Luis Suarez enjoyed a rapturous return to the Liverpool first-team as his brace helped the Reds to a 3-1 win over Sunderland in his first league appearance since April.
It was a bustling encounter at the Stadium of Light, with both teams creating a host of decent chances, but the visitors' more clinical front pair of Suarez and Daniel Sturridge paid dividends.
And it didn’t take long for the Uruguayan to show manager Brendan Rodgers what he’s been missing, with the 26-year-old testing the Sunderland defence as he twisted and turned to make room for himself before unleashing a fierce drive that fizzed just past the post in the opening exchanges.
The Black Cats also threatened early on as midfielder Seb Larsson struck the bar with a trademark free-kick, but Liverpool looked to have the lead after nine minutes when Martin Skrtel had the ball in the back of the net, only for the defender’s goal to be ruled out for offside.
Despite the home side’s best efforts, the in-form Sturridge put the visitors ahead in controversial circumstances on the half-hour mark, the England striker appearing to divert Steven Gerrard’s corner into the net with his upper arm.
Sunderland fans were then further angered when the referee turned down protests after an apparent pass back from Kolo Toure to Simon Mignolet, who returned to the Stadium of Light for the first time since his £9million switch to Merseyside.
But their jeers were silenced just minutes later when Suarez netted his first goal since returning from his ten-match domestic ban, slotting Sturridge’s pass home into an empty net after a sumptuous long ball from passmaster Gerrard.
Liverpool looked vulnerable at the back in moments, while Liverpool’s makeshift right-back Kolo Toure found it difficult to keep tabs on Mackems winger Adam Johnson.
The half-time scoreline was perhaps harsh on the Black Cats who performed well and kept plucking away at Liverpool’s back four, with Craig Gardner forcing Mignolet to save magnificently from point-blank range after a clever pass over the top from Lee Cattermole.
And the home side started the better as the teams emerged for the second-half, with Johnson again going close with a low strike that drifted just wide and Emanuele Giaccherini pulling one back for the Wearside outfit seconds later, the Italian poking the ball home after Mignolet spilled Ki Sung-Yueng’s initial effort.
Mignolet then redeemed himself as Sunderland pushed for an equaliser, the Belgian stopper doing extremely well to parry Gardner’s well hit long-range strike.
Liverpool seem to be unable to maintain their dominance in matches at present, and the three points looked less and less likely for them after each Sunderland attack.
There was that familiar lack of cohesion to Liverpool’s second-half performance, with wayward passes and poor control halting a lot of their forward moves, as interim boss Kevin Ball’s men looked to pounce on their mistakes.
But the hosts struggled to sustain their high tempo, and while Westwood came to his side’s rescue again with a fine save from piledriver from Toure, Suarez wrapped up the contest with his second a minute from time, sweeping the ball into another empty net following a swift counter-attack from the red men.
Sunderland’s fourth consecutive defeat sees them remain rock-bottom of the top flight, while Liverpool rise to second - level on points with Tottenham -, with the emerging partnership of Suarez and Sturridge leaving the Anfield faithful hopeful of catching first-placed Arsenal.

Barcelona forward Lionel Messi will be sidelined for up to three weeks after pulling a right thigh muscle in the 2-0 win over Almeria on Saturday.
The injury to the world player of the year will rule him out of Tuesday's Champions League trip to Celtic.
Messi, 26, scored as Barca recorded a club-record seventh straight La Liga win at the start of the season.
It is the Argentine's second injury of the season after he missed an earlier game after bruising his left thigh.
He also missed several games at the end of last season with a right hamstring pull.
In addition to the Celtic match, he will also miss two Spanish league games against Valladolid and Osasuna.

Former Manchester United defender David May has called for fans to be patient with David Moyes as he steers the club through a difficult period of transition.
The former Everton boss has overseen United’s worst league start in the Premier League era, in his first season since taking over from the great Sir Alex Ferguson.
On the back of winning a record 20th top-flight title, the Red Devils have already slumped to three defeats in their opening six games, while United fans have been left wanting following an unproductive summer transfer window.
But May, who was a key part of United’s famous 1998/99 treble winning team, insisted the club will come out of the other side of their recent woes, and adds that it's crucial that Moyes strengthens the squad over January.
“Teams are ahead of us now, Arsenal are eight points ahead and you cannot give the competing teams these points in hand,” the former full-back told Press Pass.
“But you have to bear with it. We’ve got a team of champions who know how to win things and they need to stick together and turn it around.
“They’ve got big players at United. Robin van Persie, Wayne Rooney, Rio Ferdinand and Michael Carrick, all these players have got vast experience of being in this position, and it’s up to those lads to pull the rest of the team through.
“David Moyes might be saying something to the owners now. We went for Cesc Fabregas, Thiago Alcantara and Gareth Bale this summer, but they didn’t happen.
“Their summer dealings sent out the wrong message for fans, but we need to stick together and see it out to the New Year and hopefully get in a couple of players in the winter.”

