Bayern Munich boss Pep Guardiola confirmed this week that he will leave his current job at the end of the season because he wants to manage in the Premier League.  

But Louis van Gaal is not concerned: "“I’m at the end of my career so for me it’s not so interesting, for me it’s interesting you I take care of Manchester United in my contract, and I still have one year to go after this season.”

Adnan Januzaj was recalled from his season-long loan at Borussia Dortmund.

The Belgian had made just 12 appearances and three starts for the Bundesliga club.

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal said: "I believe in the talent of Adnan Januzaj, it shall be very difficult to play matches in Dortmund, unfortunately I was proved right but he can better train for us and maybe show his talent in the first team.

"He has been tested already this morning and he didn’t play so much 90 minutes in the pre-season and he has to show his fitness in the second team."

Norwich boss Alex Neil will be without new signing Ivo Pinto for this weekend's FA Cup third-round tie with Manchester City but he is very happy to have him on board at Carrow Road...

"Ivo Pinto was registered in time but he won't be in the squad for tomorrow's game as he's only had one training session," said Neil. 

"Ivo has got Champions League experience and he's the perfect age at 26. He ticks all the right boxes for us."

Radamel Falcao has only started two games since joining Chelsea in the summer, and his manager is concerned about him.

Guus Hiddink has said that he is "worried about his situation.

"When I came in he was injured, and then in training he got another set-back. 

"I said to give him time and rest to recover. We’ll, see what happens, he's out of sight at this moment."

Liverpool and Everton have to negotiate “no win situations” in this FA Cup 3rd round weekend. Despite considerable injury problems, Liverpool will still be expected to beat Exeter, and Everton – who have injury problems of their own – will be fully expected to see off Dagenham and Redbridge. 

But the warnings from history are there. Reds fans may still be trying to forget Oldham in 2013, and going back further there was Bolton, Bristol City, and Burnley. Everton fans may shiver at the thought of Shrewsbury and Oldham (again!)

Jurgen Klopp will know all about the club’s FA Cup tradition, and Roberto Martinez knows what it’s like to win it. 

It’s Liverpool’s third game this week, and Everton have just dug deep to beat Manchester City in the League Cup, so it could well be an awkward weekend for both of them – and although I expect both to make it through to the fourth round, they’ll both know they’ve been in a game. 

Guus Hiddink has reiterated that he is just an interim manager, and won't carry on at Chelsea beyond the end of the season.  

“I have just two dates in my mind, 25 and 28th of May. Then I will finish and go home on 29th May", he said. "Those dates are the FA Cup and Champions League finals. I am very clear at end of this I will stop.”

Luis Suarez's two-match ban follows a scuffle in the tunnel after Barcelona beat rivals Espanyol in the Copa del Rey on Wednesday night.

The Independent (via Diario Sport, external) say that the referee's report states that the Uruguayan striker had some rather unsavory words to say to Papakouly Diop, for which you can head on over there to get a proper flavour, external.

You will, of course, remember that Suarez got himself into a bit of bother during the 2014 World Cup for biting Italy's Giorgio Chiellini, for which he was banned for four months.

Jan 1988.  Quagmire of a sloping pitch at the old Huish.  Non-League Yeovil against "top-flight" Queens Park Rangers. Packed ground, mud-caked players, raucous atmosphere.  

I'm BBC Radio Bristol's pitchside reporter, standing in the wind and rain, in the early days of radio microphones which required odd-shaped transmitters strapped to your back, together with long aerial.  Not ideal for a self-conscious twentysomething.  

Just before kick-off, a Somerset shout from the terraces.  "Eeere - mate.  Have you just landed from Maaaars?"  Cue general hilarity.  

Yeovil had their chances early on, but Rangers won 3-0 with two from Mark Falco."

You might have heard reports about a bust-up between Oscar and Diego Costa. 

Guus Hiddink has been speaking about it in his news conference. 

"It's a pity that our photographer had a day off or he could have shot beautiful pictures from the two", he said.

"They were jesting a bit after a charge from behind from the smaller of the two, Oscar. Costa took a charge from behind and it was overdone, especially when know Oscar he is not the biggest tackler of the team.

"They stumbled over the ground, stood up, as a normal reaction, they jested a bit, but we came in between them to say that there was no need to hit each other"

Hiddink said it was down to the intensity of the training session that the incident happened. "Those things happen when you're close on the edge after Oscar apologised in front of the group. He apologised for over reacting, then they looked at each other and started laughing. It was a normal battle"

Two improved performances and a much needed three points against Swansea has eased the pressure on Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal, but with injuries continuing to deplete his squad it will be interesting to see what kind of team he selects for the FA Cup tie with Sheffield United. 

With the Europa League and the Premier League to focus on, will he go all out with his best side, or rest players with Tuesday's Premier League game with Newcastle in mind? 

Adnan Januzaj's loan spell at Borussia Dortmund was cut short this week, so could he be in line to play a big part in the second half of the season?

It's my favourite day of the footballing calendar, even more so that I'm now involved at the hub of the BBC Radio 5 Live coverage at 3 o'clock.

I'm like a child on Christmas Eve and one of my favourite memories is the last 3rd round tie I covered, Blyth Spartans v Birmingham City.

The humble surroundings of Croft Park buzzed with excitement. It was open all areas. I spoke to the Blyth Manager Tom Wade in the laundry room 2 hours ahead of kick off with that distinctive aroma of soap powder and drying socks.

Fans dressed as Spartans posed for photos, one gentleman had even dyed his beard green!

And to cap it all....a walk to the chip shop for a pre match meal within the vicinity of the ground meant I didn't have to remove my headphones so I could still talk to the studio on the radio mic!

FC Porto have sacked head coach Julen Lopetegui after a three-game winless streak. 

The 49-year-old had a contract through to 2017, but in almost two years at Porto, Portuguese champion for seven of the past 10 seasons, the team did not win a trophy.
