The explanation is simple: Granada's Borja Gomez De Jong'd Malaga's Diego Buonanotte in the
first half of Monday's 2-1 win. Gomez was shown a yellow card for his high kick and somewhere, Xabi
Alonso felt an intense pain in his chest. Even if he didn't know why, he knew why.

So much for Liverpool holding what they had. This was no lock-down defensive effort. Liverpool
played defense by attacking, and would have settled the tie far sooner if not for Joe Hart's
continuing brilliance.

Liverpool have opened talks with FC Groningen over exciting striker David Texeira, as manager Kenny
Dalglish steps up his transfer activity in the closing stages of the window.
Dalglish had previously made buying a striker his top priority for January, with Luis Suarez
missing for eight matches through suspension, and Andy Carroll and Dirk Kuyt struggling to find
their feet this term.
The KNVB Beker (Dutch Cup) clash between Ajax Amsterdam and AZ Alkmaar, which was suspended due
to an attack on AZ keeper Esteban Alvarado in the initial encounter, was completed today in the
Amsterdam ArenA with the home side going down to a 3-2 defeat.
Siem de Jong gave Ajax the lead as early as the 10th minute only for the visitors to restore
parity fourteen minutes later through Maarten Martins.
The last couple of seasons, seeing our midfield overrun, Wenger changed from 4-4-2 to 4-3-3.
This added more players in central midfield where too often we had lost vital games, but the
flip-side meant that the striker was isolated.
For 4-3-3 to work you need at least one of your three central midfielders to get into areas to
support the striker.
Premier League duo Liverpool and Newcastle are both interested in signing FC Twente striker Luuk de
Jong but neither side has made an offer, according to the player's agent.
The 21-year-old has been linked with a number of clubs around Europe after impressing for Twente,
with Italian side Fiorentina already having declared their interest.

FC Twente frontman Luuk de Jong has reiterated his desire to play in the Premiership, alerting a
host of clubs, including both Liverpool and Tottenham, who are reportedly interested in him.
21 year-old de Jong's contract with his current employers runs out in June of 2014, meaning that
any prospective suitors would have to stump up a sum of around €10 million in order to prise him
away from Enschede.
Dutch striker Luuk de Jong is a 21 year-old Dutch International striker who was born in
Switzerland. Luuk de Jong - 21 year-old old Dutch International striker Newcastle have been
watching this lad for a while now, and we think he would be an excellent acquisition for
Newcastle, but it could cost up to £10M for the 6 times capped FC [.

FC Twente may well have lost 2-1 in Krakow last night (to send Fulham packing), surrendering
their unbeaten group stage run in the process, but they definitely scored the goal of the night
through Luuk de Jong's impeccable 39th minute bicycle kick...
Pretty.

Arsenal 0 – 1 Manchester City: Match Review
During the day there was a lot of discussion whether we should take this game seriously or
not.
I'm proud of the team today.
An Arsenal side composed mostly of our youth players and our second string benchwarmers did much
better than anybody expected, outplaying a "reserve" Man City side that still had the likes of
Nasri, Dzeko, Aguero, Johnson, and De Jong on the pitch and which likely cost more to assemble than
15 first XI's in the EPL.
Arsene went with a 4-4-2 in a system that was designed to give games to players rather than a
clear tactical move. Mancini retained his 4-3-3 but was surprisingly defensive in his approach with
Kolarov playing as a left winger, at least for half an hour!
The first half was largely uneventful with neither side really creating many chances.
Today has seen a new Arsenal transfer rumour emerge in the form of Manchester City's Nigel De Jong.
Tough tackling and a hardman attitude are the first thoughts that come to mind with the player but
the Dutch international undoubtedly has more to offer than that. As well as his battling style, De
Jong's passing [.

"MINI MANILA"I'm not sure how that sentiment started in the first place, but judging by the posting plastered
online and heard from the grapevine, it seems that JBS would turn out become a "mini Manila" for
the friendly fixture between Singapore and The Philippines.
True enough that majority turned out for the game were the expat Filipinos.
Carlos Tevez is finished at Manchester City, says Roberto Mancini | Football | The Guardian.
In one of the most bizarre moments on any soccer field that I can remember, Manchester
City striker Carlos Tevez urinated all over himself again by refusing, yes refusing, to come on as
a substitute in the second half of City's Champions League Group game against Bayern Munich at the
Allianz Arena today.
Despite already making plenty continuous investments with Manchester City until this season,
Roberto Mancini still bemoans the lack of options he have at the club which simply isn't allowing
him to rest some tired players in recent games.
The lack of depth in the midfield area is being heralded by Mancini as the main issues that
caused the two recent draws his team's having, especially the latest 2-2 result against Fulham in
the premier league which saw the Eastlands slipping ground in their race with Manchester
United.
As the Euro 2012 qualifying round winds down, the cream is rising to the top.
Defending champion Spain and Italy joined Germany as powerhouses to qualify for next summer's
tournament finals after victories over Lichtenstein and Slovenia, respectively, on Tuesday.
David Villa and Alvaro Negredo each netted braces in Spain's 6-0 victory that cemented the
nation's place atop Group I, while Giampaolo Pazzini's late goal gave Italy a 1-0 win and
guaranteed first place atop Group C.

to ignore them would be akin to sitting at home watching TV when the boy you hate next door is
having a party for celebrating his selection to the national football team.

The Samir Nasri transfer saga is finally over as Arsenal have sold him to title rivals

Arsenal's squad which flies to Udinese this afternoon and instead will travel north for a

Week 2 of the Premiership has arrived, although it is no less exciting. This weekend Manchester
City travel to the Reebok, in our first (of many) Northwest derbies of the season. This has been
billed as a top of the table clash, which is technically true as City were the only other club to
win by more than a 1 goal margin, and they also smashed 4 unanswered goals past new promoted
opponents.

Blimey, looks like the sun is out again today. It feels almost ... continental.
And it's a big day at Arsenal as players will return for the start of pre-season training. I
don't expect they'll all be there today, but over the next couple of days we should have everyone
back. With a trip to Malaysia and China very much on the horizon (the first game is on Wednesday
week) it'll be important to get them running around, burning off the pies and fish and chips and
Mars bars they've been eating all summer.
