A wasted talent? Troubled genius? Greatest England player of his - and many other - generations? The reason you got into football? All of the above?Few footballers of the past 30 years have captured the imagination quite like Paul Gascoigne. From Mars-bar loving maverick at Newcastle to Roman playboy via World Cup brilliance, Gazza really had it all. And did most of it. Could he have been managed better? Should he have done more with his career? Was he the best player England has produced since, well, you name a date?All valid questions and just some that will be debated during Gazza Day on BBC Sport on Saturday, which coincides with the start of our Euros Rewind programming throughout June, kicking off with a full rerun of England's game against Scotland at Euro 96.
Ferrier was withdrawn midway through the second half against Watford on Thursday, and his replacement Mullin was himself taken off before the end of extra-time. Mullin returned to training on Friday while Mellon said Ferrier, who is managing an issue behind his knee, should be fine to play. Midfielder Ollie Banks' quad injury is likely to keep him out of action for another couple of weeks. Manchester United will have defender Victor Lindelof available.
Artist Simone Fugazzotto – known for this “disruptive works” as stated by legaseriea. The league’s website added that the paintings will be exhibited permanently in Serie A’s Assembly Hall, “to highlight the commitment of the football world against all forms of discrimination. Sport, first and foremost football, is an extraordinary tool for conveying positive messages, fair play and tolerance.
I often think about which footballers would I like to go out for a drink with, and there are very few who I think I would get on with. But with Crouch, within a minute you are on the same level and he is as interested in you as you are in him. I know he has got his podcast so everyone knows he has got all these stories, but they are incredible. You are chatting to him and you discover so much. This week I found out he was almost a professional level tennis player, and then it turned out he also held his county record for the high jump.

Caretaker manager Duncan Ferguson says he does not know who will be the next Everton boss amid rising speculation that Carlo Ancelotti will take over. Ferguson has been in charge since Marco Silva was sacked on 6 December, and has beaten Chelsea and drawn with Manchester United in the league. I don't know who the new manager will be, but [Ancelotti] is incredible and he's won everything," said Ferguson.
Frank Lampard's side needed a point from the potentially nervy encounter at Stamford Bridge in order to clinch a top-four place - but they claimed all three in style. Mason Mount's delightful 25-yard curling free-kick and Olivier Giroud's effort from close range were just 144 seconds apart just before half-time and they settled the contest. The defeat means Nuno Espirito Santo's men finish seventh behind Tottenham on goal difference after Jose Mourinho's side drew 1-1 at Crystal Palace.
This will be the second game which will be played between these two teams under a month. Both teams are from Sweden but form very different division. The host are from the Allsvenskan which is the top division in this league while the guest are from the superettan the second division. Kalmar won the last meeting between these two sides at the start of the month 5-0 when they met at the Svenska cup. Guest are coming from a defeat in their last game to hacken by 6-1. I think there will be goals in this game and so I fancy over 2.5
Arsenal to target Nuno? Good morning and welcome to rolling coverage of today's football news.

He had spells at Sydney FC and Newcastle Jets before moving to Chinese side Shanghai Shenhua in 2009.

City boss Guardiola had said on Friday that he was "fully confident about what the club has done". What next?Uefa could appeal against the decision in the Swiss federal courts. It is unlikely that any such appeal would be heard before the 2020-21 Champions League starts. The Premier League could have looked to take action as well if the ban had been upheld because their own FFP rules are similar - but not exactly the same - as Uefa's.
Meanwhile in Spain, Sevilla beat basement club Leganes 1-0 at home in an enthralling encounter on Sunday to climb up to second in La Liga. The win lifted them to 30 points after 15 games, one behind leaders Real Madrid, who have a game in hand, although Barcelona, on 28 points, will climb back above both sides if they beat Atletico Madrid later on Sunday.
A long 30-year wait looks all-set to come to an end in L4. MAN OF THE MATCH Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool). The young full back continues to earn rave reviews for his eye-catching displays on the right flank. Conjured up another flurry of assists and capped a fabulous night with a sizzling drive.
Today, in the 1 Liga will be played the top match in Czech Republic Slavia Prague vs Viktoria Plzen. At the moment, in the ranking of 1 Liga, Slavia Prague is number 1 with 67 points, and his opponent, the Viktoria Plzen is number 2 with 59 points. I think that Viktoria Plzen play good in the home and away matches , they are top team, but Slavia Prague is the best in the 1 Liga, and because in the last 5 meetings with Plzen, Slavia has 4 wins, in this match I bet on Slavia Prague' s win. Good day.
Dartford and Eastbourne will face each other in the upcoming match in the National League South. Dartford this season have the following results: 13W, 7D and 10L. Meanwhile Eastbourne have 7W, 13D and 10L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Gomel will against Naftan in match Belarusia Pershaya League. My prediction this match could be the end score is over 2.5 goals due to Gomel on last 3 match in club friendlies can make total score is 13 goals. Meanwhile, Naftan on last 3 match in club friendlies can make total score is 11 goals. Surely the both team very productive to make score. Therefore, my prediction this match can be the end score is over 2.5 goals. Moreover Gomel is newcomer from this competition due to Gomel has just down from competition premier league and surely Gomel will better to make score rather than Nafta.

