Nigel Clough on what dad, Brian, would have told him after Burton Albion’s 9-0 defeat to Manchester City
Nigel Clough is well aware the game is over as League One Burton Albion prepare to host Manchester City in the second leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final.Instead of planning for a miraculous giant-killing, the manager has told his players to just enjoy 90 minutes against one of the best teams in the world.3Pep Guardiolas men were utterly ruthless as they thumped Burton 9-0 in the first leg a fortnight ago.Clough knows his side have no chance over overturning such a deficit when they welcome the reigning Premier League champions to the Pirelli Stadium on Wednesday.But he has told the team and supporters to revel in the game, admitting they may never reach a major cup semi-final again.Speaking to talkSPORT host Jim White, the Brewers boss said: The game is over, so were going to enjoy it.I dont think well ever get to another League Cup semi-final again, so were going to enjoy it.Manchester City are coming to town, one of the best teams in the world, and weve just to enjoy it for what it is. I just want the players to go out an enjoy it.3Were more concerned about Bradford at home on Saturday, thats our priority.All the supporters, were all realistic here. The gulf between the two clubs is absolutely massive.Clough also admitted he would have received no sympathy from his great, late father, Brian, following his sides first-leg mauling.Asked what Clough Snr would have told him after the game if he were still here today, Nigel replied: First of all he would have said, how can you concede nine?!3Although I would have reminded him that when he was at Brighton, Bristol Rovers beat them 8-2 in the cup – so Id possibly remind him of that!Even the best have their off days and concede a few too many at times.

Manchester United transfer news: Former Liverpool star Philippe Coutinho wants move to Old Trafford
Former Liverpool star Philippe Coutinho could be on his way to Manchester United this summer from Barcelona.The Brazilian playmaker, 26, swapped Merseyside for Catalonia in January 2018, but the move has not worked out.4Now, according to the Mirror, Coutinho has informed a number of Spanish players in the United squad that he wants to resurrect his career in Manchester with a 100million deal mooted.Since joining Barcelona fourteen months ago, Coutinho has played 60 games and scored 18 goals – not a bad return for a midfielder.However, most of his contributions came during a run of good form towards the end of last season, whereas he has struggled recently – only completing 90 minutes twice since October, and receiving jeers from his own fans against Rayo Vallecano on Saturday. The potential deal will leave Liverpool fans furious.Nicknamed ‘The Magician’ by Kopites, Coutinho arrived on Merseyside in 2013 for 8.5million and left five years later for 142 million – the third most expensive transfer of all time.Some Liverpool fans may hope that their club look to re-sign Coutinho such was his exalted status in England.However, a move back to Anfield looks unlikely due to the club’s strained relationship with the player; Coutinho reportedly refused to train with teammates in the summer of 2017 following interest from Barca, and handed in a transfer request later in the season in order to force the move through.Furthermore, Liverpool and Barcelona are reported to be on uneasy terms after the Merseyside club insisted as part of Coutinho’s transfer that Barca pay a premium on any future players they sign from Liverpool. The Camp Nou club have now poached a number of Liverpool stars including Javier Mascherano, Luis Suarez and, of course, Coutinho.4A spanner in the works for United could be interest from their recent Champions League victims Paris Saint-Germain.The French champions were eager to sign Coutinho before his move to Spain, and are reportedly desperate to bolster their midfield after missing out on Ajax starlet Frankie de Jong.So, they may be in a position to exact some revenge for their humiliating exit from Europe last week.4The Champions League victory in Paris means United interim boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer looks set to land the permanent job in the summer.He has indicated that the squad needs tweaking for United to challenge Liverpool and Manchester City, and perhaps Coutinho could be the signing to bring about that transition.The Norwegian said: “We need more time to be challenging but thats what this club should be doing. The foundation is here.We just need to add a few attributes to the squad like what we saw against Paris Saint-Germain.4Theyve got to improve all the time because thats what the best teams in the league do.There definitely is a gap now. There is a top two and then were in the next four. Weve got to close that gap.I dont know how many points we are behind them because I dont look at that. But we have to do things step by step because you cant close it in one big go. Weve got to keep looking at it.

Rangers news: Joe Cole backs former England team-mate Steven Gerrard to stay at Ibrox for the long haul
Joe Cole has admitted he never had any doubts ‘natural born leader’ Steven Gerrard would adapt to his managerial role at Rangers.The former Liverpool captain has guided Rangers to the top of the Scottish Premiership and is impressing his former team-mate.2Cole, who spent 10 years in the England squad with Gerrard and played alongside him at Liverpool believes he will be at Ibrox for a long time to come.I dont think Steven will be in any rush to leave. Its a great job,” Cole said to The Scottish Sun.Id imagine its a great place to manage too. I reckon hes there for the long haul. He probably wants to be the man to turn it round up there.“I knew he’d be good at it. A lot of people were worried when he took the job. “It’s such a massive job for your first one but I had no doubt in him. I think he’s a natural born leader.“Playing and captaining Liverpool is as good an apprenticeship as you can have. When you become a manager all eyes are on you.Now 37, Cole, who won three Premier League titles with Chelsea, also played for West Ham, Lille, Aston Villa, Coventry and Tampa Bay Rowdies but admitted he wished he could have followed in the footsteps of a player he followed closely growing up,Paul Gascoigne.2“Rangers is a club I’d have loved to have played for. Gazza was my favourite player. I remember watching all his games,” Cole added.“A move there for me never quite happened but the club holds a special place in my heart because I was a massive Gazza fan.”
