TUESDAY'S BIG STORIES Why Arteta now? And why Ancelotti at all? Congratulations, Arsenal, for finally finding a way to unsettle Manchester City. But why wait until the evening after your match against them? If you’re going to court Pep Guardiola’s assistant, the night before the game seemed the perfectly opportunity.
The second pot will contain the group runners-up plus four more teams dropping down from the Champions League. No team can face another club from the same country or a team that they played during the group stage. So Manchester United could not face Arsenal, Wolves or AZ Alkmaar but could play Rangers in an all-British affair. The seeded clubs will play away from home first, ensuring they have home advantage in the second leg.
Rangers began their Scottish Cup campaign with a routine victory over Stranraer at Ibrox to ease into the fifth round. Scottish League One's bottom club held out until Scott Arfield poked home on the cusp of half-time. Jermain Defoe doubled the lead from the spot as Rangers, showing seven changes from their Old Firm derby triumph, made a winning return from the winter break. Steven Gerrard's side are the first club into Sunday's last-16 draw.
Currently, they are having all sorts of problems, as they can’t manage to win a game. Their last win came all the way back in September where they have demolished Sroda with 0:6 on the side. Igor Angulo is their best player this season, as he has 4 goals scored paired with one dished assist. Their attack is a slow one with only 14 goals netted so far while their defense has allowed 19 to go through their backfield. They are a healthy team with all of their players ready to play.
A very poor recent home record hasn’t helped the situation either. They have lost four of their last five Premier League matches at Turf Moor, and they have lost all five of their home games against teams in the top half of the division this season.
Fulham boss Scott Parker told BBC Radio London:"It's a tough place to come, we knew the challenge ahead of us today was a big one and it was a perfect away performance. I thought we grew into the game, we had our moments in the first half without putting our mark or control on it. In the second half] I felt we needed a bit more control in the way we played. We turned the game into what the occasion was and Blackburn make you do that.
They have 12 wins, one loss and a draw in their last 14 FA Cup matches at home. They have six clean sheets in the last seven FA Cup matches at home and have failed to score in just one of their last 47 home matches in the FA Cup. Chelsea have five straight wins over Nottingham Forest, dating back to 1997.
Tomorrow I go back as a coach of the team that is going to try and beat Manchester United and that maybe gives a different perspective," the Portuguese said on Tuesday. Going back to Old Trafford is to go back to a place where I was happy. I can say that. I have a great relation with the Manchester United supporters.

Manchester United need to get a win from this game after losing on Sunday.

Zero: Jürgen Klopp Have to have some sympathy, of course. He’s just been mugged in front of all his friends by a Tom Waits lookalike.

Son does a quick step over to fool Diop and make room for the shot, which he blasts through Roberto and into the corner. The keeper should have saved that. GOAL! West Ham United 0 Tottenham Hotspur 2 (Lucas Moura 43) This is a beauty from Tottenham, and brilliant from Alli. A ball to him on the left wing was just behind his reach but Alli, after falling over to retrieve it, brilliantly hooks the ball down the field to release Son into space.

I've known Dean since he was nine years old," Heard told BBC Sport. He was in the crowd at the town hall, I dragged him on to the bus and he came back with the team to Villa Park. Aston Villa fans at the 1982 European Cup final in RotterdamSmith attended Dartmouth High School in Great Barr - now rebranded and rebuilt as the Q3 Academy.

At 11pm in Shanghai, my agent called me [to say] that United want to do the deal, so I woke up that night and started looking for a translator to go to the directors' room and hit his door and all that. My agent wants to speak to you, United are coming for me, you have to make this happen and all that you know.
Lerma's early mistake summed them up - his poor first touch invited pressure from Longstaff, who won possession back for Newcastle. From that point on, Bournemouth looked shaky, short of confidence and reluctant to play out from the back. They were punished by Gayle, who showed composure in front of goal for the opener, while Saint-Maximin continued to torment the Bournemouth defence for the impressive hour he was on the pitch.

Galatasaray is having a changeable form this season with a 13:9 goal ratio, but they have started to play better with 2 wins after the shocking loss in the tenth round against Rizespor. They are trying to catch up with the leaders on top, as they have 2 points less than first-placed Sivasspor. Galatasaray’s attack will have to improve as they are averaging just over one goal per game, which isn’t enough if we look at their tradition and previous seasons.
Although two teams had some over scoring matches in the season, there should not be a high result in this one. There is big stake for both sides, since they did not start this season good. Dinamo may be in somewhat favorite position, since Brest is going up and down through the time, but also have Cup final to play in front of them.
This has been mirrored in the response of Hammers fans, despite his success in stabilising the club in his previous spell by guiding them from the relegation places to 13th at the end of the season, winning eight out of 27 league games. It was not enough for West Ham's hierarchy to offer him a long-term deal then, although they have rectified that now. Where he has a problem, with image and credibility, is that miserable record stretching back six years.

The 1974 World Cup - what do you think of? West Germany, total football, Johan Cruyff, Franz Beckenbauer? No? Perhaps just one team remaining unbeaten during the tournament, only to be knocked out in the first round having conceded just a single goal?Scotland were the only team from the British Isles to make it. What's more, it was the first time they had qualified since 1958. The official World Cup song was called Easy, Easy - but it wasn't conceit or hubris that was their downfall, it was goal difference.

Peterborough is in very bad shape and they are winless for 6 games in all competitions but if they want to stay close to the playoff zone they must win games like this because Wimbledon is also in very bad shape and now Wimbledon is in the edge of relegation zone, the odd on posh is this high because thy did not won on the road for 6 or 7 games in a row but still they are far better squad and I believe in them so I take this bet but of course I cannot recommend it for today
