KampusbeT  ~   " Emmanuel Emenike joins West Ham United on loan "

Agen Klik4D  ~   West Ham United have confirmed the signing of striker Emmanuel Emenike on loan from Fenerbahce until the end of the season.

However, the Nigeria international will now spend the rest of the season with the Hammers, who have the option to make the move a permanent one at the end of the campaign.

"I'm very, very happy and very, very excited that I'm here. I have always known West Ham as a great club. I've always been watching them.

West Ham's a great club and I'm happy to be here," he told West Ham TV.

"We've followed each other's careers and thank God we are here today and we are here together."

Emenike has made 37 appearances for Nigeria and was part of the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations-winning squad in addition to playing at the 2014 World Cup.

Manchester City lead transfer chase for Everton's John Stones as Chelsea interest cools

KampusbeT  ~   " Manchester City lead transfer chase for Everton's John Stones as Chelsea interest cools "

Agen TangKasneT  ~   Manchester City are emerging as the hot favourites to land £50million star John Stones.

Everton defender Stones had a torrid night at the Etihad on Wednesday in a Capital One Cup semi-final loss but that will not deter the Mancunian Blues, who are planning another summer of expensive recruitment.

Champions Chelsea still retain an interest in Stones, but it is not as keen as it was last summer under now-sacked manager Jose Mourinho.

And, of course, the Stamford Bridge club’s struggles this season means it remains unlikely they will be able to offer Stones immediate Champions League football.

Bandar Judi Online TangKasneT  ~   Goodson Park officials now expect City to be at the front of the pursuit of 21-year-old Stones, who has come under fire from sections of the Everton support recently.

With long-term worries over captain Vincent Kompany’s fitness persisting, the central defensive area remains a concern for City.

Barcelona and fellow Spanish super-club Real Madrid are monitoring the situation, but England international Stones is believed to want to stay in the Premier League for now.

Agen CasinO  ~   Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has revealed that he will celebrate his side's FA Cup win over Championship high-flyers Derby County with a bottle of "expensive wine".

The Dutchman's future at Old Trafford had been called into question again prior to the game, with some reports suggesting that a defeat would have resulted in his sacking.

Addressing the media after the match, Van Gaal revealed that he would toast the triumph with wine provided by his boss, executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward.

Bandar Judi Online CasinO  ~   "How will I celebrate this victory? I come back and my wife is at home from the Netherlands," he said.

"The wine will be open. It is a nice bottle of expensive wine from Ed Woodward, which I always get after beating a team out of the top six."

United are now through to the fifth round of the cup for the second successive season under Van Gaal's tenure.

Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne reveals knee injury will keep him out for 10 weeks

KampusbeT  ~   " Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne reveals knee injury will keep him out for 10 weeks "

Agen SbobeT  ~   Kevin De Bruyne has dealt Manchester City a huge blow by revealing he will be out for two-and-a-half months.

De Bruyne suffered a sprained ankle and knee ligament damage in his side's Capital One Cup semi-final win over Everton, ruling him out for 10 weeks.

It means the £54million signing will miss City's Capital One Cup final showdown with Liverpool at Wembley on February 28, as well as a huge chunk of the title race run-in.

De Bruyne has been one of City's outstanding performers this season and inspired the win over Everton, coming off the bench to score and set up another in the 3-1 win.

After seeing a specialist about his ankle and knee injuries, De Bruyne last night tweeted: "Just got back from the specialist. I'll be out for around 10 weeks.

Bandar Judi Online SbobeT  ~   "I'll work hard on my recovery and hope to be back on the pitch ASAP. Thank you all for the supportive messages!"

The news is a huge setback for Manuel Pellegrini's hopes of success as they chase down an unprecedented quadruple.

De Bruyne has been a revelation in his debut season with City, plundering 12 goals and 12 assists to help spreahead City's trophy assult on four fronts.

The 24-year-old is not expected back until mid-April at the earliest, meaning he could miss up to 15 games in all competitions including City's Champions League clash with Dynamo Kiev and a potential quarter-final tie.

He will also miss up to 10 Premier League games, including those against title rivals Leicester and Tottenham, as well as clashes with Liverpool and Manchester United.

