Arsenal splashed out a club record £72m to sign Nicolas Pepe, Tottenham spent £53. Tanguy Ndombele while Manchester United brought in Harry Maguire from Leicester for £80m - a world record fee for a defender. Back in August, BBC Sport readers voted for who they thought was the signing of the summer and it was Pepe who came out on top. That's not quite worked out, and while there is time for Pepe to come good it's not going to happen before the end of 2019.
We are guided by organisations and governments. When the stands are full, that's when it's your time to shine. That's why we do it, we're doing it for them. When they're not there, it's not the same experience. European soccer's governing body UEFA will hold a video conference meeting of all 55 federations plus representatives of clubs, leagues and players to discuss the virus's impact on all football in the region, including Euro 2020.
You may lose a bit of pace here and there, but you don't lose your vision and quality. It will be a great atmosphere on Thursday just to get a glimpse of him, I'm excited and I think the fans are the same. This result (win against Charlton) has just given everyone a little belief again because looking at the league table after the weekend it was a bit of a concern. And it still is because Derby need to go on and get back-to-back wins and go on a consistent run of results and performances.

But the new format was not an immediate success. St Johnstone were cut off early, eventually finishing 21 points adrift of Dundee, who were also relegated despite gathering the same number of points as Aberdeen and Dundee United. Just 13 years earlier, the Dens Park side had played in a European Cup semi-final. Hearts, Hibernian and Motherwell would all go down in the subsequent seasons; further victims of a structure in which 20% of the sides were relegated at the end of a 36-game campaign.
Their recent matches have been high scoring, with three of the last five producing over 2. They have not had the best results in the Ligue 1 though; in the last five matches, they have no clean sheets and have lost four. They have conceded two or more goals in four of their last five Ligue 1 matches and failed to score in two.
Hello everyone tipsters from this great game. Again we have a Premier league game and this will be a very good game for watching because this season this two teams are very good and they play nice football. The home team must to take this game because they have just one win from eighth games and if the want to attack first fourth teams they must to take win from Leicester. The guest team the same need to win because they are in war with City for second place. Woolvs play very nice with this opponent and I will think they will take this game.
German supporters view pyrotechnics as part of their fan culture, which is widely regarded as one of the most vibrant in Europe. German state-owned broadcaster Deutsche Welle has said Bundesliga clubs last season paid a combined total of over one million euros in fines for their fans' use of flares, smoke bombs and fireworks.

In the statement, Chief Executive Peter Lawwell said: “I would like to pay tribute to Neil and the players for their desire to play their part and the outcomes achieved.
International cricket, like most other sports, has been shut down while the world battles the pandemic and Paine said it did not take "Einstein" to conclude that Australia's tour of Bangladesh would probably not go ahead in June. With other tours also on hold, it has been suggested that the International Cricket Council might need to push back the conclusion of the inaugural edition of the test championship.
Barnsley is still in relegation zone with 4 points shy and of course they need the win but is is going to be very hard for them to get it because Preston is better team then them and also Preston just won the game after a very long time do even draw for Barnsley Will be a good result and on the other side draw is good result for Preston too because they are not so good on the road, so I decide to go with draw and who wants to risk I recommend to him to try with 1 1 correct score

Another interesting match for next morning and this one is from elite league in Indonesia, where I hope that we can see at least three goals, what is pretty real. So, Bali United is interesting team who is lost in last match against Ceres Negros, even 4-0, while Madura United is coming in this match after 0-0, 4-0, 2-1, 2-4 and 0-1 in last five duels in league. For me, with this form of this two rivals and with this excellent odds of 1,85 it is pretty ok and real to try. I will take this bet earlier, surely. It is real.

Their manager Chris Wilder is a Sheffield hero too, and I think they are going to have a bumper Boxing Day. Man Utd v Newcastle (17:30)I cannot believe that, after Sunday's defeat by Watford, Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer came in said they had played like they were in a testimonial in the first half. I really don't get that. Even if you thought it, you would not say it to the press because instantly you are going to be asked 'why you didn't motivate them better, and get them at it?'It tells you a lot about the character - or perhaps the lack of it - in Solskjaer's squad that they go to Manchester City away and play extremely well, then two weeks later they are away at Watford and don't turn up.

