Talking points from the Premier League

Talking points from the Premier League

1 FULL-STRENGTH CITY


Manchester City did not have to extend themselves in the 2-0 win over Fulham and it pleased manager Pep Guardiola that Kevin de Bruyne (strolled through his first start since March 2.
De Bruyne's season has been disrupted by injuries but his return from a hamstring problem has come at a good time for Guardiola, who also had the vital Fernandinho available for the first time since February.
City's squad are looking strong for their quadruple hunt.

2 NOT LONG LEFT FOR SARRI


Chelsea managers have endured spells of dissent from those in the stands, and on the pitch, open revolt and dreadful results.
But no head coach has endured as prolonged a mutiny as Maurizio Sarri. His team may have won 2-1 at Cardiff to avoid a fifth defeat in six away games, but there were few signs of progress.
Had they lost this match, Sarri's position would surely have been untenable. As it is, he limps into tomorrow's meeting with Brighton. It is hard to see a second term of the Sarri project.

3 HUDDERSFIELD PLAN INQUEST


Huddersfield manager Jan Siewert admits a detailed inquest is needed after a 2-0 defeat at Crystal Palace confirmed their record-equalling relegation.
The Terriers are one of two Premier League teams, along with Derby in 2008, to lose their top-flight status in March, picking up just 14 points from 32 games.
Siewert, who took the Huddersfield job in January, conceded his side will need root-and-branch reforms after their two-year stay in the Premier League. THE GUARDIAN, AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE

Football: Manchester United to subsidise fans by matching Barcelona's 'excessive' prices

LONDON (REUTERS) - Manchester United will hike prices for away fans when they host Barcelona in their Champions League quarter-final first leg to subsidise tickets for their own supporters travelling to Spain for the return, the Premier League club said.
United, who were allocated 4,610 tickets for the second leg, were informed by Barcelona that the price for away fans at the Nou Camp would be £102 (S$180), which British media reported was the most expensive ticket to a United game outside of a final.
In response, United raised their ticket prices for Barcelona supporters travelling to Old Trafford to the same amount and will use the extra revenue to ensure United fans pay only £75 for tickets for the second leg.
"Barcelona confirmed our tickets for this game were to be priced at 102 pounds. In this instance we believe that our travelling supporters are again being subjected to increased/excessive ticket prices from the host club," United said in a statement.
"Similarly to Valencia in the group stages and Sevilla away last season, we have again taken the difficult decision to charge Barcelona fans for the home leg at Old Trafford the same amount that Barcelona are charging for the away fixture (102 pounds).
"We will use the additional revenue gained from this to subsidise our travelling support by paying the 27 pounds price difference for each of our travelling supporters."
Last month, Bayern Munich fans protested against the cost of Champions League tickets by unfurling banners during the first leg of their last-16 tie at Liverpool, with the supporters of the Premier League club also backing them at Anfield.

 
United host Barcelona at Old Trafford on April 10 and the return leg at the Nou Camp will be played on April 16.

Solskjaer aims for 3rd

Solskjaer aims for 3rd

LONDON • Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has challenged his Manchester United players to get 15 points from the final six games to secure a top-three finish that will guarantee Champions League football.
By his calculation, that would mean beating either or both Manchester City, who are battling Liverpool to retain their Premier League title, and Chelsea in consecutive home games this month.
Urging his men to collect "as many points as possible" and reap the rewards, he said ahead of today's league game against West Ham: "We want top three. Top four is also an aim... but we should aim for 15 points.
"But now it's about West Ham and focusing on (that).
"If we get 15, we'll be (in the) top three because in those games, hopefully, we'll beat Chelsea."
It may seem a tough ask given that the Red Devils have lost four of their last five games in all competitions, the latest being the 1-0 home loss to Barcelona in the Champions League first leg on Wednesday.
A meeting with mid-table Hammers at Old Trafford represents the perfect opportunity to arrest an alarming slide in form.
Solskjaer pinned the reason for the slump on his team not being "ruthless or clinical enough" in front of goal and revealed it was something they were trying to rectify in training.
He added: "You're never happy when you don't win games, but it's been a period where we've played some good teams. We've been practising. As a striker, I know how important that little belief is so we've been putting balls in the goal.
"Sometimes, you just don't have that little feel, that confidence, so you have to do it in training and hope it comes out again."
But there is little he can do to freshen up his starting XI owing to a rash of injuries and suspensions.
Defenders Luke Shaw and Ashley Young are both banned and Solskjaer revealed that Marcos Rojo and Matteo Darmian could be in line to fill their full-back spots.
There are big doubts over midfielder Nemanja Matic and forward Alexis Sanchez.
The manager also spoke about the future of Ander Herrera, whose contract expires in the summer. He has been the subject of heavy speculation, with sources saying he has agreed a pre-contract agreement with French champions Paris Saint-Germain.
The Spain midfielder, who will not play today after suffering a muscle injury in training, has managed just 134 minutes since picking up a hamstring problem on Feb 24.
Solskjaer hinted that the "future might have been worrying him", thus contributing to his injury woes, adding: "That comes at a time as you say there are contract talks.
"But that's ongoing, I can't really comment too much on how far they are down the line. You have to ask him. I don't know how they've been, the last few talks.
"He's always giving his all, doesn't matter if it's five weeks or five years on his contract."

