Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp believes youngster Jordon Ibe can have a bright future if he is prepared to work hard. The 19-year-old scored his first goal for the club as the Reds beat Rubin Kazan 1-0 to record their first European away victory in almost three years. After an encouraging start to his Anfield career, Ibe has been something of a peripheral figure this season, even under Klopp's predecessor Brendan Rodgers, who promoted him to the first team.
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho will be able to communicate with his backroom team during Saturday's stadium ban. Mourinho will watch the clash with Stoke in the team hotel after he was ordered not to attend as part of his latest FA punishment. But he could use his mobile phone to contact his coaches on the bench at the Britannia Stadium. And he is likely to get away with it because the FA will find it virtually impossible to police such communication.
DOMINIC KING IN KAZAN: They were becoming as ineffective away in Europe as a domestic plug, bad travellers who would only return home empty-handed. Liverpool had been without a win on the continent since a 1-0 success at Udinese in December 2012. They had lost four and scrambled two draws from six subsequent matches but now, after an arduous trip to Russia, that miserable sequence is at an end.
Eden Hazard, Neymar and Paul Pogba are among the five young stars that have taken the footballing world by storm, in the eyes of Cristiano Ronaldo.
Everton signed Romelu Lukaku from Chelsea for £28m in 2014 and the 22-year-old has enhanced his reputation with 44 goals for the club, including 16 while on loan at Goodison Park in 2013-14.
The Arsenal midfielder thought he had equalised in the Allianz Arena when he diverted Nacho Monreal's cross past Manuel Neuer on Wednesday night.
ADAM SHERGOLD AT WHITE HART LANE: At one time or another, there have been various Premier League clubs could claim to be the backbone of the England team.
Arsene Wenger is optimistic that Laurent Koscielny will be available for the derby against Tottenham. The Frenchman was a substitute for the game with Bayern Munich but did not make it onto the pitch.
UEFA are expected to move away from charging Manchester City after their fans booed before their clash with Sevilla last month. European football's governing body will meet on November 19.
Tottenham's Eric Dier has been called up to the senior England squad for the first time for the upcoming friendlies with Spain and France. Roy Hodgson has named a strong squad.
TOTTENHAM 2-1 ANDERLECHT - RIATH AL-SAMMARAI AT WHITE HART LANE: The Harry Kane revival gains pace and so do Tottenham. But what a tricky dilemma for Mauricio Pochettino, who has the benefit of a brilliant leading man and the intelligence to know he can only run this hard for so long. The recent numbers have been brilliant - his fifth goal in three games means that not only are Tottenham the form team in the Premier League, but also that they are back on a healthy course in Europe.
CELTIC 1-2 MOLDE - STEPHEN McGOWAN AT PARKHEAD: Manager of the month in Scotland. A manager of chaos in Europe. A fourth successive Europa League game without a win for Celtic brought no Ronny Roar at full-time.
Former Manchester United and West Ham maverick Ravel Morrison was given a chance to impress for Lazio against Rosenborg in the Europa League.
Defiant Ronny Deila insists he has no fear of being sacked by Celtic despite another wretched night in Europe. The Bhoys lost 2-1 at home to Norway's Molde.
Napoli made it four wins out of four in the Europa League by blowing away FC Midtjylland 5-0 to qualify from Group D with two games to spare.
Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino hailed his side's strength of character after Mousa Dembele's late strike sealed a 2-1 win over Anderlecht in the Europa League.
JEFF POWELL: By their own manager's admission, Arsenal's chances of going through to the knockout stages of the Champions League lie somewhere between slim and none.
Borussia Dortmund are into the Europa League's last 32 after cruising to a 4-0 victory over Azerbaijan's FK Qabala. Germany midfielder Marco Reus opened the scoring in the 28th minute, before Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang kept up his hot run of form to add a second on the stoke of half-time. Qabala's Sergey Zenjov scored an own goal to make it 3-0 on 67 minutes and Henrikh Mkhitaryan wrapped up the win with a thunderous shot almost immediately afterwards.
SAM CUNNINGHAM: John Ruddy has been close to the military his whole life, but it almost cost him his best friend. Had Lance Corporal Phil Wright been two feet closer to a grenade when it exploded, he would never have been best man at the Norwich keeper's wedding. The pair, who both come from military families, met at primary school and in their teenage years they planned to sign up for the Forces together.
