Mourinho, who took charge of the north London club on Wednesday, has inherited a squad that finished in the Premier League's top four in four consecutive seasons, but are currently 14th after a poor start to the campaign. The Portuguese returns to club management 11 months after being sacked by Manchester United, where he made a poor start to last season and was criticised by fans and pundits for playing dull, defence-minded football.
Those are decisions of such importance that he needed better results to justify them. Throw in Mourinho mischievously claiming in advance that he knew which system Lampard would use and the personnel involved (he was right) and this was a big day for the 41-year-old boss. It was a day when it came down to stick or twist for this relative managerial rookie.

Michal Koziol: Everyone who said Ighalo wasn't the calibre United need should look at that goal over and over again. The first touch, the control, the power, everything perfect. Such a shame the stadium's empty. Nicholas Mills: Anything about this Ighalo loan spell reminding anyone of Henrik Larsson.
It is thought that the financial costs of not completing the season could amount to £750 million for the Premier League alone. The Times quote a "senior figure in broadcasting" as saying: " The commercial reality for the Premier League and Uefa is that if they don’t complete their seasons then they are in breach of their broadcasting contracts.
It was too little too late. With their FA Cup interest at an end, Howe must turn his attention to moving Bournemouth out of the relegation places. They face a huge game at home to Aston Villa this weekend.

The visitors took the lead after just seven minutes when Iago Aspas slotted through Fedor Smolov, with the Russian sliding a finish past Thibaut Courtois to score his first La Liga since joining in the January window. Real Madrid ramped up things at the start of the second half and turned the game around, first with an equaliser from Toni Kroos who finished from a Marcelo cut back and then from the spot as Sergio Ramos converted a penalty kick won by the returning Eden Hazard.

Manchester CityGetty Images UEFA opened an investigation into City last March after the publication of 'Football Leaks' documents led to allegations that the club’s Abu Dhabi owners had inflated sponsorship agreements to comply with the FFP requirements. The leaked documents included club emails which referred to money being "routed" through sponsors.
Read the full story Partey time for Arsenal Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta could be set to make his first big-money signing this summer as the club prepare to meet the release clause of Atletico Madrid midfielder Thomas Partey. The Sun report that the Gunners are ready to pay £42 million for the 26-year-old, while the Spanish club plan to hold talks with Partey over a new deal which would see his release clause increased.
The warning signs had been there from the outset. Raul Silva was picked out by a Sequeira free-kick only to head straight at Allan McGregor, with Braga having two bites at the rebound but failing to convert. Mercurial forward Francisco Trincao - who has agreed a £26m move to Barcelona this summer - then flashed a shot inches wide before Fransergio made his side's dominance count. The Brazilian midfielder strode forward, shrugged off Scott Arfield's attempted challenge and thudded a swerving 25-yard drive in off the crossbar.

He also contributed superbly to yet another clean sheet. That is 13 for the season now - only newly crowned champions Liverpool have more. Dyche may not have the biggest squad, but the players he does have are full of character and resolve. In the first half we played very well. We've had to change things with the stretched squad we have and we did very well," said the delighted manager. In the second half Palace came out strongly and we lost our way a little bit but we stayed resolute and we had to change our shape, because we had kids on the bench and we didn't want to throw them in.

