Subject :LONDON - In an electrifying Champions League performance, Arsenal striker Danny Welbeck scored a hat
LONDON - In an electrifying Champions League performance, Arsenal striker Danny Welbeck scored a hat trick that even surprised manager Arsene Wenger. Deatrich Wise Jr. Patriots Jersey .If he keeps up the form from Wednesdays win over Galatasaray, the $27 million Wenger spent to bring Welbeck from the Manchester United bench to the Arsenal front line could prove to be one of the bargains of the year.It is good that slowly he gains confidence and finishes well, Wenger said after the 4-1 win over Galatasaray. Hopefully the hat trick will help him gain confidence. It is not just his finishing because he wants to help the team. His team play is good as well, his teamwork and work-rate. I believe that, technically, he is very sound, a good passer of the ball.Welbeck can show the treble wasnt a one-off when Arsenal travels across London with its notoriously porous defence to play Chelsea. Yet, Chelseas new striker has even eclipsed the instant impact Welbeck has made. Diego Costa, who joined from Atletico Madrid for around $53 million, has scored eight goals in six league games a€” even with left thigh problems a€” to ensure Chelsea tops the fledgling standings.Weve seen it before, some strikers take months and months, but hes hit the ground running, Chelsea captain John Terry said. Without speaking a word of English he gets by and gets on great with everyone. He puts himself about but gets up and battles on, and plays with little niggles.Chelsea is six points ahead of Arsenal, which is in its familiar position of fourth.Heres a look at the pick of the other Premier League games this weekend:___LACKLUSTER LIVERPOOLWith just two wins from six league games, life at Liverpool without Luis Suarez continues to be a struggle. And Daniel Sturridge could still be sidelined on Saturday when last seasons runners-up host West Bromwich Albion. Europe has provided no respite either, with Brendan Rodgers team losing 1-0 at Basel on Wednesday in the Champions League.I thought we were too soft all over the pitch, captain Steven Gerrard said in Switzerland. I thought they wanted it more, which is very disappointing. Conceding again from a set-piece isnt good enough, so we need to get it right.___POCHETTINOS PROBLEMSWhen Mauricio Pochettino switched from Southampton to Tottenham, this wasnt how he envisaged the start to the season. Tottenham, having opened the league campaign with two wins, has now gone four matches without a victory.Southampton, despite an exodus of star players, has not imploded as bookmakers predicted with their relegation odds, but is sitting second in the league. Ronald Koemans side has won four of its opening six league fixtures heading into Sundays match at Pochettinos Tottenham.One of Pochettinos problems is striker Emmanuel Adebayor only scoring once in the league.We know always a striker maybe during some periods finds it difficult to score, but he made a lot of effort for the team, Pochettino said.__ELSEWHERE...Alan Pardew seems to be the Premier League manager under the greatest pressure, with Newcastle playing Swansea on Saturday with just three points and second from bottom.Manchester United hosts Everton on Sunday with a chance to win back-to-back matches for the first time under Louis van Gaal this season. Captain Wayne Rooney begins a three-match suspension after being sent off in last weekends 2-1 win over West Ham.Third-place Manchester City travels to Aston Villa on Saturday, which is just a point behind the champions, after another frustrating Champions League night. A draw with Roma on Tuesday left City with just one point from two group stage matches.Also Saturday, newcomers Leicester and Burnley meet, Sunderland plays Stoke, and Hull hosts Crystal Palace. Theres another London derby on Sunday with West Ham hosting Queens Park Rangers. Derek Rivers Jersey .com) - The Los Angeles Kings peppered Ryan Miller with shot after shot. Deatrich Wise Jr. Youth Jersey .com) - The Toronto Blue Jays will look to snap a three-game skid Friday night when they continue their road trip in the opener of a three-game set against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park. http://www.patriotsjerseysauthentic.com/Deatrich-Wise-Jr-Super-Bowl-Jersey/ . The Rangers centre left early in Game 1 with an upper body injury after being checked by Canadiens defenceman Mike Weaver and has not played since. Brassard told reporters after practice that he was good to go. That