Solskjaer’s side have been so inconsistent going forward this season, despite the fact that Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood have been brilliant at points. Dembele is a complete forward and he looks like he would thrive at Old Trafford in a front three alongside Rashford and Martial.
There are significant things we can do to improve, including better consistency in decision-making as VARs and the timings so we get minimum interference. The four incidents Riley was referring to are below. See if you agree that the VARs got them wrong:26 October - Brighton 3-2 EvertonMatch reportWhat happened? In the 77th minute, a penalty was given to the hosts by VAR for a 'foul' by visiting defender Michael Keane on home striker Aaron Connolly.
We'll play on the same pitch," Mellon said. What if it's windy? What if it's hailstones? Good players can adapt and adjust to anything, that's what you expect of them. Chelsea Women manager Emma Hayes apologised to Liverpool Women in December for calling the Prenton Park surface "a stain on their football club" after a 1-1 Women's Super League draw at Prenton Park. Tranmere's third-round replay with Watford was initially postponed because of a waterlogged pitch; when it went ahead on Thursday, the surface included a number of bald patches, with both wings heavily sanded.
Pressure is mounting on head coach, Markus Babbel, which seems silly with the side sitting fourth in the league but the demands of the fan base are big and their poor results and less than inspiring displays have some fans calling for a change. They’ll need to find a result soon in order to keep in touch with the teams at the top and, potentially, save their manager’s job.
They lead this semi-final tie against cup holders Shakhytor Soligorsk 2-0 after the first leg. That was played on home territory with them scoring in the sixth and 13th minutes to take a commanding lead. They will most likely be disappointed that they didn't extend their lead even further. Brest continue to struggle in the league though and are 14th, just one place above the relegation zone.
What next for Moshiri's project? Everton shareholder Farhad Moshiri sacked former manager Ronald Koeman nine games into his second seasonNo-one can doubt Moshiri's ambition, given he has sanctioned around £450m of spending and laid out plans for a new stadium at Bramley Moore Dock, but his big decisions have a very poor success rate. Moshiri wants Everton to join the A-list in the north-west alongside Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United - what he calls "the Hollywood of football".

Derby County are in top form at present, though it might be too late to get them in the play-offs. They and Wayne Rooney of course would love a home tie against Manchester United. County have excellent home form and will make life tough for their League Two visitors. Derby can be backed to win this game and be leading at both half and full time.
As well as in-form Dortmund side, Hoffenheim will have to overcome their own inconsistent form in Friday's game. Hoffenheim have won just one of their last five Bundesliga games. They have lost three of their last five Bundesliga fixtures.
The German arrived at Anfield in October 2015 following the sacking of Rodgers and with the club 10th in the Premier League. He arrived with a record of success, having led Borussia Dortmund to two Bundesliga titles and the 2013 Champions League final, and with a reputation for fast-paced, high-pressing attacking play, which he described as "heavy metal football". The club has not only seen an improvement in its style of play but also its results, with his four full seasons to date yielding finishing positions of fourth, fourth, second and now first.
The midfielder was initially expected to miss only two months, but his recovery was slowed by a setback. Solskjaer admitted he was now not sure if the 26-year-old record signing would be back before the New Year. No. Too early," said the Norwegian when asked if Pogba could be involved in Thursday's final Europa League group match at home against AZ Alkmaar. We hope 2019. United have already qualified for the knockout stages of the Europa League and will secure top spot in their group with a draw or better.
Paderborn are yet to earn a single win away from home this season. They have also failed to win any of their last four games. Meanwhile, Werder Bremen have lost just two of their last eight Bundesliga games. We feel that they are likely to build on last week's win versus Wolfsburg and overcome the challenge of bottom-placed Paderborn at home.
Galatasaray have one win in eight matches. Goztepe have two wins in their last seven league games at home. Galatasaray have the best defence in the league so far Galatasaray have 11 wins in 13 matches against Goztepe. Goztepe have five wins in their last eight matches. The Turkish Super Lig enters Round 16 this weekend and among the matches lined up, Goztepe will be hosting Galatasaray.
After an exciting opening few months that involved several teams contending for the title, Bayern are threatening to pull away from the chasing pack. Sure, they only have a three-point lead over nearest rivals RB Leipzig but it's going to take something special to stop them from claiming yet another title with the way their playing.

Football is trying to do a lot of good," he told TalkSport. To wake up yesterday and see footballers being painted as villains was a bit of a surprise. The health secretary, deflecting blame on to footballers, I don’t think that is right. His job is the responsibility of NHS workers. NHS workers have been underpaid for years.
