He will win it if he enter somewhere like Barca or Real Madrid. That PSG is just a joke

Earthquake3:
The guy will win multiple Ballond'or, nobody else is interested in that award

Liverpool can be unpredictable

morningsta:
Liverpool might not even win all their remaining games. I hope I am wrong sha

it was very poor bro. The quality of Man Utd has gone really bad.

bartz025:
Bro!!! you call that poor display uhmmm

Liverpool were sent back to the 2nd position of the Premier League table as Manchester City claimed the derby spoils at Old Trafford. Jurgen Klopp had doubted whether Manchester United had it in them to upset City, and he wasn’t proven wrong as City cut through United like a hot knife through butter.
The fate of the Premier League rests on the hands of current champions City, as Guardiola’s men can clinch the title if they win all three of their remaining games. Which will make Liverpool fans have a hard time sleeping.

City’s trip to Old Trafford has long been viewed as the most likely to give Liverpool the headway but they easily scaled through. Reds fans will inevitably throw in the towel after events at Old Trafford. But, the Premier League is full of surprises.

The next back to back Ballon D'or winner

The young man is going places.

Manchester United’s David De Gea has been sluggish for the past months.
He hasn’t been the same since the World Cup where he made just one save from seven shots on goal. Against Portugal, Cristiano Ronaldo had three shots at de Gea – and scored with all of them, with one being an error on his path.

United have endured seven defeats in nine matches since the miracle against PSG in Paris which followed the permanent Appointment of Ole Gunner.

Manchester United’s quality has since been woeful as they recently lost 4-0 to Everton, 2-0 to Wolves and 4-0 on aggregate to Barcelona, with more and more banter coming to towards the Spanish keeper

Mbappe becomes the first Ligue 1 player to score 30 goals in a league season since Jean-Pierre Papin did in the 1989-90 campaign

Papin was the last man to achieve that feat 29 years ago and he considers Mbappe to be the star attraction at Parc des Princes

In Europe, only Lionel Messi is ahead of him in the Golden Boot race, as the Argentine has 33 goals and the Frenchman has 30. As one of the youngest stars at the top of world football, Mbappe's value is the highest of all current players,

They value him at 216 million euros, ahead of Harry Kane (197m euros), Neymar (197m euros), Mohamed Salah (173m euros) and Lionel Messi (170m euros).

Cristiano Ronaldo has set the record as the first player to win the league in three top European sides.


Ronaldo has won the Premier League with Manchester United, La Liga with Real Madrid and Serie A with Juventus.



The Italian side won their eighth consecutive Serie A titles following a 2-1 win against Fiorentina. Juventus now boasts of 35 Scudettos, far ahead of closest challengers AC Milan who have 18

The 34-year-old had previously won three Premier league titles with Manchester United in the 2006-07, 2007-08 and 2008-09 campaigns.


Ronaldo and Rio Ferdinand at Manchester United
He also won two La Liga titles with Real Madrid during the 2011-12 with Jose Mourinho and 2016-17 with Zinedine Zidane.

The win against Fiorentina is Ronaldo’s first Serie A title in his first season with the club as they came back strongly after their Champions League quarter-final exit to Ajax last week.

There have been lots of rumours surrounding Ronaldo’s continuous stay at Juventus, after yesterday’s victory he broke the silence on the matter.

“I am staying at Juve, 1,000 per cent,” Ronaldo told Sky Spors Italy.

“In my opinion, it was a very good first season and I adapted well. We won the Scudetto and the Italian Super Cup, which is certainly not easy to achieve.”

“After winning the league in England and Spain, now I can say I’ve won it in Italy too. It was important to me and I’m very happy.”

RONALDO
Only two men have won the top-flight title in England, Italy and Spain.

José Mourinho (manager) and Cristiano Ronaldo (footballer).

Which manager or player will follow suit?

The Dutch league leaders Ajax defeat Juventus in a 2-1 away win to give them a spot in the Semis. The underdogs have done the unbelievable, taking out two titans; Real Madrid and Juventus.

It would be a hard pill to swallow for CR7 after he left Real Madrid to join Juventus to prove a point. His ex-team and his present team were knocked out by the same dutch side.


Juventus get Knocked out of the Champions League
Ronaldo scored the opener with a header making it his 98th career header– quite impressive.

The 19-year-old Captain De ligt scored the winner for Ajax. The Dutch side played their hearts out with 13 shots with 4 on target. They also had a cancelled goal which was ruled off as an offside.


This is the first time Ronaldo gets disqualified at the Quarterfinal since 2010. Juventus, on the other hand, have not been knocked out by a team outside Europe’s top 5 leagues since the 1981-82 season.

The young dutch boys seem to have ended many things. They face the winner of Tottenham- Liverpool in the semis

JUVENTUS WILL BEAT BARCA!!!!!!!!

Raydos:
What if it happens to be Barça Vs Juventus in the final? ??



