Supporters are looking forward to seeing him lead the team to titles. People here look back to the side that won our one and only Africa Cup of Nations in 1976 and we've also had the likes of Mustapha Hadji and Noureddine Naybet. Ziyech, though, is someone Moroccan fans are proud of because he chose to play for Morocco and has always spoken well about the country. He's also someone that is a sociable, humble guy. I'd be lying if I said I felt the equaliser coming. My goal came from nowhere. Arsenal were much the better side in the second half and they had started their 'oles', knocking it around, looking confident. I was trying to get some pride out of the team and myself. When Gael Clichy slips and I nick the ball off him I was looking for bodies to pass to but there was nobody there so I just thought I'd take on the shot and it goes in. Paper Round's view: Real Madrid might want Haaland, but that doesn't mean that he will be moving to Madrid this summer. The young Norwegian has only just joined Borussia Dortmund and he is enjoying his time there. Moving to the Spanish capital might not guarantee first-team football as Benzema is an important player for Zinedine Zidane's side. FULL STORY 19:20 - Schalke ask fans for help Bundesliga club Schalke has asked for assistance from its fans. They are entitled to a rebate for their season tickets given the suspension of the season due to coronavirus. However, if fans forego their cash in order to help the club stay afloat, they will be given a special shirt for the gesture. Assisted by Mauro Icardi. Posted at 73' Attempt missed. Kylian Mbappé (Paris Saint Germain) left footed shot from the centre of the box is too high. Assisted by Pablo Sarabia. Posted at 72' Attempt saved. Imran Louza (Nantes) right footed shot from outside the box is saved in the bottom right corner. Their away form has been a worry all season and they had earned just one point from six games before a win at Burnley and a draw at Brighton. Getting something from this game is vitally important. Not just because Bournemouth will ovetake them in the table if they win. The next five Villa games after this match are all against sides currently in the top nine. He does seem to be sulking all the time, why that is I don't know. He doesn't seem to be happy, but whose job is it to put that right? The manager's. That is the point of managing - you have all these different personalities and you have to get the best out of each individual. Jose needs to find a way to get Ndombele on to the pitch because the team just looks slow. Harry Winks isn't quick, Giovani lo Celso doesn't seem that quick. Benfica plays Vizela for Taça de Portugal, Portugal's national cup. That is an important cup. Benfica, currently the best team in Portugal will play a team that is not bad but is way way under in competitive level. We always know that these teams gain motivation and get fierce when they come against these big teams and sometimes surprises happen. Even though a of that is true Benfica know that as well, they will play their good players and will not facilitate anything or concede any errors that might get them in a shameful position. I predict Benfica to win by many. I see a difference in terms of quality between these two sides, while it is true Wolfsburg finished just 2nd their own group stage in the Europa League and Malmo won their own group, Malmo was really lucky to be in a group with Copenhagen, Dynamo Kyiv and Lugano from Switzerland, modest clubs and nowhere near the quality of Wolfsburg who have been restarting the season in Germany for more than a month right now and with excellent results lately in the league as well winning games on the road as well. You’ve got to be thick-skinned. Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson is a big part of it but all the captains came together on a video call and we had it in hand before it all came out. It took a lot of planning to be honest. You can’t just come up with it in a few days - we wanted it to be right. We wanted to help the NHS and frontline workers, the people who are right now in this situation. Players do things all the time without publicity. Porto score an average of 1.50 goals per away game and concede an average of 0.83 goals while Casa Pia score an average of 1.17 goals per home game and concede an average of 2.00 goals, and we expect the visitors to be provided with more opportunities to score and for them to exceed their average away goals tally on Thursday due to the void in overall quality between the two clubs. The Netherlands manager Ronald Koeman is in hospital in Amsterdam after being admitted with \"chest complaints\". The former Southampton and Everton boss, 57, has undergone \"successful cardiac catheterisation\", said his management company. Koeman, who made 192 appearances for Barcelona during his playing career, is expected to leave hospital on Monday. Ronald will need a few days rest, hopefully it will be respected by you,\" said a statement. We know there are other leagues, but really a small number, that are having these considerations,\" said Colombo. The vast majority has been focusing 100% on the resumption of their competitions. One of the reasons for us to maintain [this] as a priority. And, of course, we have to avoid jeopardising the excellent work and co-operation we have developed with Uefa during the past weeks. Colombo added that while restarting competitions would be \"good\", they would respect \"whatever decision a league may take\". On behalf of all the team and staff, I would like to take this opportunity to send our sympathies to those who have lost loved ones already. Our thoughts are with you and with those who sadly will suffer similarly in the coming period. In the way you've all come together to support our team, we must now work together to combat a virus that is causing physical and emotional issues to so many. So, please continue to follow the guidelines for hygiene and also the sensible precautions put in place to control the spread of the virus in order to protect those most vulnerable to its impact. WEDNESDAY’S BIG STORIES Haaland of hope and glory We were promised a goalfest. And for more than an hour, it looked as though we were all going home unhappy. Borussia Dortmund’s kids and PSG’s galacticos were bouncing off one another, nothing was quite coming together, and it was all very frustrating … until Erling Braut Haaland sniffed a loose ball in the penalty area, stuck out his leg, and kicked the knockout stages of the Champions League into gear. Portsmouth haven’t had the start they wanted but are starting to pull themselves back together and are undefeated in their last five. They have four wins and four draws at home, and given that they have earned 67% of their points at Fratton Park, they know that their home form is key to their recovery. The hosts have scored in all but one home game so far but have yet to beat any side who is placed higher than them in the league this season. The two higher placed visitors to Fratton Park so far were Oxford and Coventry, who drew 1-1 and 3-3 respectively. The coach deals with the team, and a variety of people are given the task of doing everything else, the most notable from a public perspective probably being transfers. That’s where you should have a proper sporting director, the sort of person who can guide the club’s longer-term vision and with the authority to say no to a coach, if he suggests getting some old pals in or demands unwise transfer moves. Bale has missed 77 games due to injury since signing for Real Madrid from Tottenham Hotspur for a then world record fee of 100 million euros ($110 million) and suffered his latest setback in last week's 2-1 win at Alaves, his first start in two months. Real have not released any medical information on Bale's latest problem but on Thursday issued medical reports on Eden Hazard and Marcelo, who will also miss the Espanyol match, with Hazard set to be out for the rest of the year. They are important in this side. They are not the icing on the cake; they are probably a quarter of the team at the moment. Manchester United aren’t buying anyone… no, wait, they are…. It would seem like a howling scream in the face of all logic that even Ed Woodward, even this crack sponsorship negotiator who looks like Ian Hislop’s younger brother who thinks he’s smarter than he is but who has somehow been in charge of buying players for one of the biggest clubs in the world, would take a look at this Manchester United squad and think “Nope, that looks all set, there really is absolutely nobody out there who can improve this lot. In addition, while Hammers United know what they do not like about the ownership - who, they argue, have gone back on investment and dialogue promises made in the build-up to the move out of Upton Park in 2016 - they have not put forward an alternative. They simply believe that if Sullivan and Gold were to indicate a willingness to sell, someone would come forward. For now, their battle will continue through songs, walks such as the one on Saturday, and events like the black balloon protest from their away game at Liverpool.