Former Man United striker vows to snub Stoke's interest
Stoke's long-standing plans to sign former Manchester United striker Mame Biram Diouf have taken a hit.
Diouf is out of contract with Hannover in the summer and Stoke manager Mark Hughes tried to sign him in the transfer window.
The Senegal star, who had a poor time in England with United and Blackburn, has improved since moving to the Bundesliga.
Hughes is keen for more firepower up front and will try to land the 25-year-old in the winter.
However, as talkSPORT revealed recently, Hannover are eager to keep Diouf and will fight to keep hold of him.
And now the player himself is planning on holding renewal talks.
He said: "I'm under contract with the Hanover and I like to renew.
"Hannover is a nice place to live and signing with them was the best thing I have done in my career."

Jose Mourinho already has one Torres, but reports in Portugal say he’s after another. Namely, Atletico Madrid’s midfield sensation Oliver. talkSPORT's Transfer Spotlight has more on the youngster...
Name: Oliver Torres Muñoz
Date of birth: 10 November, 1994
Birthplace: Navalmoral de la Mata, Spain
Position: Central midfielder
Club: Atletico Madrid
International appearances: 3 (Spain U21)
Honours: UEFA European U19 Championship (2012), Copa del Rey (2012/13)
What's the latest?
Torres began to break into the Atleti first team last season, and there was much excitement among supporters surrounding a midfielder who promised to offer more creativity than more senior players in the side. Diego Simeone has opted for a gradual approach in an attempt to bed him in to the first team, meaning he has only made a few substitute appearances this season, so there is a chance that the youngster could get itchy feet. Portuguese paper Record say that Jose Mourinho rates him highly, and Chelsea could make an €8m offer in January. Atleti won’t be keen to sell however, having just tied him down to a new deal with a €24m buyout clause, and Chelsea’s cause could be further complicated by reports that Barcelona may have first refusal on him as part of the David Villa transfer.
Did you know?
1) Torres was a decorated youth player and was voted best player at several junior tournaments in his early years. At the age of 12, he was scouted by both FC Barcelona and Espanyol during a brief spell at a football camp in the Catalan capital, but would ultimately return to his native Extremadura to be close to his family.
2) In the end the midfielder wouldn't regret his decision, as at the age of 13 he passed a trial to join Atletico Madrid's academy. He quickly impressed onlookers with his skill and speed on the ball, and by the time he turned 17 he caught the eye of first team coach Diego Simeone.
3) On April 29, 2012, he made the Atletico first team squad for the first time ahead of their game with Real Betis. The youngster would have to wait until July 28 in a friendly against Alianza de Lima for a taste of first team action and his official debut followed on August 19, when he came on for striker Adrian against Levante.
4) The creative midfielder was involved in an unfortunate incident in August 2012 when he posted a picture of himself in the official Real Madrid shop at the Santiago Bernabeu on his Twitter. After Atletico supporters reacted unfavourably upon seeing one of their brightest young players seemingly shopping at the home of their biggest rivals, he took to Twitter to explain that he simply had to make an emergency stop there to buy some boots at the last minute, adding that supporters "shouldn't doubt that I'm an Atletico fan".
5) Unsurprisingly for a player of his promise, Torres has featured prominently at youth level for Spain, making his first steps for La Roja with their U16s. At the age of only 17, he won the UEFA European U19 Championship with Spain, becoming an undisputed started for his nation and playing in the final against Greece. He has recently become part of the U21 set-up.
They say
“Chelsea are after another Spanish footballer with the name Torres. By Jose Mourinho’s request, the Blues are preparing an offer to make to Atletico Madrid for Oliver Torres in January.” Portuguese sports paper Record on Chelsea’s interest.

<strong>Chelsea</strong> are the visitors to London rivals <strong>Tottenham</strong> on Saturday in a match that brings Portuguese duo <strong>Jose Mourinho</strong> and <strong>Andre Villas-Boas</strong> head-to-head as bosses for the first time.<br />
<br />
Villas-Boas left Mourinho's Inter Milan four years ago to
become manager of Academia but can he prove his Spurs side are title
contenders? Who will come out in the battle of master vs apprentice?

<strong>Former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy:</strong>
"There's not many complete midfielders who can do everything. These
days teams play more with three central midfielders who can all do
different jobs.<br />
<br />
"Players like Tom Huddlestone have become more important
because defensive midfielders aren't expected to thunder into tackles as
much now. It's about intercepting and reading the game. Michael Carrick
does the same very effectively for Manchester United."</div>