brought a smile to the face of Rangers coach Alain Vigneault.MINNEAPOLIS -- When a routine single skipped under the glove of Michael Bourn and started rolling toward the wall, things couldve gotten ugly for the Cleveland Indians. Zach McAllister made sure that didnt happen. McAllister won for the first time in almost three months, Ryan Raburn homered and the Indians beat the Minnesota Twins 5-2 on Tuesday night. With Minnesota down 5-1 in the sixth inning, Joe Mauer scored from first base on a single by Justin Morneau that skipped under the glove of centre fielder Michael Bourn for an error and rolled all the way to the warning track. McAllister fanned Josh Willingham and Oswaldo Arcia to end the inning and strand Mauer at third, getting several pats on the back from teammates as he walked back to the dugout. "Our defence has been great for us all year long. For us as pitchers, its our job to pick them up when they dont always do what we expect of them," McAllister said. "For us to be able to pick them up, its exciting and its great to know that they have our back and we have them when we need to." Cleveland had lost seven of its last eight and posted a 6.00 ERA during that stretch. Coming off his worst start of the season Thursday against Detroit, McAllister (5-7) bounced back and held Minnesota to one earned run and four hits in six innings. He struck out seven in his first win since May 23. Cleveland manager Terry Francona said the sixth inning was the highlight of McAllisters night. "Were getting to a point where youre thinking about maybe going to the bullpen," Francona said. "Hes up around 100 pitches and guys have seen him a couple times. He executed very well there." Josh Willingham homered for the Twins in the second inning, Minnesotas 23rd straight run from a home run -- an MLB record. But the Twins went 0 for 5 with runners in scoring position and are now 3-for-48 in those situations over their last six games. Mauer scoring on Bourns error was the first time Minnesota scored without a home run since Aug. 7. "We cant rely on home runs all the time," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "Its nice when we hit them but were going to have to drive in some of these runs with less than two outs and a mans on third. Unfortunately we didnt do it again tonnight. Antonio Garcia Patriots Jersey. " The Indians led 3-1 in the sixth when Samuel Deduno (7-6) hit Carlos Santana in the toe with a pitch. Plate umpire Adam Hamari initially ruled that Dedunos pitch didnt hit him, but awarded Santana first base after conferring with the rest of his crew and changing the call. Rayburn then lined a home run into the left-centre field bleachers, a much-needed blast for a team that got shut out on Monday night by rookie Andrew Albers making his second major-league start. "You go through stretches where you cant get a hit. Its not like we havent been swinging the bat well," Rayburn said. "Last night, I dont know how many great plays they made off of us. Thats part of the game." McAllisters strong start was a boost for an Indians team that entered Tuesday in third place instead of second in the AL Central for the first time since June 17. After McAllister exited, Cody Allen and Joe Smith each pitched a perfect inning. Chris Perez allowed a two-out double to Arcia in the ninth, but retired Trevor Plouffe to end the game and record his 19th save in 22 chances. Bourn, Jason Kipnis and Michael Brantley added RBIs for Cleveland. "The game just didnt seem like it went anywhere. I wish I had more to offer than that," Gardenhire said. "I think about the game and nothing really happened too awfully exciting. Sammy gave up the runs, and we didnt do anything offensively." NOTES: The Indians signed former Blue Jays No. 1 pick David Cooper to a minor league deal and sent him to their spring training complex in Goodyear, Ariz. The 26-year-old first-baseman is expected to join Triple-A Columbus later this month. ... Minnesota acquired LHP Miguel Sulbaran from the Dodgers to complete the trade for C Drew Butera. The 19-year-old was 6-4 with a 3.01 ERA in 23 games for the Dodgers low Class A team. Minnesota GM Terry Ryan said he expects Sulbaran to be a starter in the Twins system. ... Twins rookie Kyle Gibson (2-3, 6.43 ERA) will try to pitch more than six innings for the first time in his career in Wednesdays series finale. ... Carlos Carrasco (0-4, 7.75 ERA) starts for Cleveland and will try to win for the first time since beating Arizona on June 29, 2011. Carrasco has lost his last 10 decisions.
