Arsenal fans doesn’t have any options than to accept the second position every season because that's the best they can get. Even during Arse Wenger's reign, Arsenal was a business club so I don't see why they will be mad at Arteta who is always finishing on second positions recently.

The Auxerre match was a very bad match for Marseille. While Marseille is aiming for the Champions League, they will not be able to recover from such a defeat psychologically. In the match in which they conceded 3 goals, they had statistically destroyed their opponent on the field. However, football is not a game of statistics. The one who scores the goal wins the match. And indeed, that is what happened and Marseille lost.

Let's have a look...



I see a Real Madrid - Liverpool semi final draw already there.    Nobody to stop Liverpool until then. PSG destroyed Brest but we are talking about Liverpool here. PSG aren't strong enough to eliminate them surprisingly.

On the other side, I believe the semi final matchup would be Barcelona - Inter. It would be such a tough one to predict. I don't want to underestimate Inter. I assume Barcelona would make it by close margin then.

And an El Clasico in the finale... This is my prediction for now. 

Manchester City are still struggling even after they showed signs of recovery a while back. It seems to me that they have lost belief and confidence in themselves. I think they have realized that they are no long the invincible team they used to be. Liverpool on the other are the favorites to win the title and they are in high spirits, they are motivated enough to take on City and unlike Arsenal, Liverpool will not bottle their title season.

Barcelona had an easy win over Las Palmas in the weekend, maintaining their lead over Real Madrid in the race for the league crown this season. There was no doubt that they will win overcome Las Palmas in this fixture, Barcelona are in fine form and very ambitious this season to go head to head against Real Madrid for the league title.

If anyone wonders how Robin Van Persie got "easily" the job of manager at Feyenoord, that dude was always there all his life. I mean sure he was transferred to other teams at times, but he was raised there as a kid, played there at the main team as an adult, and he always goes back there, after his playing career was over, he literally just sent there and got his licenses and started training with the youth team and all, basically earning his managerial debut in another team but until then spent time as coach in many stages of Feyenoord as well.

This is why I honestly can see why Feyenoord ended up getting him, this dude basically spent 20+ years there in total, who knows the team better than him? If he is a good manager, he should shine here even more.

What are you trying to say here mate? Manchester City played excellently yesterday and the problem was not even from their attack but the defense was terrible which was the reason for their defeat. When everybody is healthy, City was not doing extremely badly but things took another direction now.

After the victory achieved by Barcelona and Atletico Madrid in other matches, then the match against Girona will be a must-win match by Madrid later if they want to maintain their chances and distance in the championship competition, I think Madrid ambition in the match will be very big and I don't doubt if they will be able to win 3 points in the match later,  Although maybe  Bellingham absence will have an impact on creativity and also the solidity of their midfield, but on the other hand, Madrid still has Brahim Diaz, Arda Guler and Endrick who can replace Bellingham later, besides that, the return of some of their injured players of course provides many options for Ancelotti in the match.

Girona has seen a remarkable drop in form this season compared from last season, so I don't think they are a team to be afraid  in the match, it is very likely that Madrid can pick up 3 points in the match to keep the competition La Liga title still tight this season.

Arda Guler has been linked with a move to another team, even last summer there were several teams that were ready to give him playing time if he wanted to move, but instead he preferred to stay in Madrid and try to get a place in the Madrid squad, even at that time Ancelotti also said that he would give enough playing time to Arda Guller and that's why he is quite confident in staying in Madrid although he musy to compete with many star players, I don't know at the moment what triggered his desire to leave, but it seems if he is starting to get disappointed with what Ancelotti promised previously.

When Al Nassr has the opportunity to be able to shorten the distance from the two teams at the top of the standings, they actually must to stumble from the team that is actually far below them, currently the match between Al Hillal vs Al Ittihad is running quite tight and the two teams still drawing 1-1 in the 43rd minute , if you look at the aggressiveness and balance of the game from both teams it seems like a narrow victory for one team or maybe also a draw will be the final result of the match.

Al Nassr in the match against Al Ettifaq actually played quite well despite a goalless draw in the first half, but the second half actually their can first lead 2-0 over Ettifaq, but unfortunately Fatil who previously managed to score 1 goal for Al Nassr, precisely made a mistake that led to a goal and also create an own goal which finally made Al Nassr fail to win 3 points in the match.

Inter have achieved their success, due to which they have taken the top position of the points table by collecting three points against their opponent Genoa. Inter has taken the position where Napoli was at the top, now the difference between the two teams is only 1 point, so at this time the two teams will face a lot of competition. Based on the performance of the two teams, those who can maintain their form properly by the end of the season are the ones who deserve to be champions. In Serie A, Inter and Napoli are the two teams that will face the most competition, the performance of both teams is currently good, so it is not yet certain which team will be the champion by the end of the season.

It is known that PSG is the absolute leader of Ligue 1, Marseille tends to compete with a higher level, but they have not been able to reach them, it is a shame, I think that has caused some boredom in Ligue 1, on the other hand, until now things with Liverpool have been impeccable, the confrontation with PSG in the UCL will be very interesting, Luis Enrique, like the new PSG that he is managing, is growing, if Liverpool does not grow too, they can lose, many unpleasant things can happen, I think Liverpool has to go all out.

To be honest, I actually hope that if every team in the round of 16 does not meet each other with a team from the same league, because that it feels like watching an ordinary match that has happened in the league so far, the Madrid derby may be tight because of the strength of the two teams that look balanced this season, but we cannot deny that the mentality and experience that Madrid has both in the league and UCL will make them continue the dominance of victory over Atletico Madrid later, compared from the Madrid derby, the PSG vs Liverpool match will be more interesting to me, although PSG does not have a good mentality in the UCL but the match between the two big teams of course will be very tight later, especially this season will be last season for enrique in coaching PSG and I think he will try everything to win UCL trophies.

5 Mins away from your post, the score has climbed up to 4-1, Newcastle is getting their home advantage just the usual way it has been. 35 Min+ inside the fixture and it's already hot for Nottm Forest.

Attacking Newcastle intensively has left their defense open, during the 2-1 score they were hopeful and pressed more, this tactic affected them so much in the blink of time, the defense was open, quick counter on the 2nd and last goals were as a result of open defense and brilliant combination from Newcastle players. The pressure from Newcastle doesn't seem ending, i sense more goals coming in the remaining minutes of the game.
