He said 'you’re going to get a pay cut to go to United'. I said I don’t care. Make this deal happen. I want to go to United. I don’t care how much is the pay cut, I know that, make it happen.

Indeed, Palmeiras were knocked out of the Copa Libertadores by Gremio at the quarter final stage and some 16 points behind Flamengo in the table, it's clear they've been well short of the required standard. Having now failed to win any of their last 4 games, losing the last 2, it's clear Palmeiras' minds are now elsewhere and all concerned just want 2019 to come to a close.

Another super interesting match from this round in Bundesliga in Germany and another very very interesting duel. After Werder is lost at home more than easy against Bayer Leverkusen 1-4, I was pretty sure that this team will lost and in second match after brake of Corona Virus, against Freiburg, but that was not happened. Werder is beat them 1-0 as a guests. It will be very very hard to do that again, against Borussia, so my option here surely will be goals, who are very good option. I will bet on over 3 and try with that here surely.
Born not far from London's docklands in Barking during the Blitz in 1941, Moore joined local club West Ham United in 1956 and made his first-team debut in 1958 against Manchester United. He immortalised the No. Hammers, making 647 appearances before joining Fulham in 1974. West Ham won the FA Cup in 1964 and Cup Winners' Cup in 1965 as Moore established himself as one of the world's best defenders.
Jan Vertonghen's family was held at knifepoint as four armed men burgled his home while he was on Champions League duty with Tottenham on Tuesday.

The rest of the top three, Leicester and City, look pretty safe to me too, but after that it is up for grabs. With 11 games to go, eight points separate eight teams from Chelsea in fourth to Everton in 11th"It is exciting because you have got the likes of Sheffield United punching above their weight but the big clubs involved in this particular race have all been in a bit of a mess at different times this season - they were expected to be doing much better than this.
I understand why some City fans will always want to see them win the Premier League above anything else. The recent domestic success they have seen, particularly over the past couple of seasons, has been amazing and something no English club has managed before. However, a first Champions League title would be so valuable because, globally, it would see City grow even more than they have done in the past decade.
But after the match, replays were shown from various angles that suggested both of Matic’s yellow cards were a little soft.

These teams have been both strong teams for getting the ball into the box this season and this could be a very high scoring match with how open they play their matches against each other. Can see this match having a lot of goals but will play it safe and pick over 2 for the match. This will be attacking right from the start, as both of these teams do not usually look to defend as much as some other teams do, they look to play some faster football and look to get in to dangerous scoring positions more often
Football Association chairman Greg Clarke says he is "disappointed" after claiming the professional game representatives on the FA board blocked a move to try to improve the diversity of its members. In a letter to the FA Council, Clarke said a number of options were discussed at last week's board meeting, including making Paul Elliott - chair of the Inclusion Advisory Board - a director. He says the representatives of the EFL and Premier League "were against such a review".
He added: "Slowly we need to build that back to where it was because it's going to be very powerful for us to use that. Arsenal's next game is at home to London rivals Chelsea on Sunday (14:00 GMT), when they will be aiming for their first Premier League win at Emirates Stadium since defeating Bournemouth 1-0 on 6 October. The Gunners start the weekend in 11th place, eight points behind the fourth-placed Blues.
Despite suffering just their second league loss of the campaign, clinching the title with seven games to go is the earliest any team in English top-flight history has managed to achieve the feat. Having thrashed Crystal Palace at Anfield on 24 June and become champions the following day, Liverpool may point to a week of celebrations for their off-day in Manchester. The Merseysiders started sharply, pressing and harrying their opponents and even striking the post through Salah on 20 minutes, but capitulated once the first goal went in and never managed to recover.
They are all Chris Wilder's players and he knows what they will do on the pitch and in the dressing room. At Premier League level you cannot have one or two bad apples. It just doesn't work. This club can stay up'While Fulham spent around £100m on new players after winning promotion in 2018 - only to be relegated a few months later - Wilder has adopted a different approach. Sheffield United did agree a club-record deal worth up to £20m for Scotland striker McBurnie from Swansea in August, but they have certainly not broken the bank.

He wanted to see me first and was disappointed. The talks went really well, were positive and I was impressed with what he said. I had to make a decision and at one point I was going to Manchester United, I was 90% certain. Then I got a call from Keegan, who wanted to see me again, and I thought 'I am going to go back to Newcastle'. It was a club I always supported. Do I have any regrets? No, I would do the same again.

I'm sure that if the Premier League follows its own rules and charter, especially the owners' and directors' test, it will block the sale of Newcastle United to Mohamed bin Salman and the Public Investment Fund he chairs.

In addition to concerns about Saudi Arabia's human rights record, broadcast piracy claims have also been raised in the media.

The feeling is it's muscular," said Guardiola. Midfielders Rodri and David Silva were also substituted but the City boss said that was just "cramps and tiredness".

But people at Liverpool who have spoken to Klopp say he regards it as a 'line in the sand' moment with regard to player welfare and believes that for his opposition to the present situation to carry any weight, he must follow through his argument that the winter break was introduced to give players a rest.