Football: Brighton boost survival hopes with Newcastle draw

Football: Brighton boost survival hopes with Newcastle draw

BRIGHTON, England (REUTERS) - Brighton & Hove Albion boosted their chances of staying in the Premier League after battling to a 1-1 draw with Newcastle United at the Amex Stadium on Saturday (April 27).
After 18th-placed Cardiff City lost at Fulham, Brighton earned a point that left them four clear of the relegation zone with two matches remaining.
Ayoze Perez put Newcastle in front in the 18th minute with a fine finish and the home side rarely offering anything in response for the remainder of the half.
Brighton did improve after the break and got their reward after 75 minutes when Pascal Gross headed in their first goal in eight matches in all competitions to equalise, much to the relief of the home supporters.
Brighton striker Glenn Murray had a glorious late opportunity to win the match, but headed over from close range.
With Arsenal and Manchester City to play, Brighton are not safe, but possess a far superior goal difference to Cardiff, who now need to win both their final games to have a chance of survival. Newcastle remained comfortable in 13th.
"There was a big relief for all of us," Gross told the BBC. "We pushed for the second but unfortunately that didn't happen. Two games left, we will see how it ends."
Newcastle controlled the early stages and deservedly took the lead through Perez, who lashed home Salomon Rondon's chest layoff, and that was Perez's last involvement in the match as he limped off soon after.
Fabian Schar was denied by a smart save from Brighton goalkeeper Mat Ryan and the hosts failed to muster a shot on target in the first half.
There was much more threat from Brighton after the interval and Shane Duffy headed just over.
Brighton's persistence finally paid off as Gross headed in Murray's knockdown from close range before Murray passed up the opportunity to snatch all three points with two minutes left.
"They were aggressive and they were fighting to avoid relegation," Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez told BT Sport.
"We needed to keep the ball better and our counter-attacks were not good.
"They were desperate to win so we need to understand the context of the game."

Eligibility row no concern for Qatar

Eligibility row no concern for Qatar

ABU DHABI • Qatar coach Felix Sanchez said his team would not be distracted from the "most important match in the country's football history" by a protest over the eligibility of two of their best players at the Asian Cup.
The National newspaper reported yesterday on the eve of the Qatar-Japan final that the host, the United Arab Emirates, had formally questioned the eligibility of Sudan-born striker Almoez Ali and Iraqi-born defender Bassam Al-Rawi.
World football governing body Fifa mandates that a player switching national teams must either qualify through their parents or grandparents or must reside in a country for five years after their 18th birthday.
It is alleged that the 22-year-old Ali and 21-year-old Al-Rawi have not met the residency requirements to be eligible. Qatar claimed that they have relatives born in the country which allows them to play, which the UAE disputes.
Ali scored his record-equalling eighth goal of the tournament when Qatar beat the UAE 4-0 in the semi-finals on Tuesday. Al-Rawi was suspended for that match but is expected to return for the final.
The Asian Football Confederation confirmed that it has received a protest from the UAE Football Association regarding two players and that it would be "reviewed in line with the AFC regulations".
Spaniard Sanchez, however, said that his players were focused on preparing for today's match at Zayed Sports City Stadium.
"We are only focused on the game we're going to play tomorrow, any other things not related to football is not in our minds at the moment. I'm not concerned at all," he said. "My players need no more motivation than to play an Asian Cup final."
The protest comes against a background of a political and economic boycott of Qatar which the UAE launched with Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Egypt in 2017. The four countries accuse Qatar of supporting terrorism, which it denies.

FOCUSED ON FINAL
We are only focused on the game we're going to play tomorrow, any other things not related to football is not in our minds at the moment.
FELIX SANCHEZ, Qatar coach, on his team's mentality as they approach today's Asian Cup final against Japan.

The political rift was manifest in Abu Dhabi on Tuesday when Emirati fans hurled sandals and drinks bottles at Ali and two other players celebrating their goals during the semi-final.
The rift also means that almost no Qatari fans or media have been in the UAE to support and report on their run to a first continental final.
Meanwhile, Japan captain Maya Yoshida called on tournament organisers to deal swiftly with incidents of "stupidity" that risk damaging the reputation of Asian football.
The Asian Cup has seen its share of controversial refereeing decisions, with host UAE twice awarded soft late penalties that left rivals players and coaches fuming.
Japan's semi-final victory over Iran also came close to boiling over, with Yoshida himself needing to be restrained by teammates after reacting furiously to a petulant slap from Sardar Azmoun.
"I think the AFC should control stuff about penalties and suspensions," said the Southampton defender yesterday.
"If (the Cup) is broadcast all over the world, you don't want to see any stupid things, especially after the game. We are representing Asia under the hashtag #bringingasiatogether, so it's important to represent Asia by playing good football and with fair play."
Japan enter the final as favourites to add to their record of four Asian Cup titles, but Qatar coach Sanchez insisted that the 2022 World Cup hosts were confident ahead of their first appearance in the final, after comfortably winning all six of their matches and keeping a record six clean sheets.
"To us, it's no surprise that we are in the final," he said. "I have full trust in the players, they are motivated to make history."
