Arsenal's Arsene Wenger: A signing before the end of the transfer window would be a miracle

LONDON - Arsene Wenger claimed today that it will be a “miracle” if Arsenal buys a player in the final 48 hours of the window.

His team was jeered by a section of the home support after going 2-0 down to Aston Villa at halftime but Wenger reiterated his confidence in his squad after a brilliant second half comeback sealed a 3-2 win and a place in the fifth round of the FA Cup.

Asked if he will bring reinforcements before Tuesday’s 11pm deadline, Wenger said: “I cannot say ‘nothing’ but it will be a little bit of a miracle now. The biggest thing for us is to get our players back. When you look at the bench today, we had top quality.”

In a separate interview shortly afterwards, Wenger said “certainly not” to the possibility of any new acquisitions before teasing supporters by saying “but you never know”.

However, there could be a short term departure from the club in the next 48 hours, with Wenger admitting that he was weighing up whether Japanese winger Ryo Miyaichi will be sent out on loan for the rest of the season.

But the Arsenal manager explained that Miyaichi will only be loaned to an English club, in order to protect his home-grown eligibility. Miyaichi has been heavily linked with a switch to Valenciennes in France.

Wenger has received an encouraging medical bulletin with regard to Jack Wilshere. The manager said he is waiting for further news from the specialists dealing with his recovery before knowing when the England international can resume fitness work.- http://sports.yahoo.com/

Johnson confident Wolves can survive

 

Wolves defender believes club can avoid relegation from Barclays Premier League

Centre-back Roger Johnson joined Wolves for £7m from Birmingham City last summer

Wolves defender Roger Johnson believes there is enough quality at Molineux for the club to avoid relegation this season.

The Midlanders have slipped into the Barclays Premier League relegation zone in recent weeks after a run of eight matches without a victory.
They lost their last match 3-2 at home to Aston Villa after leading 2-1 at one stage, but Johnson says they need to start turning good performances into points.

Johnson joined Wolves from Birmingham City last summer for £7m after the Blues were relegated from the Barclays Premier League and he has made 22 League appearances this season.
Wolves face Liverpool at Molineux on Tuesday 31st January, and with the club enjoying a free weekend after being knocked out of the FA Cup, Johnson is looking forward to getting back on to the pitch.- http://www.premierleague.com/

Wigan snap up winger Beausejour

Wigan Athletic have completed the signing of winger Jean Beausejour from Championship side Birmingham City for an undisclosed fee. The 27-year-old passed a medical at the DW Stadium on Wednesday and put pen to paper on a two-and-a-half year contract. Beausejour has won 43 international caps for Chile and scored the winner in the World Cup 2010 group match against Honduras in South Africa.

"[Manager] Roberto [Martinez] told me about the plans he has for the club and I am really excited to join and meet my team-mates," Beausejour told the club's official website. "We have a really tough end of the season, but I am really looking forward to the challenge ahead.

"I want to thank all the supporters at Birmingham and now I have to concentrate on getting in the team and doing my best for Wigan Athletic. Latics boss Martinez added: "Jean is a player we have been tracking for a long time since he made a huge impression on us with his role for Chile in the World Cup. "Now Jean has 18 months of experience in the British game and his dynamism, technical ability and tactical concepts will bring a different dimension into our squad.- http://www.premierleague.com

Chelsea suffer Lampard injury blow

Midfielder has small tear in calf muscle and will miss FA Cup tie with QPR


Chelsea will be without midfielder Frank Lampard for their FA Cup tie against Queens Park Rangers on Saturday after he picked up an injury. Lampard, 33, suffered a small tear in his calf muscle during the 0-0 draw at Norwich City in the Barclays Premier League on Saturday. He had a scan on Monday to discover the extent of the injury and will now sit out the fourth round match at Loftus Road. Lampard has played in 20 Barclays Premier League matches this season and is Chelsea's joint-leading goalscorer with nine, and the Blues will hope to have him back for their trip to Swansea on Tuesday 31st January.

A statement on the Chelsea website (chelseafc.com) said: "The midfielder is unlikely to feature in the match against QPR on Saturday but is expected to join up with the rest of the squad in Mallorca where they are training this week." Chelsea flew out to Spain straight after Saturday's lunchtime draw at Carrow Road for a few days of warm-weather training, which manager Andre Villas-Boas says is simply to give the players a rest from their usual routine. "It's a break of routine, nothing more," said the Portuguese coach. "It is nothing new, winter camps are normally done with Premier League teams and we decided to opt for Spain. "We gave them the day off on Sunday, in a different place, and regarding the work we will focus the same."- http://www.premierleague.com

Mario Balotelli charged with violent conduct by FA

Manchester City's Mario Balotelli has been charged with violent conduct by the Football Association after appearing to stamp on Scott Parker. The incident occurred in City's 3-2 win over Tottenham, with Balotelli scoring a late penalty to win Sunday's match. Following a dismissal earlier this season Balotelli, 21, faces a four-match ban, but any unsuccessful appeal could result in a longer suspension.

