Kepa was dropped by Lampard on Saturday's 2-2 draw with Leicester City and the Blues' boss is "demanding" a new shot-stopper this summer. Kepa's deputy Willy Caballero is likely to remain Chelsea's number one until the end of the season. The London club have been linked with transfers for Burnley's Nick Pope and Crystal Palace's Vicente Guaita.
Ashley's stock is so low that placing non-playing staff on furlough and charging for next campaign's season tickets amid the coronavirus pandemic were merely met with a shrug. Protests have not worked and news of an alternative, any alternative, has been met with excitement. They are wary, though, because they have been down this path before only to end up disappointed. How much does Mike Ashley stand to make from this deal?There is a consistent theme from anyone who has had dealings with billionaire Ashley: he is a tricky negotiator and trying to predict what happens next is almost impossible.
Barcelona pegged back the hosts before the break, though, with Antoine Griezmann scoring against his former club, chipping a finish home after being released on the counter attack. And the turnaround was completed after half time when Lionel Messi broke the offside trap and set up Luis Suarez for a simple finish.

This is just the fifth FA Cup meeting between City and Arsenal, with City winning the first in February 1904, and Arsenal winning the next three (March 1932, February 1971 and April 2017). ArsenalArsenal are playing in their 30th FA Cup semi-final - no side has played in more. They've reached the final on 20 occasions, which is also a joint record (level with Manchester United for both). Arsenal have beaten/eliminated the holders of the FA Cup each of the past five times they've faced them, and this is their first such match since the 2014 semi-final against Wigan Athletic.
Honestly, Manchester United for me is in my book of experiences, my history book. A little bit like Mr Mandela was saying, ‘You never lose. You win or you learn. At United I won and I learned. My time after I left was a good time for me. It is not for me to analyse United. I analyse United now as an opponent.
I didn't put that type of player in there, but when Hamza came into the game [in the 69th minute], he was brilliant for us. Player Rater: Leicester v Aston VillaReaction to action from the King Power StadiumQuiz: Name all EFL Cup semi-finalists of the 2010sPhil McNulty's match reportFormer Crystal Palace striker Clinton Morrison, working as a match analyst for BBC Radio 5 Live, said Choudhury should be called up to the senior England squad.
Alexander-Arnold added that Klopp "develops the people around him" and "makes their dreams come true". Last year, Liverpool became European champions for a sixth time following victory over Tottenham in the Champions League final. It was their second successive final after defeat by Real Madrid in 2018. They also finished runners-up to Manchester City in the Premier League last season, having lost just one game and recording the third-highest points total in the history of the English top flight.
However, with only two games remaining of the regular season, it's the away team who need the points if they are to squeeze into the play-off quarter finals. They are two points behind sixth placed Juventus Managua, who look set for a win over bottom-of-the-table Deportivo Ocotal. Therefore, Chinandega will probably have to win this match to keep their play-off hopes alive with their final fixture being at home to Ocotal.

Watford captain Troy Deeney says he is "not going to put his family at risk" amid concerns he has about the Premier League's plans to restart the season. The striker, 31, said he would not play if he felt he was putting his family's health was in jeopardy. His concerns were echoed by Norwich captain Grant Hanley, who said he would be worried about returning home to his pregnant partner. Both players were involved with talks with the Premier League this week.
England swept the Netherlands aside 4-1 in the group stage, before beating Spain on penalties in the quarter-final, setting up a last-four meeting with old nemesis Germany. Wembley was a cauldron of national fervour, as England's perfect start from Alan Shearer's header was levelled up by Stefan Kuntz's quick equaliser, setting up the Golden Goal jeopardy of extra-time. Kuntz had a header disallowed for offside while Paul Ince headed off the line from Marco Bode.

