our success? To be considered by many as the most important sports organisation in the world?" he asked the assembled delegates from 55 European countries.

Norwich have shown improved home form of late but are still in deep relegation trouble. Goals are in short supply in the Premier League and there have only been three scored in their last three home league matches. Southampton had a good run of form but are in a slump at present with only four goals in their last five league matches. They need to get back into winning ways or could end up in a relegation battle. Go for under 2.5 goals to be scored in this match.
Augsburg will host Borussia Dortmund for this fixture of the league. Of course, the visitors are favorites in this game. Borussia are more ambitious team in this league. I think, they will try to make a positive result. Nevertheless, this will not be an easy task. Also, we have Augsburg who's is very average team in this season. The hosts have less potential in attack. I expect, they will pay attention on their defense. In any case, the hosts will try to capitalize advantage on their pitch. Augsburg is better team at home. They have three consecutive victories. I think, the hosts will try to provide a strong resistance. My pick - draw.
I've seen these two go at it before in a derby and it makes for great viewing. I have to say Wan-Bissaka came out on top on this occasion and I suspect Raheem Sterling won't like it. In the end Sterling went up front and Benjamin Mendy tried to use his pace and power to bully his way past the Manchester United right-back - but to no avail. This lad is one of the best timers of a tackle I have seen in years.

Hello everyone. I want to give you a very nice bet for today. This is a derby game between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. This tournament was moved to Saudi Arabia and this is very hard for this four teams. Yesterday Real Madrid take beautiful win with Valencia and today this game is very important for this two teams because one of them will be on the final. Barcelona is very good team but I think they have some problem about their teams and this is good chance for Atletico to get this game and they have chance to play with their big opponent.

As the club's official Twitter account put it: "No airs and graces, just hard work. There is a lot more to this Sheffield United side than graft, although they were given only fleeting opportunities to demonstrate this at Anfield. United asked more questions of the Reds than most sides this season when they met at Bramall Lane in September, an error from goalkeeper Henderson leading to the game's only goal from Wijnaldum.
Having worked under Pep Guardiola closely at City, the Spaniard would bring with him three years of rich experience to the Emirates, but this winning mentality he will have grown accustomed to is not so easily transferred. Arsenal are ninth in the Premier League and well-short of being capable to reach the top four, never mind competing for the title, and it would be a bold project for Arteta to take on should he choose to leave the comforts of City behind.
