In his first six games, Roberto not only failed to keep a clean sheet, he twice conceded two goals and conceded three in each of his final three games. In his final appearance of that run, against Tottenham, he was ridiculed, loudly, by his own supporters. It was impossible not to feel sorry for Roberto. But it underlined a lack of faith in him that extended far beyond the stands at London Stadium to senior officials at the club.
United target Eriksen move The Mirror reports that Manchester United are interested in Tottenham Hotspur playmaker Christian Eriksen.

Fans of Exeter City have seen it all before as for the last few seasons they have been in and around the promotion picture but have not quite had enough to get over the line. The Grecians are once again challenging towards the top of the division this season and they know that if they are to go one step further this time around, then a strong record on home soil is essential to their chances.
Gattuso in line to replace Ancelotti Carlo Ancelotti was only sacked last night, but it seems Napoli have their replacement already lined up. The former AC Milan boss is reportedly set to sign a six-month contract with the Serie A club, who have the option to extend the 41-year-old's contract for a further year.
The CAS ruling also saw the club’s fine reduced from 600,000 to 300,000 Swiss francs (£230,000). While Lampard has used youngsters such as Mason Mount and Tammy Abraham to supplement areas of his squad in need of reinforcement, the Blues have been heavily linked with the likes of Jadon Sancho and Ben Chilwell in January.
Despite suffering just their second league loss of the campaign, clinching the title with seven games to go is the earliest any team in English top-flight history has managed to achieve the feat. Having thrashed Crystal Palace at Anfield on 24 June and become champions the following day, Liverpool may point to a week of celebrations for their off-day in Manchester. The Merseysiders started sharply, pressing and harrying their opponents and even striking the post through Salah on 20 minutes, but capitulated once the first goal went in and never managed to recover.
Culture secretary Oliver Dowden said the takeover was a matter for the Premier League, so a government intervention is unlikely. Replying to Fair/Square's letter, Masters said he could not comment on the ongoing process of the prospective takeover, but added: "I can assure you that these processes go beyond those required by UK company law and they are applied with equal rigour to every prospective purchase of a Premier League club.
Pep Guardiola has finished top in his Champions League group in 10 of his 11 seasons as a manager in the competition. Raheem Sterling has scored 19 goals in 46 appearances in the Champions League and could become the sixth Englishman to reach 20 goals in the competition after Wayne Rooney (30), Paul Scholes (24), Frank Lampard (23), Steven Gerrard (21) and Harry Kane (20).
I said before the home game, how impressed I am (with Leicester)," Guardiola said. They have incredible organisation, good scouting, they know what they have to do. It's nice to see teams play like this. It's good for English football to have managers like this," adding that Leicester striker Jamie Vardy -- who has 17 league goals this season -- was "one of the best" he had ever seen.
Arteta is also keen to sign Rodriguez this month, and with Arsenal short on funds, they would be looking to secure a loan deal.

Chinandega u20 host Real Esteli u20. Chinandega 20 have won 14 points in 15 matches, ranked 9th place in the league. On the other side, the guests Real Esteli u20 have won 28 points in 15 matches ranked 2nd place in the league. As you can see, there is huge difference in terms of quality between these two teams.
The one bright spot for Johnson was the return of on-loan Stoke City striker Benik Afobe, who started for the first time since August following a serious knee injury. The 27-year-old former Wolves forward lasted 63 minutes on his return and showed some nice touches, but at times also cut a frustrated figure having been asked to play out wide.
Those looking to bag the 'Correct Score' can try a 1-0 win for The Gills. It ended 0-0 after 90 minutes at this venue a fortnight ago, but Gillingham certainly wouldn't have been undeserving of a 1-0 win, which has been the score-line in each of Sunderland's last two away matches in League 1.
The Uefa route didn't happen a while ago," the Parishes of Jersey manager James Scott told BBC Radio Jersey. Has much happened since then regarding the Uefa offer of maybe getting some fixtures for the Jersey FA when they were unsuccessful with their application? Honestly, no. So Conifa offers something completely different. The reality is, we haven't got into Uefa, so what is the Plan B? If this World Cup goes to plan, potentially this could be the route going forward.
The 20-year-old, who joined the club from New York Red Bulls in January, has been suffering from a nagging groin injury. Being back again after so long out with injury was indescribable," said Adams.

