Pep Guardiola confirms 5 first team players will miss Liverpool clash


Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has confirmed that five of his trusted lieutenants will miss the penultimate clash with Liverpool. 

 Liverpool are arguably the only Premier League team strong enough to stop City from winning a third consecutive League title. They're 6 points ahead of City having won 10 games and drawn just once this season.. 

 A win at Anfield will see the Reds move 9 points clear of City which Guardiola will be hoping to avoid. 

 But beating Liverpool at Anfield will be hard without Aymeric Laporte {ankle injury}, Leroy Sane {cruciate ligament damage}, Rodri {calf injury} and Aleks Zinchenko {ankle injury} and now David Silva {muscular problem} will be very hard. 

 "I didn't speak with the doctor but when he has a muscular problem and cannot play more minutes", Guadiola told reporters about David Silva's injury. 

 "It is because he has something and when it is a muscular problem it always a minimum of 10-12 days". 

 Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp both know the clash will decide the destination of the Premier League. Klopp have smartly rested Fabinho against Aston Villa to keep him fresh for the clash while Guardiola has alerted the referees about the tendency of Sadio Mane going down in the box to win last minute penalties.

Is Messi and Fabregas right to vote and say 'Sadio Mane is the best Player in the World?'

The Premier League highest scoring Senegalese has yet proven why Barcelona ace Lionel Messi picked him as the best player in the world.  Messi watched him, played against him and was marveled by his phenomenal contribution not just to Liverpool winning the Champions League and the UEFA Super Cup but to Senegal reaching the Africa Cup of Nation final.  Mane was outstanding last season and he has carried that form into this season despite resting for just two weeks.  His excellent display against Salzburg on Wednesday and got Cesc Fabregas purring and reminiscent the thought he shared with his best friend Lionel Messi.  Messi voted Sadio Mane as the best player in the world and Fabregas now says the Liverpool man is among the top 3 best players in the world.  Messi and Fabregas might have seen something special about Mane and that is why they rate him so high..  They rate him higher than Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and even Cristiano Ronaldo a...

10 years without a trophy! Its time Harry Kane ditch Tottenham Hotspur

Last season was memorable, Tottenham Hotspur were very close to lifting their first ever Champions League trophy. If they had won it, Spurs would've been the dream club of every elite player.  Superstars all over the world would've joined at the opportunity to play for them while the likes of Christian Eriksen, Vertonghen, Ross and others won't hesitate to extend their contract. But the defeat to Liverpool was sour and the bitter taste have lingered on till this very day.  Spurs have dropped to a level of mediocrity never seen before and questions are beginning to be asked about the manager's commitment to the club's course as well as players.  The top players are running down their contract with the view of moving else where there's a realistic chance of winning trophies.  That idea of leaving has gobsmacked Harry Kane who now knows he might never win a single trophy with Spurs despite having Mauricio Pochettino as his manager.  Why? Tott...

Why Harry Kane must consider joining Manchester City as Sergio Aguero's replacement

Harry Kane has reached the stage of his career when he has to think deeply about his future and ask himself if sticking with Tottenham Hotspur beyond this season will be good for his career or not.  The England international captain have spent 10 years at Spurs and only once have he come close to winning a meaningful trophy {2019 Champions League}. But in those years, Kane has developed into one of Europe's  top striker.  With Spurs he has scored 171 goals in 263 appearances and won the golden boot in 2 of the last 3 seasons.  Kane is top class striker but he knows he has to win trophies to become one of the best player in the world. He knows scoring goals without winning meaningful trophies is tantamount to a wasted career.  Players remember the number of trophies they won when they retire while fans idolize them for the trophy they managed to win for the club and their key contributions in winning them.  Kane knows he is already a legend at Tot...

The Brazilian will miss roughly 10 games including the FIFA Club World Cup scheduled to be held in Qatar.  His absence will be felt, knowing he has developed into of the best holding midfielders in the world. But Liverpool have enough midfielders reckons Jurgen Klopp who has pinpointed 3 players who he think can play that role.  Naby Keita, Adam Lallana, Gini Wijnaldum and Jordan Henderson are the four players Klopp believe can play that role.  Realistically, only Jordan Henderson can play that role perfectly due to his physical strength, tenacious tackling and discipline..  "Naby is OK. No more injuries from Napoli other than Fabinho", Klopp told reporters during his press conference.  'It's an opportunity for someone, of course. Hendo, Gini and Lallana have all played it. We can system too. Losing a player of Fab's quality is a blow but we are not th...

Fabinho could miss Manchester City clash: So should Liverpool rest him against Aston Villa?

Fabinho might have struggled for 5-6 months to make Liverpool's first team when he first arrived but now, he is one of those names Jurgen Klopp never omits in the first team..  He plays every game nowadays and makes key contributions to the team's game plan. His tackles, interceptions and dynamism remains one of the key reasons Liverpool are yet to lose a Premier League game this season.  But, the Brazilian tackles haven't been always good and have resulted to four yellow cards. If he picks up another against Aston Villa he will miss Liverpool's title deciding clash against Manchester City at Anfield.  No disrespect to Aston Villa, they're a good team but Liverpool don't really need Fabinho in the team to win.. Its going to tough no doubt about that, but the likes of Jordan Henderson and James Milner can play in his position and Liverpool will still win.  So should Liverpool play him or rest for the penultimate clash with Manchester City?

De Bruyne reveals Manchester City most underrated player

Kevin de Bruyne has lauded praises on Fernandinho who he says is the club's most underrated player.  Fernandinho impact at City have been huge, he is arguably the club's best defensive midfielder and the one of the top 3 defensive midfielders in world football.  But as he ages, Pep Guardiola decided it was time he switched from a more defensive role into a full blow centre-back which has impressed De Bruyne.  Asked about his vice-captain, De Bruyne said: "Dinho can play everywhere. Since i came here he's been really under-rated", he told Sky Sports.  "For me he was one of the best defensive midfielders in the world, and now he just comes in as central defender and does what he does.  "Props to him, because obviously he is 35 and it's not easy to play a new position, especially when you've never done it in the 14 years before that".  Fernandinho is on course to sign a one year contract with Manchester City.

Roy Hodgson reveals what Crystal Palace must do to beat Liverpool

Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson is confident of becoming the first Premier League manager to beat Liverpool this season.  The Reds are unbeaten this season having won 11 games and drawn just once to Manchester United. In fact, Liverpool's last defeat came in hand of Manchester City which was last season.  Since that defeat, Liverpool have gone to win 42 matches and drawn 6 with no defeat.  Hodgson who managed Liverpool from {2010-11} feels he has the antidote to neutralise Liverpool.  "We have to restrict the space their front three are good at using. We have to defend the wide areas", Hodgson said during his press conference.  "We have to make sure our defending around the penalty box is very good. They are a very energetic team, a high pressing culture that when the ball is lost they work very hard to win it back and we need to have composure to free ourselves from our pressure." Crystal Palace haven't beaten Liverpool in any compe...

Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp set to win another 'Coaching Award'

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has been nominated for UK Coaching 'Great Coaching Moment of the Year'.  Klopp will contest the award with England manager Gareth Southgate, Athletics coach John Blackie and Swin coach Mel Marshall.  The gaffe was able to make the shortlist after Liverpool turned around a 3-0 defeat to win Barcelona 4-0 at Anfield.  Funny enough, Klopp was busy talking to his coaching staff when Trent Alexander Arnold saw Divock Origi in hectares of space inside Barcelona's 12-yard box and cleverly passed the ball for him to score the fourth goal needed to knock Barcelona out.. If wins it, good but, he has to thank Arnold first and foremost.