<img class="holding" height="252px" src="http://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/images/70156000/jpg/_70156537_70156536.jpg" width="448px" /><br /><br /><div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1">
Barcelona footballer Lionel Messi has appeared before a Spanish judge as part of a tax fraud investigation.</div>
The 26-year-old Argentine, four times Fifa World Player of
the Year, and his father Jorge Messi are accused of defrauding the
authorities of more than 4m euros ($5.4m; £3.4m).<br />
<br />
The two men were questioned separately at the court in Gava, near Barcelona.<br />
Both father and son deny the allegations. The Messis' lawyer said he wanted to resolve the matter.<br />
The footballer and his father are suspected of using
companies abroad - in Belize and Uruguay - to sell the rights to use
Lionel Messi's image, thereby circumventing tax obligations in Spain.
The allegations date back to 2007-9.<br />
<br />
The income related to Mr Messi's image rights included
contracts with Banco Sabadell, Danone, Adidas, Pepsi-Cola, Proctor and
Gamble, and the Kuwait Food Company. <br />
<span class="cross-head">'Tougher line'<br /></span>
After Friday's hearing, which was a closed-court session, the
state prosecutor's spokesman told the BBC that no agreement had been
reached with the two men and their lawyers.<br />
The spokesman said that the defence's strategy had been to
pin blame on Jorge Messi, insisting on the innocence of the star
striker.<br />
<br />
In August, Jorge Messi made a payment of 5m euros to the tax
authorities - the 4.16m euros of the alleged unpaid tax plus interest. <br />
<br />
The BBC's Tom Burridge in Madrid says that Spanish tax
authorities are taking a much tougher line on tax infringements due to
the country's economic crisis, which is why they are continuing to
pursue the case despite this payment.<br />
<br />
Lionel Messi has previously stated that he and and his father
"have never committed any infringement. We have always fulfilled all
our tax obligations".<br />
<br />
<div class="caption body-width">

<span style="width: 464px;"><br />Lionel Messi's father Jorge (centre) and his son were questioned separately</span>
</div>
<span class="cross-head">'Humble'<br /></span>
Mr Messi's net salary from Barcelona is said to be about 16m
euros a year, making him one of the world's most highly paid
sportspeople.<br />
<br />
He has also signed multi-million-dollar endorsements with commercial sponsors around the world. <br />
Mr Messi's achievements on the field have made him one of the most marketable in the business.<br />
He came from a modest background and has overcome a serious
health issue, joining Barcelona as a 13-year-old in 2000 and making his
first-team debut only three years later. <br />
<br />
But the allegations are a big blow to the prestige of the
player, who has long been seen as a more humble figure than most
top-class footballers.<br />

Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas has no regrets about the breakdown
of his friendship with former mentor and Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho. </div>
<div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" itemprop="description">
<br /></div>
Villas-Boas, 35, worked under Mourinho for seven years
at Porto, Chelsea and Inter Milan and faces him for the first time when
the Blues visit White Hart Lane on Saturday.
<br />
"I don't lose any sleep," he said. <br />
<br />
"We had a great personal and professional relationship before. We don't have that now."
<br />
Mourinho refused to be drawn on his relationship with Villas-Boas when pressed for a response by journalists on Friday. <br />
<br />
<div id="story_continues_2">
</div>
<div id="story_continues_2">
Reacting to numerous requests to comment; he answered: "I've got nothing to say."
</div>
Villas-Boas opted to split from Mourinho - having
worked as a scout for him - after his Portuguese compatriot rejected his
plea to move to a more a senior role. <br />
<br />
He went on to enjoy success as manager of Porto, including
winning the league title
and Europa League in 2011, before following in Mourinho's footsteps to
manage Chelsea
between 2011 to 2012 and now
Tottenham.<br />
<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18610066"><br /></a>
<br />
"Our break-up point was because I was full of ambition
to give him something extra and I wanted further involvement from the
job I was doing at that time," said Villas-Boas. <br />
<br />
"I felt I could give him much more. But he didn't feel
the need for somebody near to him or in another position as an
assistant, and because of that it was decided that it was time, after
Inter Milan, to continue our careers apart." <br />
<br />
When asked if it would be fair to say that Villas-Boas
no longer considers himself friends with Mourinho, he replied: "Yes, I
think so. I don't think we need explanations. But our relationship has
broken down.
<br />
"I think we have the mutual respect for each other and
we understand what we have been through cannot just disappear, but it's
not like it was before." <br />
<br />
Villas-Boas will also come up against several of the
players he was in charge of at Chelsea on Saturday, including Spain
midfielder Juan Mata, 25, who has been
used sparingly by Mourinho this season.
<br />
The Spurs manager made an enquiry for Mata this summer
but admits it is unlikely he will renew his interest when the transfer
window reopens. <br />
<br />
"When top players become available, when their
situation changes at a club, and particularly for a player like Juan
Mata, you enquire about the situation, but nothing went further than a
simple enquiry," added the Spurs boss.

<div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" itemprop="description">
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho believes Tottenham are a "big contender"
for the Premier League title, claiming they are one of six possible
champions.
</div>
The Portuguese, 50, insists the title race is more open than
during his first spell as Blues boss between 2004-2007.<br />
<br />
<br />
"Tottenham are a big contender. They have bought players with quality," he said ahead of Saturday's trip to Spurs. <br />
<br />
"Six teams are competing for the position. Any one of the six teams can be first, any one can be sixth."
<br />
Mourinho joined Chelsea in June 2004
and led them to two Premier League titles in his first two seasons,
with Manchester United lifting the trophy in his final season at
Stamford Bridge. <br />
<br />
Chelsea and Manchester United were the only Premier League winners between 2005-2011, before
Manchester City broke their dominance in 2012.<br />
<br />
<br />
Mourinho's side go into Saturday's match
fourth in the table,
two points behind second-placed Tottenham.
<br />
"In my first time it was a clear race between Chelsea
and Manchester United, two fantastic teams who were probably better than
any team at this moment," he said. <br />
<br />
"Finally, Man City broke that period of blue and red dominance. At the moment the situation is different.
<br />
"At this moment six teams are competing for the position, that is the beauty of the league. It is better like this." <br />
<br />
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has also said
six teams are challenging for the Premier League title,
claiming Liverpool and Tottenham have joined Manchester United,
Arsenal, Manchester City and Chelsea as realistic contenders.

