He leaves with them eighth, 19 points behind leaders Liverpool and eight points off the Champions League places. Emery built his Arsenal on suspect foundations: the summer signing of David Luiz from Chelsea to allegedly add defensive stability as heavily laced with irony as it was with risk. The signing of Matteo Guendouzi, the 20-year-old French midfielder, was an early success but this summer's £72m record signing from Lille, Nicolas Pepe, has failed to deliver while Kieran Tierney arrived from Celtic injured and has so far struggled to get going.

But the celebrations were definitely different. With no fans in the ground, there was no outpouring of emotion from the stands, no roar when the ball crossed the line and no pile-on of players due to social distancing measures. Instead, Haaland's team-mates formed an arc around him from a short distance and applauded as he did a strange dance on his own in the corner. Hertha Berlin forward Vedad Ibisevic, who celebrated with team-mates during their 3-0 win at Hoffenheim, said footballers are "not robots" and have to be "passionate".
Since the start of the 2017-18 season, Burnley striker Chris Wood is one of only 12 players to have scored 30+ Premier League goals (30 in total).

We gifted them two goals really, which we're disappointed with. Our concentration and organisation wasn't quick enough in one or two players. But what we did was show a fantastic mentality to come from behind against a really good side with top-level players. Against a top team it might be deemed a good result but we should win that game. But they've come from a tough game in midweek and battled to get a point.

I knew the angle was tight so I got enough on it to dink it over him. I thought it might be offside - I joked with my dad last night about what if I scored and it was ruled out!"Southampton forward Michael Obafemi: "It was good to get the goal but in the end it didn't mean anything. The boys just have to come together again. We had a good run, we'll try to pick it back up again and hopefully we do.

The five children found included two from Kenya, two teenage girls from London and a boy from Belgium.
Football match from the Tanzania league and we have Mwadui playing against KMC. In this match I will try with under 2.5 goals.

Norwich is currently in the last place of the Premier League and it seems unlikely that they will avoid relegation this season since the quality of their squad is quite low. On this match they will travel to Liverpool to face Everton in a contest against a team that is not having a great season too but Everton is much superior and can't afford to lose points on this match at home against the worst team in the league. For that reason, we will take Everton to cover this -1.25 Asian Handicap as the best line to bet on this match.
It was a real magnificent performance. I thought we were outstanding. To be fair to Alex Dyer, he went with two strikers. But we dealt with that very well. I said to the players 'don't think it's easy what you're doing'. It's important we keep the momentum going. Kilmarnock manager Alex Dyer: "We were doing alright - I thought we were in control. Then they started to play a bit, put us under pressure.

Jim had fought illness with his usual bravery for some time," said Oxford in a statement.
Apparently Stein was jumpy in the moment, ready to swing for his goalkeeper for barely moving as the ball whizzed by him. Williams said he had the situation under control. I knew it was an indirect free-kick and they hit it first time so it was never standing. I think myself and the ref were the only two who knew the story. I went to Big Jock afterwards and I said, 'Boss, the ref just said well done to me for knowing the rules'.
Southend is right now in relegation zone and if they dont start winning games they are surely going to relegate, right now they are winless for a lot of games and if they don't win today I don't know for what they could hope, cause Tranmere first of all is not good team and also they are not in good shape at all and also I think they will be motivated to play versus Watford in a fa cup rematch next week so maybe they even bench some players for this game and that will help Southend to win the game!

And I know when you go to teams like Bolton after being at Celtic, you just don't get the mentality. Then he went to Hibs and has come away with formations that suited the players he had. It was fantastic what he did there.

hallescher is just 3 points above relegation zone and they are surely very motivated to get the win and luckily for them they have to play versus worst team in the league,Jena already relegated and of course they are not in good shape and they are losing games in a row and I don't see how they could avoid losing this one tonight too but also I think it is very realistic they will lost it with at least two goals difference cause their defense is very bad so even 3-0 or maybe 4-0 is not going to be that much of a surprise
