He went on to score 62 goals in 167 appearances, in helping Celtic win their treble treble. Before his move to Scotland, he had won promotion to the Premier League with Swansea City via the Championship play-offs in 2011. I am so delighted to get the deal done," said Sinclair.

The rest was him. I'm absolutely delighted for him. Everton manager Marco Silva speaking to Match of the Day: "It's really harsh for us - we didn't deserve it at all. We deserved to take something more in this game. Nothing to say about the attitude and commitment. We were playing against a confident team. Of all their games at home this might have been the toughest they had. In the beginning of the second half it was good for us.
From Liverpool howler to steady as a rockJust as impressive as Sheffield United's unexpected form this season has been the rise of Henderson from Premier League rookie to a realistic contender for the England number one spot. But his development has not come without a few bumps in the road. A significant moment came in September against Liverpool. The Blades were on course for a hard-fought and unexpected draw against the Premier League leaders until Henderson let a tame Georginio Wijnaldum effort slip through his legs for the only goal of the game.
West Ham’s respite from slipping down the Premier League table proved short lived on Boxing Day as they followed a 1-0 win at Southampton with a last minute loss at Selhurst Park, leaving the Hammers just a point clear of the relegation zone at the halfway mark of the season.

Shorn of the clinical finishing of Harry Kane, and hamstrung by the reductive playing style and game-plan employed by Mourinho, Tottenham look low on creativity and confidence, as evidenced by their return of just three goals in five top-flight outings.
So this is a chance to see how the tiny country can cope with hosting a tournament with fans coming from around the world. Qatar will host next year's Club World Cup too, with even Fifa describing these as "valuable test events" for 2022, "allowing for testing under similar climatic conditions". The temperature in Doha on most days in early-mid December last year reached 26C. Liverpool's two games will take place at the 48,000-seater Khalifa International Stadium - which is a 2022 World Cup venue.

Al Fateh fc have 1 win and 3 losses in the last 5 matches. They have scored 5 goals and conceded 8 goals in the last 5 league matches. At home they managed to win 1 and lose 2 of their last 5 games scoring 7 goals and conceding 9 goals.
As good as Juventus have been at home this season, they've not often gone mad in terms of goals scored, but this is a huge opportunity for them to hit their stride offensively and rack up a big win. Punters can take advantage by supporting 'Juventus -2 Handicap'. The last time Juve won a league game by more than two goals was when they hosted Udinese at the end of last season, while the recent effort of the visitors against two of the sides coming up behind Juventus point towards a real away-day struggle on Sunday. The fact that Udinese, on average, concede more than five shots on target more than they register, which is only 2.57, away from home bodes well for the hosts, who're averaging 8.14 shots on target for at home.
Well this is the only logical choice to me. Besiktas is not having a good reason.They are still in fight for some European league spot but they just can't catch any rhythm it looks like. Their form lately is not bad but they are not reliable team at the back and they can struggle a lot. On the other hand we have Konya. They are not a bad team actually and I don't know how and why but they are struggling a lot and will fight to avoid relegation. They can score against anyone for sure. Also there were 3 covid 19 reported cases at Besiktas an hour ago so they will have to rotate.

In terms of our correct score tip, while it is true that AFC Wimbledon do not exactly have the greatest return in front of goal and average just 1.11 goals per game on home soil, they also have scored in each of their last six home matches. The hosts have scored in 89% of their home games overall and given that Doncaster have failed to score in half of their away matches this season, it seems like they have their work cut out once more.

It was in defence that the wheels really came off, however, with Lejeune playing a key and calamitous role in both of Leicester's first two goals. The injuries to his fellow defenders Willems and Manquillo gave Bruce one final role of the dice with his replacements, which he used at the break to usher Sean Longstaff into the game in place of Shelvey, who was also injured. When Schar then pulled a thigh muscle, he limped out the game and took any hope Newcastle had of getting back into the game with him.
Trabzonspor started in 2020 quite disappointed when they were defeated by Istanbul BB 0-2. Many people are starting to be pessimistic about the home team's performance this season, when their forces have not had much quality addition. The gameplay is thus still quite poor and inefficient. Of course, the concern for Trabzonspor is completely grounded when this team previously showed a bad image in the preparation for the new year. But recently, Trabzonspor's performance is very good, they have won in 9/11 matches recently. Meanwhile, Sivasspor did not win in the last 2 matches. I believe Trabzonspor will win this match.
I would never do something like that and I don't want someone with those characteristics in my staff. Responding to Enrique's accusations of disloyalty, Moreno said on Thursday: "I think he labelled me with words that are ugly and are not attributable to me. In a first meeting with Luis Enrique, he told me that I had done what I had to do and that he felt proud of me. Then I asked him for a meeting to give him a hug and convey my support.
Neymar left Barcelona for the French champions in a world record move in 2017 but his time in the capital has been dogged by reports of unrest. He attempted to force through a move in the summer which led to some fans turning against him at the Parc des Princes. He has scored 16 goals in 19 games for the champions as they have again moved comfortably to the top of Ligue 1, and Barca's great rivals Real Madrid reportedly sent representatives to Paris at the start of the season to meet with him about moving to the Bernabeu.

Nantes is still at high place at standings, currently 9th, despite the fact that they are defeated on last two matches in a row, against Bordeaux and Rennes, but the real test they will have tonight, since they will play against mighty Paris Saint Germain, table leaders, the most effective squad, and the most stronger defense in France league. In last round against Montpellier, club from 5th place, PSG easily has scored five goals, they showed a totally domination on the pitch, there is no reason to assume to be any different case in tonight's duel against Nantes. Victory for PSG with more than 1.5 goals.
Casa Pia have only picked up seven points from their opening eleven matches this season and lost 1-0 at home to National at the weekend, while Porto beat Young Boys 2-1 in the Europa League last time out and face Pacos Ferreira in the Primeira Liga on Monday evening before they can switch their attentions to Thursday’s clash.