Footballers in the Netherlands' top two divisions will not play during the first minute of their matches this weekend to draw attention to racism. It comes after the racial abuse of Excelsior's Ahmad Mendes Moreira by Den Bosch fans on Sunday. While players in the Eredivisie and Eerste Divisie stand still, the message 'Racism? Then we don't play football' will appear on scoreboards. An extra minute will be added on to injury time in the first-half.
And it was not a surprise to see him race across to referee Mike Dean as the half-time whistle sounded. Coady appeared to ask the official, "Who is offside, Jota? From a corner?" before walking away after receiving no answer, saying "You're the referee and even you don't know. Speaking to BT Sport after the match his sense of frustration was evident: "I've spoken before, it doesn't really get you anywhere.

Last month, the 31-year-old was publicly revealing his tough situation at Barcelona as he accused the club of "taking the ball away" from him. Four consecutive starts later and Camp Nou is suddenly the "perfect place" for him. All footballers want to be starting, but due to the inflated squad numbers in the modern game, not everyone can start.
Real Madrid forward Eden Hazard will miss Wednesday's Champions League last-16 tie against Manchester City after fracturing his ankle. Hazard, 29, hobbled off in the second half of Real's La Liga 1-0 loss to Levante on Saturday. The Belgian only returned to action last week after missing almost three months with a similar injury. Following tests, Hazard has been diagnosed with a fracture to his right distal fibula," a club statement said.
Hibs don't come into this derby with huge momentum behind them given they've lost their last two matches, but said defeats did come at the hands of Rangers and Celtic. Prior to those games, they hammered Aberdeen 3-0 and went on a run that featured four wins from six outings; so there's clearly something positive to work with in away ranks.
Nice have recently had an awful record in this competition with them exiting at the ninth round (the first stage that Ligue 1 teams enter) in each of the last five years. They have never really had an easy first round with many Ligue 1 teams like Toulouse and Rennes knocking them out in recent years but they finally have a great opportunity to progress here against Étoile.
Villa are one of six sides realistically fighting against the drop, with anyone from 15th down looking over their shoulder. Norwich are bottom and six points from safety but were the only side in the bottom three to have won any of their four previous games before football's suspension. A run of seven defeats in 10 games had seen Bournemouth drop into the bottom three but they had been struggling with injuries to several first-team players.

Last season and the previous ones – when we play in Liverpool and in the second game [against them], there were decisions … but you have to overcome. Many things happen but it’s football. I would like it to be more fair and hopefully it can be fair for both sides. I don’t like to win with the wrong decisions.
One clear factor ahead of this match is the defensive failings shown by the two sides. PSG have two clean sheets in their last nine matches and Nice have one clean sheet in their last five matches. While PSG have done well at home, Nice have not had the best of times away from home, with just one win in 12 away matches. Based on the scoring, and home/away form, we are backing PSG for a win but we expect Nice to score. Correct score 3-1.
Did you know? Jota has scored 10 goals in his past 12 appearances for Wolves in all competitions - he has only scored in four of those games, netting at least two goals in each (two braces and two hat-tricks). Dwight McNeil: He should have scored earlier in the match when he smashed a left-foot shot against the post. Undeterred, McNeil battled on regardless and got the goal that crowned an impressive performance against a harshly treated Bournemouth side desperate for points.

STOCKHOLM, Dec 27 (Reuters) - Zlatan Ibrahimovic's decision to return to AC Milan and Italy for what may prove to be the final chapter of his storied career will provide a fascinating twist in the tale of a Serie A season that has been anything but rewarding for the "Rossoneri" so far. The second-most successful club in Italy behind Juventus in terms of league titles, Milan are parked in an undignified 10th spot in the standings as the announcement of the Swedish goal-scorer's return was made on Friday evening.
Nicolas Pepe is going to have to improve. Gabriel Martinelli should have come on a lot earlier. Granit Xhaka was taking the easy way out. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said he was pained by the result but refused to blame his players. It hurts a lot. It's cruel. It's a massive disappointment but at the same time I'm proud of the players," Arteta said.

The 2019-20 WSL season was suspended and then curtailed because of the coronavirus outbreak so final league standings were decided on a points-per-game basisStoney said her staff created an environment in which the players felt challenged and were "expected to win on day one" because it was all about "preparing them for WSL football" - something they would experience in just their second season.
Ryan Kent's deflected late winner got Rangers back to winning ways despite a nervy and error-strewn Scottish Premiership display at Ross County. In a stale show from the visitors, they had goalkeeper Allan McGregor to thank for keeping them level. But hosts County could not find a clinical edge to make promising second-half chances count and were punished when Kent found the net late on. The win moves Rangers back to within 13 points of Premiership leaders Celtic.
