Supporters of Stu Holden, the USMNT player and former Houston Dynamo star, have been singing the
midfielder's praise all season for his breakout role with Bolton. Now Holden, in his first English
Premier League season, is also getting recognized by the fans there as well.
Readers of "The Guardian," using their average player ratings for each EPL match, have chosen the
American international as their "best player so far this term".

"Little Zidane", "New Zizou", "The next Zidane"
Samir Nasri's nicknames, preposterous and premature, were heaped upon him not just because he
possesses raw talent and vision, but because he shares a basic story with Zidane: Algerian
parents emigrate to Marseille, build "street cred" while playing ball.

primera vez en sus 111 años de historia, en la camiseta del Barcelona que, a partir de la
temporada 2011, lucirá el logo de un sponsor sobre su camiseta.

Just as Carlo Ancelotti yesterday spoke of Carlos Tevez and the "reported interest" in him from
Chelsea by saying:
"There are a lot of rumours but I think that everything will be okay with him and
Manchester City because he is a fantastic player. He is very important to City and I don't think
they can afford to let him go.
Has this man played his final match for Chelsea? The reserves that is.
Yes, it looks like Fabio Borini will be moving to greener pastures sooner rather than later. The
young Italian striker, who has been iced out of the first team this term despite decimating all in
the reserves, is set to miss at least two months after undergoing shoulder surgery in his mother
country Tuesday.
Due to extreme weather tomorrow's game has been called off by the clubs and authorities. "Although
the pitch is playable, the safety of supporters was at the heart of the decision which was taken
this morning," Forest said in a statement. So, a bonus sledging day then!

Manchester City have confirmed that they have finally completed the signing of former Barcelona
prodigy Gai Assulin on a two-and-a-half year contract this morning after tailing
the Israeli youngster since he was released by the Catalans in July.
If the thing even goes ahead, that is. And should the requisite miracle take place and the biblical
amount of snow be pushed aside for a few hours then our lionhearted lot probably won't fancy it.
Y'know 'cos it'll be all cold and slippery.
Well, that's what may have happened under previous incarnations of Tottenham but surely not this
one?
1. Paul Scholes and Antonio Valencia will most likely be fit for whenever the game is
rescheduled, which definitely is a bonus where our starting XI is concerned.
2. Wayne Rooney might have found some goalscoring form and can then be entering the game full of
confidence.
3. The pressure is now on Arsenal and Chelsea, not us, as they play next weekend.
