There are two sides to mental health. There are the deep, dark depths or, as we talk about, the early steps of going the wrong way. There is also the really positive side, being able to turn a situation on its head, see the positive side of a cup half full. You can look at me from the outside, look at the position I am in and the heights I have been at and think things are not going great but that is not the case.
Recent signing Zlatan Ibrahimovic remained on the bench. Wolves player Patrick Cutrone scored 11 minutes into his loan debut for Fiorentina who defeated Atalanta 2-1. The striker slotted home from 12 yards before Josip Ilicic equalised against his old club in the 67th minute. Three minutes later Fiorentina were down to 10 men when German Pezzella received a second yellow card for diving. However, La Viola secured victory six minutes from time when Pol Lirola fired into the bottom corner.
Central midfield? I don't think that's for me either. I think I could only ever play centre-forward or centre-back. But I'd have liked to have tried to have been a bit of a ball playing centre-half. If I'd have gone down to the Championship, or One or League Two, I'd have liked to have given centre-half a go. I watched Sunderland 'Til I Die the other day. I loved that. It's basically them in the changing room before training, chatting and going out doing all the things I used to do.
Good save, but bigger miss. Mount chance! It's another big chance for Chelsea to double their lead, but that man Long keeps Hull in it. Mount goes through and picks out the bottom corner, but Long makes a vital stop from point blank range. Bowen chance! Almost the equalizer as Bowen receives the ball in midfield and drives forward and fires narrowly over the top.

Interestingly though, Messi reportedly has a clause in his contract where he can walk away from the club at the end of any season. It has been reported that even if he does extend his deal then he would want to keep this clause. The reality is that if Messi did leave then Barcelona's shortcomings over the last few years would be even more glaringly obvious.
Al Taee will host Al Thuqbah for this fixture of the league. Both sides are very average teams in this season. However, I believe, the visitors have better team than their opponent. Al Thuqbah have a more offensive team. They have an effective attack. In last game Al Thuqbah lost 2-0 against strong Al Batin. Nevertheless, the visitors have the potential to pick up the victory in this game. Also, we have Al Taee who's is not very good team in recent times. Hosts are more vulnerable team. They have two consecutive losses. In any case, this will not be an easy task. I think, the visitors will closer to victory.
Arsenal aren’t exactly flying high either, but a new optimism has emerged after the appointment of Mikel Arteta. The former Gunner has spent years training for this moment under the expert eye of Pep Guardiola, and Boxing Day will see him take charge of his first ever Arsenal game.
In this game we have two teams which are winless for a very long time and tomorrow I think draw is not good option for this game and between these two teams,I think derby has much better chances to win despite they are in the road even worser then they are at home. Both teams are struggling in offense and probably who score first goal Will win the game and I hope that is going to be derby and also the Odd on them is pretty higher so it is worth to risk on them more than to risk on Wigan
Quite an unpopular league but due to the fact that Teuta is far, far better than today's rival in mutual meetings in recent years, I simply had to take this great odds on the type that the guest will remain undefeated in this match. Bylis lost 3-1 to the top team in the league in the last round and I think they could have problems with this great defensive team. Bylis sit 8th place and has no win in last 5 games. They drew 12 games in this season. Teuta Durres sit 5th place and won only once in the last 5 games. They drew 10 games in this season. Both teams provided somewhat weaker performance in the last two rounds and conceded goals. This is going to be even.
Then they kicked off, John Barnes passed to Steve McManaman, who dribbled past five players, whistled one just past the post and I thought to myself: 'This could be a long day. That Liverpool team of 1996 went on to reach the final, becoming immortalised as the Spice Boys after walking the Wembley turf in white suits before the game, then losing 1-0 to Eric Cantona's stunning late volley in a poor game against Manchester United.
In contrast, Leeds and Birmingham have already reached deferral agreements with their first-team squads. Others are looking at other ways to reduce costs. West Bromwich Albion chief executive Mark Jenkins has taken a 100% pay cut. Evidently, distrust exists. BBC Sport understands EFL chairman Rick Parry is in receipt of a letter from a club questioning how wage deferrals - existing and in the future - are going to be paid and whether, until salaries are honoured in full, clubs are going to be allowed to make new signings or agree new deals with players whose contracts expire on 30 June.

He came back from a very bad experience at West Brom where his confidence was destroyed," said the Frenchman recently. I tried to rebuild him because I believed in him. Impatient, clinical and on Germany's radar Alexander Nouri coached Gnabry at Werder BremenEven as Gnabry struggled for form and fitness in England, Germany boss Joachim Löw was keeping an eye on a player who had represented his country at youth level.
Roll of honour Let's take a quick (bullet point assisted) trip down memory lane and revisit the winners of the last 10 Ballon d'Ors. Spot the odd one out.