Amiens had been impressing before the Rennes defeat and with them back at home against a team notoriously awful on the road, we're backing the hosts to get the win here. Strasbourg have been consistently losing on the road but rarely get thrashed – they conceded just seven goals in their six away games this season which is bizarrely the fifth best tally in Ligue 1 for a team sitting 16th – so we're only backing them to lose by the one goal margin. 1-0 to Amiens.
Wacker Innsbruck will welcome SV Horn II in Austria 2nd Division week 16. The host are not more playing for promotion and the leaders are better with 13 points, they know it's hard to catch up with that point margin, The beat the visitors in their last league game away 1-0, and I believe that this time around goals will be they key here. They have 22 points from 15 matches, last 5 league matches with 3 wins and 2 lost games.
Domestically, things are going significantly better for the hosts, currently 4th in Ligue 1 and for that exact reason, little importance is likely to be given to Thursday's game and they could make numerous rotations to their team in it. Without a clean sheet in any of their 10 home matches this season, whatever side they field will have to try and tighten up defensively if they are to secure any kind of result
It means the FA Cup will be stuck at the quarter-final stage for a bit longer, promotion and relegation issues are unresolved and Liverpool nervously await the chance to complete their first league title triumph since 1990. But while nothing seems to be happening, plenty of conversations are occurring and scenarios for concluding the historic 2019-20 season are being discussed. Fundamentally though, these are the five options on the table:1.
Neville made five changes to the starting line-up that edged out the Czech Republic 3-2 last time out, with 19-year-old Manchester City forward Lauren Hemp given her first start. And Hemp was one of few bright sparks for England, almost setting up Jill Scott in the first half with a dangerous flick-on, while Nikita Parris also had a half-chance for the visitors.
That was the disappointing thing at Everton, it wasn’t just that we were slightly off – I didn’t like that there were individual contact moments across the game that we lost. Because that’s a personality thing as much as anything else. Bakayoko provides light relief with shirt number blunder In case you missed it on Sunday, Chelsea loanee Tiemoue Bakayoko was the object of some light-hearted fun when he forgot his own shirt number playing for Monaco against Amiens at the Stade Louis II.
One of the most important things – touching my heart – is that I am from Africa. There aren’t many African managers in the top leagues in England or Europe. I am used to having to come from a long way because there are no idols and no role models to look up to. That is why I am doing my badges. Some of my friends who have been playing maybe haven’t thought of that.
Barrow and Torquay will face each other in the upcoming match in the National League. Barrow this season have the following results: 18W, 6D and 7L. Meanwhile Torquay have 12W, 6D and 14L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
To be fair, his attitude in training since the day that I walked in the building has been incredible. I've seen this and I said I would give a clean slate to everybody and that was for him too," Arteta explained. When we were preparing and watching where we could hurt the opponent, we believed he (Ozil) could be a key point.
Football match in Japan's second football championship, between Zweigen Kanazawa and Matsumoto Yamaga. For this game I want to try the victory of Matsumoto Yamaga with draw no bet in their favor. After the excellent start in the first championship they can repeat same results. Yamaha has won all seven matches against Kanazawa so far, so I hope this great series of Yamage will continue in this match
United have lost just two of their last 15 home matches and they have not lost any of their last 12 home matches in the Europa League. Actually, they have registered 10 wins in the run and three straight clean sheets ahead of this game. They won four matches at the group stage and the last time they took part in the competition, 2017, United won the title.
Who knows how much more they might have achieved but for the desperate tragedy of the Munich air disaster? The Busby Babes were travelling from Belgrade to Manchester via Munich on 6 February 1958, having just successfully reached their second European Cup semi-final Had the team survived, they might have beaten AC Milan in that semi-final and perhaps become the first British side to be crowned European champions.
The 31-year-old has been on loan at Roma this season after failing to impress at Arsenal. The Daily Express report that Roma have bid around £10m to secure a permanent deal, but the Gunners want closer to £18m. Mkhitaryan reportedly wants to leave, but if Roma can’t secure a deal they will look at Chelsea’s Pedro.
Did you know? Despite leaving Old Trafford 15 years ago, only four players have won more matches with United in the Premier League than Keane - Giggs (407), Paul Scholes (321), Gary Neville (256) and Wayne Rooney (250). Clubs: West Ham, Chelsea & Manchester CityWhile Frank Lampard had started to make a name for himself at West Ham, it was not until after his £11m move to Chelsea in 2001 that he became recognised as one of the Premier League's top midfielders.
The 2020-21 Premier League season will start on 12 September and finish on 23 May. The current campaign will end on Sunday after it was suspended for three months because of the coronavirus pandemic. The Premier League said it would "continue to consult" with the Football Association and English Football League (EFL) "regarding the scheduling of all domestic competitions". The start date for teams still in Europe is under discussion.
To prove that last season's third-place finish was no one-off, Kilmarnock have been tussling in the top six once again this term. Wednesday's hosts come into this match in 5th, six points behind Aberdeen, who're currently 3rd.
Both teams have scored in eight of the last 11 Valencia away games. Three of the last four Granada matches have seen both teams score. Only two of the last six Granada home games have not seen both teams get on the scoresheet. Granada host holders Valencia in the quarter finals of the Copa del Rey. The newly promoted side are tenth in La Liga, six points behind the final Europa League position.
Wednesday are into the top six thanks to their form under the former Birmingham boss, having won back to back games ahead of this clash. He’s taken advantage of a softer run of fixtures, which has pushed the club towards the top. That’s put them in the frame for a playoff push if they can maintain this form. However, their away record suggests there could be problems on the horizon for the Owls.
Slezsky FC Opava will be host against Mlada Boleslav in Czech Republic 1 League 17th match day.

