What a return it has been for Kenny Dalglish. Only Cardiff City now stand in the way of Liverpool lifting the Carling Cup at Wembley later this month and thus securing the club's first trophy in six years. King Kenny has brought the buzz back to the city. And thankfully, whatever the dramas off the field, everyone at Anfield appears to be pulling in the same direction once again.

Clint Dempsey will try to keep his torrid hot streak in the English Premier League going against a Manchester City side looking to hold on to first place in one of today's best matches.

The Cottagers are in need of points to move further away from the relegation zone, but earning any in Manchester against a City side coming off a loss to Everton won't be easy.

According to ESPN, the match was seen by 1.

Not the draw I wanted at all, but taking personal reasons away and concentrating solely on the club, drawing Tottenham at home is a very good tie. The Lamex Stadium is almost guaranteed to be packed to the rafters mostly with Spurs supporters to watch Boro host the Premier League side for the first time in a competitive fixture.

Landon Donovan set up both Everton goals today as they knocked Fulham out of the FA Cup. Clint Dempsey was a non-factor for Fulham, who are terrible away from home. And of course Tim Howard guarded the entrance to the cave like a momma bear as usual for Everton. And a 4th American was even on the team sheets today as Marcus Hahnemann was the Everton back up keeper.

Not to be out-shown by the atrocious work being done in the press box, both the United States and Panama turned in embarrassingly poor performances in what was, by far, the least attractive game of soccer in the Klinsmann era. Graham Zusi grabbed the game's only goal in the 9th minute, lashing home a cross that the US was lucky to see bounce off the back of hapless striker Teal Bunbury's leg inside the Panamanian area.