Barcelona's Javier Mascherano out of Champions League tie at Celtic</h1>

<div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" itemprop="description">
Barcelona defender Javier Mascherano will miss next week's Champions
League trip to Celtic as well as two league games with a hamstring
injury. </div>
<div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" itemprop="description">
<br /></div>
The Argentina international, 29, had to be substituted after half an hour of
<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24236577">the Spanish champions' 4-1 win against Real Sociedad</a>
on Tuesday.<br />
<br />
Medical tests on Wednesday confirmed the ex-West Ham and Liverpool player has strained his right hamstring.<br />
<br />
"He will be sidelined for 10 to 15 days," said a Barcelona statement.
<br />
His absence leaves Barca coach Gerardo Martino with limited defensive options for Tuesday's tie against Celtic in Glasgow.<br />
<br />
Left-back Jordi Alba is already out with a hamstring
tear, while centre-back Carles Puyol continues to regain fitness after
knee surgery in the summer.<br />
<br />
Midfielder-turned-centre-back Mascherano has also been
ruled out of La Liga matches at Almeria on 28 September and the visit of
Valladolid on 5 October.<br />
<br />
"These are Barca's last three games before the
international break. There will be no more games after that until the
trip to play Osasuna on 19 October," added the Barca statement.

Real Madrid referee maybe 'not in right frame of mind'</h1>
</div>
<div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" itemprop="description">
The official that awarded Real Madrid the stoppage-time penalty that
enabled them to beat Elche 2-1 might not have been in the "right frame
of mind", according to Spain's referees' chief. </div>
<div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" itemprop="description">
<br /></div>
Cesar Muniz Fernandez judged Carlos Sanchez to have
pulled down Pepe in stoppage time with the scores at 1-1, leading to
Cristiano Ronaldo scoring the winner from the resulting penalty.<br />
<br />
"I don't think he got it right," said Victoriano
Sanchez Arminio. "Maybe he had some family issue that meant he wasn't in
the right frame of mind."<br />
<br />
The referees' chief added: "But there you go, sometimes we get it right and sometimes not, that's football.
<br />
"When someone is not on form on the pitch it's one thing after the other."<br />
<br />
Replays seem to suggest that the Portugal defender had
held the arm of the Elche player as both fell to the ground as a corner
from the right was delivered into the area.<br />
<br />
<div id="story_continues_2">
Elche full-back Edu Albacar said his side,
promoted to Spain's top flight last season, had been robbed of a point
after Richmond Boakye's 91st-minute header had cancelled out Ronaldo's
free-kick.
</div>
"The match has been stolen from us," said the defender.
"Anyone who watched the game can decide why Madrid won, it's very
clear."<br />
<br />
After the final whistle, Elche midfielder Carlos
Sanchez had to be restrained by a team-mate as he tried to make his
feelings known to the referee.<br />
<br />
Real manager Carlo Ancelotti said he was "not happy" with the performance of his players.
<br />
"We suffered a lot, especially at the end. The team did
not control the match after Ronaldo's goal," the former Chelsea boss
said.<br />
<br />
"The important thing is the result but it's not enough, we have to play better.
<br />
"Playing like that we will not win the derby - above all we have to play with more intensity and personality."
<br />
Meanwhile, Ancelotti told Barcelona's Gerard Pique to "focus on playing rather than talking" after the defender.<br />
<span class="text"></span><span class="external-link-icon"></span> <br />
Real, who lie third in Spain's top flight, play
Atletico Madrid on Saturday. Atletico, who along with Barca have won all
of their opening six league games, are two points head of their city
rivals.

Manchester United manager David Moyes insisted he will be a success at the club after steering his side to a
<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24140621" title="Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool">League Cup win over Liverpool.</a></div>
<div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" itemprop="description">
</div>
Moyes, 50, replaced Sir Alex Ferguson at Old Trafford
in the summer but has had a testing start, with his side in eighth place
in the Premier League.<br />
<br />
After beating Liverpool to earn a fourth-round tie with Norwich he said: "It's not frustrating. I will sort it.
<br />
"I will fix it. I will turn it round. I have no doubt about that."<br />
<br />
Moyes saw his side
<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23830980">lose to Liverpool</a>
and
<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24098632">be thrashed 4-1 by rivals Manchester City</a>
in a difficult opening start to the Premier League, but has now won
five of his first eight games in all competitions - the best start of
any new United manager since Matt Busby in 1946.<br />
<br />
"Everybody seems to be picking a stat out - I have not
won here or I have not done that," former Everton boss Moyes said. "That
is one of the good stats.<br />
<br />
"I have not had that many good ones. But that is one of the better ones.
<br />
"It was a big game for us. We had lost at Anfield a few
weeks ago and at the Etihad on Sunday and we wanted to put that right."<br />
<br />
Javier Hernandez's goal was enough for Moyes' side to
beat Liverpool at Old Trafford, with United hosting West Brom in the
Premier League on Saturday.<br />
<br />
"Every game is either a first for something or it is a monkey off my back. It is going to be the way, isn't it?" said Moyes.<br />
<br />
"Liverpool have started the season well, so to get a result was good."

