Done deals: All the Premier League ins and outs The top 10 January transfer targets - and where they could go Woodward to increase security after fan protest - Paper Round Transfer window shuts at 23:00 GMT on Friday 31 January The 24-year-old can operate on either flank and has represented Portugal at U21 level, and has signed a four-and-a-half-year deal at the club.
United are showing promise under Solskjaer but if they want to start competing for the top prizes again then they need to start getting their recruitment right. WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH. It's rarely a foreign manager with no track record in England that clubs turn to pull them out of trouble. After struggling Watford turned to Nigel Pearson, they have won two, drawn two and lost just once and clawed themselves off the bottom of the table.
Organised but wasteful from WatfordComing to Anfield in his first game in charge was always going to be a difficult task for Pearson, who replaced Quique Sanchez Flores as Watford boss earlier this month and was at Vicarage Road to see their 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace last week. He was urging his side to remain tight and will have been pleased, on the whole, by their organisation at the back. But Watford have not won in the league since 8 November - their only victory of the season - and they are the lowest-scoring side in the competition with just nine goals so far.
As a United fan, I've noticed it more at away games where there is this resentment about the difficulty of getting away tickets. This 'tourist racism' is a new manifestation and Asian fans are often seen as an easy target because there is this stereotypical perception that we're passive and won't fight back. Now I'm seeing that apply to south-east Asian fans too when there are large groups of fans coming from overseas.
Grealish was fouled off the ball too, but he took the challenges in his stride and created five chances -- more than any player on the pitch. Unflustered, he set about unlocking Spurs' fragile defence that has kept only one clean sheet away all season. His assist came from a set-piece, where Spurs could not touch him, as he floated in a corner for Bjorn Engels to head home.
In terms of prestige, this should be a clash between one of Italy’s top sides and a middling opponent in constant transition. In many ways, that is how this clash is shaping up – although Milan are the midtable side. The visitors head into this clash in 10th, to take on Champions League Last 16 side Atalanta.
But Real have been in scintillating form since the restart and did not look like losing after Benzema's opener on Thursday. His second from the spot put the game beyond Villarreal's reach, despite a nervy final few minutes. In the end, Barcelona's defeat by Osasuna made the victory a little more comfortable but no less significant for Zidane, who was hoisted into the air by his players. Scheming Ramos let off the hook Karim Benzema scored his 20th and 21st La Liga goals of the seasonReal's title-winning moment looked like set to be relatively straightforward.
Sarri will lead his Juventus team in what, over the past few seasons, has invariably been a top-of-the-table clash, fuelled by north-south rivalry. But while Juventus, chasing a ninth successive title, are leading Serie A as usual, Napoli are having one of their worst seasons since returning to the top flight in 2007 following bankruptcy three years earlier.
We were running on empty but I'm pleased we earned a point and it's been a good week. Gary Cahill made two fantastic challenges to stop them scoring a goal on the counter-attack, but we should have covered that better. There were a lot of tired minds and bodies, and as a result, I have to be delighted with the players' character to ensure we came away from here with a point. It was a team effort and Jordan Ayew worked his socks off up front.

I am having a lot of difficult in getting across the idea of moving the ball quickly to this team," said an exasperated Sarri. In training, the ball moves around at 200 kilometres an hour but the strange thing is that doesn't happen in matches. In training, we work twice as fast as we did tonight," he added after the 1-0 defeat in the round of 16 first leg.
What is notable in this edition of the Money League is the apparent continuing emergence of 'mini-leagues within the Money League'," he said. The largest revenue-generating clubs continue to pull away from the rest. The highest-ranked club outside the big five leagues is Ajax Amsterdam in 23rd place.
Even then, the course of Scottish football history could have run differently had Dundee's Tosh McKinlay not picked up an injury. But moustached and mullet-haired Celtic supporter Kidd entered the fray after 61 minutes. The rest is history and heartbreak for Hearts, with the unlikely hero scoring from close range eight minutes from time. Black: ''We had proven throughout the season that even when we were in the jaws of defeat we'd get a chance to come back and equalise.
The biggest thing is the Fabinho injury, that's massive," Klopp told BT Sport after the game. It's early and we all hope it's not too serious but it's pretty painful and in an area you don't want to have pain, around the ankle. Emery under pressure Good morning! Welcome to live coverage of Thursday's football stories.

