Klopp lebih suka jumpa Everton [hmetro]

Liverpool, England: Pengurus Liverpool Juergen Klopp berkata, beliau berdoa dua pasukan Merseyside akan bertemu pada final Piala Liga selepas pasukannya mengatasi Stoke City menerusi penentuan penalti pada separuh akhir.

Jiran setempat Liverpool Everton mendahului 2-1 ke atas Manchester City menjelang separuh akhir kedua awal pagi tadi dan jika anak buah Roberto Martinez berjaya, Wembley akan menjadi pentas pertama final sesama kelab Merseyside dalam tempoh 27 tahun pada 28 Februari ini.

“Saya dapat tahu mengenainya sebagai satu perkara besar, tapi jika anda mengalahkan mereka,” kata Klopp.

“Saya tidak boleh mempengaruhi mereka. Kami akan menyaksikan perlawanan esok dan Man City ketinggalan satu gol, ada kemungkinan.

“Kami tidak kisah siapa yang akan kami temui. Sudah pasti ia final dua pasukan utara England dan jika semuanya berjalan lancar, ia satu pertembungan jiran setempat di Wembley.

“Tapi jika anda berdepan sesama sendiri, anda pasti mahu mengalahkan mereka. Dalam pertembungan jiran setempat, lakukan apa saja untuk mengalahkan mereka.

“Jika seluruh warga Liverpool pergi ke sana ia pasti bagus, tapi anda kena jaga rumah anda, bandar raya ini pasti kosong!” -AFP

Martial bertambah ‘garang’ [kosmo]

MANCHESTER – Penyerang baharu Manchester United, Anthony Martial meneruskan mimpi indah apabila tampil lebih garang bersama The Red Devils selepas meledak gol keempat untuk pasukan itu setakat ini.

Pada aksi pusingan ketiga Piala Capital One di Stadium Old Trafford awal pagi semalam, Martial yang dimasukkan selaku pemain gantian melengkapkan gol ketiga untuk mencetak kemenangan 3-0 ke atas Ispwich Town.

Pengurus United, Louis van Gaal menegaskan, Martial yang menyertai The Red Devils dari AS Monaco melibatkan nilai perpindahan £36 juta (RM241.2 juta) tidak akan terbawa-bawa dengan kecemerlangan yang dipamerkannya ketika ini.

“Saya tidak terkejut kerana dia seorang pemain yang sederhana dan mampu menjaringkan gol pada bila-bila masa berbanding rakan sepasukannya yang lain.

“Para pemain pasukan ini memberi laluan mudah kepada Martial untuk menjamin kemenangan United pada perlawanan itu. Dia mampu memanfaatkan peluang menggunakan kepantasan serta ketepatan yang dimilikinya.

“Sebelum ini, dia berjaya melakukannya ke atas Liverpool. Kami gembira tetapi saya tegaskan kami perlu merendah diri dan berpijak atas bumi yang nyata,” kata van Gaal.

Selain Martial, dua lagi gol The Red Devils pada aksi tersebut dijaringkan Wayne Rooney dan Andreas Pereira pada minit ke-23 serta ke-60.

Kejayaan itu menyaksikan United mara ke pusingan keempat Piala Capital One apabila dijadualkan berdepan Middlesbrough pada 26 Oktober depan.

Selepas ini, skuad bimbingan van Gaal akan bertemu pasukan tercorot Liga Perdana England, Sunderland di laman sendiri esok. – Agensi

COC : Spurs 1-2 ARSENAL

Arsenal beat Tottenham thanks to two goals from Mathieu Flamini

Mathieu Flamini struck twice as Arsenal beat north London rivals Tottenham 2-1 in the third round of the Capital One Cup at White Hart Lane.

The French midfielder marked his first appearance of the season with a superb second-half volley to secure bragging rights for Gunners' fans.

Spurs had mounted a spirited comeback after Flamini's close-range strike following a fumble by stand-in goalkeeper Michel Vorm, and equalised at the start of the second half when Callum Chambers deflected the ball into his own net.

However, it was Arsenal -- beaten at Chelsea in the Barclays Premier League on Saturday - who finished strongly, with Flamini crashing home a fine 25-yard effort after 78 minutes to send the travelling support into raptures.

Both sides had made the expected changes, Dutchman Vorm replacing Hugo Lloris in the Spurs goal while Costa Rica forward Joel Campbell was handed a rare start in the Gunners' attack.

Arsenal -- who had not lost three matches in a row since April 2010 -- fashioned the first decent opening in the 13th minute.