They begin the year outside of the European places in the Premier League down in 10th place and host Championship leaders Leeds United in the FA Cup third round. The two sides famously met in the 100th cup final, way back in 1972 when Leeds won 1-0. Both clubs are doing their best to recapture the golden days.
Brinkschulte told the BBC: "The only thing we can say is that the nationality of the player per se does not have an impact on the success rate in scored penalty kicks. This is an interesting finding because now we can conclude that simply 'being an English football player' does not affect the performance in penalty kicks. In turn, the fact that England actually has lost in these shootouts does not automatically mean that they are bad at scoring penalty kicks in general.
The coronavirus pandemic means neither side will have their supporters in the ground, but Jackett is relaxed about the unusual situation. Home advantage is going to be minimal I think. Normally it's such a big thing in football," he told BBC Radio Solent. But quite often in recent play-off ties, when the crowd has been there, it hasn't been such a big advantage as it would be normally. With the season curtailed and the final table settled on a points-per-game basis, Jackett is relieved to have the chance to end their campaign on a positive note.
Meanwhile, an ankle injury and related issues had restricted Paul Pogba to just eight appearances this season for Manchester United, with his last back on Boxing Day, but he is expected to be fit for football's return. Reds striker Marcus Rashford, out of action since January with a back injury, is also nearing full fitness. As mentioned, Bournemouth will be particularly boosted by the break in play as they should be able to call upon a number of first-team players who had otherwise looked out of the picture.
They added: "His loss will be painfully felt by all who had the pleasure of knowing him. Mbulu spent one season with Motherwell after joining from Millwall in 2018, and made six league appearances during his time at Fir Park. He made seven appearances for Crewe after signing a short-term deal in October and signed for fellow League Two side Morecambe in January until the end of the season, making three appearances.
We rely on our outstanding staff to deliver an exceptional service and experience to fans at Old Trafford," executive vice chairman Ed Woodward said in a statement. We understand that these are unprecedented circumstances and want to give them security whatever may happen regarding our remaining fixtures this season.
But it is also an essential one. Fabian Delph and Oleksandr Zinchenko had to make the transition to full-backs and Fernandinho has had to reinvent himself as a central defender. All three have benefited from Arteta's forensic expertise. Brazil striker Gabriel Jesus has had his fair share of problems integrating into the City way but he, too, has been helped by Arteta's guidance. In a recent interview he said: "He's helped a lot of players.

Full story on IOC statement. We've got the full story on that statement from Thomas Bach today about Tokyo 2020, which you can cast your eye over here. To summarise, cancellation is off the cards but plans could be put in place for a possible postponement. A decision is expected in the next four weeks.
I saw the league game at Leicester between them earlier this season as there were a dozen of clear scoring chances at both ends of the pitch and if they would have only scored at least once in the first half when both sides missed some glorious scoring chances there could have been more than the 4 goals scored in the second half alone as it ended up in a 2-2 draw in the end. And Leicester is on a Champions League place at this moment same as Chelsea, only problem for them is that they drew both league games after the break.
Dinamo Minsk has 3 wins and 3 losses in the league so far this season and still just two of their games ended with just one goal scored it was a 1-0 defeat at home to Rukh Brest who actually played all their games so far this season in the league with under 1.5 goals scored in them and a 1-0 defeat away at another very defensive side Gorodeja but they did have a lot of scoring chances there. The other games played by Dinamo had at least 2 goals scored starting with a 3-2 loss away at FC Minsk, followed by a 2-0 win at home with Zhodino, another 2-0 win at home with Newman and a 3-1 win last round away at Smolevichi.
He had scored just one direct free-kick goal in his previous 305 appearances. Silva is the third oldest player in Premier League history to reach 10 assists in a single campaign (34 years 189 days), after Dennis Bergkamp and Paolo Di Canio. What next? City head for WembleyCity, who have already successfully defended the Carabao Cup this season, are looking to keep the FA Cup in their trophy cabinet too, and the holders play Arsenal in the semi-finals at an empty Wembley on Saturday at 19:45 BST.

Tobias Haupt, head of the DFB Academy, the unit tasked with devising and organising coach education, said: "Klinsmann is a true thoroughbred coach, German football owes him a lot, and he is one of the national team honorary captains. That said, of course certain rules also apply to him. That is now being checked. Haupt added: "We know that over the last few years he has actively sought to widen his coaching horizon by taking part in further training courses, for example in Mexico and Brazil, where maybe less attention was paid to issuing badges or certificates.
The 4-0 win over a Southampton side who had made life hard for the Reds until being swamped in the second half saw Klopp's European champions pass yet more milestones in what increasingly promises to be one of English football's landmark campaigns. After agreeing that Liverpool's 22-point lead in the Premier League -- the biggest at the end of a day in the history of England's top-flight -- was 'astonishing', Klopp was also asked by reporters if he had seen such consistency from any team.
I am not so sure about the away win in this one because the guests lost here earlier this season while playing also in the league with 3-1 in the end and Roeselare is in good form winning their last two league games with 3-1 both of them on the road last round with Lokeren and at home with Lommel SK, this while Leuven last round had problems because they received a really early red card away at Lommel SK but were still good enough to score 2 goals just that their defense conceded 3 times and so lost the game with 3-2 in the end.
