If Arsenal really wants to qualify for the CL, you know who really needs to be replaced. Arsene Wenger. The EPL just got way tougher with all those great managers in one league.
The Gunners should get Tuchel before Bayern gets him first.
In my opinion it's not Arsene Wenger who is the problem, he is tactically good but the problem is the way transfers are done at the club. They really don't want to spend the necessary money to make the club great again, A club like Arsenal needs are least five high profile players playing not only two. Lol. How long has it been since Arsense Wenger has won an EPL title? It has been to damn long imo. Maybe he isn't totally the problem, but he sure is part of it. Even Ian Wright comments that there's a need for a managerial chance at his former club. Wenger is a great trainer but I think (except for Ferguson) that every team sooner or later must change coaches to give new ideas and why a coach's charisma decreases after so many years in the same team. last year it seemed he could leave, but unfortunately for gunners fans, Wenger wants to stay alive in Arsenal and will hardly be replaced. |

El Loco Bielsa coach of Lille, could soon end his experience in Lille.
Players are in revolt and are against his training methods and tactics.
Currently Lille is in the penultimate position.
At this point it is very likely that Bielsa will be exonerated.

San Antonio (4 of 4 wins) and Los Angeles Clippers (3 of 3 wins) are the only unbeaten teams up to this point.
The Western Conference as predictions will be really competitive and balanced, in fact, in addition to the big favorite Golden State there are San Antonio, Los Angeles Clipper, Houston and Oklahoma who can arrive at the conference finals.

this week the 3 most interesting matches are:
At. Madrid vs Villareal, Ath. Bilbao vs Barcelona and Sevilla vs Leganes.
Big season start for the Leganes who has suffered only 3 goals (best defense like Barcelona) and is fifth in the standings.
easy matches instead for Valencia against Alaves and Real Madrid against Girona and they can thus take advantage of this favorable turn.

this week there is the big match Ac Milan vs Juventus!
For AC Milan, perhaps it is already the last chance to fight back for useful places for the champion's league.
A defeat would be devastating and probably his coach Montella would be exonerated.
easy matches for other top teams:
Napoli at home against Sassuolo, Roma at home against Bologna, Inter against Verona, Lazio vs. Benevento.
I expect 4 easy wins for these teams.

Warning signs are there for Raikonnen, as Briatore released a statement that they couldn't beat Mercedes with the Finn. I think he'll be leaving Ferrari as soon as possible and could be replaced by a more suitable driver to partner with Vettel. Will we see the other Finn take the vacant drive then?  Anyway here's the time table for this weekend's race. 2017 Mexican GP Time TableAll times are local (Mexico City is GMT -6) Thursday 26 October11:00 – 12:00: FIA press conference Friday 27 October10:00 – 11:30: First free practice 14:00 – 15:30: Second free practice 16:00 – 17:00: FIA press conference Saturday 28 October10:00 – 11:00: Third free practice 13:00 – 14:00: Qualifying 14:00: FIA post-qualifying press conference Sunday 29 October13:00 – 15:00: Mexican Grand Prix 15:00: FIA post-race press conference Mexican GP InfoNo of Laps: 71 Race Distance: 305.354 Lap Record: Nico Rosberg – 1:20.521 2016 Winner: Lewis Hamilton Most likely in this Gp Hamilton will win its third world championship in 4 years. Hamilton will be champion if: -Hamilton comes in fifth place or better -Vettel comes in third place or worse -if Vettel comes in second place, and Hamilton gets in ninth position or better -Vettel comes in third place or worse - |

the latest rumors say that Liverpool would accept 150M bid for Coutinho and that in January it will be a new Barcelona player!
Liverpool would have an incredible plus value having bought Coutinho for about 15M

Ugly and clamorous elimination for Nantes in the coupe de la ligue against Tours (last ranked in Ligue 2 with only 2 points scored after 12 matches!).
Probably Ranieri has chosen to be eliminated to focus on Ligue 1 and try to reach at least the Europa League.
Currently Nantes is third in Ligue 1, which is even the champion's league playoffs

I do not think that in the near future the English team will win the Champions League. While there are teams like Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, English clubs will be difficult to win the UEFA Champions Cup.
Precisely now the England team is having a great chance to win the Champins League. All the English teams are currently topping their respective standings which means all England teams have a great chance to qualify for the next round. I'm sure this season there will be a British team that goes very far even to the finals. 5 english teams currently playing for this competition and should be at least 1 team goes to the final matches but in champion league sometimes we will find surprising results and very hard to predicted which team will stepped smoothly to the final matches but as long as english teams able to maintain their performance i think one of them will play at the final matches UCL this season a lot of teams from the Premier League who contribute to this European class competition, too far to talk that one of the teams from the Premier League will be in UCL final match, the most realistic for now is they should be sure to qualify for the round of 16 big in this competition because with the passage to this round then they can keep the chance to be able to compete in the final match UCL. with 5 English teams in the top 16 it is very likely that at least 1 team will be in the semifinals. Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United also have many talented players, 3 top coaches (Count, Guardiola, Mourinho), and I think they have great chances to get to at least the semifinals. |

Today 3 unexpected results in Copa de Rey: Formentera vs Ath.Bilbao draw at quote@5.00Elche vs At.Madrid at quote@6.00but especially the defeat of Villarreal against Ponferradina(the last classified in segunda division!) quoted at@15.00 it is really clamorous! |

I'm surprised that Tottenham lost against West Ham, especially because the Spurs dominated the match in the first half. But to be fair, West Ham deserved the win, they played really well in the second half and managed to scored 3 goals in less than 15 min, they needed this win.
I feel bad for Tottenham fans, i bet they were excited to see Tottenham doing well in all competitions. This is not the performance you want to see from a team that wants to accomplish big things this season.
Yes, this defeat and elimination is clamorous! in 2017, considering all the competitions, Tottenham at home had lost only one time against Chelsea! On 2-0 they certainly lowered the concentration level and have suffered this loud comeback! Perhaps for Tottenham this elimination can be positive because they can focus on other competitions. |

continue to win and dominate the top 5 teams(Napoli,Inter,Juventus,Lazio,Roma) in the standings.
finally a convincing victory for AC Milan for 4-1 against Chievo but the 4th place for qualifying to the champion's league is 9 points away!
Record in series A:
Juventus equal the record of 31 goals in the first 10 matches of the season.
Benevento has made 10 defeats of 10, never one team has been worse in Serie A

A great opportunity this week for Roger Federer in the home tournament in Basel to reduce the gap from Nadal.
This tournament gives 500 points and if Federer wins it will reduce its gap from first place in the ranking atp to 1460 points.
Federer has 1 easy draw to the semifinals where he should find Goffin

In this beginning of the season continue the surprises:
2 defeats of 3 for the favorite Golden State, Boston and Oklahoma!
Especially Golden State seems nervous with S.Curry who for the first time in his career was expelled in regular season.
It is a great start to the season instead for Houston, which is the only team to have won 3 games on 3.

Manchester City this year seems unstoppable and is, after the bad Manchester United defeat against Huddesfield, now the big favorite for winning the Premier League.
The Manchester.City may run away next week because there is Manchester United vs Tottenham which can end with a draw.
A possible +7 after 10 matches would already be a good advantage.
