Jan 31 (Reuters) - Latest news and highlights from Europe's top football leagues on transfer deadline day (all times GMT): 22:51 Premier League Aston Villa brought in Spanish forward Borja Baston from Championship (second-tier) club Swansea City on a free transfer. UNITED BRING IGHALO IN ON LOAN Manchester United have agreed a deal to sign former Watford forward Odion Ighalo on loan from Chinese club Shanghai Shenhua, Sky Sports reported on Friday.
It looked like Joelinton’s towering header, which clattered off the bar with Kepa beaten, would be the closest to a goal. But then Allan Saint-Maximin crossed, Hayden headed through Kepa and St James’ Park erupted. TALKING POINT – Why can’t Chelsea break down deep-lying defences? It’s been the same story for Chelsea all season – when teams sit deep, they struggle to create chances.
Interim head coach Hayden Mullins says he would "love" to be appointed as the Hornets manager on a permanent basis. Under-23 coach Mullins, 40, was put in temporary charge on Monday following the sacking of Quique Sanchez Flores. He led the Premier League's bottom club in their 2-0 defeat by Leicester on Wednesday and says he will still be in charge for Saturday's game against Crystal Palace "as far as I know".
The north London side are currently 11th in the table, 10 points off Chelsea ahead of tonight’s clash with West Ham. The Swede has overseen a draw with Norwich and a dismal defeat to Brighton since taking over from Unai Emery at the Emirates, but still refuses to rule out Champions League qualification.
Despite that ban, there were still plenty of Milan-based Napoli supporters inside to celebrate the winner from Ruiz. The midfielder played an elegant one-two on the edge of the box, and then bent a left-footed strike around Daniele Padelli and into the top corner. Eriksen and Sanchez were introduced as Inter tried to respond, with on-loan Manchester United forward Sanchez failing to get a shot away when well placed and Romelu Lukaku, another former Premier League striker, seeing a scrambled effort well saved.
Germany playmaker Ozil kicked his gloves in frustration after being withdrawn in the 59th minute of Arsenal's 3-0 defeat at the Emirates Stadium. Video - 'Ozil should be annoyed' - Ljungberg00:47 It is not the first time an Arsenal player has been involved in a controversy after being taken off at the Emirates Stadium this season.
Unlike Brest 2, Energetik 2 managed to win two games in the league this season and also 2 draws from the 8 games they have played so they have a record of 2-2-4 and last round came their second win totally unexpected away from home at Slutsk 2 as they won the game with 3-0 with odds being pretty high on the day for them to win the game, but just like the big team is in the top places in the first league level the reserve side has also gotten better.
That being said, things are tight in this section of the table. Defeat this weekend could send them plummeting into the bottom half of the table, but as they look back on a five match unbeaten streak they will feel quietly confident about their chances on Sunday. The Blades have lost just three of their 12 league games so far, and they managed a win over Arsenal just over a month ago.