There are also plans to fit three - rather than two - fixtures into international windows this autumn to play Euro 2020 qualifiers and Nations League fixtures. Olsson said that he would "rather see a scenario where the current season is not finished than not kicking off the new season". Following the widespread suspension of football and the postponement of Euro 2020 and Euro 2021, he was asked on a Soccerex webinar how long he thought that the international calendar could be affected.
Although the hosts have been stronger on home soil this season, they have failed to get over the line with the three points on a pretty regular basis of late, which leads us to believe there is plenty of hope for the visitors. Although Oldham may not be at the top of the game at present, they have been solid enough on the road and have two morale boosting wins over the festive period. When you factor in that 73% of Cheltenham’s home matches have finished with both teams finding the back of the net, then backing them both to score in this fixture appears to be the way to go.
The bone got bigger and so, when I came back again, I played those two games against Watford and Newcastle, I could feel something again. He underwent surgery in January and now cannot wait to return to action. So I had to have an operation and now here I am. I don't feel anything, and, hopefully, I'll be back very soon.
Manchester City's home Premier League match against West Ham has been rescheduled for Wednesday, 19 February at 19:30 GMT. The match was originally scheduled for Sunday, 9 February but adverse weather conditions, caused by Storm Ciara, forced its postponement. The game will be on the same night as some Champions League last-16 fixtures. It will be City's first match since the 2-0 defeat at Tottenham on 2 February.
In contrast, Palace make the trip north to Lancashire without a win in five games, though they will be happy to emerge from a nightmarish run of fixtures that included duels against Man City, Arsenal, Leicester City, Chelsea and Liverpool.
Home form has been the key to the success of Isloch Minsk this season. Four wins out of five on home soil and not a single point on their travels. This is another good chance to get three more home points as they host bottom-of-the-table Belshina. Their opponents are in deep relegation trouble with two points from seven games and only five goals scored. 13 have been conceded by them and the tip here is for a home win with Isloch ahead at both half and full time.
Chelsea's Tammy Abraham is the latest England striker to be sidelined by injury and it is starting to seem like the position is jinxed. I am still hoping to watch Abraham against Liverpool in the FA Cup at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday but Chelsea manager Frank Lampard does not exactly sound optimistic that his ongoing ankle problem will allow him to play. If it doesn't get any better soon, it is going to affect his England chances too.
Dortmund are not even doing their best to implode, they just implode all the time it seems," says Honigstein. They had another horrific result and performance in the Bundesliga against Leverkusen. It is the sort of result and sort of vulnerability in defence that will not win you titles and will make it very difficult to knock out one of the favourites. There are so many issues in defence. Clearly something tactical is wrong, been ongoing for one and a half years.
Fiorentina have scored in nine of their 13 away matches. Fiorentina have four wins in 13 Serie A away matches. Lazio are unbeaten in 11 home matches. Lazio have scored at least two in their last four matches. Fiorentina have three away clean sheets in 13 Serie A matches. Lazio’s title challenge in Serie A took a heavy dent on Wednesday as they lost 3-2 to Atalanta in the 27th round of matches.
It is a situation which has given a somewhat skewed look to Bolton’s statistics and if you just had a glance at the table and saw them with a measly two points, you would be forgiven for thinking they are the league’s whipping boys. However, a 12 point deduction for going into administration and the fact that they have played a few less games than those around them means that they have actually been better than the league table suggests.
Fiorentina have scored twice in five of their last six visits, scoring 14 across their last four. Given the form of these two sides, we think that Fiorentina’s forward-thinking style will prove to be too much for the hosts. We are going with the visitors to score over 1.5 goals in this trip, which is great value given their record in the league so far.
It added that in clearing City of the more serious charges surrounding "dishonest concealment" of sponsorship deals it was "not appropriate to impose a ban on participating in Uefa's club competitions" for the lesser charge of "obstructing the CFCB's investigations". On reducing the fine, Cas said that, while it considered "the importance of the co-operation of clubs in investigations conducted by the CFCB" and Manchester City's "disregard of such principle and its obstruction of the investigations", the Cas panel "considered it appropriate to reduce Uefa's initial fine by two-thirds".
We’re confident that both teams will score on Sunday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-1 in favour of Tranmere. The hosts have the edge as they are a League One side full of professional footballers that have the home advantage this weekend, but Tranmere have struggled this season, don’t keep many clean sheets, and often go behind in matches. Chichester City are enjoying a positive season and could push for promotion and will be buoyed by the fact that this match is being televised and the fact that nobody expects them to win which should make for an entertaining and competitive ninety minutes of FA Cup action.
