Looking to find a route into the top-half of the Premier League table and make another statement on Tuesday night, Newcastle will welcome Tottenham to St. James' Park. Making an immediate return to winning ways over the weekend thanks to an empathic 4-1 romp in the blue half of Merseyside, Eddie Howe's men will be seeking a repeat performance as they look to get their European charge back on track.

The mood was really negative. It's not just that they changed the coach. We also had this election at the very beginning, so everybody was nervous about that. With the election, it can also influence the staff and players, so, for me, it was a completely new experience. The election day was also a game for us, so it was pretty hard to be honest. But now everything has settled down, we have a good team, and we have found our rhythm.

Germany now have an indication of who they might play at next year's FIFA World Cup. FIFA have confirmed the official draw pots ahead of next week's draw on December 5th. Luckily for Germany, their last November window's string of wins was enough to put Germany up to 9th in the FIFA World Rankings, which was just enough to seal the last spot in Pot 1.

We have to maintain the unity we have, with the necessary self-criticism. We're eager to win away from home, something that has affected us a lot in this schedule. A season has different phases. There were times, especially at the beginning, when we were consistent.

Getting November underway with consecutive 4-0 romps against Millwall and Portsmouth, Monday's hosts will be desperate to lay down another marker. Likewise, last seen in front of their own supporters storming their way to a 4-1 victory against Norwich, Davies' side have remarkably won all of their previous three Championship showdowns at St. Andrew's by an aggregate score of 12-1. In fact, the Blues have recorded a quartet of strikes in all of those four consecutive home wins.

He asked me about Moi's red card. It's a red card, but why was Bentancur's against Reece not a red card when we were at Spurs away? As a manager, we struggle to understand why they judge in different way. Moi's is red card, yes. Bentancur's is a red card, yes. Why they don't give him a red card? We struggle to understand.

Martinez had come under fire after scoring just once in his last six league games coming into the match against Pisa, but he hit back at those critics, much to the delight of Chivu. "We know the importance of all our players, especially our captain," Chivu told DAZN Italia. "There might be people outside who doubt him, but we never have. "It is because we know how much he cares and how much he brings to this team."

Lionel Messi will play for another trophy. Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets clearly aren't ready to begin their retirements, either. Tadeo Allande scored three goals Alba and Busquets, a pair of longtime Messi teammates who will retire when this season ends, had the assists on his first two and Inter Miami topped New York City FC 5-1 on Saturday night for the Eastern Conference title and a berth in the MLS Cup final.

Liverpool are set to table a 52.5m (60m euros) bid for Real Madrid's French midfielder Eduardo Camavinga, 23. (Caughtoffside), external Everton will not entertain any offers for Senegal winger Iliman Ndiaye, 25, and have no intention of selling him to city rivals Liverpool. (Teamtalk), external Manchester City are considering triggering the 65m release clause in the contract of Bournemouth and Ghana forward Antoine Semenyo, 25, in January.

David Wycherley, from Everton Fans' Forum, said "his story teaches us a lesson that we can't ignore". "Hopefully [the bench] will remind people to slow down, to check in with each other and to talk and just ask that extra question about how people are getting on in life. "But also to listen as well. Sometimes it's just as important to be that listening ear for the people around you."

Napoli beat Roma 1-0 to move level on points with AC Milan at the top of a very tight Serie A table. David Neres' goal was the difference for the defending champions against Roma, who are just a point off the top in fourth place. Milan, who defeated Lazio 1-0 on Saturday, are on 28 points, ahead of Napoli on goal difference, with Roma one point behind in fourth spot level with third-placed Inter Milan.

There's no such thing as perfection. Even when we're doing well, we always want more - that will remain the case. I handle praise the same way I handle criticism. I'm focusing on the next game. We have a good feeling at the club, also in terms of the atmosphere. I want to do my job, motivate the boys, and make sure they make the right decisions. Anything can happen in a game, but I'm confident that we can always be successful,

Senegalese forward Iliman Ndiaye is becoming one of the hottest properties in European football following his explosive start to the season. According to a report from Footmercato, Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, and Liverpool have all made preliminary contact to express their interest in the 25-year-old, who has been in scintillating form since the start of the campaign. Ndiaye has registered four goals and one assist in 12 appearances, playing a pivotal role

We won a match we had to win, and now comes a very tough one, a difficult one, against an opponent we know very well and who has enormous potential, even more so with the return of Pedri and Raphinha. We'll face a very tough opponent. Football is always about the present, the next match, the moment you face whoever you face.

Antonio Conte's side went level on points with leaders AC Milan, with Neres' first-half strike enough to secure the win at Stadio Olimpico. Napoli went close to breaking the deadlock in the 18th minute, when Giovanni Di Lorenzo sent a volley into the side-netting. However, the visitors did strike first on 36 minutes. Neres played a one-two with Rasmus Hojlund and accelerated in behind the defence, before slotting past Mile Svilar.

It was a tough job, we knew that, and the team did really well from the very first minute. In the first half, we could have done a little better with our two strikers. We weren't aggressive enough for me. Then, in the second half, we upped it. Here at Leverkusen, you have to control the game so well. That's a compliment to us, I like that, and that's the kind of football we need.
