Whittingham did not complain and simply left when his contract expired in the summer of 2017, with no fanfare or ceremony. He was too modest to want a fuss but, looking back on his departure, he admitted he wished he could have had a proper farewell. I wanted to say goodbye to everybody surrounding the club, the fans," Whittingham said. That's something I would have loved to do. It was not to be, but Whittingham's legacy at Cardiff had already been assured.
Germany, Premier League, Championship and many more are completing and so should we. Portsmouth chief executive Mark Catlin said it is clear there is frustration among some clubs that a decision to abandon the season had already been made with regards to how some of the negotiations so far have been reported. I don't know where that's been coming from," he told BBC Radio Solent. It's a case of putting the record straight.
The impression it has given is that it is a collection of self-interested organisations, all with different agendas," says Chris Buckley, chairman of the Sport Acuity consultancy. But Buckley doesn't believe the reputational damage will impact on attendance at games. Fans put up with a heck of a lot and I am sure we will be flooding back once there is a live game to see," he said.
I think it's important you show respect to all the people at the club whatever your role is, and I think we have shown real good togetherness by doing this. Rangers said some of their employees would be furloughed due to "extraordinary challenges" from the crisis but would continue to receive their full salary through "top up" assistance from the club.

Warta Poznan will host Radomiak Radom for this fixture of the league. Both sides are one of the ambitious teams in this campaign. Of course, both teams want to get a positive result. I believe, Warta have better team than their opponent. In any case, Warta have advantage at home stadium. They probably want to stay in the race for higher range. Also, we have Radomiak Radom who's is very average team in this season. I think, the visitors will try to provide a strong resistance. True, Radomiak is not very good team away from home. My pick - Warta to win.
SASSUOLO'S BOGA TOO QUICK OFF THE FIELD AFTER SUBSTITUTION Sassuolo forward Jeremie Boga has been given a ticking-off by coach Roberto De Zerbi for leaving the field too quickly after he was substituted in the 88th minute against Lazio. The score was 1-1, which would have suited lowly Sassuolo, when Boga was taken off but third-placed Lazio snatched a stoppage time goal to win 2-1.
Moura lacks consistency, not application, but that’s what happens when you’re shunted from winger, then to substitute, then to lone striker. Not on merit, just on who else is available. It’s left him on the verge of burning out, abandoned in attack and only Giovani Lo Celso looking like creating anything for him.
When Maurizio Sarri took over as coach during the summer and announced that he needed to trim his squad, the Argentine was seen as one of the players most likely to leave. Dybala, who has a reputation for blowing hot and cold, had spent the previous year battling for a place in the team following the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo and endured his least impressive season since joining the club in 2015.

It was guys that had never played in a professional game or were just starting to feel the magnitude of what was about to happen; that we were going to be playing a game that the world was going to be watching. The league opened its 25th season to great fanfare last month welcoming two new franchises in Nashville and Miami, where David Beckham made his long-awaited return to the MLS as an owner.
In the last 3 seasons, CSKA Moscow couldn't win and maybe this season too. After the winter break, CSKA Moscow showed a poor performance: Ural held 1-1 and lost to host Rostov 2-3. In addition, they were eliminated from the Russian Cup by Spartak Moscow.. At the moment, Viktor Goncharenko's army is only 5th in the table with 35 points, 12 points behind the leader Zenit. Therefore, the most practical goal of CSKA Moscow is probably to reach the top 3 for the Champions League next season. In round 22, the traditional Russian rich team, CSKA Moscow welcomes Ufa at home. In addition to the yard advantage, CSKA Moscow also excels in class, team quality and experience.
GOAL! Arsenal 1-0 Eintracht Frankfurt Saka drives beautifully and switches to Martinelli, who sashays by Hinteregger and crosses for Aubameyang, who drives low; Ronnow sticks out a foot, but can only divert the ball against the bar, down, and into the roof. The resultant corner goes short then back to Xhaka, who tricks his way past Hasebe along the by-line and snaps back for Chambers; he swings ineptly over the bar.
That gave Slavia fans hope this season when drawing Barcelona, Inter Milan and Borussia Dortmund in a fiendishly tough Champions League group from which they, perhaps inevitably, failed to progress. Their performances were still to be applauded, though, as they earned a goalless draw at Barcelona and another point at Inter Milan after conceding a stoppage time goal.
Braga have kept clean sheets in 33% of their home games and have won-to-nil on each of those occasions while Pacos Ferreira haven’t kept any clean sheets on the road and have failed to score in 67% of their away games. 33% of Braga’s home games and Pacos Ferreira’s away games have produced exactly two goals, which adds further weight to our prediction for a 2-0 home win this weekend.

We are in a very difficult situation. I'm so proud of the players and what worries me is this is the situation for the rest of the season," Mourinho said. But speaking about the next game against Leipzig, I can guarantee we are going there to fight to our limits. Nagelsmann said his side's failure to convert more of their 16 goal attempts (compared to Tottenham's 11) left the second leg on March 10 "complicated" and he will fully respect the vast experience Mourinho has in such situations.
But does it make for a better spectacle? And more importantly, does any yellow card offence? The current ‘punishment’ is to hand a player a final warning. Sometimes it does cost teams when a cautioned player commits another infringement and is sent off, or acts differently because they are, to utilise one of football’s finer clichés, walking a tightrope.
Monza are coming in this fixture as clear favorites against a side struggling to form and form with only three wins in their last nine games. The last time these two teams met Juve U 23 was handed a thorough beating in their home ground and totally out classed with Monza commanding most parts of the game. One thing is clear is that the home team will be looking to proceed and give Juve U 23 a run for the full three points to continue adding up on the great gap they have created at the top of the table.

For me personally, overall I don't like to say it but I have a fear and distrust towards police.
Another very very interesting match for today from Dutch elite league and another match where I surely see goals, so that will be my option here and I will just try that. So, Sparta is very talented team who can beat any rival at home. This team is in this moment in problems and in last two matches, they are won just one point, 1-2 and 2-2. Guests or Vittese is better team and this is team who is in last official duel beat this rival even 7-0. Still, they are in bad form and series of two loses, 1-2 and 1-2.

We've worked really hard on Espanyol to find the details that we think our players need to do a good game and compete well. TEAM NEWSWolves have no new injury worries.
