We will respect the winter break - KloppThe Football Association said every club agreed to this season's FA Cup fixture schedule and knew fourth-round replays might cut into their winter breaks, as is also the case with Tottenham, Southampton and Newcastle.

Before Monday's game Bruce described his final days as Villa's boss as "one of the most unsavoury times of my career", culminating in a fan throwing a cabbage at him in his last match in charge. There was to be no happy return to Villa Park after his side fell two goals behind, with Heaton in fine form. The England keeper, who held a Jonjo Shelvey free-kick when it was goalless, preserved Villa's advantage with an excellent reaction stop to push Fernandez's header over the bar at the end of the first half.

Arsenal overcame struggling Bournemouth at Vitality Stadium to set up an FA Cup fifth-round trip to Portsmouth. Mikel Arteta's side were good value for their victory, the platform for progress into the next round built on first-half goals from Bukayo Saka and Eddie Nketiah. Bournemouth substitute Sam Surridge pulled a goal back deep into eight minutes of stoppage to give the scoreline a look of respectability and give Arsenal some late anxious moments, but in reality the Gunners were by far the superior team.
Since then he has teamed up with Monkman to present their 'Genius Guide to Britain', a road-trip series that was shown on BBC Two.

Comedian Kevin Bridges still could not resist a dig. View more on twitterThe Magpies were now in the ascendancy. Saint-Maximin and Matt Ritchie put the home side 2-0 up.

Oostende has started this season, with some mixed results, so far. All of that was enough just for the 14th place. They will strive to get a better position in the future, but that will be a tough job. They will look for a surprise in this game with their complete squad. At this moment, no key-injuries and suspensions are listed. In most of the games Oostende played in, both teams scored. That is something that I can’t see happening in this game, as they have some trouble scoring lately and tradition isn’t on their side also. Also, if we include how tough Club Brugge’s defense is, we get the point. Another loss is probably underway.
It is with great disappointment that we've had to make this decision," joint-chairman David Sullivan said. Manuel is a gentleman and it has been a real pleasure to work with someone of his calibre. However, it has become clear that that a change is required to get the club back on track in line with our ambitions this season.
Tranmere are far from a terrible team. However, they shouldn't be able to beat Watford. The entertaining draw between these two teams was something of an anomaly created by complacency from the Premier League outfit. It's a complacency that they haven't shown at any other point during Pearson's reign and we don't expect it to be present on Thursday night. Back Watford to book their progress to the fourth round with a win in normal time.
Reaction & as it happenedNow only a matter of time? Perhaps due to the cavernous gap to the rest, United have struggled in recent weeks in their quest to get over the line as quickly as possible, having failed to win their previous three league matches. But they had put seven goals in two games past Inverness already this season despite the Highland side's place in the table giving them the status of nearest challengers.
Even the excitement of media day, doing it over Zoom is different. But we are delighted we are back playing and giving people something to watch in difficult times. Victory for the Blades at Villa Park would take Wilder's men into fifth with nine games left.

It is not the first time fans have protested against the club's hierarchy. They vented their frustrations during a march outside the stadium ahead of the game against arch-rivals Liverpool in October.

This is the turmoil of a goalkeeper during penalty kicks and it’s time for that to change. It’s time to kill the ball dead after it’s taken. If it goes in, it’s a goal, if it’s a save then it’s a save. If the keeper tips it behind or parries it out of play then it is a throw or a corner and if it comes back up they can gather and play resumes from them.
Renzo Ulivieri, president of the Italian coaches' association (AIAC), said that Serie A's announcement was overbearing and that reductions were inadmissible for lower-ranked coaching staff who in some cases earn below the national average. On Monday, Serie A proposed cutting annual wages by one-third if the competition - which has been suspended since March 9 - was unable to resume this season and by one-sixth if it was able to restart.
I am looking forward to getting back to work with the team as soon as possible," said former England international Neville. We have a fantastic squad of players and there is plenty to work on as we look to progress as a team going into 2021. Who could replace Neville for England?Lionesses need an experienced manager - Brown-FinnisThe 43-year-old former Manchester United and Everton defender was appointed in January 2018 on a contract until the summer of 2021.
The forward has hit 16 goals in 29 appearance for his national team so has pedigree but has struggled to meet expectations at the Bridge since his move in 2014, and could be sold in the summer with his contract set to expire in 2021. WHO IS INTERESTED? Crystal Palace, where he spent last season on loan, are known admirers, as are Aston Villa should they manage to stave off relegation.
A nine point gap exists between Manchester City and Liverpool, it could reach double figures unless City win this game. Liverpool should get a win over Brighton, so this trip to Newcastle has to end in a win for City. They remain in good form and even without Aguero have the firepower to cause problems for any team. Their opponents lost on Monday and aren't the most consistent team around. Go for City to win and be ahead at both half and full time.

The home team can cause some trouble for a good away team in this match, the home team have showed they can win matches and have won 6 in a row at home. They have been one very powerful team when it comes to scoring goals and have had no trouble with doing this. They are starting to become better at defending in their matches as well, they are playing good all over the ground and not really allowing any teams who visit here to take any control of the games and this has allowed the home team to win more
Chindia Targoviste is in a pretty bad form right now as they have only one win in their last 5 games. This season, they have a goal ratio of 18:24 which is decent. That is mostly because of their poor play away from their home ground. A win from this game would mean a lot to them in many ways. Of course, they need points, but there is also something that is called tradition. They need to stop it, on their behalf and behalf of their fans. Their best goalscorer is Christian Negut who has only 2 goals so far by his name, so he will be their main guy here.