scored in that match</a>, but the official's refusal to punish Napoli
for knocking him around throughout the game pushed him over the edge.
And after his own manager said that he needs to <a data-rapid_p="5" href="http://sports.yahoo.com/news/allegri-balotelli-must-change-champion-221700885--sow.html" target="_blank">stop acting like a child</a>, Mario has decided to
apologize. But not to everyone.<br />
Balotelli recently asserted that <a data-rapid_p="6" href="http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/soccer-dirty-tackle/mario-balotelli-says-comparisons-between-him-zlatan-ibrahimovic-231606236.html" target="_blank">he shouldn't be compared to former teammate and fellow
supremely talented and endlessly entertaining striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic</a>,
but when he apologizes in teh third person it becomes all the more
difficult to avoid comparisons. He tells La Gazzetta dello Sport (via <a data-rapid_p="7" href="http://www.football-italia.net/39936/balotelli-im-sorry" target="_blank">Football Italia</a>):<br />
<blockquote>
“First of all I am sorry for my teammates,” said Balotelli. “They
train and work hard with me, so with this gesture I left them alone. I
also feel guilty for the fans, who care so much, and of course the club. </blockquote>
<blockquote>
“I apologise to the referee, as I should not have reacted that way.
Against Napoli it was the same old story, the fouls against me don’t
seem to count and as soon as I do anything... I just want others to be
punished for fouling me the same way I am for fouling them. But I do
realise I have to resist in certain situations.” [...]<br />
“I made a mistake when I was provoked. Mario got it wrong and Mario
apologises, but I don’t want to apologise to everyone because it’s not
as if I killed someone,” added Balo, talking about himself in the third
person.<br />
</blockquote>
It's true that Mario hasn't killed anyone, so the outrage should be
tempered by that fact. But a professional footballer referring to
himself in the third person isn't usually viewed as much better.

A Statue Is Removed, and
Fans Are Thrilled </h1>
LONDON — For decades, Michael Jackson was known for his elaborate
entrances and glittery stage shows. On Wednesday, the King of Pop was
hauled away in air-bubble packaging by four burly stonemasons.<br />
<br />
<div itemprop="articleBody">
It was an unceremonious end to his nearly three-year run at Fulham’s
stadium, <a href="http://www.fulhamfc.com/visit/craven-cottage" title="Info">Craven Cottage</a>.
After 90 minutes of chiseling, sawing and hacking, Jackson left the
building, horizontally, on the back of a truck. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
He will not be missed by Fulham fans. Since April 2011, a nearly
eight-foot statue of Jackson, made of Jesmonite, stood facing the
Thames, behind the home stands. A large sign that read “Michael Jackson
the Tribute” hung next to Jackson, who stood atop black granite with a
sequined jacket, an ammunition belt and a glove on his right hand. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<br /></div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
His presence was incongruous in the extreme. Mohamed al-Fayed, the
team’s eccentric former owner, who called Jackson a friend, had the
statue built even though Jackson seemed to care little about soccer and
attended only one Fulham match. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<br /></div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
Fulham’s fans were happy with Fayed, who spent lavishly to lift the
club’s fortunes. They helped pay for a tasteful and far more expensive <a href="https://foursquare.com/v/the-johnny-haynes-statue/4ef458d6e5e89bc30e0cd374" title="Info">bronze
statue of Johnny Haynes</a>, perhaps the team’s greatest player, which
stands at the other end of the stadium. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<br /></div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
While Jackson’s fans traveled from far and wide to pay their respects,
in the masculine world of English soccer, the homage to Jackson was
considered a joke. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<br /></div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
“It’s rubbish,” said Andy Hunt, a longtime fan who stood near the statue
before Tuesday’s <a href="http://us.soccerway.com/matches/2013/09/24/england/league-cup/fulham-football-club/everton-football-club/1584144/?ICID=PL_MS_11" title="Match summary">League
Cup game against Everton</a>, drinking beer with his friend, Malcolm
Apted. “I don’t object to the person. If it was in bronze, maybe. But
it’s tacky.” </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<br /></div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
Fayed — who bought Fulham in 1997, a few months before his son, Dodi,
died in a car crash with Diana, Princess of Wales — was unrepentant.
When asked in 2011 about whether a statue of Jackson made sense at the
fabled stadium, he said, “If some stupid fans don’t understand or
appreciate such a gift, they can go to hell.” For good measure, he
invited these unbelievers to root for Chelsea, Fulham’s archrival, which
plays two subway stops away. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<br /></div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
Fayed got his way until he sold Fulham in July to <a href="http://www.forbes.com/profile/shahid-khan/" title="From
Forbes.com">Shahid
Khan</a>, the billionaire owner of the N.F.L.’s Jacksonville Jaguars. At
the news conference announcing the deal, Fayed threatened to cut off
Khan’s signature handlebar mustache if the statue were removed. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<br /></div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
Two months later, Khan made perhaps the most important decision of his
young tenure as owner: Jacko would go. “Our supporters’ views on the
statue have been made clear,” he said in a statement last week. Removing
the statue, he said, was “the right thing for Fulham Football Club.”
</div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
The decision won Khan instant credibility with fans who were otherwise
unhappy with the team’s slow start this season. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<br /></div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
For now, the statue of Jackson will remain in a warehouse while Fayed
decides its fate. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
Martin Jol, Fulham’s manager, is considering bidding for the statue and
either auctioning it for charity or adding it to his art collection,
which includes nearly two dozen other statues and several hundred
paintings. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
“It would be nice to keep it in the Fulham family, if he wants,” Jol
said, referring to Fayed. </div>

