The Spanish defender was signed to bolster their ailing defence in the winter window from Brazilian club Flamengo but has yet to feature for the first-team, though he was one of several first-team players to get a run out for the Under-23s against Manchester City on Friday. Video - Arteta: 'We can convince Aubameyang to stay'00:34 And Arteta has admitted that his new signing needs minutes and is likely to play on the south coast as Arsenal look to rescue a poor season with a good cup run.
He scored a record 59 goals for Spain, helping his country win Euro 2008 and the 2010 World Cup. Throughout his career Villa was linked with a number of Premier League teams including Chelsea and Liverpool. So why did he not play in England?"I love the Premier League. In my career I always watched a lot of games in the Premier League," he said. I always thought about going there one time, but in the moment that all these offers arrived to me or to my agent, I made another decision.

MISSED OPPORTUNITY At the King Power Stadium, Leicester missed out on the chance to join Manchester City on 51 points as an unlikely headed double from defender Antonio Rudiger earned Chelsea a draw. The vibrant second-half fare demonstrated again why neither team have been able to muster a sustained challenge to Liverpool, with poor defending enabling Germany international Rudiger to swoop twice.

Peterborough vs Burton predictions for Saturday’s League 1 fixture at Weston Homes Stadium. The hosts look to close in on the automatic promotion places. Read on for our free League 1 predictions and betting tips.
In the end, we’re expecting a fairly comfortable win for the visitors. Manchester City have averaged 2.7 goals per Premier League away game this season and two of their six trips away to bottom half sides have ended 3-1, so we’re backing a 3-1 correct score prediction here.
He has been spiky in recent days after those two setbacks with injury and defeat - but overall Mourinho has cut a happier, more relaxed figure at Spurs than he ever did at Old Trafford. Mourinho: Loss to Leipzig like 'going to fight without bullets'Former Chelsea and Scotland winger Pat Nevin told BBC Sport: "He looks quite relaxed at the moment but he tends to be that way when he's doing pretty well.
In terms of our correct score tip, it is a vitally important match for both of these two sides and we can see very little to separate them. The speculation in relation to the manager will no doubt have an effect on the hosts but the fact that they have averaged 1.7 goals per game at home and their visitors have scored an average of 1.7 goals per game on the road, suggests to us that a thrilling 2-2 draw is a solid bet.
Le Mans is not in bad shape, but still they are bad team and I think the most realistic outcome of this one will be Valenciennes victory, hosts are on the middle but much closer to the top then to the bottom of the table and at home they are pretty good this season with 5-3-2 score and if they beat Le Mans on the road in first part of the season, I surely expect from them to beat them again tonight and the odd is good enough so there is no reason for risking anything more than this bet which I surely recommend
I took my time to prepare myself for the next challenge. Honestly, United for me is in my book of experiences, it's in my history book. Mourinho left United when they were sixth in the Premier League. They are currently ninth under his successor Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, but just two points behind Tottenham, who are fifth. The 56-year-old won the League Cup, the Europa League and the Community Shield during his time at United, as well as finishing runners-up in the league in 2017-18.
Klopp is my favourite manager at the moment, though. THURSDAY Bournemouth v Tottenham (18:00 BST)Bournemouth's problem against Manchester United at the weekend was that they got them angry. When the Cherries took the lead, it was like swatting a wasp. That was a bad defeat for them in the end. I know they scored a couple of goals at Old Trafford, but then they go and concede five. Tottenham have got their own issues, and I am sure Jose Mourinho will be keen to address them in the next transfer window.
It's been a long while coming but a first ATP senior title on home soil awaits Argentinian Diego Schwartzman. He has shown some good form already this year and his performance this week bodes well for the upcoming clay court season. He has only dropped one set this week compared to the two of his opponent. With home advantage and consistent form, Schwartzman can win this match.
One more excellent match for goals from Nicaragua U20 league and new duel who will be played tonight in this interesting league. So, most of teams from this league are very efficient every week and I can say the same and for this two rivals, because Las Sabanas U20 is team who is for example, in last round won at home in league in very good match, 4-1, but also, in round before, they are lost even 0-5. Managua U20 is similar team who is mostly also, playing efficient. I will bet on goals here and follow this match on internet.
Does he need someone next to him who has been a manager themselves to sit with him and help him? I would say that maybe he does. It doesn’t have to be big names that come through the door in January to fix it. Apart from anything else, how many big-name players want to come to Manchester United at the present moment? I don't believe that's the answer.

