And Gregor Townsend coaches the Scotland rugby team. All of them have one thing in common - Hutchison Vale. The Edinburgh boys' club was accepted as the Scottish FA's 90th member club in August 2018 - under the name Lothian Thistle Hutchison Vale - but their contribution to the national game already outstrips that of many of their new rivals. But what has made them so successful? 'We walked past it.

Lindsay Johnson: Jordan Henderson (8)It's because of his determination on and off the pitch. A true professional, he has been instrumental in Liverpool's momentum. Tim Cahill: Kevin de Bruyne (8)The maturity Jordan has shown as a leader, and for that football club, you can't put a price on it.
With Italy in lockdown and Serie A and other major soccer leagues closed for the foreseeable future due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Ibrahimovic returned to Stockholm, where authorities are taking a somewhat more lax approach. Plenty of businesses have been allowed to remain open and gatherings of up to 50 people are still allowed, with many of the country's elite soccer clubs back in training.
Newcastle United v Norwich City *Norwich have beaten Newcastle in their previous two Premier League meetings, scoring three goals each time. Newcastle's last top-flight victory over Norwich was a 6-2 thrashing in 2015. Following a run of three consecutive defeats, Steve Bruce's Newcastle are unbeaten in their last three games.
I know that the hierarchy didn't want me there, but Kenny Dalglish insisted and I thank Kenny for that to my dying day because I wanted to be a coach. You had a big split in the dressing room. You had players who were bigger than others. It was very obvious the disrespect they had for Bobby Petta and Stiliyan Petrov. I had them crying in my office. I knew it wouldn't last. I said to my wife after one week, 'Don't move up, because this is not going to work,' and that was when things were going well in the first six to eight games.
Tianjin Tianhai and Dalian Yifang FC will face each other in the upcoming match in the Super League in China. Tianjin Tianhai this season have the following results: 3W, 13D and 12L.

Since Grimbsy Town appointed Ian Holloway, after holding talks at a fish and chip restaurant in Cleethorpes, it has been a story of positivity for the Mariners.Holloway had been out of management since leaving QPR in May 2018 but the 56-year-old agreed to come back to the club and succeed Michael Jolley, who was sacked in November after a seven-game winless run.
I don't see too many goals in this match from Romania elite league, because it is clear that both teams are playing very strong in defense, so for me it is natural that we will see match in who is not impossible, that it will be maybe and 0-0. So, Gaz Metan is team who is in last few matches at home played 1-0, 0-1 or 0-0, while Cluj is surely the best defense in league, that is clear. I see very very slow match here and small number of chances. In any case, two goals are maximum for this duel.
I spoke to Joe the night before I went in. He really helped. He said when I was being sick or at the toilet to remember it was making me better. My immune system was so low I couldn't be in a room with more than six or eight people because of the risk of infection. I wasn't allowed to go and see friends - but I didn't want to.
Frank Lampard’s main issue to contend with is a noticeable fragility to his back line. Chelsea have kept just one clean sheet away from home in the Premier League this season, conceding 19 goals on their travels in total. Admittedly, they have also managed to score in all but one game, but these defensive problems pile the pressure on their attacking players.
Liverpool are first on the table and most probably they are new champions. The atmosphere in the squad is good, though the last results are not that good. They suffered a heavy 3:0 defeat to Watford and suffered elimination from Atletico Madrid in the Champions League. On Sunday they played a goalless draw with Everton in the Merseyside derby. It is clear the Reds are not at their best. This is the key reason why I think Crystal Palace will remain unbeaten at Anfield tonight. The Eagles are in series of four victories in the Premier League and the players confidence is very high.
Leverkusen have managed to win just three of their last 10 Bundesliga games. They have lost four games during this same 10 game period. They managed to earn some big wins versus Bayern Munich and Schalke in recent weeks. However, Leverkusen have been particularly struggling in games versus bottom-half teams, of late.
Even as a teenager, he had it all mapped out. I see myself in the Premier League,” he said during his time at Novara. It is the most beautiful championship; for the stadiums, for the fans. COMING UP Not much going on today: a sprinkling of Copa del Rey here, a soupcon of Coupe de France there. Give yourself a day off.
From the last nine previous games, the home team has managed to showcase a game which ends with at least three goals total tally for the whole game in eight games. Their last game was a four nil score sheet not in their favor meaning when they decide to be generous at the back indeed they can be and and also from their history one can see if they decide to be ruthless they can score goals. The same can be said about the away team, producing games with many goals. Since both teams enjoy games full of goals I expect even more than three goals in this game.
Vitebsk will host BATE in the Vysshaya Liga of Belarus on Sunday. Vitebsk played mostly draws in the recent matches as all the last four games ended in a Draw. They Drawn last game to Energetic BGU by 3-3. Vitebsk Scored 11 goals in 11 matches and conceded 13 in return. While BATE Borisov are currently on top of the table and Scored 23 goals in 11 matches.