So you mean juventus will beat Barça ?? Hahahah

As the Premier League Season reaches a close, the heat is intensifying as to who will emerge in the top four positions. Calculating it arithmetically, there are only two slots left for the top four spots as Liverpool and Manchester City are well above the last four clubs in the top six. The big question is, which teams will remain in the top four spots and qualify for the Champions League.

www.scot.com.ng

Courage and belief kept Jurgen Klopp’s side in the title race for weeks as they’ve dug deep to find a way to win when not at their best, but on this occasion it was simply breathtaking brilliance that got the job done.

‘We can close the slipping book now!’

klopp hails Liverpool

Liverpool didn’t allow Chelsea crash the party this time as the class of 2018/19 proved they are a different animal, there’s inspiration and perspiration in equal measures, resilience, balance, maturity, and composure in abundance

A first home win over Chelsea for seven years was secured courtesy of a devastating burst early in the second half. Jordan Henderson who was forced to sit out on the tie 5years ago was immense as his cross laid it on the plate for Mane’s opener, and then Mohammed Salah took Centre stage with a stunning strike against his former team from 25yards out, putting the game out of the reach for the Blues

The roars were ear-splitting and celebrations were wild as the Kopites paid homage to their Egyptian King who is now joint highest goal scored in the Premier League alongside Aguero. Now only 4 teams sit between Liverpool and collecting 97points, but there’s still the nightmare scenario when it won’t be enough, with City breathing down their neck


City have the tougher assignments remaining with Tottenham at home next Saturday and a trip to Old Trafford the following Wednesday. Pep Guardiola must be sick of the sight of Liverpool. They have refused to go quietly and he will know that one stumble now is likely to cost them the title.

But y he no do am last season against Liverpool

It will shock u guys

true sha.. But you can't compare tottenham to liverpool

the way i believe Guardiola. That man is a football genius. And tottenham never go past quarter finals

babakb:
I really wish Spurs could prove you wrong but i know spurs will always fuvk up, Pep will thrash them on Wednesday.

https://scot.com.ng/10-ex-footballers-that-went-on-to-become-coaches/
Read that post and see Guardiola's stats. That man is unbelievable

babakb:
Nope, Juve vs Ajax winner will play Spurs vs Man city winner

Mancity vs Juventus— semis

Guardiola will shock Tottenham in the second leg

11. Chelsea- (up 3)
The blues are becoming a resurgent team under Maurizio Sarri as we head into the last quarter of the season, a brilliant display from Star man – Eden Hazard over the week and a grind and grit 0-1 away win at Slavia Prague in the Europa League just about pushes them into the top 11

10. Dortmund – ( down 5)
This has been a really torrid period for Borussia Dortmund and this disgruntled period was summed up with the 5-0 trashing away at the Allianz Arena

09 PSG- (-)
The 2-2 draw against Strasbourg was highlighted by the miss of the season from Eric Maxim Choupo Moting. Although he got a goal for his side. But the miss would forever hunt him as a win would have secured the Ligue1 title for the Parisien army

08 Tottenham (Up 2)
The lily-white have taken a 1-0 lead heading into the second leg of their quarter-final tie against Manchester City and that’s all thanks to the tactical genius of Mauricio Pochettino and of course Hugo Lloris’ safe hands

07 Arsenal – (-)
The gunners pecked out the churny feathers of Carlo Ancelotti’s Napoli at the Emirates thanks to starman Aaron Ramsey, it’s going to be a bitter pill for the gunners to swallow given that the midfield engine would be heading to Turin this summer. And for a frankly ridiculous amount of €0. Bad business from the gunners

06 Bayern – (up 2)
Bayern may well be out of Europe’s elite competition, but Nico Kovac’s men have taken the Bundesliga by storm by putting in a solid 5-0 performance against this seasons Hollywood boys to show that they’re still the top dogs in Germany.

05 Ajax – (up 7)
Ajax have had a meteoric rise up the table, they’ve been a sight to behold of late, being able to knock out the defending champions in Real Madrid, and holding strong UCL contenders Juventus to a 1-1 draw at the Johan Cruyff Arena. Even if they get knocked out by Juventus in the second leg, they’re clearly going to bow out as one of the most entertaining teams this term.

04 Juventus – (-)
Even though they were largely dominated in the first leg of their UCL quarterfinal tie with Ajax. They were without Giorgio Chiellini who’s arguably the bedrock of the Juventus defense and conceded just one goal whilst scoring a potentially important away goal thanks to no other than the talismanic Cristiano Ronaldo who’s scored 4 goals in his last 2 UCL games. Not a bad performance at all.

03 City – ( Down 2)
Finally, City lose their number one spot, albeit a questionable team performance and team selection from Pep Guardiola in their crunch UCL tie against Tottenham. Well, he is a tactical genius, we can only wait to see his next throw of the dice.