It's not been a great week for Inter but this game at Fiorentina offers them a good chance to get back in winning ways. They are top of the table and have a 100% away league record with plenty of goals being scored. Fiorentina are in poor form with four straight league defeats and are only five points above the relegation zone. A form guide for the last five league games has them bottom and with 12 points less than their opponents. Go for an away win here.
We will start, I hope, at the beginning of the month (May) with tests to ensure that players are negative and the training can follow. Will we play through the summer? We don't have a deadline but the idea is to finish the championships. Several clubs have opposed the idea of carrying on with the championship including Brescia, who have threatened not to take the field.
The only game that they didn't win was a home draw against Galatasaray, a respectable result against one of Turkey's traditional powerhouses. Konyaspor's June could have gone better. They were winless in three games, but, silver lining outlook, they only lost one of those outings. Their first game of July was a win over fellow strugglers Rizespor, who are a point and a place behind them in the table.
That triggered a Wales fan to create the flag which Bale and his team-mates were pictured alongside as they celebrated sealing their place at Euro 2020. Bale played in the crucial wins over Azerbaijan and Hungary despite not featuring for his club since the October international break because of injury, prompting further questions over his commitment to Real's cause. Bale said the timing of his return to action was a coincidence - but admitted prior to the Azerbaijan game he felt "more excitement" playing for Wales than he does when on club duty.
That time is now. It's not in five years, six years, it's right now. Let's make change, now. Parris is one of the 15 players who make up Team Visa's star-studded squad, an idea previously used by the company with Olympians but reinvented to become the first of its kind in women's football. Visa's European Head of Marketing Adrian Farina said: "This is not a short-term thing.
You can train hard at home but that's nothing compared to the rhythm at the highest level," Pedro told Chelsea's official website. A lot of clubs have now been apart for many days, so it's going to be difficult to get match fit. I imagine there would have to be a short pre-season and then we'd probably quickly get on to the remaining games to try to complete the season, but only if possible as there is a lot of talk that some leagues might be able to finish and others won't.
Bellingham was seven the last time Birmingham were in the Premier League in 2011. I've loved the club ever since I joined. I can't wait to make more memories," he said earlier this season. What should Bellingham do if one of Europe's biggest clubs come in for him this summer?"Whatever he feels is right for him," advises Carter. As Blues fans, we'd all love him to be at the club for many years - but we all know how the game works.

Smorgon is going to face Lida. The hosts won only one match in this season and draw twice. Smorgon scored three goals and conceded only one. This team is strong but they didn't play against a team like Lida. Lida is one of the strongest team but they failed to start this season well. They lost the first match of the new season but after that, they draw and win the previous match 3:0 against Slonim. I think that Linda is going to win this match. They look good and I hope that they will not fail to win again in this season

Joshua Zirkzee came off the bench to score a late goal for the second game in a row - the Dutch teenager has scored two Bundesliga goals in a total of eight minutes.
Jalapa will host Diriangen for this fixture of the league. I believe, the visitors are small favorites in this game. Diriangen is one of the ambitious teams in this season. They are currently on the 2nd place with 30 points. Of course, they will try to make a positive result. Also, Diriangen have better results in the last mutual matches. Also, we have Jalapa who's is very average team in this season. They are currently on the 5th place with 22 points. Yeah, the hosts have a little chance. Maybe this is - draw. In any case, the visitors are stronger team.

The system was not built for families like mine to succeed, regardless of how hard my mum worked.
