No timeline on Vincent Kompany return from injury - Pep Guardiola

Kevin De Bruyne says he's more interested in winning trophies with Manchester City than chasing after personal accolades.

        Kevin De Bruyne tells ESPN that for the moment the Manchester clubs are ahead in the title race but it's too early to count the others out. MANCHESTER -- Pep Guardiola does not know when Vincent Kompany will be back fit, with the Manchester City captain definitely ruled out of Saturday's game against Burnley on Saturday.

The defender played City's first three matches of the season but has not played since picking up a calf strain playing in a World Cup qualifier for Belgium on Aug. 31.
Kompany, 31, has been troubled by persistent muscle injuries in the past few seasons, but Guardiola had hoped he would make a quick return from his latest...

        Jason Dasey and John Wilkinson mull over the implications should the S.League take a one-year break in 2018. Home United kept up their faint hopes of catching Albirex Niigata (S) in the S.League title race after defeating Balestier Khalsa 2-0 in Friday night's televised game at Jalan Besar Stadium.

A quick-fire Stipe Plazibat double in the first half was enough for the Protectors to cut the gap between them and Albirex to 10 points, with still two games in hand.
The goals meant Plazibat is firmly in the driving seat to win the Golden Boot with 23 league goals -- five more than Albirex's Tsubasa Sano.

Liverpool hope history on their side to extend streak against Tottenham

Jurgen Klopp revels in Liverpool's seven-goal output at Maribor, a club record for a European away match.

        Relive the best moments from all of Tuesday's action during Matchday 3 of the UEFA Champions League.

Liverpool face Tottenham on Sunday, and both clubs will be under the microscope for different reasons.
The Reds haven't had such a great time of it in recent Premier League weeks, and if they drop more points, the gap between themselves and the top spot will become insurmountable.