Joleon Lescott will not be punished after a clash with Younes Kaboul. Manchester City defender Lescott caught Kaboul in the face with his forearm in a separate incident at the Etihad Stadium. Italy striker Balotelli, who has until 1800 GMT on Wednesday to respond to the charge, came on as a 65th-minute substitute against Spurs.

He was booked for a foul on Benoit Assou-Ekotto, but after escaping punishment from referee Howard Webb following his clash with Parker, the striker was fouled by Ledley King in the final minute of added time and converted the resulting penalty. If he pleads guilty, Balotelli will miss Wednesday's Carling Cup semi-final second leg against Liverpool at Anfield.- http://news.bbc.co.uk/

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson expects Phil Jones to miss 'a few weeks' after suffering ankle ligament damage against Arsenal

The Red Devils manager has revealed that "it's not good news" for the England defender after he was stretchered off during his side's 2-1 win over the Gunners on Sunday



Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed that he expects Phil Jones to be out of action for "a few weeks" after the defender suffered ankle ligament damage against Arsenal.

The former Blackburn Rovers star turned on his ankle as he attempted to halt the advancing Theo Walcott during United's 2-1 victory over the Gunners and was subsequently stretchered off.

Ferguson expects the versatile England international to miss around three weeks and admits that Michael Carrick was also struggling with hamstring problem during the second half of the game at the Emirates Stadium.

"It's not good news for us," he said. "I think Jones will be out for a few weeks - it's ankle ligaments.

"Carrick was feeling his hamstring in the second half and he just had to sit in the middle of the pitch." - http://www.goal.com/

Carlo - Drogba devours rivals

Former Chelsea boss offers advice for getting the best out of Torres



Carlo Ancelotti has suggested his former club Chelsea need to offload Didier Drogba in order to get the best out of £50million man Fernando Torres.

Chelsea spent a British transfer record sum to sign Torres from Liverpool 12 months ago, but the Spaniard has repaid the investment with only five goals.

Torres, who has not scored since mid-October, has struggled to form an effective partnership with Drogba when given the opportunity and, in recent weeks, Ancelotti's successor Andre Villas-Boas has been playing just one up front.

Drogba's departure for the African Cup of Nations has handed Torres a chance in the team, while the Ivory Coast ace's future at Stamford Bridge is uncertain. - http://www1.skysports.com/

DZEKO HEADS EPL LEADER MANCHESTER CITY TO WIN AT WIGAN

WIGAN, England -- Manchester City's two-month wait for an away win in the Premier League ended on Monday, with Edin Dzeko's goal settling a hard-fought 1-0 victory for the leaders at Wigan.

The Bosnia striker brought an 11-match goal drought to an end in the first half, heading David Silva's free kick into the net.

"He deserved to score a goal," City manager Roberto Mancini said. "He scored this very important goal for us and I hope he continues it in the next game."

Dzeko had not scored since Nov. 5 at Queens Park Rangers, which was City's last away win in the league before four successive setbacks.

"We needed that win," City goalkeeper Joe Hart said. "It wasn't pretty, and it wasn't a pretty pitch out there. Fair play to Wigan, I think they are in a false position in the league at the moment for me so it's a great result for us.

"We've not been great on the road recently so we're really happy."

The match ended with City manager Roberto Mancini in animated conversation with the fourth official after referee Martin Atkinson only showed Wigan's Maynor Figueroa a yellow card for handing the ball as he denied Aguero a clear run on goal in the 88th minute.

"Was manchini (sic) asking for red card????," Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney wrote on Twitter, a week after being accused by Mancini of helping to get City captain Vincent Kompany sent off in their derby.- http://www.tsn.ca

Arsenal slips to another away defeat at Swansea

SWANSEA, Wales (AP)—Arsenal slipped to its sixth loss from 11 away matches in the Premier League on Sunday, outplayed 3-2 at Swansea despite Robin van Persie’s 18th goal of the season.

Van Persie put the Gunners ahead after only five minutes but Swansea equalized 11 minutes later through a penalty by Scott Sinclair.

The Welsh side took the lead through Nathan Dyer in the 57th. Theo Walcott made it 2-2 in the 69th but the Swans hit back immediately when Danny Graham took advantage of some slack defending to hit a 70th-minute winner.

In its first topflight season since 1982-83, Swansea played about 100 more passes than Arsenal and dominated possession against what has long been one of the most attractive teams in the Premier League.

“We’ve got the players to play great football and we’ve shown today we can match one of the best teams in the Premier League—and at their style of football,” Dyer said.

Thierry Henry came on as a substitute for Arsenal but could do little.

Arsenal stayed fifth in the standings, four points behind fourth-place Chelsea in the final Champions League berth.

Swansea is in 10th place, 10 points behind the Gunners but nine clear of the relegation zone.- http://sports.yahoo.com