The former Liverpool chief executive admitted the EFL needed a "proper reset post-Covid", with clubs currently "stacking up creditors". Parry said it was "difficult to answer" how many might go out of business. He was giving evidence to the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport committee about the impact of coronavirus.

Ramos and Bale were left out of coach Zinedine Zidane's 19-man squad for the game despite completing training on Friday. Eden Hazard is still out with an ankle injury he sustained in November. French forward Benzema, responsible for 12 of Real's 36 league goals this campaign, is expected to be back in action after missing the team's triumphant Spanish Super Cup campaign in Saudi Arabia with a muscle problem.
Three of the last five Watford league games have been drawn. Watford registered just their first in of the season before the international break and they will be looking to make it two when they host Burnley. The win lifted Watford to 18th place on the standings with eight points while Burnley have 15 points and are 10th.
It's fair to say that Club America are a better team at home. During the current campaign they've only lost one out of nine at Estadio Azteca, where they've scored no less than 19 goals. Defensively, as they've kept only two clean sheets, Club America aren't overly strong, as we saw in the first leg, but their attacking credentials cannot be questioned. Only one team in the entire division has notched more home goals than the hosts of this fixture.

Domzale were one of the league favorites, and the third team behind Olimpija and Maribor for long period of time. However, team experienced financial issues in this season, and now are fighting to avoid relegation from the league. They are again second bottom team, after Triglav made victory in the Velenje against Rudar.
The nearest United came to scoring was in the final minute of stoppage time when substitute Diogo Dalot headed Aaron Wan-Bissaka's cross narrowly wide, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men have now taken just four points from five games. Wolves worked hard but, despite introducing their debutant, Daniel Podence, near the end, also lacked a killer touch in front of goal. Nuno Espirito Santo's men have now won once in six games since their memorable comeback triumph against Manchester City on 27 December and, with 13 games of the campaign remaining, are, like United, six points off a Champions League place and behind Sheffield United.
With Leicester having the best shot conversion rate in the division and the second-highest goal tally, they are a serious threat to one of the division’s worst defences. The Foxes have hit 22 goals across their last seven games, while Watford are letting in over 2 goals per game on average. With 71% of Leicester’s home games seeing at least three goals, a home win and over 2.5 is our tip here.
We're also backing a 2-1 win for Aberdeen, as it won't be an easy affair for the visitors. We believe Hearts will put up a good fight that will see them score at least once like they've done so in three of their last six games at Tynecastle- as well as the fact the Dons have conceded at least one time in their last four away matches.
Real Esteli will want to clinch that play-off semi-final spot. To do so, they will most likely need to win this game at Jalapa with Dirangen likely to beat Real Madriz at home. They aren't in the best of form but have just one loss in their last four away league games. The home side are already in the play-off quarter finals so may rest some players ahead of those games. They suffered a heavy loss in their most recent game and with more to play for, the tip is for an away win.

