Finally good news for the fans, at least in England.
BBC Sport has just shared this news: ''FA Cup final and World Snooker Championship on list of pilot events to test return of fans''
''The FA Cup final - potentially in front of 20,000 fans''

~snip


yeah, get back to normal, it would be good to have fans on the stadiums again, seems that this is already normal to just watch matches on television, and there is no audience on stands
FA cup is more suitable for fans, since it is as usual, on open football stadium, for Snooker, I am not sure that they will allow it to play in front of fans, will see in the end, maybe they will allow some symbolic numbers for indoor sports

What I especially did not expect was that Manchester United would climb to the 2nd place. Before the winter break they were not looking too well anyway. Have a very strong selection, but apparently that only became apparent later. It is a pity that De Beek's plays so little. Could have stayed better with Ajax. Would be nice if United managed to finish 2nd, but especially Leicester City is working on another dream season for them.

ya.ya.yo!

I also didn't have an expectation from Manchester Utd to have such a great season. Bruno Fernandes has a huge role on this very good run. If it weren't for his great contribution to the team (16 goals, 10 assists in 28 EPL games), they would be at a lower position in the table most probably. When it comes to Leicester, they have been really an awesome team in the last years and they continue to surprise me by their great performance in the league. Ranieri's success with the team was the defining moment and the start of awesome things for them.  Cheesy

If these announcements come true, it will finally be a return to real football, with the fans.
It’s really sad to watch football without fans in the stadium.
I hope that soon other countries will also allow the return of fans and that we will finally have a real football atmosphere in the stadiums.
Now it remains to wait for the FA Cup final and see if the fans will be able to enter the stadium.

Manchester City absolutely destroyed Fulham when it comes to performance. And they scored 3 goals in only 13 minutes which was worth watching. It is nice to see Aguero scoring a goal after a very long time also. Fulham got 0 shot on goal and they had only 3 tries which really shows how strong City were on the defense.

Man City have been confident on the ball and it is really hard for opponents to get ball away from them. They earlier used to make mistakes while rotating the ball but not much now. It is good to see that after having not the best start in this season now they have improved and now sit at the top of the table. Fulham were unlucky having City as their opponent in this round.

We have some pretty tight fixtures: Arsenal vs Spurs and Man Utd. vs West Ham (was excited to see Lingard performance but he is out for today's game).

It's such a pleasure to watch Manchester City playing on the pitch, Guardiola has always been and still is my fav team manager! These guys can really make a hell of a season if they are to win both Premier League and Champions League!
My attention today goes to the derby between Arsenal and Tottenham which I believe will be an exciting match worth to follow. It may end in a draw.

Manchester city players one more time show to the premier league fans how strong and fantastice they are...another 3 goals scored in just 45 and the most impresive thing was the defence because fulham player wasnt able to mad any shot on goal in the whole match

It is a soccer game bro, there is no guarantee that Chelsea will win even if Tuchel put Wenner/Giroud in the starting lineups. I cant even say that Leeds was able to read Tuchel's strategy, why? If Leeds  was able to read it then they should have better statistics. Chelsea dominated the game very well but they were unlucky to score goals.

It is true that there is no guaranteed win if Werner or Giroud play as a starter, but at least it makes the chances of scoring a goal much greater.
I also wouldn't blame Tuchel because Chelsea were only able to draw with Leeds, because Chelsea were just out of luck. Moreover, the Leeds
goalkeeper was also very good his performance,  made 9 saves in that match. even though Chelsea had made a lot of chances and controlled the game.
But sometimes luck doesn't always come.

What a fantastic finish by Leeds which unbelievable nobody was expecting in today match Chelsea will get exposed like that. I am totally disappointed from them and very hard to believe they could get failed against the weak side. Anyway what a boring day All matches getting shocking results.
I am disappointed either, all fans. what Tuchel did is a bad strategy have. he must change his mind to do next to put Wenner and Giroud as a starter not to blame slippery field or anything. Leeds can read Tuchel's strategy because he did it before.

Their defense is exactly what has been talked about all season long, they have always been a great attacking team, putting together some unbelievable football, but their defense always seem to let them down, but that has changed this season, Pep has finally gotten the solid defense he has always craved for, and that obviously makes them so difficult to beat and that's why they are top of the league.

