Good news for NewcastleCallum Wilson is close to making his first appearance of the season. They face West Ham on Monday night.
“He's doing well and we expect him to be able to train with the group today,” Howe was quoted as saying by the PA news agency. “Let's see if he's good enough to play for West Ham. He could play, but first he needs to get through the next few days of training. The most important thing is that Callum is back It means that when I come back, I'm in a good position to contribute and make a difference.”
Wilson has been injury-prone, but adds important depth up front and has a very solid scoring record. He is just shy of 100 Premier League goals.
This is a great interview with Nottingham Forest's Ryan Yates by Ben Fisher. I was particularly fascinated by this part:
When I think of you and a hotel room, what do you think of?I bought half a chicken, a bag of rice, and some spinach from Tesco. I couldn't boil the broccoli because I only had a kettle. I poured some water into the bag of spinach and squeezed it. It turned out to be wilted spinach. God, those were the days. I remember thinking, “It'll all be worth it.”
Who are the slot favorites for the champions led by manager Klopp? Andy Hunter considers it.
It's worth remembering how ridiculous Klopp's team were. They won 26 of their first 27 league games of the season, with the outlier being a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford.
Suzanne Luck and Tom Garry were watching last night's WCL match. Manchester City and Arsenal won.
Last night's news: Manchester City have announced a new two-year contract with Josep Guardiola. Here's what he had to say:
To be honest, this is what I thought [season] It should be the last. However, given the issues we've had over the last month, we didn't feel it was the right time to quit.
I didn't want to let the club down. It's simple, but I felt like I couldn't leave right now. Don't ask me why. The four losses may have been the reason why he felt unable to quit.
Arne Slot provides injury update Ahead of the match between Liverpool and Southampton.
virgil [van Dijk] It's okay, he's training with us today. torrent [Alexander-Arnold] He hasn't trained with us yet, but he's getting there so we're hoping he'll be back with us soon. harvey [Elliott] We'll be training together again, so that's a positive thing. He's been out for a number of weeks, but he's back on the training ground with the team, so that's a positive for him.
[Diogo] Jota is still apart from the group, as is Federico. [Chiesa] We expect everyone to be back in the next few weeks from now, probably in today's exercise, who will be back in session. The last part of recovery is always the hardest part, so let's wait and see. But Virgil is totally fine.
Alisson is back in training but will not play on Sunday, Slott added.

And then to the actual soccer… Here's what to watch out for this weekend:
A more serious problem is This vote is a blow to Manchester City. Below is Paul MacInnes' report for Thursday.
City has previously taken the league to arbitration over the APT rule and has expressed opposition to the rule change. They have urged clubs for support, including two league-wide letters from chief legal officer Simon Cliffe questioning the legality of the plans. The league has been negotiating with the club for weeks over their concerns and cited independent legal analysis from KC Daniel Jowell to support its claims.
