Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola believes local rivals Manchester United can still challenge for a Champions League qualification spot this season but added that Jose Mourinho’s side are a “long distance” off the title pace. United are currently nine points off fourth-placed City in the Premier League table following Sunday’s 1-1 draw at Everton, which maintained the club’s worst ever start to a Premier League campaign. Mourinho’s side are 13 points behind leaders Chelsea, who won 3-1 at City on Saturday to avoid being overtaken at the top by their hosts. Guardiola said that, while he thought resurrecting their title…
France coach Didier Deschamps says Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba will not win the Ballon d’Or unless he produces a world-class tournament display. France international Pogba, 23, became the world’s most expensive footballer when he moved from Juventus to United for €105 million (£89.3m) in the summer. However, with forwards Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo having won the award every year since Brazilian attacking midfielder Kaka’s success in 2007, Deschamps says Pogba’s role makes him an unlikely candidate. Fabio Cannavaro, who won the Ballon d’Or after Italy’s World Cup success in 2006, is the only defensive player to claim the…

So much for the idea that Real Madrid are going to run away with La Liga. They’re not — not yet, anyway. And even a win at the Camp Nou and going nine points clear would not have meant locking up the title just yet. But what the 1-1 draw showed (Sergio Ramos’ late goal notwithstanding) is that Real Madrid are very much a team, a compact unit more than capable of going into the Camp Nou and dominating, physically and tactically. That was the case in the first half, where Zinedine Zidane’s midfield, led by the incomparable Luka Modric,…
Manchester United’s hierarchy believe the football being served up by manager Jose Mourinho is “much better than last year,” a source close to the club has said. Mourinho has been working on implementing a style that is different to the one seen under his predecessor Louis van Gaal. That is one of the requirements of Mourinho’s job — not just results — and he is aiming to lay down long-term foundations with that style. United suffered another disappointing league draw in their most recent match — 1-1 at Everton on Sunday — leading to Mourinho complaining about people focusing on…

BVB…
Jose Mourinho claimed he is being judged unfairly by critics after Manchester United conceded a late Leighton Baines penalty in a damaging 1-1 draw at Everton. Mourinho’s team have won just twice in the league since the end of August, a run which has featured numerous draws and has derailed United’s hopes of winning a title in their manager’s debut season at Old Trafford. However, Mourinho, who earned a reputation for not always winning in the most attractive style when in charge of Chelsea, insists his side is playing well and that he is being held to a double standard.…

Atletico Madrid endured a frustrating 0-0 draw with Espanyol at the Vicente Calderon on a miserably, rainy Saturday night. It was a case of “one of those days” for Atletico. They dominated possession, huffed and puffed, but ultimately could not blow the house down and in the end were indebted to keeper Jan Oblak to ensure that they took anything from the game. They remain in fourth, nine points behind table toppers Real Madrid. Jan Oblak made two brilliant saves and kept a fourth consecutive clean sheet. Apart from that there is very little consolation that Diego Simeone and team…