City have now bounced back from their Derby day defeat to United with two straight victories (against Southampton & Fulham), scoring eight goals in the process, which definitely has brought back their confidence and just a couple more wins is left for them to be crowned champions, winning the quadruple is still very much a possibility for City.

Both team played attacking football while both side were also denied a goal by woodwork, I wouldn't questioned Tuchel formation because Kai Havertz was quite unlucky after wasting some glaring chances so also Pulisic and other players too, I gave  kudos to Leed Utd for proofing many soccer pundits and analyst wrong by playing a draw after predicting that they will be defeated by Chelsea infact they had their own scoring chances if scored would have turn the game around.

Everton got a really embarrasing result against Burnley in their home match today, 1-2. It was a big shock for me seeing Burnley got 2-0 ahead and it must have been the same for Everton too. Calvert-Lewin was able to answer to the second goal in 8 minutes. And I expected Everton to make a comeback and at least get one point. But they couldn't even manage to do it. After losing to Chelsea, they needed a win to pull themselves together but they got another devastating loss.

First game this saturday in the epl has ended in a 0 - 0 draw between leeds United and Chelsea. It as an uninspiring tie with neither of the team creating enough chances to score a goal or 2. Roberts went closer with his ball hitting the woodwork, while Harverts shot was saved on the other end. Neither of the teams deerves 3 points and the game ends in a draw.

Chelsea 0 - 0 Leeds
Chelsea have an important match to play at the UEFA champion league at home ground so drawing the match against Leeds utd would possibly keep them fit to tackle ATM next week Wednesday. Although Leeds struggle to have a three points didn't come in handy making the match to be defensive reason.
I agree with you but i think the result is not bad for chelsea...the most importan think is that the team keep playing well and still unbeaten in the premier league for the tenth match in row

So who else got screwed by Chelski today? =p


i watched the game and all i can say is this team desperately needs someone like Haaland or Lewa, you know someone who's a real threat in front of goal...chelsky create tons of chances, but man the lack of firepower is alarming...how they're still in the top 4 and RO16 of the CL is beyond me

Everton though, 60' min and they're 1-2 down...no one in the btctalk pool predicted a burnley win  Roll Eyes massive upset so far

If there is one thing I've learnt today after watching Leeds Chelsea is that the London team has a problem scoring goals but did not field a striker and this logic confuses me. Chelsea attempted so many scores but always failed, Tuchel should try to do something about it.
You're right, at least they still have Oliver Giroud. Maybe playing he will score a goal. But at least Tuchel hasn't lost in 12 matches with Chelsea at this time. Looking at the match I saw the two club's Chelsea and Leeds United goalkeepers both doing well, they made some great saves. Mendy saves the goal from four kicks on target. Chelsea had eight raw shots on target by Illan Meslie.

I have always liked the football that Chelsea shows because of the way they define a game, in fact what happened is very normal in football teams, sometimes we do not take it into account but luck plays a fundamental role in everything, Shots on goal can be many, sometimes it happens that the other team arrives once and scores the goal and takes the victory, I think it was not Chelsea's day but I trust that for the next game we will see it shine.

Burnley of all teams scoring more than a goal, and only first half eh?

Quite a lot of gamblers I'm sure, but the fans I'm pretty sure will be licking their lips after this result will be the West Ham fans, again Chelsea have given them some bit of hope to get back into fourth place UCL spot, currently on 48 points and three points behind Chelsea with two games in hand, with the sort of form they have shown of late, I think they'll be heading back to fourth place after playing those two outstanding games.

Everything to play for for a lot, a lot of teams. Can't remember a season quite like this, defending champions losing this many times in a row. Chelski having fearsome firepower and not scoring easily. And the golden boot contenders still sitting outside of Champions League spots!

the draw is a good result for both team, the rivalry between Chelsea and Leeds United continues. Chelsea had some decent opportunity to kill off the game in the first half but were not clinical enough in front of the goal post. Pulisic is becoming a liability, he was making the wrong decisions, holding on to the ball for long, and not being able to create a decent chances

Yeah, there was a reason he didn't end up at Liverpool I guess, along with Havert, Werner. Three bullets dodged? Or simply not the right price and fit and desire? Anyway, plenty of time for Tuchel to squeeze more out of them, no problem.