Jan Vertonghen tries a through ball, but Dele Alli is caught offside. Watford's remarkable revival under Nigel Pearson continued as they hung on with 10 men to beat Wolves and move a point from Premier League safety. The hosts looked to be cruising to a third win in four matches after they took a first-half lead through Gerard Deulofeu, who curled low into the bottom corner.
Last Thursday's first leg saw the Portuguese Liga champions fall to a 2-1 defeat. Second-best in terms of possession and second-best when it came to shots taken, the scoreline reflected Benfica's ranking. Shakhtar put in an accomplished performance, stringing neat passing moves together, their first goal being the product of one such play.
The hosts have secured three wins in their last four matches, which they will hope can boost them going into this trip. However, those three wins have all come at home. That has been a familiar story for Rovers, who are lacking on the road.
Sydney leads the league with 28 points while Adelaide is 5`th with 15 points. The visitors are ranked 5th in the league and even though they have only 5-0-5 so far, they are in the play-off position. Sydney is again dominant and they have 6-0-0 at home this season. They were tested greatly at home vs City but even with a man down, they were able to win the game. Sydney is the team with the best attack but they also have the best defense in the league. Sydney has won the past 5 at home vs Adelaide and this should come as well. Adelaide is in a poor form lately, losing 3 of the last 4 matches and they already dropped some points against weak teams lately. Sydney is surely a better team here.
In fact, Van Dijk just looks like he's getting better and better. A transfer to a club like Juventus wouldn't be out of the question, but it seems more likely to happen at the end of the 2020-21 season - instead of this summer. Read the full story Desperate United wanted deadline day deal for Murray Manchester United reportedly considered a deadline day swoop from Brighton striker Glenn Murray, according to the Mail.
We'll do something. Hasenhuettl said Mali winger Moussa Djenepo will not feature against Villa as the 21-year-old recovers from a hamstring issue - the latest in a series of injuries for the summer signing. He has problems with his hamstring and the risk is too big. We have a lot of games over Christmas.
Newcastle scored at least once in four of their last five Premier League home games with the team's threat from set-pieces a particularly potent weapon, and we're backing the Magpies to make the most of that avenue against a City side that regularly struggle to defend dead-ball deliveries into their box.

At the end of the [first] half, he tracked Sadio Mane all the way and Chelsea fans will feel he has been their player of the half. View more on twitterCould he get a Scotland call-up?Gilmour has represented Scotland up to under-21 level, but with the Euro 2020 play-off semi-final with Israel to come on 26 March, should Steve Clarke give him a first senior call-up? Should he start?His potential has long been discussed, but now he is delivering performances at the highest level it might be increasingly difficult to leave him out, especially if he keeps his place in the Chelsea team.
That story speaks volumes about how the game has changed; the sentiment behind it is very apt. Last week I suggested the north London giants should look no further than Carlo Ancelotti. Meanwhile, Everton have gone for the more experienced man. I completely understand the argument that after more than 20 years of Arsene Wenger, another advocate of the 'old school' might not have been to Arsenal's taste.
Juventus have shown flashes of what Sarri wants and still lead Serie A by one point but a lot of their possession has been sterile and, in Serie A, they have scored fewer goals than at the same stage last season -- 48 against 53. Sarri has complained several times before that the message is not getting across but Wednesday's performance was particularly frustrating.
The Addicks come here having shipped two goals in eight of their last nine away trips, so they are likely to suffer to this Swansea attack. However, the visitors have been handy going forward this term. Lyle Taylor picked up another goal in the defeat Derby on Monday, with both teams scoring in seven of Charlton’s last eight away games.
Manchester City have one loss in their last nine matches. Manchester City have scored 11 goals in their last four away league games. Aston Villa have an injury crisis and that won't help them one bit in this game. Could this be a rehearsal for the EFL Cup final? That's possible but both teams return to Premier League action as 17th placed Aston Villa host Manchester City who are in third.
Stephen Robinson's recruitment hit the mark big time when he signed Declan Gallagher from Livingston and Chris Long from Blackpool. Both had significant seasons. Robinson did a good job amid testing professional and personal circumstances, albeit the end of the season may have come as a bit of a blessing for them given that they won only one of their last eight league games before the shutdown. Motherwell could do with holding on to their manager.
A club statement said: "Callum displayed symptoms similar to a mild cold on Monday morning and has not been at the training ground since then as a precaution. However, his test came in positive and he will undergo a period of self-isolation. Chelsea said club personnel, including the men's squad, coaching and backroom staff, would self-isolate while the men's team building at their training ground would be closed.
I see it slightly different, I think it's normal and a lot of people see it slightly differently. Klopp said Messi was probably the best player he had seen in his lifetime and deserved to be a six-times winner. But the last season, if you really go for only that season, then I cannot remember a more impressive season for a defender ever, honestly," said the German.

Southampton striker Danny Ings on BBC Match of the Day: "I am just happy to be scoring goals for the team. You saw today, the team do their best to provide the chances, they work so hard behind me I feel there is a little bit more pressure to put them away. After hitting the bar twice I thought maybe it wasn't my day but we all stuck in there and I thought we deserved to win. How we have been over Christmas and since then has been massive for us and the club moving forward and long may it continue.
Despite being actually 2nd in the table of this League, this won't be an easy game for Torpedo Zhodino in my opinion: they have scored no goal in 3 out of the last 4 away games, winning once by 5-2 vs FC Minsk but also losing by 2-0 vs Dinamo Minsk, so scoring here seems to be hard for them. Neman is inside the relegation zone at the moment, however they have been very convincing at home, because they have collected 7 out of their 8 points here, winning twice to nil and also beating a very good team like Energetyk. In my opinion Neman Grodno can take advantage of playing here to win this match.
In terms of pure footballing ability, these are two very good sides and I am not thinking this game is going to be dull at all. Wolves are quietly climbing the table and are up in eighth place, which shows what a good run they are on, considering they did not get their first league win until 28 September. But I have been impressed by Bournemouth too. I know they lost at Newcastle last time out but their home form has been decent and I think they might just edge this one.