The Uruguayan striker was determined to leave Anfield
during the transfer window, but the club's managing director says the
striker will be offered fresh terms next year</div>
<a href="http://www.goal.com/en-us/teams/england/98/liverpool?ICID=HP_TN_14" target="_blank">Liverpool</a> managing director Ian Ayre says the club
will offer <a href="http://www.goal.com/en-us/people/uruguay/16639/luis-su%C3%A1rez?ICID=CP_98" target="_blank">Luis Suarez</a> a new contract at the end of the
season.<br /><br />The Uruguay international made no secret of his desire to
leave Anfield over the summer, with Arsenal seeing two bids for the
striker rejected, and Ayre recently claimed the player had damaged
Liverpool’s brand.<br /><br />Suarez returned to Brendan Rodgers' starting
lineup for Wednesday’s Capital One Cup defeat to Manchester United after
serving a 10-game ban and Ayre is determined to retain his services for
the foreseeable future.<br /><br />"We sort of begin those type of
discussions two years in from the end, so it'll be the end of this
season," Ayre told<em> Sky Sports News.</em><br /><br />"We'll do the same
with everyone and at the right time we'll have the discussion with Luis
and his advisers."<br /><br />Rodgers accused Arsenal of "lacking class"
after submitting a controversial 40,000,001 pound bid for the striker in
the hope of triggering a supposed buy-out clause in his contract, but
Ayre insists he holds no grudges against the Gunners or counterpart Ivan
Gazidis.<br /><br />"That's the transfer market," he continued. "I have
huge respect for Arsenal, they're a great football club, with some great
people. I'm good friends with Ivan. Trying to get players, making
offers for players, it's all part of the game.<br /><br />"Anyone who says
it isn't and makes a big noise is not really being honest. Everybody
does the same thing in football, everybody's trying to achieve the same
thing, we're all trying our best to buy the best players for the best
price."

Lionel Messi has responded angrily to reports that he made a gesture
after being substituted in Barcelona's 4-1 win at home to Real Sociedad. </div>
<div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" itemprop="description">
<br /></div>
The 26-year-old scored his seventh league goal of the
season in the win but was taken off by coach Gerardo Martino with 10
minutes left.<br />
<br />
<a class="external-link" href="http://futbol.as.com/futbol/2013/09/24/primera/1380053357_113709.html"><span class="text">Madrid-based tabloid AS</span><span class="external-link-icon"> </span></a>
reported that Messi was unhappy with being replaced.
<br />
<div id="story_continues_2">
<br /></div>
<div id="story_continues_2">
But Messi said: "I didn't mean to make any
gesture when I came off. I will not accept that certain media tell
lies." </div>
<div id="story_continues_2">
<br /></div>
Neymar opened the scoring with his first league goal
for Barca before Messi headed home the Brazilian's cross.<br />
<br />
Sergio Busquets scored Barcelona's third from 20 yards
after Messi had hit the crossbar and Sociedad pulled one back when
Alberto De La Bella tapped in.<br />
<br />
Messi then beat three men to lay on the fourth for Marc
Bartra before he was substituted for Sergi.
<br />
<a class="external-link" href="https://www.facebook.com/LeoMessi?ref=ts&fref=ts"><span class="text">Messi later wrote on his Facebook page:</span><span class="external-link-icon"> </span></a>
"Nobody likes to be replaced, but we must accept it because it is
the best for our team.<br />
<br />
"What I will not accept is that certain media tell lies
about any situation that happens around me."
<br />
Barcelona have won all six La Liga games but are only
ahead of
<strong> Atletico Madrid
</strong>
on goal difference after they held on to beat Osasuna 2-1.<br />
<br />
Diego Costa scored twice for Atletico,
<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24198546" title="Bale set

Elche on Wednesday.

