What we have at the moment is rows of empty galleries. Seats everywhere but with nobody in them. You can cover them up by draping banners with witty slogans over them, but when there are no fans demanding blood, sweat and tears from their heroes one minute, and then worshipping the ground they walk on after someone's hit the most glorious winner the next, it is not the same. Those things breathe life into the gladiators in the arena.

Klopp's champions-elect served up their worst performance of the year as they were outplayed by a Watford side who started the game one from the bottom of the table and 55 points adrift of his runaway leaders. Yet while recognising his team's 44-match unbeaten league streak had been bound to be dismantled some time, the German optimist also reflected that he was not really disappointed by the end of the pursuit of some potentially unreal records.
This defeat could cost us the title although we need to think game-by-game, " he said. If you want to win the league you have to play well in every game and today we did not play well. They played much better than us and all we can do is congratulate Betis and keep working because we did not play how we needed to.
While this game will be a welcome distraction for the hosts, it's probably not what Peterborough need. Posh have moved in the wrong direction of late in League 1 and they'll likely want to rectify that ASAP, so an away FA Cup game against Premier League opposition isn't exactly what the doctor ordered.
Well there is no way to compare this two teams.Norwich are just so desperate. They are playing very bad football and they just look so so bad.It's like the players don't know each other and they are so desynchronized.Pukki who used to be the "engines of the club and the leader" is also rusty lately so I don't think that they can do anything at this point, and they just need to focus more to the PL and to somehow do some miracle and avoid relegation.I've watches their last 2 performances and they practically didn't do a single chance for scoring. On the other hand we have United... A different United if u ask me.Finally the things are doing good for united. With Bruno's arrival the team got a new leader , I mean this guy is amazing... Almost every match he plays he is getting MOTM award..Pogba also is doing good, and it looks like he finally decided that he is going to give his best to Man Utd..They haven't lost a match at the last 14+ matches including the wins against City 2-0 , Tranmere 6-0 , Brugge 5-0 , LASK 5-0 and so on... At this moment Norwich are NOTHING for the mighty red devils...
Born to play for Barcelona' De Jong rose to prominence during Ajax's thrilling march to last season's Champions League semi-finals. That led to an almighty transfer race - which Barcelona won ahead of Manchester City and Paris St-Germain. It has not taken long for De Jong to justify his £65m fee, with the Netherlands international starting 15 of 16 league games and spending more time on the pitch than any outfield player except centre-back Pique.
On taking the Betis job, Setien revealed in an interview with El Periodico that despite his love for football he didn't really understand it "until I saw the football of Johan Cruyff". It was with coaches like him when I began to get it," he continued. When to touch the ball, to pass, the spaces. I try to communicate to the players, to keep the ball and to run as little as possible after it. He added he would have had his little finger cut off to be given the chance to play for one of Cruyff's sides, "not because I wanted to be a Barcelona footballer, but rather because of the way they played because I could see just how much the footballers were enjoying themselves".

Both sides had their chances, with Leicester City keeper Kasper Schmeichel saving well from Marcus Rashford in the first half and Jamie Vardy seeing a header glance off the frame of the goal after the break.

I believe it is time for revenge for bottom of the league Kapfenberg as in early rounds this season they lost with no less than 6-1 away from home at newly promoted Dornbirn side, but right now both sides are sitting inside the relegation zone and Kapfenberg looks in better shape even coming close to winning away from home at Austria Klagenfurt last round and that club is 2nd placed but Kapfenberg had the lead there by half-time 1-0 and in the 70 minute they led 2-1 as well but conceded a very late goal in added time to lose 3-2.

I don't think they are done yet, though. Chris Wilder seems to be the type of manager to say 'we have had a great start, but now we need to finish it off'. He will keep demanding more from his players, so I don't see them tailing off - why should they?"We know now how well organised they are, and how strong they are at the back. They have one of the best defences in the Premier League and they create chances as well, so I would expect them to accumulate plenty more points before the end of the season.

Sampdoria have struggled away from home this term, though luckily for them, although this is strictly an away game, they're playing at their home ground, as they share with Saturday's opponents Genoa.

They realised they needed a striker but, for different reasons, they couldn't get one. With that in mind, and against the background of the sacking of the manager, there was a need for an explanation for what was going on - so the club forced Abidal to do an interview with two Catalan newspapers and he was extremely open.

I don't see too many problems for Benfica in this match from Portuguese elite league, because I think that they will be very motivated to play on maximum level in next period.

Now, Moreirense will pay surely after that poor result for this team.

No idea how that’s going to work, but best of luck to all involved.