West Ham manager Slaven Bilic says Andy Carroll can only end his three-year international exile if he starts showing consistency with the Hammers.

Nemanja Matic admits he is unsure what to expect when Chelsea face Stoke City without manager Jose Mourinho. The Portuguese boss will serve his one-match stadium ban this weekend.
INTERVIEW BY JACK GAUGHAN: Surely when sitting down with a Salford City right back the conversation sharply turns to Manchester United, the Class of '92 and the non-League club's famous owners? Not so with Elliot Kebbie. He is a United fan, but it takes an hour to mention Ryan Giggs, the Neville brothers, Paul Scholes or Nicky Butt. As he sits down with Sportsmail ahead of Salford's FA Cup first-round tie against Notts County, Kebbie has a remarkable story of his own to tell.
Luke Shaw's road to recovery is clearly on the right track after the Manchester United defender was spotted without crutches as he joined his team-mates at the club's Christmas party.
Fraser Forster could be back in action with Southampton before the new year, four months ahead of schedule. The goalkeeper has already started light training as he continues his recovery.
David Wagner has been confirmed as the new Huddersfield manager despite interest from Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool. Wagner replaces Chris Powell who was sacked this week.
Chris Ramsey and Chris Powell were sacked on a 'disheartening' day for black managers, according to Troy Townsend, a leading anti-racism campaigner.
Cristiano Ronaldo has credited his former captain Roy Keane with helping him develop when he was a young player at Manchester United, always screaming at him to 'pass the ball'.
Chelsea are set to escape UEFA sanctions for booing the Champions League anthem ahead of their clash against Dynamo Kiev. Blues fans were heard jeering as the anthem boomed out.
KIT HOLDEN: From the moment the match kicked off, Arsenal didn't stand a chance. They may have defended badly, they may have given certain players to much space, but this was Bayern at their blistering best. As teams as gifted and impressive as Borussia Dortmund and VfL Wolfsburg can attest, you don't beat Bayern when they play like this. You don't even compete with them.
Remi Garde has admitted he faces a big task repairing the damaged confidence of Aston Villa's beleaguered squad, but struck a defiant tone about the club's survival prospects. The new Villa manager insisted his lack of Premier League experience would not hamper his bid to re-energise a side on a run of seven successive defeats, pointing to his success with Lyon and playing experience in England. Garde sought advice from Arsene Wenger and Gerard Houllier before accepting the job and said Randy Lerner's enthusiasm during discussions convinced him to sign a three-and-a-half year contract.
Roy Keane has labelled Ashley Young 'an absolute disgrace' following the winger's diving antics in Manchester United's victory over CSKA Moscow.
Chelsea fans haven't always appreciated Willian since his £32million arrival from Anzhi but the Brazilian forward's form has been the only positive for Jose Mourinho's men this season.
Jose Mourinho has nothing to prove and is the man to lead Chelsea out of their slump, says the Portuguese boss's manager Jorge Mendes, adding there's no chance he will leave west London.
Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe wants to give Cherries fans something to smile about again by beating fellow strugglers Newcastle in the Premier League on Saturday.
Swansea manager Garry Monk has backed his side to come through a difficult spell when they travel to Norwich this weekend. The Swans have won just once in their last seven Premier League games.
Watford manager Quique Sanchez Flores has refused to rule out a move for Emmanuel Adebayor and hinted he would welcome the arrival of the former Tottenham striker.
Karim Benzema and Lyon midfielder Mathieu Valbuena have been left out of the France squad with both caught up in a sex tape blackmail scandal - but Hatem Ben Arfa has been called up.
Chelsea fans haven't always appreciated Willian since his £32million arrival from Anzhi but the Brazilian forward's form has been the only positive for Jose Mourinho's men this season. Many observers believed he could be one to make way for a new signing even after playing a sizable role in last season's success. This season, with so little to cheer elsewhere, it has been a different story.
Chelsea midfielder Willian has starred in a promotional campaign for Electronic Arts' latest installment of the Need for Speed video game series out this month. The 27-year-old teamed up with luxury car customisers Yiannimize to produce this exciting advert for the long-running racing simulator. In the clip, Willian takes control of a wrapped and personalised BMW M3, navigating it around an obstacle course using a PlayStation controller.
