It's safe to say it worked. After their sole defeat at Manchester City in October, Chelsea would drop just 10 points before sealing the championship at Bolton on 30 April 2005. Not everyone was a fan though. You could say that our football was more attractive to watch but they are very efficient," said Arsene Wenger at the turn of 2005. They are a bit like a matador - they wait until the bull gets weak to kill him.
What a fine mess this all is. IN OTHER NEWS Absolutely sensational work here. L’oeuf in the time of corona. RETRO CORNER One of football’s funnier “days of shame” happened 15 years ago today. Towards the end of a 3-0 humbling by Aston Villa, Newcastle team-mates Lee Bowyer and Kieron Dyer turned on one another and had a bit of an on-field scrap.
German football has been suspended for almost a month and the German Football League has said the ban will remain in place for the top divisions at least until April 30. Clubs, however, were given the all clear from their state authorities and the DFL to resume training this week, with champions Bayern Munich deciding to train players in small groups to minimise the risk of infection.
But they are a rarity - PGMOL match officials from a black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) background. The pair are now determined to reach the Premier League and help pave the way for more much-needed diversity among officials at the professional level. I've said it so many times before that if my dad wasn't a referee I wouldn't have thought twice about becoming an official," says Bhups. So how are other people from the same background supposed to even think about wanting to become an official?" Sunny adds: "If we can get out there and be approachable for young referees from a BAME background who want to speak to us and be mentored or even given the right pathway to follow, it is only a good thing.
De Bruyne was only marginally less impressive than his colleague in that spell, but took the match over in the second. His slaloming run into the penalty area set up Jesus, for the strike that sealed the game, and crowned another superb performance from a man who will surely be one of the favourites for the PFA and FWA Player of the Year awards.

It was just what Watford required to build on the home win against Norwich City, ensuring momentum was maintained and increasing the peril for the likes of Bournemouth and Aston Villa with Norwich City now relegated. Manager Nigel Pearson has been involved in great escapes before, as an assistant at West Bromwich Albion and in charge at Leicester City - and this result goes a long way towards helping him preserve that record.
The 35-year-old lifted six major trophies in six years with City before stepping down from his role in February, and during that time he worked with enough of the current England squad to fill an entire starting XI and most of the bench. He named nine English players in his entirely British starting XI on the day City clinched their first league title in 2016 and has a strong relationship with senior Lionesses, including captain Steph Houghton, midfielder Jill Scott and striker Ellen White.

Sebastien Haller, signed for a club record £45m from Eintracht Frankfurt last July, has scored seven times in 30 appearances in all competitions and missed the post-lockdown defeats by Wolves and Tottenham with a hip injury. Two high-profile free signings also disappointed. Samir Nasri started just three Premier League games in his half-season at London Stadium. Jack Wilshere, another former Arsenal midfielder, has played in 14 out of 69 Premier League games since arriving in 2018.
I know they are facing Watford in Nigel Pearson's first official game in charge of the Hornets, but I can only see a Reds win here. I do find it interesting that after all the different foreign coaches that Watford have had, they have turned to Pearson in their time of need. It does seem to be a growing trend for Premier League clubs to go for home managers - including interim Everton boss Duncan Ferguson, currently 11 out of the 20 are from Great Britain or Northern Ireland.
One option is Salomon Rondon, the 30-year-old Venezuelan who has linked up with Rafael Benitez at Dalian Yifang, as the Chinese Super League has been postponed. Paper Round’s view: Rondon can be a sluggish targetman, but he is also often a threatening focal point for sides that play direct. His finishing is acceptable without being remarkable, but having left it to such a late stage, United now need to just get through any striker rather than dither and dawdle and look for the best strikers available - they just need someone to put on a shirt and run.
As the game continued, a television presenter said officials at the VAR offices in Stockley Park, a few miles away from Stamford Bridge in West London, had admitted their error. We have been speaking to Stockley Park who have admitted they got the decision wrong and Lo Celso should have been sent off," Jake Humphrey, who works for BT Sport, said on Twitter.

The Premier League has delayed deciding when each club gets its first winter break until after the Champions League and Europa League draws on 16 December. Half of the 10 games scheduled for 8 February will be put back a week to give all 20 sides a weekend off. The split and which games will be on TV was due to be confirmed by 13 December. But the Premier League has pushed that deadline back to no later than 20 December to take into account when and where clubs are playing in Europe.

