The Rams are currently five points off a play-off berth in the second tier with nine games of the season remaining, and Rooney believes there will have to be a radical restructure of the football calendar to allow fixtures to be fulfilled. We're happy to play until September if the season extends to then, if that's how it has to be. That's our job," Rooney added. As long as we know we're safe to play and it's a safe environment for spectators, we'll play.

Being young and English is - as per usual in the Premier League - the in-thing. But Giroud showed on Saturday that being patient, working hard and seizing your opportunity is how you prove your point as the Frenchman competes to be Chelsea's first-choice striker. After Michy Batshuayi's disappointing performance against Manchester United and Tammy Abraham making the bench against Spurs following an injury lay-off, the 33-year-old was handed his first Chelsea start since November in a 2-1 victory over Tottenham to register their first league double over their London rivals in 14 years.
I wonder what happened next. Hernan Crespo's stunning finish was part of a massive false dawn for AC Milan in IstanbulDavid Villa - Barcelona v Manchester United (2011)There was no shortage of contenders for a Barcelona entry to this list.

Perhaps more interesting than what José Mourinho said to Daniel Levy and the rest of his interview panel is what they told him about the state of the club and the shape of the job. Because while Spurs may have a lovely shiny new stadium and a Champions League place, they don’t quite have the depth of pocket that Mourinho is accustomed to.

I think if fans can see the referee (reviewing the incident) then psychologically they are seeing something happening rather than waiting for (VARs based in) Stockley Park to make a decision. That will be a discussion point,” he said. Video - 'VAR takes half an hour to see if there's a toe nail' - Klopp00:56 Masters said the league was in “constant dialogue” with IFAB, the game’s lawmaking body, over the use of VAR.
In terms of their most recent efforts, things haven't gone well. Morecambe have drawn one and lost three of their last four, scoring just two goals in the process. Such form isn't ideal ahead of a game against an in-form Port Vale side.
The big five leagues in Europe -- in England, Spain, Germany, Italy and France -- have all been suspended, as have the Champions League and Europa League, adding to a potential fixture pile-up should the competitions resume later this year. However, many players whose deals run until the end of the season will be out of contract after June 30, raising questions over how the ongoing league season can be completed with the current squads.
Manchester United and Wolves resume their battle for a place in the Fourth Round of the FA Cup on Wednesday, and supporters attending the replay at Old Trafford in mid-week will hope to see much more excitement than the first game between the clubs produced.
The away team has let in at least two goals in eight of their last nine previous games and only one goal in their last game while scoring five in return. This proves they are generous at the back and also have an attack that can also deliver goals if a defense is caught off guard. Putting in mind that the away team can score even while giving away goals makes this fixture to be one interesting one hoping for a lot of goals especially since the home team is considered favorites. I would not be surprised if we see even four goals.

I hate to tip my own side to be beaten, but I am not expecting any surprises there. We are at Deepdale for Focus earlier on Saturday but, speaking as a Preston fan, this tie has come at a bad time for us. We looked exhausted against Middlesbrough. Like Norwich, Bournemouth badly need a win and they should get it against Luton, who are bottom of the Championship and cannot stop shipping goals - they have conceded 56 in 26 league games this season, so more than two a game.
Director Miles Jacobson says the product has become "an encyclopaedia of football" and seeing the young players who impress in the game become good in real life is what makes it feel so believable. Striker Cherno Samba was another, like Moukoko, who turned into a global superstar in the game's earlier days - but in reality had a career that started in Millwall's youth set-up and then took in Plymouth, Wrexham and Scandinavia's lower leagues.
Grecia only are on the 8th place so far in the league with a 5-4-8 record and with 29 goals conceded they have one of the worst defense in the league. At home Grecia also have scored the fewest goals of all the teams in the league with only 6 goals so far in 8 games.
It left them dangerously exposed to counter-attacks, but Ferguson was always of the view that you may as well be hanged for a sheep as a lamb. We could never have started with that line-up; it would have been brave going on suicidal,” said Gary Neville in his autobiography, Red. A final twenty minutes of desperation was another matter.
After a largely indifferent start to season, Valencia have crept into contention throughout November with three wins in four, including a 2-1 triumph against Villarreal in the Derbi de la Comunitat at Mestalla last week.
Footballers, like the rest of us, are fallible: they peak and they trough, they have good days and bad days and, also like the rest of us, could do with a little cajoling or scolding now and again. It has become fashionable to condescend the concept of passion, or 'pashun', but commitment to a team, its aim and its ambition represent one of those intangibles that can provide marginal advantages at the elite level.
Pepe was also at the heart of their attacking endeavour as they were roared on by their fans. After scoring early on, he sent United left-back Luke Shaw halfway down the Holloway Road with a sharp turn before setting up Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who sliced a volley over. The Ivorian then fed Alexandre Lacazette, who somehow hit his shot out for a throw-in from about six yards out, before Torreira went close from another Pepe pass.

St Mirren lost their 3rd game on the bounce during the week, losing 3-0 to Motherwell in Paisley. This latest defeat means the Jim Goodwin's side remains bottom of the league and without any signs of improvement.
It is the clubs who have made the decision today - the government said on Thursday that matches could continue for now. No-one, certainly not me, knows how long the current situation will last for. I don't see matches being played until the coronavirus problem has passed its peak point, which the medical experts said yesterday could be between 10 and 14 weeks. Given the medical advice, I don't think anyone in football seriously expects the situation to have changed in three weeks and therefore the present situation is much more likely to be extended than lifted.
We liked it a lot anyway. And here are just a few things we learned. The top 50 sport films you must see1. Mane had to run away to play footballPerhaps you already know this story, but, as a boy, growing up in a small village called Bambali in Senegal, Sadio Mane's family weren't actually that keen on him kicking a ball about for a living. His father died when he was just seven and he was raised largely by his uncles.
No, we do know truth. It couldn't be more plain to anybody who's not in denial. For football reasons, and for financial reasons, Stendel had to make the call. You could wince at the brutal way it was done but football can be a savage business at the best of times, not to mind the worst of times. Stendel doesn't believe in Berra and he needs him out of the club to free up his salary so he can get somebody in who he does believe in.

Two teams looking to end miserable streaks face off in the Super Lig next week when Goztepe host Rizespor in Turkey's top flight.
Health and family should always be number one. I left home when I was 15, I gave everything for football but right now football has been put into context by what is going on.

Tottenham have not done that. The team that sat 14th in the league in November are manifestly worse than the team that finished second in 2016-17. That summer, Spurs lost a wantaway Kyle Walker and failed to replace him. Serge Aurier does not count. In the 2017-18 season Tottenham finished third – two points ahead of Liverpool – and signed no one.
Fylde will host Aldershot Town for this fixture of the league. Both teams are very average teams in this league. True, Fylde have a poor results in this campaign. Field is one of the teams of the relegation zone. In any case, the hosts have the motivation to change their positions. In previous game File is won 1-2 against Dag & Red. On the other hand Aldershot is very average team in this season. However, Aldershot have fallen in their shape. They have two consecutive losses. Also, Aldershot is not very good team away from home.
