However, it is understood the 49-year-old has said he will not be doing that and remains committed to the club. Guardiola is likely to discuss the issue after Wednesday's rearranged Premier League game against West Ham. In a bizarre situation, neither side has played since the initial game was postponed due to bad weather on 9 February. As both clubs held pre-match news conferences two days before the game was supposed to be played, they have been told by the Premier League there is no contractual requirement to hold another and it is understood neither side will do so.
A "ritiro" - where the team is confined to a hotel or sometimes the club's own training base - is a common practice in Italian football for sides on a bad run. Earlier this month, Napoli issued a statement to say the club would "protect" its rights, and clarified that the ritiro was not a punishment for players but a "constructive" move.

We feel that this game is likely to be low scoring. Monchengladbach have not been scoring freely in recent weeks. Furthermore, their away goalscoring record has been poor, of late. We feel that they are unlikely to open the floodgates versus a Hertha side who have kept a clean sheet in their last two Bundesliga games.
Gandzasar is going to face Banants. The hosts won one of two matches played after the break and scored 1 goal. They do not play well in this season and they are struggling to score goals. They scored 21 goals and conceded 26 in 20 matches and that's why I don't expect many goals today. Banants is not the best on away and they scored 12 goals in this season. I think that the visitors are able to win this match but I don't think that we will see open games and more than 2 goals. My bet for this match is under 2.25 goals
His finish into the bottom right corner came too quickly for Pope to react. TALKING POINT Dominant Spurs overpower desperate Clarets. After the defeat at former club Manchester United last week, Mourinho will have demanded a response and he got it. Not only were Kane, Son, Lucas and Dele all on fire from the off, despite the latter’s impressive scoring run coming to an end, but they also kept their first clean sheet of the new era and just their second in the Premier League this season.

I'd like to thank the board for the backing they have given me already in my time at the club and also most importantly, the Rangers fans who have given me and the team such tremendous backing both this season and last. Gerrard's assistant Gary McAllister, along with coaches Michael Beale, Tom Culshaw, Colin Stewart, Jordan Milsom, Mark Waller, Scott Mason and Graeme Stevenson, have also renewed their contracts.
This is their game in hand on the top four and a win over 10th placed FC Koln will take them up to third. Monchengladbach had been unbeaten in their last five league matches before their weekend home defeat. They went behind early in that game, equalized in the second half but conceded again 19 minutes from time.
It's pretty surprising that Saka hasn't already been tied down to a new deal, but Arsenal have a history of poor contract dealings. The club can't afford to lose their best academy graduates, especially if they fail to qualify for the Europa League next season. If some of the club's bigger stars leave the north London outfit next season due to a lack of European football, Arteta will be relying on Saka - and the rest - to step up.
We are doing a very good job in this competition but we need to make sure of our first position in the table. Our second objective is to win and take confidence as well as connect with our supporters," Emery told reporters. My only focus is to show tomorrow our performance and connect with our supporters.

Cremonese welcomes Pisa in the battle at the bottom of the table. This is a 6 point match which juts may end in a draw as it often happens in these kinds of matches. Cremonese has 4-4-2 at home but they often win with just 1:0 as they only scored 8 times in 10 home matches. They had some decent results at home lately and the visitors are just right for a win. Pisa is ranked 14`th with 26 points while Cremonese is with 24 points and on 17th place. Pisa has 2-4-4 away from home but they will be extra weakened today. They will miss Goucher and the alpha and omega Marconi(14-10). Advantage home side.
The London Stadium played host to 380 football journalists in their various guises. The guy on the gate who distributes the passes and, it is not unkind to say, has been round the block a few times, said it was unprecedented. That may or may not be true. But, beyond question, Mourinho is box office. He may say, as he did again on Saturday, it is "not about him". But it regularly seems to end up being all about him.
In recent weeks, Sardegna Arena has become a very tough place to go. Cagliari have won each of their last four at home, scoring a whopping 14 goals in the process. They're also now unbeaten in six in front of a home crowd, five of which they've won. Conceding goals has been a bit of a worry – Cagliari are without a clean sheet in three at home and have conceded seven goals in that time – but their ultra-effective forward-line has seen them through.