He's now Arsenal manager," Guardiola added. We prepared the Leicester game without him and tried to work the way we have the last years. We will work a little bit harder, that's all. Guardiola confirmed midfielder Kevin De Bruyne was not injured after he hobbled off with a cramp during Saturday's win over Leicester City but David Silva, Sergio Aguero and John Stones remain sidelined.
Europe is not something we're thinking about," said Wilder. A previous question got this response: "Europe? It might be the end-of-season trip to Magaluf again. It was always the norm for the older generation, you'd see 20 teams out there in May so that might be the same for us. But with the majority of their remaining matches against teams in the bottom half, it may well be Madrid and Milan on the players' minds soon, not just Majorca.

Effective, efficient, careful. Not extraordinary. To return to a Pogba of pure excellence it is necessary to go back to his most "immature" age, in the 3-5-2 of Antonio Conte. Juventus' Paul Pogba celebrates after scoring. Reuters Juventus remains the club where he played the best football of his career although as he progressed from Conte to Allegri some of his current chameleon cavalry began, an infinite journey of adaptations to the needs of the collective, carrying out the needs of the coaches rather than satisfying the individual.

They worked very hard to put us under pressure and close us down. We struggled to move the ball today. We had to move it sideways a lot and when we lost the ball going across the line it created problems for ourselves. Preston boss Alex Neil:"It took a deflected effort for them to get something from the game. Naturally we are disappointed not to win but I am proud of my players," he said. They are one of the top sides in this division and we more than matched them.
Restart of the season now in the lower division of Spain. The two teams are close to the relegation zone and have to look further to collect points. Oviedo sit 17th in the standings and only 1 point ahead of the relegation zone, Ponferradina is ranked 11th in the standings but the bottom line is that they are only 5 points ahead of the relegation. Ponferradina narrowly won 2-1 in the first leg, here I expect a 1-1 draw. Both teams stand by 5 points in the table. Real Oviedo has 8 draws at home in 15 games this season. Ponferradina is the worst away team but has good number of draws.

Werner made his Germany debut against England in March 2017 and has since scored 11 goals in 29 gamesWerner and Abraham partnership?It is difficult to assess what sort of character Chelsea will be getting in Werner.

Montpellier will be looking to pile on the pressure here as they face an Amiens side desperate not to make it three defeats in a row. However, at the expense of the Unicorns we're backing the hosts to get the win here. Montpellier would've won their clash with Saint-Étienne last week if it hadn’t been for poor finishing and we expect them to bounce back here with a win to continue their excellent home form. Amiens have scored in each of their last five away games though so we're expecting this to end 2-1 to the hosts.We’re also backing Montpellier to score over 1.5 goals in this match as thehome side have netted eighttimes in their last four matches while Amiens have conceded eleven in their last five.
Six Barcelona board members have resigned and told president Josep Maria Bartomeu they are unhappy at how the club is being managed. In a joint letter, the six expressed concern over the financial implications of the coronavirus crisis for the club.

And they called for Barca to call new presidential elections.
When I was going from Arsenal to City to start coaching and we were looking at that position, he was one of the players on my list," Arteta, a former Arsenal midfielder, told the British media before his first match in charge at Bournemouth on Thursday.

The midfielder's strike was the fastest by a Serie A substitute since Levan Mchedlidze's goal for Empoli against Sassuolo after just 14 seconds in March 2015.

LONDON, Feb 2 (Reuters) - Steven Bergwijn made an instant impact on his Tottenham Hotspur debut with a stunning opener in his side's 2-0 win over champions Manchester City in an incident-packed Premier League game on Sunday.

Rangers haven't won a cup game against Celtic in normal time for some years, but that may not bother them, as they too come into this game in fine form.

They recently beat a very useful Porto side, so they're no back number in this fixture.