Luton chief executive Gary Sweet has warned the future of clubs "at every level" are at risk unless there is "a swift and material aid package" from the game's authorities to deal with the impact of Covid-19. Sweet has been a central figure in the Hatters' rise from non-league back to the Championship and, having experienced the issues involved in running a club at four levels of the English pyramid, is seriously concerned as the game's suspension heads into its second month.
The club had said the move was to protect "as many jobs as possible" and avoid redundancies, adding the current situation is unsustainable. However, Budge has since told staff she hopes to review the wage cut proposal when more detail on Chancellor Rishi Sunak's salary pledge becomes available. Hibernian CEO calls for coronavirus cash clarity'Very optimistic' to complete league by June - Burrows“My family and I feel that, through a long career, football has been very good to us," said Naismith.
However, midfielder Phil Foden will be available after serving a one-game suspension in that match earlier this month. Striker Sergio Aguero will also be absent after he sustained a thigh injury in Saturday's 2-1 Premier League win against Chelsea. Aguero's absence means Gabriel Jesus is set for a run of games after being a substitute for City's past two league matches. Gabriel Jesus has only started eight of City's 20 matches in all competitions this season"I'm not happy because Sergio is injured," said Jesus.
He has clearly lost faith in erratic £71m goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga to the extent he now prefers a 38-year-old who has been a permanent deputy for many years, in Willy Caballero. It surely means Chelsea will be seeking a replacement for Arrizabalaga in the summer. Chelsea now face an acid test when former manager Jose Mourinho returns to Stamford Bridge with Tottenham on Saturday. The pupil outmanoeuvred the master at White Hart Lane earlier this season but the pressure is reversed on this occasion and Mourinho will relish the encounter.
Not Olympic standard gymnastics but comforting and familiar like a nice dollop of mashed potatoes. Ravanelli’s shirt over his headIt’s no exaggeration to say this moment changed the way goals were celebrated in England for a while. In August 1996, Fabrizio Ravanelli scored a hat-trick on his Premier League debut as Middlesbrough drew with Liverpool and lifted his shirt over his head. Everyone seemed to celebrate that way - in professional matches and on schoolyards - afterwards, although Fifa making it a bookable offence reduced that fad.

Odds may be dropping on the away win here but Roda won really just 4 of 21 league games so far this season and when they hosted Jong Utrecht at home earlier this season the game ended in a 3-1 win for the Jong Utrecht side who are also a solid home side with a record of 5-4-1 at home this season even though they are coming after a 2-1 loss at Graafschap but that is a top team while Road is not.
Hamstring injuries vary in their severity but typically a tear could result in around month on the sidelines. It would be a major blow to Tottenham who are six points behind fourth-placed Chelsea after mediocre results at Christmas. His quality, the routines we have for him, every minute of every game he doesn't play we will miss him," Mourinho said.
Guadalupe will host Limon for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, this is a very unpredictable league and I think, the visitors have real chance to get all the points. Guadalupe is very average team in this season. They are currently on the 6th place with 21 points. Yeah, the hosts have better team than their opponent in this campaign. Nevertheless, I expect, the visitors to provide a strong resistance. Limon are currently on the 10th place with 14 points. However, they have the motivation to change their positions. In previous game Limon is won 0-1 against ambitious Herediano (away) My pick - Limon to win.
