New-boy Pavel Pogrebnyak opened his account for the Cottagers on Saturday against a Stoke City
side who are now desperately in need of a win.

Lastly Thierry Henry's late game winner versus Sunderland.
I am going to assume the Prem will have no choice but to change the scoring on Fulham's winner
today, giving Clint Dempsey another dazzling goal to count. His shot is clearly tipped onto the bar
by the keeper, which makes it a shot on goal, which makes it a scorer's goal. If that's an own
goal, my name is Lord Rupus Schmendrake IV.
Their Words "You have to focus on your own game as well but of course we've got players with the
size and the quality to cope with the weapon of long balls and throw-ins." Fulham manager Martin
Jol. Other Sources Clint Dempsey's Diary: Playing and scoring in the World Cup was the ultimate

Brad Friedel, amongst his peers, still going strong at 41 years old
A recent post by Jamie Trecker poses the question will the USA ever win the World Cup? And when
will the USA ever produce its own Pele, if ever?
Trecker goes on to say that the USA has always produced top quality goalkeepers, the country's
most visible export to overseas leagues in this sport.

Landon Donovan's time with Everton is nearing its end and while he may want to make an impact in
all of his remaning games with the club, this weekend's match might be at the top of his list.
Everton are set to face Chelsea in a match that will pit Donovan against the likes of John
Terry, Juan Mata and Florent Malouda.

Liverpool's goalless draw with Spurs on Monday night once again underlined the pressing need for
Kenny Dalglish to buy a striker capable of *regularly* scoring goals. Last week, Anfield legend
Steve Nicol argued that Fulham's Clint Dempsey could do a good job for one of the league's top
sides, and now he has gone one step further and suggested that Liverpool should actually think
about buying him
USA 2014 World Cup Squad Projection Version 1.5 - The 90th Minute Soccer Blog
It's been a few months since the initial projection and it's changed a bit with several
friendlies taking place. Overall, the core of the team remains the same with the final spots still
unclear. This projection is of what the team (23 man squad) will be for the World Cup (in 2014) and
not during qualifying.

It was a tough day for Yanks in England as Tim Howard, Landon Donovan, and Everton were held to a
draw against Wigan, while Clint Dempsey and Fulham lost to Manchester City.
Clint Dempsey and Fulham had no luck against Manchester City at a snowy Emirates Stadium, falling
3-0. City were up from the penalty spot within ten minutes, making it 2-0 from an own-goal. It was
3-0 in the 72nd, with Joe Hart picking up the shutout. "In the second half I think we had more
possession," Fulham manager Martin Jol said.

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.

snowy Etiahd Stadium on Saturday, coasting to victory against a Fulham side who rarely threatened

It appears U.S. men's national team head coach Jurgen Klinsmann is making a concentrated effort
to get to know CONCACAF teams prior to World Cup qualifying.
According to a report, the United States will travel to Canada to take on its northern rival in
a friendly before World Cup qualifying begins in June.
Clint Dempsey scored his 10th goal of the Premier League campaign in Fulham's 1-1 draw against West
Bromwich Albion on Wednesday, putting him in seventh place in the goalscoring leaderboard this
season.
Watch here
Some players like lots of time and space, others can operate in crowds.
To play in central midfield you need to be at one end of what we'll call the space-time
continuum; if you are not at the right end you may struggle in that role. In that case you need to
find somewhere else where you will get space and time.
The phenomenal start to 2012 continued for Landon Donovan and Clint Dempsey, the two best American
players, in a full midweek set of games in England.

Clint Dempsey scored after receiving a wonderful reverse pass from David Ruiz to give Fulham the
lead before Somen Tchohi equalised late on.
Clint Dempsey was once again the goal scorer for Fulham putting them in front in what turned into a
1-1 draw against West Bromwich Albion at Craven Cottage. Dempsey's 69th minute opener was cancelled
out in the 82nd. With Bobby Zamora transferred to Queens Park Rangers on Tuesday, Dempsey was used
as a striker.
Clint Dempsey did it again.
Dempsey scored another goal for Fulham, tallying the opener in the Cottagers' 1-1 draw with West
Brom on Wednesday. Costa Rican international Bryan Ruiz slipped Dempsey a pass inside the area, and
the American turned and finished with a right-footed strike in the 69th minute to add to his
current run of form.

So transfer deadline day came and went without much fuss. Over on the live blog we had an influx
of Matthews, Willem Dafoe scoring against Sp*rs, rapping Clint Dempsey, Andrei Arshavin as Rita
Hayworth and then ... a signing!
Young Germanian Thomas Eisfeld (wonderfully captured here by @gooner_nate) put pen to paper on a
four year deal.
On this side of the Atlantic, the football news that received quite a bit of attention over past
few days was Friday's FA Cup tie between Everton and Fulham, featuring Clint "Hat Trick" Dempsey,
Landon Donovan, and Tim Howard. Everton won, and as SI.com put it,
Landon Donovan etched his name further into Everton lore with two assists in the
Toffees' FA Cup victory over Fulham.
Former New England Revolution star Clint Dempsey could be changing teams before England's
January transfer window comes to a close at 6PM ET on Tuesday. The current Fulham FC midfielder has
been lighting it up in the Barclays Premier League with 15 goals through all competitions and could
see a dream move to one of the top clubs in the league before Tuesday's deadline.
Everton's 2-1 win over Fulham last week not only propelled the club into the fifth round of
the FA Cup, but it also provided the first head-to-head showdown between U.S. national teammates
Landon Donovan and Clint Dempsey. The following is Landon's latest correspondence with his
friends and family back home, where he reflects on that match.
Martin Jol is set to end his month-long pursuit of a striker as the Fulham boss is on the verge
of unveiling Russian striker Pavel Pogrebnyak from the German Bundesliga's VfB Stuttgart.
The 28-year old Pogrebnyak has been capped 30 times by his country, scoring eight goals on the
international stage while also scoring 15 times in 64 league appearances for Stuttgart.

With a name that makes us all thank the stars for 'copy and paste', Pavel Pogrebnyak looks set
to move to west London in one of the biggest deals so far in this rather moribund transfer
window.
The Russian international striker has never been the most prolific of strikers, however, the
imposing forward is best utilised as a targetman who can hold up the ball, and he'll no doubt be
confident of making a (hard-to-spell) name for himself at Craven Cottage.
By Dario Camacho - MIAMI, FL (Jan 30, 2011) US Soccer Players -- When we see the recent success of
former and current Major League Soccer players in England, it has to feel good for fans of North
American soccer. An ex-Revolution player outrunning a pair of defenders en route to a triplet of
goals was a cathartic, ecstatic moment for those of us rooting for Fulham's Clint Dempsey.
We review two FA Cup 4th Round matches: the meeting of Landon Donovan's Everton and Clint
Dempsey's Fulham, followed by Liverpool versus Manchester United. Plus, of course, the Wikipedia
Game.
Video: FA Cup: Everton/Fulham
And so it was. In the English matchup of American titans Everton bested Fulhman 2-1, led by the
efforts of a Man of the Match-worthy Landon Donovan, who assisted on both goals for his side. Clint
Dempsey may have found success where Donovan never could, but in this match, at least, Donovan
hushed his frequent teammate.
Arsene Wenger goes in to today's FA Cup clash knowing that realistically it is the only trophy
that can end our seven-year silverwear drought. That's probably why he is set to start RVP up front
against Alex McLeish's men at the Emirates.
But as you would ecpect given the lack of success at the club of late, AW is also eyeing new
talent for the future.
