			<description>The England defender completed his medical on Saturday morning and agreed personal terms on a move from Stamford Bridge on a contract that will keep him in Manchester until June 2013. 



Bridge has largely played second fiddle to Ashley Cole at Stamford Bridge but the 28-year-old was introduced to the home fans immediately before Saturday's FA Cup tie with Nottingham Forest and is expected to make his debut against Portsmouth at Fratton Park next Saturday.

Given produced a series of magnificent saves against Liverpool on Sunday 

Goalkeeper Shay Given could be set to leave Newcastle United after saying he is disillusioned with the club's situation both on and off the pitch. 



Given said he had reached the &quot;lowest point of his football career&quot; after last week's 5-1 defeat by Liverpool. 



The 32-year-old has been linked with Arsenal, Tottenham and Manchester City.

Matthew Amoah was on target for the visitors four minutes from time, but it was not enough to prevent them from slipping to a fourth defeat in their last five games. 



Fifth-placed NAC could now find themselves 12 points adrift of league leaders AZ Alkmaar going in to the winter break should Louis van Gaal's men beat NEC Nijmegen on Sunday.

			<description>Grayson was on Tuesday announced as Leeds' new manager, despite having 18 months remaining on his contract at Bloomfield Road. 



Blackpool refused Leeds permission to speak to Grayson and rejected what they described as a &quot;derisory offer of compensation&quot;, believed to be around £200,000, for his services. 



Yet Grayson handed in a letter of resignation on Tuesday morning and signed a contract with the fallen Yorkshire giants, provoking the immediate threat of legal action against  ...</description>

			<description>Potters boss eyeing repeat of 1984



It will be 24 years to the day since United last visited Stoke for a league game and then, like now, the odds were stacked very heavily against the Potteries club. 



Stoke were eventually relegated with what was then a record low number of points, 17 from 42 games, but they still managed to beat the Red Devils 2-1 at the old Victoria Ground. 



The Potteries club also lost 5-0 at Old Trafford that season, just as they did last month and Pulis is  ...</description>

			<description>FIFA president Sepp Blatter expects England to put forward a &quot;strong&quot; bid to host the 2018 World Cup.



The world governing body have confirmed the hosts for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups will be decided at the same time - but have not put any block on countries bidding for both.



At one point it was felt FIFA would state only bids from European countries would be accepted for 2018 - which would have offered a big lift for England, who have already declared their intention to  ...</description>

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger fears he could be without captain Cesc Fabregas for up to three weeks after he picked up a knee injury against Liverpool. 



Fabregas hobbled off the pitch on the stroke of half-time after a full-blooded challenge with Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso. 



&quot;It's a medial knee ligament injury, (but) I don't know how long he will be out,&quot; said Wenger.

Liverpool took control of the game after half-time and must have sensed a victory when Emmanuel Adebayor was harshly sent off for a second yellow card just after the hour mark. 



However, the flow was taken out of the game by a series of bookings by referee Howard Webb and there were few chances of a winner for  ...</description>

			<description>The former England Under-21 player scored his seventh goal in 14 games for the Canaries on the hour mark to keep Roeder's side well clear of the bottom three in the Championship. 



The bad news for Norwich is that Lita is likely to play just two more games before heading back to Reading. 



Roeder said: &quot;It would be terrific if we could find a way of keep him but Reading know his value and I am told he will be going back there in January.

The 26-year-old has netted 18 goals for Rovers this term and is the joint-top scorer in League One. 



Rovers know they face a battle to keep hold of Lambert when the transfer window reopens and they are believed to have turned down a substantial offer for the former Rochdale hitman on loan transfer deadline day

The matter will be analysed by FIFA, with their findings then handed on to UEFA for action as they were the ones whose banner United were competing under.

			<description>A triumph for Los Che would have seen Valencia close the gap on Liga leaders Barcelona at the top of the table. 



However, it was Real who claimed the points in just Ramos' second league game in charge thanks to Gonzalo Higuain's early goal. 



Just three minutes were on the clock at El Santiago Bernabeu when the Argentine forward guided the ball home from Arjen Robben's mazy run. 



Although both sides pushed forward in numbers, the game surprisingly failed to see more goals.

England are top of their World Cup qualifying group following a 100% record of four successive wins, which included a superb 4-1 victory in Croatia. 



Capello, 62, signed a lucrative four-and-a-half-year deal which would take him through to the campaign to reach Euro 2012, although the contract does include an opt-out after South Africa next summer.

Saturday's 3-1 slump at Milton Keynes Dons saw the promotion hopefuls slip to ninth in the table and was their seventh loss in eight games. 



A statement on the club's official website read: &quot;The board took the decision following the recent poor run of results that has seen the club slip to ninth in League One, 15 points behind the leaders and five points outside the play-offs.

However, it was the visitors who came away with the three points, Matt Harrold's 55th-minute header from Matt Phillips' corner the solitary goal.
