Days after his head coach cited a lack of progress as a reason for his benching, Jozy Altidore
responded in a big way.
In his first start for AZ Alkmaar in 2012, Altidore bagged a brace in the club's 3-3 draw with
Heerenveen. Altidore scored the game's opener when he received the ball with his back to goal,
turned and fired a shot to the near post.
Aston Villa have signed a record-breaking £15 million kit deal with an Italian sportswear
manufacturer, Macron, to replace current supplier Nike.

It wasn't surprising that Alan Pardew was delighted to see Papiss Cisse score a great goal on
his Newcastle debut this afternoon at St. James' Park. The two Dembas celebrate after Cisse goal
The two Senegal strikers showed what they are capable of this afternoon, with two opportunistic
goals for the Magpies, to give them all 3 points against a decent Aston Villa side.

In fairness to McLeish, you could argue that one of the five deep-lying midfield anchors should
be moved slightly over the halfway line and labelled 'Keane', plus another couple when Ireland and
N'Zogbia come on for the last five minutes!

If there were fears and concerns from fans and pundits over Tim Ream's move to Bolton Wanderers,
you would have been hard-pressed to identify why this weekend.
Three weeks after completing his move to Bolton, Ream made his debut for the club by earning a
start and going the distance in a 2-0 FA Cup win over Millwall.
The League Cup may not hold the appeal it once did, marginalised in England as the once proud
UEFA Cup has been in continental play (though when it comes to re-branding, England's second cup
competition got there first—it's been changing its name for thirty years now). From the first
competition in 1960 through its first six years, the final was a two-legged home-and-home
affair.

Balotelli (´29),
Aguero (´51) y

(´80), Manchester City venció (3-0) al Blackburn Rovers como local por la 26º jornada de la
Premier League.
Tercer partido sin recibir goles (3-0 a Fulham, 1-0 a Aston Villa) y 67 sobre 69 puntos posibles
jugados en casa desde la última vez que cediera puntos (hace un año), la aplastante marcha del
City deja a todos (incluso al Manchester United) bajo su sombra de (único) líder inglés.
Chandler, Donovan, Torres withdraw from USA Roster; Shea & Kljestan added - The 90th Minute

The USA roster has changed a bit as three players have withdrawn and two are added. Timmy
Chandler, Landon Donovan, and Jose Francisco Torres have been forced to withdraw from the squad due
to injuries.
Aston Villa have announced massive losses of almost £54 million for the year ended 31 May 2011
and the club confirmed the overall group loss for the year has increased to £53.9m from
£37.6m.
That figure includes the money spent to bring Darren Bent to the club in January last year, but
does not factor in the sales of Ashley Young to Manchester United and Stewart Downing to Liverpool
which went through last June.

Former Liverpool striker Djibril Cisse has a knack of scoring debut goals, and he's off to a flying
start at his new club QPR with an excellent first-half goal against Aston Villa.Cisse - aka 'Lord
of the Manor of Frodsham', the title he held when he played for Liverpool - scored 24 goals in 79
appearances during his time at Anfield.
Newcastle United are up to fifth in the Premier League after they beat Blackburn Rovers 2-0,
while Arsenal's poor run of form continues as they were held 0-0 at Bolton.
Newcastle are now just three points behind Chelsea and a UEFA Champions League place as the
Magpies leapfrog both Liverpool and Arsenal with the win.

CARSON, Calif. -- With Landon Donovan, David Beckham and Robbie Keane, the Los
Angeles Galaxy boasted one of the strongest rosters in MLS.
Now with the addition of Edson Buddle, the Galaxy's attack may be the finest in league
history.
Liverpool were linked with dozens of players during the January transfer window, and one of the
names that kept popping up was Aston Villa's Darren Bent. With 164 goals and 39 assists in the last
nine seasons, the England International definitely matches the type of player Liverpool need (and
arguably still need), but the Bent has now revealed that a transfer was never realistically on the

A substantial portion of America will be treated to an extra helping of soccer on the biggest

Who should replace Chelsea's John Terry as England captain? Former England and Aston Villa manager
Graham Taylor believes that Liverpool talisman Steven Gerrard is the ideal candidate for the job,
but only if he can prove that he's up to it. Speaking to BBC Sport, Taylor argued:"Gerrard's been
captain before and I'd expect [Fabio] Capello to give it to him if he gets his top-class form back.
Newcastle came away with all 3 points on Wednesday evening at Blackburn, and a second successive
win in the Premier League tomorrow against Aston Villa would see the lads flying high. If
Newcastle can win tomorrow against a decent Aston Villa side, then Newcastle would have 42 points
from 24 games and the side would remain [.
For the past few season, Aston Villa has been a club on the fringes of crashing the "Sky Six"
party. Coming into the 2011-2012 season, despite the appointment of Alex McLeish as manager, many
supporters had hopes that Villa could challenge ...

A big snowstorm hit England on Saturday, threatening to jeopardize the slate of matches set for
today, but the big headliner between Chelsea and Manchester United will go on as planned, and it
will serve as the marquee match of a busy day in the soccer world.
While the Super Bowl dominates the American sports landscape today, soccer fans here will have
plenty to choose from for their viewing pleasures, topped off with the big Chelsea-United
clash.
Demba Ba returns to the starting line up this afternoon for Newcastle United against Aston Villa at
St. James' Park. As expected Shola Ameobi makes way for the Senegal striker and his team-mate
Papiss Cisse in on the bench. Ba will partner Leon Best up front, and this looks like a decent
team for Newcastle today.
Ahead of this afternoon's game against Chelsea, Darren Mantle from CFCNet has taken the time to
talk to us on all things Chelsea.

start of the season or had you been anticipating a serious title challenge from

Sacha Kljestan has quietly put together a solid season for RSC Anderlecht, but he made some
noise in the club's latest win on Sunday.
Kljestan scored his third goal of the season (fourth across all competitions) in Anderlecht's
4-2 win over Racing Genk when he fired home a free kick from 30 yards out.

So Newcastle's new signing Papiss Demba Cisse and fellow Senegalese team mate Demba Ba netted
goals for the Magpies in their 2-1 home win over Aston Villa yesterday. However, whats funny is
that the same two players could not do the same for Senegal in the Africa Cup of Nations.
And this is interesting because African players have a tendency to perform well for their clubs,
but when it comes to their national sides, it is a different story.
