Far from being protagonists, by the final few weeks of Emery’s reign Arsenal were more like bystanders, watching matches pass them by. Even when Alexandre Lacazette scored an injury-time equaliser against Southampton at the weekend, the players could barely animate themselves to celebrate. Pochettino is a manager who can make this promise come to life.
Their last three matches have had somewhat dramatic endings. First, they took a 3-0 half time lead over Hertha Berlin but capitulated in the second half to draw 3-3, they then fought from a goal down to draw 1-1 with Saarbrucken but lost on penalties. In their most recent match, Fortuna scored another late goal to draw 1-1 with Mainz.
Norwich, unfortunately for them, do not find themselves in this mid-table battle. Instead, the Canaries are embroiled in the early stages of a relegation battle after their spirited start to life in the top flight sputtered to a halt.

Add in the fact the government's furlough scheme ends in October, and it's clear the prospect of playing in empty stadiums is seen as not economically viable for even some in the second tier. Championship clubs have been issuing dire warnings. Ayr United say some could "revolt" or go into administration if forced to play behind closed doors, chiming with Queen of the South's assessment of "financial suicide" if games go ahead without subsidies in place.
Chelsea is still first favorite to finish the season on fourth position and despite the played 1 1 versus Brighton in last round, they are still in very good shape and I surely expect from them to win today at home versus team which is not in good shape and Burnley surely is not in good shape, they passed the round in fa cup recently but in premier league they lost 3 in a row! This bet is going to be winning one if Chelsea finally found the way of keeping clean sheet cause they just can't do it this season at home,2 0 or 3 0 is my prediction
Norwich constantly targeted Villa skipper Jack Grealish, who was their main outlet to move the ball forward, and the midfielder was fouled numerous times to prevent him from mounting attacks. The visitors started the second half on the front foot with a string of corners but Villa stood strong to keep them at bay, with Heaton denying goalbound shots on the line in quick succession.
Tottenham have reversed their decision to use the government's furlough scheme for some non-playing staff during the coronavirus crisis following criticism from supporters. On 31 March, the club announced 550 employees would take a 20% pay cut in an attempt "to protect jobs". But on Monday, a Spurs statement said non-playing staff will receive "100% of their pay for April and May". Only board members will now take salary reductions, the statement added.
When I woke up on deadline day morning in August 2014, I knew I was going to Italy. I just didn't know if I would be coming straight back. I'd found out my loan move from Manchester City to Fiorentina was on the cards two days earlier. Eduardo Macia, who had tried to get me to Liverpool a couple of seasons before, was their sporting director and he asked me if I fancied coming over. But on the morning of deadline day, I had to go to Florence for a medical, and with the injury history I had with my knee, we didn't know if we could get it done in a day.

It is fair to say that Crewe Alexandra will be pretty happy with how things have started in 2020, as, although they went out in the third round of the FA Cup, they competed with Championship opposition and gave them plenty to think about. In the league, they suffered defeat at the home of the league leaders last time out, but they were once again competitive and may have got the result on a different day.
Paris have started the new decade in true Parisian form with two wins and twelve goals scored along the way. They breezed past sixth-tier Linas-Montlhéry 6-0 before putting in a near identical performance against Ligue 1's Saint-Étienne. This just shows the quality and confidence that is oozing throughout PSG's team at the moment with even their second team putting on a first class display.
I think offsides is one and whether you want offsides that are precise to the armpit or the heel, or whether you want to build in a bit of tolerance? That is sort of a technical challenge,” he said. The use of the review area (by the referee) is another debate. We have recently expanded the remit on that to cover red cards and downgrades from red card situations.

(Apertura).
I'll tell you, honestly, I will love it if we beat them, love it!" However, if that season had ended after matchweek 29 and the title awarded by points per game, Newcastle would have done just that. Their once 12-point lead over the Red Devils had been whittled down, but they were still a point ahead of Ferguson's side with a game in hand in late March. A Newcastle title win, but one that would have been claimed in sterile, underwhelming circumstances.
With champions Liverpool and runners-up Manchester City possessing strong and settled sides, Lampard will have been tasked with emulating his predecessor by securing Champions League football for next season. He has duly achieved that and there is the real possibility of ending the campaign with further success with the FA Cup final at Wembley still to come. A number of youth players have featured in the starting line-up this season including striker Tammy Abraham and defender Reece James, but England playmaker Mount has been the pick of the bunch.
Noah is one position under this rival, but they are playing much better in the previous period, and have power to go for the good result here. If manage to make three points, Noah would go over the direct rival on the table, and make their playoff chance much bigger.
Of course, he doesn’t really fit in with Lampard’s intense pressing style but given that a lot of teams appear to have worked out how to negate that system. Giroud, one of the best Plan B options around. Chelsea are struggling to get a lot of their attacking players outside of the striker involved at the moment - hardly surprising when none of them are at the level of Eden Hazard, who could create magic all by himself.
The final Coppa Italia clash of the round sees Roma heading to Parma for the second time this season. The Giallorossi are hoping to land a victory following a solid season, while they need to end their wait for silverware. However, for Parma this is a chance to build on a great campaign.
But we have to listen to the recruitment experts too. Luis Enrique takes aim at 'disloyal' Spain predecessor Returning Spain manager Luis Enrique has lifted the lid on the chain of events which led to the ousting of his former assistant and successor to the national team job Luis Enrique.