Full-back Kieran Gibbs darted down the left and crossed towards Olivier Giroud in the six-yard box, with the ball bobbling up and then Campbell headed it over.

The visitors remained on the offensive and took the lead after 26 minutes.

Midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, recalled to the starting XI, cut inside and rifled a low shot goalwards from the edge of the penalty area.

The ball bounced just in front of Vorm, who could only parry his save straight out where Flamini reacted quickly to sweep it back into the roof of the net before celebrating in front of the home support at the North Stand.

Spurs looked for a swift response and felt they should have been awarded a penalty when full-back Danny Rose tumbled over goalkeeper David Ospina, but referee Andre Marriner was not interested.

In first-half stoppage-time, Harry Kane, still searching for a first club goal this season, dragged a shot across the face of goal after a counter-attack.

The Spurs captain thought he had got off the mark soon after the restart when he tapped home a rebound from Christian Eriksen's shot, but was flagged offside.

Tottenham were eventually rewarded for their pressure with an equaliser in the 56th minute.

Nacer Chadli's cross into the six-yard box from the left was deflected past Ospina at his near post by the unfortunate Chambers.

The White Hart Lane faithful were now in full voice as Spurs looked to maintain momentum, before Gibbs headed a goal-bound acrobatic effort from Kane off the line.

Vorm redeemed himself with a smart save at the near post after Giroud was played into the left side of the Spurs penalty area.

Arsenal regained the lead after 78 minutes with a sublime finish from Flamini.

Substitute Alexis Sanchez scampered away down the left and the deflected ball then looped back across field and into the path of Flamini, some 25 yards out.

The midfielder did not break stride as he volleyed a superb effort into the bottom-right corner, before dashing off to celebrate with the jubilant massed ranks of travelling support behind the goal.

CHELSEA juara Capital One Cup

John Terry’s first cup final goal for Chelsea and a Diego Costa strike deflected into the net won the London derby showpiece at Wembley.

The deadlock in what had been a tight encounter with defences on top was broken shortly before half-time when the skipper finished off a set-piece. From then on there only looked likely to be one winner an indeed Jose Mourinho’s men doubled our lead inside the hour when Diego Costa’s drive from out wide took a touch off Kyle Walker on its way in.

Eden Hazard and Cesc Fabregas then went close but two goals proved to be enough to win the fifth League Cup in Chelsea history, not least due to a collection of fine pieces of defending in the second half which kept the clean sheet intact and Spurs at bay.

Manchester United's MK Dons humiliation may have doomed string of familiar faces to the axe

Sumber : DailyMirror

Display short of heart and technical quality against League One side could be the last Reds first-team appearance for Welbeck, Kagawa, Anderson and even Evans

My bad! Evans' error sparked MK Dons defeat and he could now lose his place to Rojo

Manchester United’s players did not just exit the League Cup on Tuesday - they may have kissed goodbye to their Old Trafford careers.

The likes of Jonny Evans, Danny Welbeck, Anderson, Shinji Kagawa and Nick Powell could pay a heavy price for being humiliated 4-0 by League One side MK Dons.

With United not involved in FA Cup action until January, it could be the last time Welbeck, Anderson and Powell are seen in the first team.

Van Gaal already wanted Welbeck out before Tuesday night, Kagawa is a target for Borussia Dortmund and the Dutch boss is also seeking takers for Powell and Anderson.

Even Evans’ future at the Reds is uncertain and the Northern Ireland defender, who captained this debacle, is under serious threat for his place from £16million new boy Marcos Rojo.

Evans witnessed a similar post-League Cup defeat cull seven years ago when Sir Alex Ferguson took his axe to the flops embarrassed 2-0 at Old Trafford by Coventry.

The Northern Irishman, then 19, made his debut that night and Fergie dumped the likes of Dong Fangzhuo, Phil Bardsley, Danny Simpson, Lee Martin and Chris Eagles from that side into the wilderness.

Despite blooding several youngsters against the Dons, Van Gaal fielded an experienced spine to his side - only to be let down completely.

 Benik Afobe makes it 3-0 to the home side

United proved to have as much backbone as a jellyfish as they completely collapsed at stadium:mk.

They demonstrated no passion or fight and their passing, normally the hallmark of every Old Trafford side, was atrocious.

Evans, 26, had a nightmare and he admits his awful pass, which led to the night’s first goal, triggered the rout.

“There were some sloppy mistakes, including my pass for their first goal and from that point we made it quite difficult for ourselves,” he said. “It was just sloppy mistakes which cost us in the end.”