How those concerns were justified. The club had started to creak under the folly of owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett. Liverpool's best days under the manager who brought them the Champions League in 2005 and the FA Cup the following year were gone. The season that should have made up for a near miss was miserable. Liverpool finished seventh. Benitez was sacked. Roy Hodgson and the returning Dalglish were in a holding pattern without title aspirations, although the latter won the League Cup in 2012, until the next near miss that came from nowhere.
I have made the decision so I don't cause trouble for my team and my fans. Kawasumi is the latest from the sporting world to voice fears about participating in the Summer Olympics or related events because of the coronavirus epidemic. Team Canada announced it would not send its athletes to Tokyo 2020, after the International Olympic Committee said it would reach a decision within four weeks on whether to postpone the Games.
Roma is not a bad side in fact in 5 away games played by them in the league this season they have 4 wins and just one defeat, problem being they played 3 games in the league with AC Milan in the past two seasons twice at home and lost all 3 two of them even by 3 goals difference losing last season with 4-1 here and also 2-1 at home, this while at the start of this new season AC Milan paid a visit to AS Roma W and won there with no less than 3-0 in the end.
Olivier Giroud scored his first Premier League goal of the season - and his first since April - as Chelsea beat Tottenham 2-1 to tighten their grip on fourth place. See alsoMatchcast: Chelsea v Tottenham Hotspur Marcos Alonso added a second for the Blues, who were made to sweat the final few minutes when Antonio Rudiger turned into his own net.
Academica Clinceni will host Chindia Targoviste for this fixture of the league. I expect this will be tough match for both sides. Both teams are one of the weak teams in this campaign. Both teams are currently bottom of the table. In my opinion, the hosts are small favorites. Academica have advantage at home stadium. Also, Academica have better results in the last mutual matches. Nevertheless, I think, the visitors will try to provide a strong resistance. I expect, the visitors will try to pick up the victory on the opposite stadium. In previous game Chindia is won 2-1 against Viitorul Constanta.
Nobody sends you a video of a bad player'Hearts manager Robbie NeilsonI'm not 100% sure what is happening with the window. I think it opened for a few days, then it will close again, then it will try to tie in with the English window. But I think it will cause us problems, because we'll close and the English window will stay open. The whole balance has changed. There are loads of players available because of the finances and there are very few clubs who are willing to bring them in, so your bargaining position now is a lot stronger.
They got the job done against Norwich, but they will certainly be counting their lucky stars. Better finishing and the Canaries' survival hopes would have been dealt a boost at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, which says a great deal about how far Spurs have fallen. The football was flat for much of the encounter, with a huge defection needed to find that winner.