We will see the intentions that we have and his intentions," said Arteta. Where we are sitting in the table at that moment. I think it is difficult to predict that context right now. Torreira suffers fractured ankleAubameyang missed a glaring chance to send Arsenal through with the last kick of the match against Olympiakos, having seemingly put his side on course to progress with a goal in extra-time before Youssef El Arabi's late winner.
Les Athéniens have won each of their last three matches at the Stade du Hainaut including victories over Lens (1st in Ligue 2) and Lorient (3rd in Ligue 2) so they should be full of confidence going into this match. As a result of their tremendous form at home and in the league, we're backing them to get the win here as they host a Dijon side bereft of any belief following their underwhelming end to 2019. Valenciennes will have to deal with the step up in quality as they face Dijon but with their sound defence we're backing them to beat the goal starved Mustards 1-0.
Lyon are facing a long list of injured players for this match. Hosts are missing Depay, Dubois, Kone, Marcal, Rafael, Adelaide and Terrier. Those players for sure would bring the quality of the football on a higher level for the club but even without them, Lyon should respect their way of playing vs any opponent ahead of each game.
They've put themselves in an unbelievable position in the league, we know how good they are in the Champions League and they want to win the Club World Cup.

Injuries a potential concern for Liverpool Fabinho was injured in a challenge with Napoli's Hirving LozanoMore concerning for Klopp than Liverpool's failure to get a win and sew up Group E on Wednesday was the injury to Fabinho.
Ouch, that’s a bad one. It’s not that Spurs haven’t managed to cope without Kane for extended spells before. It’s more that the man asked to manage these extended spells was Mauricio Pochettino, not Jose Mourinho, a manager who, it was said during his time at Real Madrid, paid about as much attention to attacking coaching as Boris Johnson does to combing his hair.
They deserved those celebrations but they have had a few days to get them out of the way, and my guess is they will want to be at their very best again when they play City. This is a big game even without any silverware riding on it. Liverpool have already taken City's title, and now they want their records too - most points, biggest title-winning margin and most wins. That is what Reds boss Jurgen Klopp will be demanding.
Le Puy will play against Bastia Borgo in the France national league. The hosts are not in good shape and I think they will have a very tough game here and I also think they will not be able to get whole 3 points. . Le Puy won their reverse fixture against Bastia by 6-2 score line, but in this fixture I think Bastia will make it very hard for them. My bet here is draw. Bastia have been good defensively and have drawn 2 of their last 3 matches. They will make it very hard for the hosts here in this match.

We believe that there is value to be had in the 'both teams to score' market, as Motherwell- who has done well in their last few home ties- has conceded in three of their previous five matches. Despite their impressive goal scoring record away from home, it must be noted that Rangers have slowed down a little bit in recent weeks and have also conceded at least once in three of their last five games. As for the final score, we're backing the Gers to win 3-1 here, as two of their last three away fixtures has seen them win by at least two goals and they've conceded 0.63 times.
Billy Cann was a season-ticket holder at Newcastle United for 35 years before he decided he'd had enough. He had been watching his team since 1969 but when owner Mike Ashley sacked Chris Hughton in 2010 the 63-year-old decided not to renew and many fans have since followed. Their issues are numerous, but chief among them is an owner who they feel does not match their ambition. I don't want to give Mike Ashley any more of my cash," Cann tells BBC Sport en route to a goalless draw with bottom-of-the-table Norwich City for which he has borrowed a ticket.

Individual errors cost BournemouthHaving taken a deserved early lead, Bournemouth boss Howe will be bitterly disappointed with the manner of Liverpool's two first-half goals. Simpson, who replaced the injured Steve Cook after 19 minutes, was easily dispossessed by Mane in the build-up to Salah's equaliser, before another sloppy pass allowed Van Dijk to tee up the Senegal forward for Liverpool's second.