<div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" itemprop="description">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Fulham won at home for the first time since April by punishing a
wasteful Everton in the Capital One Cup. </b></span></div>
<div id="lead">
<div class="story-feature image full-width">
<img alt="Darren Bent " height="225" itemprop="image" src="http://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/images/70103000/jpg/_70103327_70103323.jpg" width="400" />
</div>
</div>
The visitors took the lead when forward Gerard Deulofeu
threaded the ball to Steven Naismith who found the net.<br />
<br />
Barcelona loanee Deulofeu created several chances but
Dimitar Berbatov equalised from close-range.
<br />
Substitute Darren Bent then collected a Giorgos
Karagounis free-kick after 68 minutes and fired in to end Everton's
unbeaten start to the season.<br />
<br />
<div id="story_continues_2">
Victory for Martin Jol's side was their
third of the season and offers some relief for the Dutch manager, whose
team had lost five and drawn one of their previous six home games.
</div>
Roberto Martinez's first defeat as Everton boss looked
unlikely after his side dominated the first half and they took a
well-deserved lead through Naismith after 12 minutes.<br />
<br />
Romelu Lukaku and the excellent Deulofeu kept Everton
on top, but they could not find a second despite a host of first-half
opportunities.<br />
<br />
Berbatov, who returned from injury, levelled with his
first of the season nine minutes after the break.
<br />
And Bent then wrapped the win up in front of England
manager Roy Hodgson less than three minutes after his introduction from
the bench.<br />
<br />
Only 10 days after some Fulham fans chanted "Jol out"
<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23999576">following a 1-1
draw with West Brom,</a>
the home supporters cheered their team off at the end as Fulham
reached the fourth round for the first time since 2004.

<div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" itemprop="description">
Arsenal forward Theo Walcott will miss England's World Cup qualifiers
against Montenegro and Poland as he will have abdominal surgery on
Wednesday. </div>
<div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" itemprop="description">
<br /></div>
Walcott, 24, did not play in
<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24098512">Arsenal's win
against Stoke</a>
on Sunday despite initially being named in the team.
<br />
"Theo will be out for a few weeks," said Gunners
manager Arsene Wenger.<br />
<br />
"He has developed some damage to his posterior
abdominal wall. It's not a hernia, but it's a little structural problem
in his abdomen."<br />
<br />
England face Montenegro on 11 October, before
completing their qualification group fixtures against Poland four days
later.<br />
<br />
<div id="story_continues_2">
Roy Hodgson's side need to win those two
qualifiers to guarantee qualification for Rio 2014.
</div>
Walcott, who scored his first goal of the season in
<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24044269">the 2-1 win
over Marseille in the Champions League last Wednesday,</a>
was replaced in the starting line-up against Stoke by 18-year-old
German Serge Gnabry.
<br />
He has suffered with a similar injury before, having
<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/21905792">withdrawn from
the England squad with a pelvic muscle problem in March</a>
and on that occasion was out for three weeks.<br />
<br />
But Wenger was quick to brush away any major concerns,
adding: "He will have the procedure in Germany on Wednesday and, because
it's so minor, we can begin his rehab immediately.<br />
<br />
"We are pleased it's being dealt with quickly and he
shouldn't miss too many Arsenal matches. But he will miss the
forthcoming international matches with England."

<div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" itemprop="description">
Jermain Defoe scored twice as Tottenham
powered past Aston Villa and into the fourth round of the League Cup.
</div>
The England striker set Spurs on their way by glancing
home Lewis Holtby's clever pass before completing the victory with a
late finish.
<br />
Paulinho and Nacer Chadli were also on the scoresheet
as Tottenham dominated.
<br />
<div id="story_continues_2">
</div>
<div id="story_continues_2">
However, Villa should have been awarded a
penalty early in the second half when Nicklas Helenius was impeded by
Jan Vertonghen. </div>
<div id="story_continues_2">
<br /></div>
The visitors only led by a single goal when Danish
striker Helenius nipped in front of Vertonghen and bizarrely had his
shorts pulled down by the tumbling Belgian defender.<br />
<br />
However, much to the bemusement of Villa manager Paul
Lambert, referee Jon Moss turned down the penalty appeals.<br />
<br />
That might have given Villa a way back into a match
which Tottenham dominated, despite manager
<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24150719">Andre
Villas-Boas's pre-match assertions that it would be a risk for his
players to play</a>
so soon after Sunday's victory over Cardiff.<br />
<br />
Only Vertonghen, Kyle Walker and Paulinho retained
their places in the Spurs side as new boys Erik Lamela,
<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23903926">a club record
£25.7m signing from Roma,</a>
and Vlad Chiriches were given opportunities.
<br />
And Defoe, who has now scored six goals in his three
first-team starts this season, relished the clever balls being played in
behind the defence by Lamela.<br />
<br />
Villa goalkeeper Jed Steer, making his second start of
the season after a summer move from Norwich, kept his side in the game
with a number of fine saves.<br />
<br />
But he could do nothing about Defoe's opener at the end
of the first half as the striker deftly headed home Holtby's cute clip
over the defence.<br />
<br />
Following Helenius's failure to win an early
second-half penalty, Paulinho doubled Tottenham's lead when he lost his
marker and poked in Holtby's corner at the near post.<br />
<br />
Villa winger Aleksandar Tonev forced Brad Friedel into a
save with a stinging 25-yard shot but Tottenham completed their
convincing win as the hosts tired.<br />
<br />
First Chadli latched on to a loose pass and rifled in
at the near post before Defoe skipped around Steer to tap in his second
of the night.<br />
<br />
<strong> Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert:
</strong>
<br />
On Nicklas Helenius getting his shorts pulled down:
"That was a big moment. It thought it was a pen. I don't think anybody
could believe it. It was a strange decision.<br />
<br />
"I didn't think there were four goals in that. We had a
lot of players out injured and they were too much for us. But I
couldn't fault the lads for effort.<br />
<br />
"We gave it a go in the second half and their second
goal was a really poor goal from our point of view.
<br />
"There are a couple of plus points from individual
performances. Nathan Baker is coming back after injury. Marc Albrighton
was excellent."<br />
<br />
<strong> Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas:
</strong>
<br />
"We've shown a great team spirit this year. The players
are all buzzing for opportunities like this so most of them really
performed tonight.<br />
<br />
"We have great strength in depth so it allows us to
throw such a strong team on the pitch after playing just two days ago.<br />
<br />
"The best thing about this evening is that the players
who came in responded well and respected the competition."