It must be an important game for my managerial career," he said. At first you think it can never happen to you. I know I will speak a lot of times about this game in the future, and hopefully in a way that I can say, 'it was a brutal moment' but it helped us to fight together, show a reaction and stay where we wanted to stay. This is what we are here for - it's not always the sunshine job, it's not always the celebrating with the fans job.
In my mind I wanted to do something for my village. I grew up there and we were not wealthy and it’s a really, really small village and I know the conditions of life are not optimum. It’s a really tough moment, not just for Senegal but for all the world, and I think what is really important is to stick together and try to do the best to fight against this sickness, which is really bad.
United said in a statement carried by multiple British media outlets: "Manchester United Football Club have tonight been made aware of the incident outside the home of one of our employees. We know that the football world will unite behind us as we work with Greater Manchester Police to identify the perpetrators of this unwarranted attack.
German sides Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, have also agreed to take pay cuts. In a statement, Barca skipper Messi said: "Before going any further, we want to make it clear that we were always willing to reduce our salaries because we understand perfectly that we are in an exceptional situation. We, as players, are always here to help the the club when they ask. It does not cease to surprise us that from within the club there were those who tried to put us under the magnifying glass and tried to add pressure to do something that we always knew we would do.
Honda said he hopes to bring about a more successful spell at the club. That is a great opportunity for me and for everyone here," Honda was quoted as saying by globoesport. We can all work to improve together. I want to contribute with my experience. Honda was greeted by thousands of ecstatic fans at the Rio airport on Friday and the 33-year-old said he had never witnessed such a passionate welcome.
One more excellent match for goals from Nicaragua U20 league and new duel who will be played tonight in this interesting league. So, most of teams from this league are very efficient every week and I can say the same and for this two rivals, because Las Sabanas U20 is team who is for example, in last round won at home in league in very good match, 4-1, but also, in round before, they are lost even 0-5. Managua U20 is similar team who is mostly also, playing efficient. I will bet on goals here and follow this match on internet.
Gareth Bale made his first Real Madrid start since 5 October as Zinedine Zidane's side moved top of La Liga with victory at Alaves. Real captain Sergio Ramos opened the scoring with a flicked header 10 minutes into the second half. Lucas Perez equalised from the penalty spot, but Dani Carvajal bundled home from close range to earn Real the win. Barcelona will return to the top of the table if they beat Atletico Madrid on Sunday.
And also that if there’s nobody out there who can improve your team then there’s no point in making a signing just to placate Twitter shouters and early-morning football round-ups. But if they really can’t come up with anyone who can improve what they already have, the Warm-Up would suggest that, at best, they’re suffering from a lack of imagination.
Almost more noticeable was the ugly stuff. A hoofed clearance from the edge of United's six-yard box brought chants of 'Bruno, Bruno' from the Stretford End behind him. Then a thunderous challenge on fellow countryman Joao Moutinho eventually brought a cursory check to see if the Wolves midfielder was OK as he lay on the ground receiving treatment. Another free-kick and the routine shot Patricio almost made a mess of were Fernandes' second-half highlights, although he will not be able to raise the whole underperforming team on his own.

The guests have not actually played a single game this season two in the cup losing 1-0 and 2-0 to Soligorsk and 4 in the league 3 wins and one loss with over 2.5 goals or both teams scoring, they won 2-0 with tough Energetik last round at home and their attack worked really well on the day, their South American creative play-makes scored a goal following a shot from around 25m the second goal of the game and the first goal was also quite well taken.
Charlton will be pushing for another result here, but the Addicks do have away issues this season. They head to Pride Park with only two victories in 11 matches on their travels, while they meet the Rams having failed to beat them in their last eight trips to Derby.
Rapid Wien is currently playing quite well. The home team took 40 points with 3rd place in the table. They won 4 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses in the last 10 appearances. In total, the home team brought 11 wins, 7 draws and 4 losses from the beginning of the season so far. With their current performance, they had to set their sights high on this battle. Home advantage is what they need to promote ..
Those braving the 'Correct Score' market can try a 1-1 draw. Both teams have what it takes to get on the scoresheet, but we shouldn't automatically expect fireworks. After all, Wycombe have scored exactly once in four of their last five at home, while Ipswich have scored just once in three of their last five overall, as well as in two of their last four on the road.
Manchester City were beaten over two legs - including a landmark 1-0 win in the new stadium - and the drama of a last-minute winner from Lucas Moura in the Champions League semi-final at Ajax sent them to the final against Liverpool in Madrid. Spurs lost 2-0 and since then things have never been the same. Not even the palatial surroundings of their new home have helped. The pain of Madrid and the lack of immediate progress marks that balmy night in June as a watershed for Spurs and Pochettino.
In general, I have two obvious, even obvious choices, that I don’t consider any other result at all. I hope by the end of the forecast I can decide. Actually these two options consist of the following components. The first option is a total of more than three exactly. And the second option is a minus handicap for Rukh minus one and a half goals. And one bet does not contradict another. There is only one caveat. How many guests can score and whether at all. The fact that Rukh will score two goals, I have no doubt. This is handicap. But if guests can distinguish themselves at least once, then the handicap hangs and the total plays. Then I will need three goals from Rukh. Here is the third option drew. Total more than exactly two goals per Rukh. I’ll go and see the coefficient for this event.
If I could bring Mbappe [to Real Madrid]. Hazard told Le Parisien. There are many young players that have high potential but, if Kylian continues like this, he'll be one of the best players in history. By 20 years old, I'd already been champion of France with Lille, but in terms of statistics, there's no comparison [between me and Mbappe].
City did lose, but the game itself was arguably one of the most exciting since the restart and the tension and then relief at the final whistle perhaps only enhanced the Liverpool celebrations.

United are now fourth in the table on 18 points, level with Everton and 14 adrift of Chelsea in third. Toffees enjoy sweet Sunday feeling Chloe Kelly fired a clinical hat-trick as Everton moved ahead of Reading into fifth position. Willie Kirk's side had previously gone three games without a win but showed no signs of lacking confidence on Merseyside, as Kelly's 11th, 59th and 65th-minute strikes – the second of those direct from a corner – extinguished the Royals' hopes of extending their lead over their opponents in the table.
Despite thorough warm-ups from both sides, a bitterly cold chill in north London was evidently difficult to get out of the system with both defences rocked in the opening minutes. Kirsty Hanson gave the visitors the lead early on but Laura Vetterlein headed Matt Beard's side level all before five minutes had been played.
Giovani Lo Celso seizes upon it, cuts inside and rolls a neat finish into the bottom corner. MIDDLESBROUGH CHANCE!
