*I'm sure you have heard by now, but US will play England at Wembley on May 28th. It is another great opponent and invaluable experience for the US squad away from home. I couldn't be happier with US soccer for planing this.

*Ives looks at the US goal scoring on the road. Not really inspiring, but hopefully that will change.

*Here is a link to Studio 90 from today. It includes a preview of the U-23 match as well as an interview with Maurice Edu.

Cole: Title race wide open


After scoring twice in last night's 4-4 thriller at Tottenham, Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole says the Premiership title race is wide-open.
"Don't write off anybody. It's anyone's title still," said the England ace.

"It's been a long season and the next two months there will be ups and downs. But the team that wins it, will be the team who can focus and concentrate."

On Sunday,23rd March, Chelsea FC faces Arsenal Fc in a fixture that will decide who keeps 2nd position if Manchester United maintains its 1st position. Therefore,Chelsea goalie Peter Cech is receiving an all round the clock treatment to ensure that he is ready for the London Derby.

During the Match against Tottenham Hotspur FC,The Blues saw their 4 goal lead cancelled by a superb Robbie Keane Strike and a Dmitri Berbatov brace in the dying hours of the game almost gave the HotSpurs a victory but for a Carlo Cuducini save..
The draw means that Chelsea have a chance to take over the 2nd place when they meet the GUNNERS on Sunday.

Shevchenko wants free loan move to AC Milan


Chelsea striker Andriy Shevchenko is in talks with Roman Abramovich.

Corriere dello Sport says Shevchenko has asked Abramovich to allow him to join AC Milan on-loan - without a fee being involved.

The unsettled goal scorer is not happy with his current form and wants to move on with his career after Club-Owner Roman Abramamovich had made public his intention to sack a good number of his players ranging from Frank Lampard, Belletti, Florent Malouda, Makelele, Steve Sidwell,etc. It has been reported that Abramovich chose to dismiss a good number of his team owing to the team's failure to win a trophy at this time of the season.

Arbeloa: Man Utd should be more worried about Liverpool


Alvaro Arbeloa says Manchester United should be more worried about Liverpool than the other way round.

He told Liverpool's website: "You worry a little bit when you're going to be up against Ronaldo, Carlos Tevez and Wayne Rooney because they are fantastic players - but that's my job.

"We have big defenders here like Carra, Sami and Fabio. They are great defenders, so I can sleep well."

The fullback added: "Fernando Torres and Stevie Gerrard are playing really well, scoring goals and have a good partnership. I think the Manchester United defenders will be really worried."

Liverpool's recent form has been very impressive as Coach Rafa Benitez's preferred 4-3-2-1 formation has really helped the team to defend together as a team and at the same time allowing the mid-field to counter-attack the oppossing team.

Liverpool Fc faces Everton Fc and Arsenal FC in subsequent fixtures that will decide Liverpool FC's standings in the Premiership Standings.