It was Villa who saw the last Premier League action in a 4-0 loss at Leicester City on 9 March before the top flight was closed down after Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta tested positive for coronavirus. We have become accustomed to glimpses of the new reality in the Bundesliga and La Liga, complete with socially-distanced goal celebrations but still with the same passions on the pitch and among supporters watching from afar.
I knew a lot about him and his attitude to the game through Hodgkinson. We had some great phone calls. If we were playing up north and wanted to train at Carrington it was no problem. I speak to many managers in the game who he has helped out. On the advice he's received from Ferguson, Wilder added: "There's a football aspect that you wouldn't believe. It's not technical or tactical, it's not really a mentality thing - it's another part of the game and every time I say it, people will say where did you get that from?"If it's good enough for him it's certainly going to be good enough for me and my players.
Like the world around it, football was severely damaged by the war. Many of those who left the professional game to fight never came back and many of those who did were scarred by the experience. But the need for the game, for sport in general, was also reaffirmed by the experience of the global conflict. Football would return for the 1919-20 season, as would the crowds, seeking something to cheer and a return to a sense of normality.
Our ambition has always been to operate the best women’s football club in the world," said Bill Predmore said in a written statement.

Alexis Sanchez will return from a loan spell in Italy and make a success of his Manchester United career, says the club's manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Chile forward Sanchez, 31, is set to return to United in the summer after a season with Inter Milan. He left Old Trafford having scored five times in 45 games following a move from Arsenal in January 2018. Alexis will come back in the summer and prove you all wrong," said Solskjaer.
Interview of the year - Marta's inspirational speech "Cry in the beginning so you can smile in the end. It was an emotional Women's World Cup in more ways than one for Brazil legend Marta.

The league is one of the few trophies the former River midfielder has yet to win in a victorious career as coach. To add a further layer of intrigue to the occasion, Boca's dramatic win came against a side coached by Diego Maradona, the Boca fan and former player who has publicly fought with another Boca idol and now the club's vice-president, Juan Roman Riquelme.
England and Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford says helping children is "very important" during the coronavirus pandemic and is working to get free food for those not in school. The 22-year-old has been working with charity FareShare to help children in Manchester after schools were closed. Speaking to BBC Breakfast, Rashford said the work was "top of my to-do list" and spoke about his childhood.
Here he is scoring arguably the best sounding goal of all time: get a load of that double-ping as it hits both posts. HAT TIP "Gomez smiles. I just enjoy sharing experiences with Aji and my friends,” the Liverpool and England defender says. For example, it’s nice coming home after Barcelona (in the Champions League semi-final last season), a big experience like that, and thinking, ‘We lived that together’.
Crouch: I remember one particular scenario when I have gone to Portsmouth. I thought 'I'm not going through this again where I sign for a new club and don't score for so many games'. Jermain Defoe went round two, chipped the goalkeeper, hit the crossbar and it bounced down. I headed it in, it was close whether it was already over the line, but I ran to the fans so everyone knew it was my goal. Jermain was celebrating the goal as well.

The Warm-Up needs to be honest with you all for a moment. It didn’t watch the football last night. Any of it. This is a football column and, admittedly, this could be a problem. But sometimes it’s hard to focus on sport, even one as glorious as football. When you are literally having WhatsApp conversations with ageing relatives designed to try and improve their chances of avoiding a premature death; when the Prime Minister is telling the nation that, “many more families are going to lose loved ones before their time”; when you are keeping a mental note of how many packs of pasta you have left in your cupboard because the local supermarkets have totally sold out; when Iran is alleged to be digging mass graves to house coronavirus victims; the fact that Odion Ighalo has just scored for Manchester United becomes background noise.

With Damien Duff, the reports coming out of Celtic this season have been absolutely outstanding," Kenny said. The postponement of the European Championship play-offs until the autumn - with Euro 2020 now moved to next year - forced the FAI's hand in having to replace McCarthy. When McCarthy was appointed in November 2018, it was announced that Kenny would succeed him at the end of the Euro 2020 campaign but the coronavirus crisis means that the 2022 World Cup qualifying campaign is set to start next March in advance of the European finals.
Of course in this match it is clear which team is enormous favorite for the win and the only question is how many goals ajax Will score and I think the answer on that is at least 4 because Sparta is very good opponent for them and in head to head matches they scored 4 or more goals a lot of times in last couple of years and 4 goals could be enough for them to win with 4 goals difference but I even expect from ajax to score 5 goals and to secure this handicap which I surely recommend