What was particularly damning was Evans’ admission that Karl Robinson’s third-tier side were fitter than them.

“Once we had to start chasing the game, their superior fitness levels showed because most of our team hadn’t played in a while,” said the centre-half.

“I think the most important thing is to pick yourself up, learn from it and don’t dwell on it too much.”

MK DONS 4 - 0 MANCHESTER UTD

Football - United humbled by MK Dons

Manchester United suffered one of the most humiliating defeats in their long and proud history as MK Dons piled yet more misery on Louis van Gaal.

26 August 2014 Sumber : UkEurosports

The new United boss, now without a win in three matches, watched on in misery as his team were knocked out of the Capital One Cup at the second-round stage with a 4-0 defeat.

Will Grigg and Arsenal loanee Benik Afobe scored a brace apiece as United were easily downed by a team that began the night 38 places below them in the league ladder.

It was a hugely embarrassing defeat - one that brought back unwanted memories of their last League Cup second-round fixture in 1995 when they lost to York.

But it was nothing more than the Red Devils deserved.

A team showing 10 changes from the 1-1 draw at Sunderland never settled all night.

Fringe players like Danny Welbeck, Javier Hernandez, Shinji Kagawa and Anderson were given chances to fight for a place in the first team.

But they all under-performed. Until the dying stages, when the Dons' victory had already been assured, home goalkeeper David Martin had very little to do.

United handed the victory to the Sky Bet League One side on a plate thanks to a shabby defensive performance.

Jonny Evans, captain for the night, made a glaring error to hand the Dons the lead and from then on it never looked like the underdogs were going to lose.

Van Gaal may have Angel Di Maria to count on to aid his recovery - the £59.7million signing was confirmed just before kick-off - and on this evidence, many more replacements are needed, particularly at the back.

The 26,969 fans inside stadium:mk did their best to make United feel unwelcome as they took to the pitch, but in the early stages it appeared to have little effect as the Premier League club started well.

With 50 seconds on the clock, Welbeck raced down the wing and found Hernandez at the back post, but the Mexican slipped just as he was about to pull the trigger.

Nick Powell then fired a 25-yard shot just over the bar.

Hernandez punctured the Dons defence with a burst of pace, but he was pulled back for tugging Antony Kay's shirt.

Welbeck also broke through the back line in the ninth minute, but he could not test Martin.

From then on, the United team, which contained two debutants, went to pieces.

David de Gea had to race off his line to deny Grigg, who had given Reece James the slip to latch on to Darren Potter's headed through-ball.

Van Gaal was forced into a change when Kagawa was replaced by Adnan Januzaj following a clash of heads with a Dons defender.

Then came the moment Evans will not forget in a hurry.

The centre-half, under no pressure whatsoever, passed straight into the path of Ben Reeves inside the United box. The formerSouthampton player kept his cool and squared to Grigg, who slotted the ball past De Gea.

Evans held his head in his hands while the home fans taunted Van Gaal with chants of "You're getting sacked in the morning".

There was no immediate response from United. In fact, they were happy to go in at the break just one goal down.

Even the simplest of passes seemed beyond the 20-time English champions.

Hernandez, Anderson and Powell were all guilty of wasteful play and Martin had nothing to do in the home goal.

Marnick Vermijl's clearance landed straight at the feet of Samir Carruthers, but he shot straight at De Gea.

Van Gaal replaced the poor Saidy Janko with another debutant, Andreas Pereira.

The League One side continued to hold their own after the restart and they thought they should have had a penalty when Dean Bowditch's shot struck Evans' arm. Stuart Attwell waved play on.

Welbeck offered a glimpse of the quality United needed with a fizzing shot that flew just wide.

Defensive vulnerabilities cost United again though as the Dons stunned the home crowd with a second goal.

Evans played a careless ball to Michael Keane, who had little time to clear. The hosts took advantage down the right through Reeves, who whipped in a flat cross which Grigg flicked past De Gea with his chest.

It was an audacious finish that would not have looked out of place at the Nou Camp, rather than the Moo Camp - the local name for stadium:mk due to the presence of the concrete cows nearby.

Seven minutes later a third flew in. Baldock gained some space down the left and found Reeves. He played the ball in behind to Afobe, who rifled past De Gea.

The home fans could not believe the scoreline. There was time for more excitement though. Afobe showed the fight United lacked, driving past three defenders before beating De Gea.

Martin pulled off a string of top saves to keep a clean sheet and put the icing on a miserable night for Van Gaal.