Additionally, consideration will be given to how the laws can continue to improve player behaviour and increase respect on the field of play, a topic which is regularly raised by the football public. VAR, in particular, has received widespread criticism from fans and pundits alike, especially in the English Premier League where the technology is being used for the first time this term.
Home advantage has hardly made a difference for West Ham this season. Miserably, the hosts have been at the losing end in seven of their past twelve games here. Worse yet, they have come away with the win just twice so far.
That’s because every one of Liverpool’s home games this season has seen at least three goals scored, and they’re actually yet to keep a clean sheet at Anfield. Watford haven’t exactly been the most prolific going forward, but their catastrophic defence has seen them concede an average of 2.13 goals per away game this season. For this reason, backing a Liverpool Win and Over 2.5 Goals looks a very solid option to kickstart the weekend.
League leader Porto completely screwed up the restart of the season at the weekend and lost at Famalicao 1-2. Team Benfica owes that the lead in the standings is not gone as they also failed, but are now tied with 60 points. Martimo coming from Setubal with a point and is therefore still in the table with 15 points. I am sure that Porto will show a different face here than at the restart and expect a clear victory, which will take shape at the break. Porto is currently 2nd in the ranking, I see them win after losing to famalicao, I see them now conceding no goal because Maritimo has not scored in his last 4 away games ...
Wolves' Europa League game against Olympiakos in Greece on Thursday was played behind closed doorsWhat happens about player contracts if the season is not finished by 30 June - as well as other extra fees such as for appearances and goals?Stone: "This is a complex area. Obviously players whose contracts run beyond the end of this season will get bonuses based on the current campaign, whenever it finishes.
The Reds rattled the net exactly twice in three of their last five home games, though Napoli's defence statistics are much more salient to prediction. Ancelotti's charges conceded more than once in only three of their last fifteen matches, and the Italians shipped just 0.75 goals on average per Champions League fixture since August.
Mallorca's general policy at Son Moix has been to keep things tight and hit opponents on the break, and we expect more of the same here against a Betis side that hold the joint worst defensive record in La Liga with 24 goals conceded across their 14 games.
Winning is not boring - losing and drawing is boring. Biggest regret?"When I was 17 I went to America to study at university because I got told I wasn't good enough to go to this England programme. I only stayed the one year. They said if I stay, I won't get picked for England for the next couple of years - it's too far. So I came back to England and then I had a run of injuries and thought I should have just stayed in America.

He said the FA and Premier League both favoured the permanent substitution model and are keen to be part of any future trials. The first step looks likely to be made at this summer's Olympics, in both the men's and women's competitions. Irish Football Association chief executive Patrick Nelson, who chaired the meeting, said: "We agreed it would be a sensible move to draw up some protocols for trials.
You do not do that by not talking to them. You do not get the end-product or working together if you just send a letter out without actually taking their advice or thoughts. Coronavirus and sport: live updatesHow Premier League players set up NHS initiativeCoronavirus impact on sport - timelineBevan said he had now asked the EFL to discuss the restarting of the season with the managers from each league.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored two penalties as Juventus survived a scare to move eight points clear at the top of Serie A with a draw against Atalanta. The visitors, who controlled long periods of the game, twice went ahead in Turin, via Duvan Zapata and Ruslan Malinovskiy. However, Ronaldo took his tally to 28 goals in 28 league games with his second penalty in the 90th minute. Second-placed Lazio had earlier fallen to a shock 2-1 home defeat by Sassuolo.
Newcastle hadn't played well, creating little and lacking rhythm in their play, but they stunned Palace just when the visitors looked to be on top. After a first half void of any drama or excitement, the visitors looked the more threatening after the restart and Christian Benteke forced a great save from Martin Dubravka while Patrick van Aanholt almost scored directly from a corner.
After Grabban's 17th league goal of the season, the visitors almost grabbed a stoppage-time winner but Adama Diakhaby's shot from the edge of the box was blocked away to safety by Ryan Shotton. A play-off spot now looks most likely for Sabri Lamouchi's team, who have a six-point advantage over seventh-placed Bristol City but are eight points behind second-placed Leeds with 10 games remaining.
Heidenheim have scored in 86% of their away trips this season, while they are looking to add to a fine run on the road. The visitors have seen both teams score in all but one of their away trips, with both meetings between these two last term seeing both teams hit the back of the net. Hamburg have seen 60% of their games finish with both teams scoring, following a run of eight straight games which have all seen both teams find the net. As a result, our correct score prediction is a 2-1 home win.

Latest figures show that 246 people have died with coronavirus in Liverpool's NHS hospitals. Madrid, meanwhile, is one of Europe's worst affected cities.

Premier League clubs including Liverpool and Man Utd amend season ticket plansSpeaking at Monday's news briefing, UK chancellor Rishi Sunak rejected claims the government was too slow to cancel large sporting events in the days before the coronavirus lockdown was enforced.

The latest match of the FA Cup fourth round was the Vitality match between Bournemouth and Arsenal. With better squad quality, the Gunners are expected to have more chances to win tickets. Bournemouth's form is not going well, they have lost 3 of the last 5 matches. The home field also does not give them favorable results, as they only won 2/5 wins when they recently welcomed rivals. In the opposite direction, Arsenal are unbeaten in the last 5 games under the guidance of Coach Arteta. Winning a point on Chelsea's pitch in the middle of the week will be a big boost for the Gunners. Away from home Arsenal are unbeaten, but they are 5 draws.

EFLAs the EFL explained in its statement, the disciplinary cases around Sheffield Wednesday and Derby are being dealt with by an independent panel. Insiders accept the unsatisfactory nature of the situation but it is being stressed the cases must be heard "expeditiously and fairly". Without knowing when the verdicts will be released, it is impossible to know what the speed and status of any appeals will be.
Where will games be held?The Premier League clubs hope it will be at their own stadiums. The initial pushback against an apparent government desire for matches to be played at eight to 10 neutral grounds was from the six clubs at the bottom of the table as the concept affected the 'sporting integrity' of the league. Now, faced with a £340m repayment to TV broadcasters even if matches go ahead, other problems have come to light that affect more clubs.
With football in England suspended since March 13 due to the pandemic, Hodgson said teams might have to accept increased safety restrictions and having to play more games in a shorter period when play resumed.