Conceded by Joel Robles. Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford says criticism does not affect him, adding "everyone hates you" when you are an England player. The 25-year-old was at fault for Christian Benteke's goal on Saturday as Everton went seventh in the Premier League thanks to a 3-1 win against Crystal Palace.
Oxford United will have been disappointed to draw a non-league side in the third round. Then again, Hartlepool would have hoped for more than an away tie at Oxford. This gives them a good chance to make the fourth round where hopefully a big tie will come along. Oxford can't really complain having just hosted Manchester City in the EFL Cup as well as West Ham United, who they beat 4-0. They are having a great season and could end up being promoted. Hartlepool have struggled since being relegated and although they beat Exeter in the last round, the tip here is for an Oxford home win.
I gave a simple pass to the striker. No-one had seen him so I just gave it to him between the defenders and he went and scored. That was the only game I played. For Roland Janssen, a Genk scout at the tournament, that one game was enough. Impressed with the teenager's work rate he invited Ndidi for a trial with the Belgian side. When I came to Belgium the coach was Alex McLeish and he was putting me at right-back and left-back," Ndidi continues.
They will hope to do better defensively here, having managed just one clean sheet in the earlier five matches before football was stopped. The 2018 MLS champions have not had the best run away from home in the league in recent times, and here they head with a run of five losses and four wins when playing away from the Mercedes Benz Stadium.
honved started the season after the break with two cup games versus mtk and they eventually win but after 180 minutes it was 0-0 which was pretty bad thing to watch but today I think they will redemption and play very interesting and fun game versus Debrecen in which I expect goals on both sides to occur, honved is going to be motivated to win to get away from relegation zone but on the other side Debrecen is even closer to relegate so they should be even more motivated and I expect from both to score, final outcome is very hard to predict

They have scored an impressive 10 goals in Mourinho’s three games in charge, although things haven’t been quite so positive at the other end of the pitch. Spurs have conceded two goals in each of their last three outings, and in the Premier League they are also without a clean sheet in nine matches.
Should we expect footballers to comment on the ethics of playing in Qatar? Everyone loves Jurgen Klopp, with his charisma and his exciting football and his head full of at least two people’s teeth. We do too. But we can’t help thinking that he has fudged the issue of whether the Club World Cup should be taking place in Qatar, with the myraid human rights abuses that have been well documented.
He is always there signing things for fans and talking to them, but his connection with City is deeper than that. Some foreign players come in and it's obvious they have just come to play football and get their money for a few years, without making much effort to find out about the culture of the city or the history of the club. David was never like that. I have got to know him very well down the years and I know how much it affected him when his son, Mateo, was born extremely prematurely in 2017.
Fortuna Sittard have only kept clean sheets in 38% of their home games and RKC have only kept clean sheets in 12% of their away games so far, all of which suggests that both teams are in with a great chance of scoring this weekend.

Montpellier have been fantastic this season but due their awful away form, we're edging this one in favour of the hosts. Both teams have put in 'Jekyll and Hyde' performances when they're not playing at their preferred home stadium but with Dijon hosting this match, we're backing them to keep up their great form at the Gaston Gérard to beat Montpellier.
Leipzig are third in the table, after a fairly long time at the top of the table, the time before the Bundesliga was suspended because the Covid-19 translation of coach Julian Nagelmann's team did not play well, they won two and drew four in last six rounds. This series of bad results led them to drop to third place, so the Leipzig players are eager to win the first match after the postponement period to raise hopes of winning the championship. Freiburg is not too difficult opponent and it is likely that the home team will have the victory with the score. Freiburg is eighth with 36 points, which is a relatively good performance for this team compared to the previous season and maybe Christian Streich's team will want to keep at least this position until the end of the season. However, this is not easy because their strength is weaker, although they try hard but the visitors are likely to lose with the difference ratio.
There will be boys in the squad, but if they start we will see. The team that played at Shrewsbury was an FA Cup team at that moment. If Chelsea make changes, I don't know if they will, it will still be a very experienced team. It's the last-16 of the FA Cup and we want to go through. Video - 'Liverpool fans aren't silly enough to believe coronavirus title fears' - Klopp00:39 A 3-0 loss at Watford over the weekend ended Liverpool's unbeaten Premier League run and many criticised centre back Dejan Lovren for giving their strikers opportunities to score but Klopp was quick to jump to the centre back's defence.
If you see the work my wife has done, it's just wow! Some of her stuff is so, so lovely. And she is only now calling herself an artist. She has always been artistic, but never had that belief in herself. She inspires me because she just goes for it, she has done so many different things, it's unbelievable. It's all straight out of her head, I'm nowhere near that. These are ruins I copied from a picture.

Celtic will be out for revenge this weekend when they play host to Livingston in the Premiership. Three of the last six meetings between these two clubs have produced over 2.5 goals. Four of Celtic’s last six matches have produced over 2.5 goals. Three of Livingston’s last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals. All of Livingston’s away games in the Premiership this season have produced over 2.5 goals. Both teams have a good goal scoring record and I expect them to find the net here. Celtic is in amazing form right now and they can win it as well. Over 3 goals is expected.
I remember him winding me up, saying big Sol Campbell was going to get me, but I played really well. People say Hampden's got no atmosphere, but it was incredible that day. We were just so unlucky. Scholes scored twice when we were putting pressure on and I remember thinking: 'How are we 2-0 down here?' When I hit the bar, I knew it wasn't going to be our day.
