Redknapp admit Beckham interest

Could David Beckham ever play in English Premier League again? Harry Redknapp said that he is interested in signing former England Captain if he becomes available next season.

Beckham 33, is currently on loan at AC Milan until the end of the Serie A in the summer to complete the Major League Soccer campaign.

After a successful few months in the San Siro, AC Milan have expressed an interest in re-signing Beckham once the MLS campaign comes to an end, while Spurs have been best suitors for the midfielder should he consider another loan move to maintain his fitness ahead of his possible involvement for England at the World Cup in South Africa as England coach Fabio Capello only picks his team according to fitness and form.

Harry insists he has not considered a move for David but he would be in the running to sign him, if he became available.

"David Beckham is a fantastic player, but he is also a terrific role model and a terrific professional. If the opportunity was there to sign him, any club would have to think about it. He would still be a terrific player. His delivery of the ball remains exceptional, he is a great trainer and he is a local boy from up the road."

“Imagine what the young players at the club could get from someone like that. When I signed Teddy Sheringham for Portsmouth in 2003, he was worth his weight in gold. He was such a great professional that the other players all looked up to him in training. He did everything right, he was superb around the place, and that is what it is about.
"I have met him only once or twice, but he seems a great lad. To have someone like Beckham at your club . . . if the opportunity came and someone said he was available, any club would have to think about it.”

Man Utd move three points clear

Manchester United moved top of the table with a 2-0 comforatble win over Portsmouth at Old Trafford. Wayne Rooney’s early strike put the champions in the lead as United sought to reclaim top spot after Liverpool's 4-4 draw with Arsenal on Tuesday night.

And substitute Michael Carrick settled any lingering nerves by firing home a wonderful second goal on 82^nd minute to see off Pompey.

After sitting out United’s penalty shootout defeat by Everton in the FA cup semifinal on Sunday, Rooney and Ronaldo returned for United as they set about seizing control of the league and they were given the perfect start.

United were in front via their first dangerous attack on nine minutes as Anderson's brilliant pass played Ryan Giggs in behind the defence and he rolled the ball across the six-yard box to provide Rooney with a simple finish. Giggs and John O’Shea both missed chances to stretch the lead before halftime against an unadventurous Portsmouth side who created little threat.

There were still few jitters around Old Trafford, however, until Carrick made the points safe, supplying a polished finish to a ball from midfielder Paul Scholes who was making his 600^th appearance for the club.

United’s pleasure was enhanced by news of Chelsea’s stalemate with Everton at Stamford bridge.

Arsenal’s amazing run of form may cost Liverpool a premier league title

Arsenal’s amazing run of form may cost Liverpool a premier league title, which they crave since 1990. As they played out an astonishing 4-4 draw with Arsenal at Anfield.

Russian playmaker Andrey Arshavin scored all four of Arsenal’s goals in a nail bitting encounter and look to have secured a vistory with just minute to play for but there was still plenty of time for Yossi Benayoun to snatch a point for Liverpool and send them on top of the table on goal difference with Man Utd playing on Wednesday.

Early stages of the game Liverpool had a good share of possession and were looking very dangerous. The Gunners had take nsurprise 1-0 lead into half-time, with Arshavin crashing the ball in off the crossbar after 36 minutes.

After half time, Liverpool deservely got their rewards for their early possessions with Fernando Torress levelled with the power full header from Dirk Kuyt’s cross and then Yossi Benayoun put Liverpool 2-1 ahead minutes later. Arshavin scored his second in 67 minutes after dispossessing Arbeloa and the Russian got third of the evening to silence the Anfield crowd.

Liverpool responded again and made it 3-3 thanks to a clinical finish from Torres 18 minutes from time, but the drama was far from over as Arshavin's fourth was cancelled out by Benayoun.
