But the bottom line is that Van Dijk has played in every single league game and I don't think they would have won the title without him. With 33 goals conceded in 38 games, Liverpool had the best defensive record in the Premier League this seasonHis presence gives confidence to everyone who plays around him - he has played with four difference centre-backs this season and it hasn't mattered, because of how good he is.

Moreover, some of their recent efforts against teams in and around the top six, particularly in the final third, bode well. Wimbledon have scored five goals in six of their last seven.
Bale 'unworthy of Madrid' - Spanish pressMourinho 'won repeat past mistakes' at SpursWales. Golf. Madrid. In that order"If he knew, it's clear that this was something childish but maybe he didn't. Maybe he was involved in the celebrations with other team-mates and he did that unwittingly, not trying to offend anyone or disrespect anyone. The problem is that picture has added fuel to the fire. You have to bear in mind that for fans it's a bit weird.
Standard Liege is playing good football as we have seen earlier this week when they travelled to face Vitória de Guimarães on a game they played very well. Cercle Brugge are going to get relegated. After a promising season last year where I thought they could actually become a good team in Belgium I got very disappointed this season. They are by far very far the worst and playing against one of the best it is going to be a long day for them.
I assumed that would be the case with Theo and he showed glimpses of what he could do. He was electric in training with loads of pace but obviously still very raw. He will have a lot of footage of it because every time I saw him he had a handheld camera, walking around Baden-Baden taking in the sights. He took a lot of photos and he seemed to be enjoying it. We all tried to look after him as best we could and there was a big spotlight on him.
Cavani has dubbed a move to Atletico as a "dream", so why would he want to be a short-term panic buy for United or provide back-up to Tammy Abraham at Stamford Bridge? Cavani seems a perfect fit for a Diego Simeone side and he could really flourish in the Spanish capital. He might turn 33 years old this month, but he could easily enjoy a successful spell in Spain where he will feel wanted.

Nes has to for the win here, and to seek for the first rival not to win three points against group top team in the final round of this season.

Manchester City's final position may not matter very much following their two-year European ban - not to mention the enormous gap between them and leaders Liverpool - but with third-placed Leicester breathing down their necks, there's more than just pride to play for.

Can they hold their nerve in the coming months and see it through?

Eighteen of the 19 players named in Jurgen Klopp's two Premier League matchday squads over the past week will travel to Qatar.

That victory at Villa Park also ended a run of five winless games away from home, but the fact is that it will be very difficult for them to build on that at Stamford Bridge.

Equally, when Tottenham got their second, Mourinho first yelled at the group of players to his left who were celebrating - then, when he got no response, to Toby Alderweireld 40 yards away to his right, to deliver an instruction. I want to do my things and I have started doing my things," he said afterwards with a glint in his eye. I hope that you [the media] don't understand it very well and you don't speak about it a lot.
They are 14th in the Premier League and look for points against third placed Manchester City. Newcastle are only five points above the relegation zone but four behind fifth place in the table. A couple of wins or losses can change positions a great deal in the Premier League this season. The home side had beaten West Ham United and Bournemouth before the loss to Aston Villa on Monday.
Leicester, second in the table, lost 2-1 to Liverpool at Anfield in October when James Milner scored a stoppage time penalty and Rodgers said he hoped the home crowd would spur them on against a side that are still unbeaten in the league. It's another difficult game for us, they're one of the most consistent teams at this level for a long period of time but we're at home and we want to bring our true game," former Liverpool manager Rodgers told reporters.
We had seven club captains and quite a few players in their late twenties and some in their early thirties, so this team is in a different moment in their journey, both individually and collectively. The tournament next summer is not about me and redemption. On a personal level, the World Cup in Russia was, I guess, my own catharsis of getting out of a penalty shoot-out. That was something that was nice to do, but the team is about the player and the team is about our fans and it's more important that we make them proud.
They were unfortunate to lose that clash 2-1, and after a shock loss to Watford on New Year’s Day they have now lost three of their last five top flight outings. However, they have an opportunity to get back to winning ways on Saturday.
It will not be built in a matter of months; this is a very early work in progress. But while this is also a managerial career in its infancy, there is at least a hint of an identity about this Arsenal team that his predecessor Unai Emery failed to establish. Arteta has a maturing group of young players that hints at a bright future, talents such as Martinelli, Saka, Willock and Guendouzi. The manager clearly has his sights set on running deep into the FA Cup and this was a well-merited victory.
I couldn't start the year any better. Chelsea boss Frank Lampard described the strike as a 'wonder goal' but bemoaned his side not putting the game beyond reach in the first half. The game was there to be won. We weren't ruthless enough. We just didn't kill the game off," Lampard said. In the end. The tactics matched up for both teams but they were better than us.

Burnley are unbeaten in their last four matches heading to this clash, drawing two and winning as many, while they have three clean sheets in the four matches, but they have also failed to score in two of the four. They have three wins in five home matches heading to this clash and will be hoping to hold on to a scoring run that has seen them failed to score in just one of the five.
Another match at the Italian cup where I don't expect to see many goals. The first match Napoli won 1-0 so the pressure and the burden it's going to be on Inter side.It's been a long time since both teams had their last matches and only had like few trainings so I don't expect them to force too much. Inter is going to attack more because they have to because of the results but I expect Napoli to defend themselves very well and to try their chances from some counter-attack or something. Most certainly I don't expect too many goals and chances here.

Martin Semmens says the return of the top flight - currently suspended until at least 30 April - would be "a sign that the country is coming back to normal" but it should not happen before it is safe.

In truth, the real pressure at that time, for that transfer, was the start of pre-season, flying off to the Far East and the knock-on effects of not being able to unveil a superstar signing for the year as you land and what that would mean for exposure and sales. That impact was a factor for them," Traub said. We don't love being asked to make sense of transactions within a short timeline, particularly for those amounts, but for very good clubs that we know intimately and understand their credit strengths, if it makes sense we can move quickly.
