He is somebody who brings what was sadly missing at Old Trafford and he seems to have livened up everyone. The team is playing well and they look like scoring goals.

I want someone with charisma. A good communicator and a motivator, who can bring the right balance to their style of play. Above all, though, Arsenal need a winner. Someone with a long-term vision for the club, and the ability to see that vision through. Ljungberg is interim manager but Patrick Vieira, Nuno Espirito Santo and Carlo Ancelotti are among the candidates being linked to the permanent Arsenal jobSo it is a bit concerning that there does not appear to be a clear plan in the type of manager that the board wants - you only have to look at the very different profiles of all the names being mentioned to see that.

I'm very very sure that home team or BATE Borisov will win this match in Belarusian Premier league, with at least 1-0 and probably and more than that, 2-0 or 3-0. So, the fact is that this team is in first two rounds started poor and it was huge surprise to see just 0-0-2 their score, but after that they are start to play better.

I feel very, very bad. From ecstasy to despair, Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang experienced it all within the space of just seven minutes on Thursday. The striker had scored a sensational goal in the 113th minute of the Gunners' Europa League second-leg match with Olympiakos to put them 2-1 up on aggregate and seemingly on their way into the last 16.

Bayern Munich are on a charge and that usually ends in a league title. They have recovered from a slow start to go a point clear at the top and a win this weekend will strengthen their position.

Here we have a very strange set of results in last year's K2 season between these 2 clubs at Anyang's stadium, we have a 0 x 0 in the first match in may and then we have a second match 3 x 2 at the end of October last year. Makes no sense putting it as a 50 50 chance based on these last results. The numbers do tell us that these 2 teams have a 64% chance of scoring so, at 1,67 which is close to 60% we have value on this bet. 2 x 1 or a 1 x 1 draw

Lviv, who is have few very good Brazilians in team is favorite here and we will see what will happen. Over is ok for me and I will try that, it is ok.