Kampusbet  ~   " Nigel De Jong set to follow Ashley Cole to LA Galaxy after being offered three-year deal "

Agen MaxbeT  ~   LA Galaxy will follow up the signing of Ashley Cole by bringing in former Manchester City midfielder Nigel De Jong.

Bandar Judi Online MaxbeT  ~   Ex-Arsenal, Chelsea and England left back Cole, 35, is one of the few big name defenders to go to the MLS.

 

LA Galaxy general manager said: “Ashley is one of the world’s most successful defenders and has played at the highest level of competition throughout his career.

“He can provide our defence with valuable experience. We look forward to his contribution to our club this season.”

 

Manuel Pellegrini confirms Willy Caballero will start League Cup semi-final instead of No.1 Joe Hart

Kampusbet  ~   " Manuel Pellegrini confirms Willy Caballero will start League Cup semi-final instead of No.1 Joe Hart "

Agen Klik4D  ~   Manuel Pellegrini has confirmed he will gamble on Willy Cabellero in tomorrow's Capital One Cup semi-final tie against Everton. 

Manchester City No.1 Joe Hart will be consigned to the bench – despite his heroics at the weekend – as Pellegrini sticks with his policy of playing Caballero in domestic cup ties. 

Hart produced a contender for save of the season at the weekend in City's 2-2 draw at West Ham, the England No.1 keeping out a goal-boundfree-kick from Dimitri Payet with a remrkable save. 

But Pellegrini is sticking by Caballero for the decisive tie at the Etihad, even though City's No.2 has kept just one clean sheet this season.

“Yes, Willy will start the next two games because I trust a lot in Willy,” said Pellegrini.

“He is a very good goalkeeper and I think one of the important things why Joe Hart improves a lot was he has been working with Willy every day and he feels he has important competition behind him. They have important competition in their position.

“I think Willy deserves to play this game and Joe has a lot of trust in this moment. He doesn't have any problem that change goalkeepers. It's a good moment for the goalkeepers.”

Bandar Judi Online Klik4D  ~    City will still be without five players as they aim to overturn a 2-1 deficit and book their place at Wembley on February 28. 

“The injury situation is exactly the same as last week – Eliaquim Mangala, Vincent Komapny, Aleksander Kolarov, Wilfried Bony and Samir Nasri.”

Pellegrini dismissed suggestions skipper Kompany will be out for a further six weeks. 

“I don't think so,” said Pellegrini. “I think Vincent will return in a couple of weeks. We said in the last press conference it is very important the way he improves in the next two weeks, but I think he will be back before then [six weeks].”

Pellegrini added: “One of the Most important things is the desire to play another final at Wembley, We must reflect that [in the performance]. That is the target – to arrive at the final.

“It is the third time we are going to play against Everton on one month, so we know a lot about their team, the way they play and the important players they have.

“If you arrive at a semi-final, it's important to play the final at Wembley.

“Maybe Everton will be more motivated, because they have not been in the final for years, but I'm sure our team will do all they can to reach the final.”

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp praises Roberto Firmino's ability to play as a centre-forward

Kampusbet  ~   " Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp praises Roberto Firmino's ability to play as a centre-forward "

Agen TangKasneT  ~   Jurgen Klopp has praised Liverpool attacker Roberto Firmino's ability to lead the line for his side. 

The Brazilian has been deployed as a lone striker for three Premier League matches in a row and has scored a brace in two of them.

He netted a double in the dramatic 3-3 draw against Arsenal at Anfield, drew a blank in the loss to Manchester United, and hit another couple in the Reds' last-gasp 5-4 win over Norwich.

 

And Klopp believes the 23-year-old's performances have answered recent questions posed to the German about whether Liverpool need to sign a striker this month.

Bandar Judi Online TangKasneT  ~   Klopp said: “After Manchester United, everybody asked me ‘What about Firmino, [do] you need a real target striker?’ But he scored two against Arsenal and he scored two here.

“I think it’s a wide spectrum. Roberto is a striker. He’s a very offensive player. A lot of strikers are 1.60 metres or 1.70 metres-something. Leo Messi, what is he?

“Firmino can play and score goals and he is, for us, a good option to play with. He is flexible and in brilliant shape.

“Having the option with Christian [Benteke], that’s good. We have too many games where I can say ‘This or this is No.1’. We always have to make decisions.”