<a data-rapid_p="1" href="http://www.goal.com/en-us/teams/england/96/chelsea" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Chelsea</a> swept past <a data-rapid_p="2" href="http://www.goal.com/en-us/teams/england/1143/swindon" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Swindon Town</a> to make it into the
fourth round of the <a data-rapid_p="3" href="http://www.goal.com/en-us/news/2920/capital-one-cup" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Capital One Cup</a>.<br /><br />Juan Mata and
David Luiz, who had notably been left out of the Blues lineup against
Fulham on Saturday, were both involved in a 2-0 win at the County
Ground.<br />
<br />
<div class="first">
Two goals in six first-half minutes from
Fernando Torres and Ramires gave the visitors the win, although their
success was tempered by the loss of Marco van Ginkel and Ramires to
injury.</div>
<div class="first">
<br /></div>
Torres opened the scoring in the 29th minute with a poacher’s finish
after Mata saw his shot saved by Wes Foderingham. Ramires doubled the
lead soon after as he lifted a ball into the net following a neat pass
from Torres, who had wriggled free outside the area in expert fashion.<br />
<br />
As well as the returns of Mata and Luiz, Jose Mourinho gave Mark
Schwarzer his Chelsea debut in goal, Cesar Azpilicueta made his 50th
club appearance, and Kevin De Bruyne and Willian started as well.<br />
<br />
Swindon boss Mark Cooper made one change from the side victorious
against Bristol City last time out, with Alex Pritchard replacing Louis
Thompson in midfield.<br />
<br />
Chelsea was forced into an early change when young Dutchman Van
Ginkel twisted his knee after falling awkwardly, with the 20-year-old
appearing to be in a lot of pain as he hobbled off in the 10th minute.
After the injury and a tight opening to the game, Mourinho’s men had the
first sight of goal midway through the half.<br />
<br />
Mata threaded a neat ball into Torres's path, and the striker cut in
front of his man but saw Foderingham make a save with his head to deny
him. Minutes later, though, the former Liverpool man made no mistake as
he broke the deadlock after neat build-up play between Ramires and Mata.<br />
<br />
Mata’s shot was saved by Foderingham, but Torres was on hand to
pounce on the loose ball and poke home from a matter of inches.<br />
<br />
Torres then turned provider in the 35th minute as the visitors
doubled the lead. The Spaniard played a perfectly weighted pass for
Ramires to run onto inside the penalty area, leaving the Brazilian to
calmly lift the ball over the advancing keeper and into the back of the
net.<br />
<br />
Danny N’Guessan thought he had halved the deficit for the hosts early
in the second half when he met a Jay McEveley free kick and headed past
Schwarzer, but the goal was ruled out for offside. Swindon provided
more of an attacking threat after the break, but Schwarzer was rarely
tested in the Chelsea goal.<br />
<br />
<div class="mceContentBody " id="tinymce">
The hosts were nearly punished
for pressing forward in the closing minutes but Torres and Willian were
both denied by resilient defending as the Premier League side eased
through to round four.</div>

Fatih Terim’s third spell as Galatasaray manager has come to a shock end after the club decided to part ways with him following a two hour meeting at the Turk Telekom Arena on Tuesday.
The Istanbul club said they had terminated Terim's contract after he declined to accept a proposed two-year extension to his term.
In a statement on its website, Galatasaray said "recent developments" had started to damage the club's "values", without elaborating. Turkish media have been reporting growing discord between Terim and the club's management.
"First and foremost, our board of directors are responsible for protecting these values and passing these on to future generations," the club said in the statement.
"As part of this responsibility, in order to prevent further deterioration of our community, our board of directors decided unanimously to notify Mr. Terim that his contract has been terminated," it said.
Terim had only recently begun his third stint at the helm of the Turkish national team after they departed with Abdullah Avci, but he was only expected to job-share until the end of their current World Cup campaign when his country would appoint a permanent successor.
The legendary Turkish manager leaves Galatasaray sitting in 11th place in the Super Lig, albeit with a game in hand after their clash with leaders Besiktas was abandoned after the pitch was invaded by dozens of fans.
Terim led Galatasaray to the Champions League quarter-finals last season, with major summer signings Didier Drogba and Wesley Sneijder playing an influential role, but last week they were thrashed 6-1 at home by Real Madrid in the same competition.
Roberto Mancini has emerged as the early front runner to fill the vacant managerial position with several Italian and Turkish sources claiming he's already in Istanbul for negotiations, according to Football Italia.