Zlatan does it very openly, speaks very confidently - and at times it is arrogance, but that is what he is. He used to be like that on a daily basis and would ask me questions such as: 'What is Didier Drogba like?' I would go into detail about what he is good at and Zlatan would be like, 'He is not as good as me' and would make you laugh. They were both very professional on and off the field. The way they looked after their bodies with recovery, knowledge of nutrition.
It was a team that became champions of the world on 30 July the following year, with one of the enduring images of England's 4-2 win after extra time against West Germany a picture of Charlton sinking to his knees, overcome by emotion, before embracing his tearful brother Bobby. Charlton, who won the Footballer of the Year award in 1967, went on to win 35 caps for England, the last of which came in a 1-0 win over Czechoslovakia in a group game at the 1970 Mexico World Cup in June 1970, aged 35.

Gomel played a fantastic game this season and it is one of the best teams in this season so far, it will do all it can to win all matches regardless of the defensive nature of the away side. The away side will defend more in this game to prevent more goals from being scored against them. The expected goals in this match will be more than 4 and most of the goals will come from the home side. An expected scoreline of 3-1,3-0, or 2-0 is likely to happen in this game. At the end-all, the home side will win this match.
In a move mirroring Chelsea's announcement that their hotel adjacent to Stamford Bridge would be used to provide London-based health service workers with board, the former Manchester United captain said he had taken the decision for the common good. Over the past week we have been in consultation with the health services in the Greater Manchester area, in particular the Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, and our 176 beds will be occupied by NHS workers and medical professionals from Friday onwards," he announced.
Speaking of sides who have not had it all their own way over the festive period, that is something which is true of the visitors on New Years Day, Carlisle United. The Cumbrians have claimed just two wins from their last eight outings and sit well down the league table, albeit with plenty of points in hand over the side currently occupying this years only relegation spot.
Big Sam and a team of juggernauts - what could go wrong? Sam Allardyce has ruled himself out of the running for the vacant Huddersfield manager's job. PA Sport *** ‘Chelsea Kante allows for Vardy’ Michael Hincks’ XI: David de Gea (Man Utd); Hector Bellerin (Arsenal), Fabricio Coloccini (Newcastle) Vincent Kompany (Man City), Leighton Baines (Everton); Idrissa Gueye (Villa), N’Golo Kante (Chelsea), Dimitri Payet (West Ham); Harry Kane (Spurs), Luis Suarez (Liverpool), Jamie Vardy (Leicester) Manager: Eddie Howe (Bournemouth) I’ve gone with the Chelsea incarnation of Kante as Jamie Vardy simply cannot be overlooked.
Budge insists the proposal is "a better way for Scottish football to deal with the current emergency, while at the same time righting an unintended injustice". Aberdeen chairman Dave Cormack is "supportive in principle" of Budge's plan and added: "For the survival of Scottish football, I hope every club feels they can get behind this approach. Adding two teams to the top flight would require a change to the distribution of prize money model, but Budge says this would be offset by Premiership clubs not having to finance the £300,000 parachute payment that Hearts would be due on relegation.
In all honesty, this isn't the most appealing fixture from a betting point of view, though those looking to get involved can try 'Liverpool to Score Over 2.5 Goals'. Monterrey tend to concede goals; they've kept just one clean sheet in their last five. Moreover, they fact that they struggled to contain Al Sadd just a few days ago, conceding twice on route to a narrow win, doesn't bode well ahead of a match against a side with such creativity and firepower, and let's face it, Liverpool have notched three against better teams this season.
The EFL will continue to undertake consultation with our members before the next steps are determined," the statement read. Current attention is clearly on the immediate next steps, but the long-term impact on the league and its clubs remains as stark as previously outlined, and solutions are still required to fill the financial hole left by the crisis. The consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic will not be rectified simply by a return to play behind closed doors.

Despite their perilous position on the table, Trélissac have only conceded twelve goals this season, a better tally than current leaders Su00e8te. Their real struggles have been at the other end of the pitch as they've failed to score in six of their last eleven league games but due to this defensive fortitude we don't see this one ending up a cricket score. They have faced two Ligue 1 teams in recent years with both games ending with respectable scores (1-1 penalty win over Lille and a 2-0 defeat to Marseille, both in 2016).