At the start of 1999, with Sheringham’s morale through the floor, Ferguson told him his chance would come at the business end of the season. It did. He started the astonishing FA Cup semi-final replay against Arsenal, making the opening goal for Beckham, and then became an unlikely pillar of the Treble.
Cue a last-gasp scramble for a striker. Manchester United were linked with a host of strikers in the January transfer window including, from left to right, Erling Braut Haaland, Edinson Cavani and Josh KingBy the final week of the January window, and with United otherwise engaged in their pursuit of Sporting Lisbon midfielder Bruno Fernandes, it appeared their options may run dry as Paris St-Germain's Edinson Cavani was rumoured to be heading elsewhere.
Preston have scored just seven goals on the road, conceding over twice that number in return. With Blackburn scoring in 85% of their home games and conceding just 0.85 per match at Ewood Park, this does seem like a tough trip for a Preston side who are in the midst of an awful run. Things aren’t likely to get better for the visitors, who haven't won consecutive away league games against Blackburn Rovers since April 1950.
Getafe's 37-year-old striker Jorge Molina broke the deadlock by netting on the rebound in the 58th minute and then doubled their advantage in the 67th, waltzing his way past three Valencia defenders before firing home. Molina's strike partner Jaime Mata added a third goal in the 88th minute after Valencia's new signing Alessandro Florenzi had been sent off with a straight red card.
Gangwon will host Jeonbuk Motors In K League 1 of South Korea on Saturday. That was good start of Jeonbuk Motors this season, won all the three games. They scored five goals and conceded just one. However all the last 17 matches of Jeonbuk Motors in the league produced less than 3.5 goals
Some in the Bundesliga have already discovered the difficulties in navigating this new terrain. View more on twitterBy now, Prem players may have had time to get used to the new codes of conduct, but we can definitely foreesee some slightly awkward, stifled expressions of joy. Someone will make a joke about a stadium resembling a library Absolutely zero points to the first Twitter wag to say they can't detect any difference in atmosphere at the 'Emptyhad'/Emirates/other.
The feedback I'm getting is very positive. When we don't win they know the reasons why. Chelsea boss Frank Lampard, meanwhile, said there was "nothing imminent" with respect to bringing in new players this month but did not brush aside rumours linking PSG striker Edinson Cavani with the London outfit.
ROME, March 20 (Reuters) - Italian soccer clubs, players and fans have banded together to raise millions of euros to support the country’s stretched health system amid the devastating coronavirus outbreak. Thursday was one of the bleakest days in Italy’s battle against COVID-19 as the death toll rose to 3,405, overtaking China as the highest number of fatalities from the disease in one country.
Perez, whose three previous league goals for Leicester came in a 9-0 rout of Southampton last month, found the net from close range after Vardy broke through on the right flank. Vardy slotted home a penalty at the second attempt. The English striker's initial attempt from the spot was saved but James Maddison's rebound was chalked off by VAR for encroachment.
The Scot raced down the touchline when Richarlison headed Everton in front from Djibril Sidibe's cross after only five minutes, then swung a ball boy around in the air when Dominic Calvert-Lewin took advantage of slipshod Chelsea defending to increase their lead four minutes after half-time. Chelsea frayed some nerves in the home crowd when Mateo Kovacic pulled one back from long range - but Ferguson was off down the touchline again when more awful defending from Frank Lampard's side allowed Calvert-Lewin to scramble his second through goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga's legs with six minutes left.

In January, they were interested in Valencia forward Rodrigo - but would not pay the fee of almost £50m the club wanted - as well as RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner and Arsenal's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. They made some mistakes in planning," said European football expert Mina Rzouki on BBC Radio 5 Live. They sold Perez and Ruiz. They knew Suarez's injury would take long. Why can they change their bad management and Leganes can do nothing?"Barca even have two senior international forwards in the B team, which plays in Spain's third tier.