Messi rolled home the opener, and winner, with 14 minutes left to play, finishing a move which involved Riqui Puig, Antoine Griezmann and Arturo Vidal. It was a demonstration of what Setien wants from his new team. Video - Barca face competition for Serie A wonderkid - Euro Papers01:29 TALKING POINT - ‘Tiki-Taka’ is back at Barcelona The biggest criticism of Ernesto Valverde as Barcelona boss was that his pragmatism diluted the club’s famed philosophy.
This potential success is not born of their own acumen but it is rather a function of being extremely and disproportionately wealthy in relation to their peers. That, friends, is similar to privilege: buy yourself out of mistakes that would have deep consequences for those without access to extreme wealth.
Ming Chuan University and Red Lions will face each other in the upcoming match in the Premier League in Taiwan. Ming Chuan University this season have the following results: 0W, 1D and 3L. Meanwhile Red Lions have 0W, 0D and 4L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
The Serie A title race took another twist last weekend, with Inter Milan dropping points at Fiorentina. It was another unlucky slip for the Nerazzurri, with Antonio Conte once again bemoaning his sides inability to close out a game. Having dropped four points in the space of a week, Inter were left trailing Juve, albeit with the clubs on the same points total.
This is the last chance for Ostrava side to make any move toward the first challenger in the fight to avoid relegation, and they should pull from all power for the victory in Sokolov, against Banik here. Host is few points above, but they are not having much better shape, and should not be big favorite in this duel.
This fixture features No. 17 vs No. 2 in the league, Leyton Orient vs Forest Green Rovers. The hosts coming from a 0 - 2 home loss to Scunthorpe United (no. 19 in the league) and that is also their last home game. The visitors coming from a 0 - 1 home loss to Plymouth Argyle (No. 10 in the league) and their last away game a 1 - 2 win to Cheltenham Town. The visitors should win this one as they played a higher table team than the hosts and conceded one goal to lose the match then won their last away game to a team above the hosts facing a team coming from playing a team below the themselves, not scoring and conceding multiple goals to lose the match so a win to the visitors.
As City strenuously deny those charges, it has been business as usual on the pitch, with more silverware heading to Etihad Stadium. This should have been a win secured in relative comfort but a failure to put Villa away completely led to anxiety and they needed a superb late save from the often-criticised 36-year-old Chilean keeper Claudio Bravo to turn Bjorn Engels' header on to the upright. City still have that soft underbelly in defence, which Guardiola will presumably address in the summer.
I will back Nantes to win this fixture because they have been more solid this season than their opponents, coming with fine morale managing a second half goal in the 72 minute last round with defensive minded Dijon at home but they really deserved the win and are in the first half of the league table at this moment.
A large win is expected for BATE here at home vs Neman Grodno: after a very difficult start in this season, with 2 losses in the first 2 matches of this League, BATE has now found a very good shape, coming from 3 wins and a draw in the last 4 official games and having even conceded no goal in all of those matches. Neman has lost all of the last 7 matches played here and has even scored no goal in 4 out of the last 5, so scoring twice should be enough for the home team to win by more than a goal.
Not even in my wildest dreams could I have imagined this. I have to thank the club. I'm excited about this challenge and this project. He added: "Yesterday, I was walking around my home town with cows around me and now I'm here at Barcelona managing the best players in the world. Guillem Balague column: Why Quique Setien was appointed and why Xavi said noAfter managing lower-league sides, Setien led Las Palmas to 11th in La Liga - their best finish for 40 years - and enjoyed further success at Betis, where in his first season he led them to sixth place and qualification for the Europa League.
In terms of a correct score tip, we do not expect this one to be a particularly high scoring affair. The hosts have scored an average of 1.31 goals per game and conceded almost as frequently. Meanwhile, 33% of Bradford’s away matches have finished in a 1-1 draw so far this season. It is a result which we believe will be repeated this weekend.
He does polarise opinion though. And those who have little time for the 57-year-old dismiss Tottenham's injury issues and say he is using them as an excuse. Those who get to know Mourinho properly tend to judge him less harshly. At Tottenham, he is liked by those who have to deal with him regularly and see a humorous side that is not on public show very often these days. And it is hard not to feel there is substance to Mourinho's view of his situation given he is shorn of more than just Harry Kane and Son Heung-min, his two major goal threats.
In partnership with the WHO, we are launching awareness building initiatives designed to provide practical recommendations and steps to tackle the spread of Covid-19.

No need to sign up to anything too long term. Just in case. IN OTHER NEWS Poor Paulo Dybala. Could have had the move of his dreams to Manchester United. Instead he got stuck at little old Juventus, where he has to play alongside Gonzalo Higuain and score goals like this. RETRO CORNER A quite literal retro corner here: 17 years ago today, Graeme Le Saux pinged the ball into the Norwich City penalty area, and Gianfranco Zola backheeled it into the net.
And the hosts secured all three points in the seventh of those, as England Under-21 forward Rianna Dean headed into the top corner for her second goal in as many games. Elsewhere there were wins in rearranged Women's FA Cup ties for fourth-tier Billericay and third-tier Sunderland over Actonians and AFC Fylde, earning them respective fourth-round ties against Lewes and Watford.
Dejan Kulusevski’s early opener was cancelled out by an Arkadiusz Milik header midway through the second half, but Gervinho finished off a clinical counter-attack to earn his side a late victory. Former AC Milan boss Gattuso was brought in to replace the sacked Carlo Ancelotti last week after a poor start to the season left Napoli in seventh place and on their worst run of league form in 19 years.
