Three Oakland Raiders headed to the Pro Bowl
Amerson has the look of the player most capable of taking over Woodson’s playmaking in the defensive backfield. Woodson continued to play safety for the Raiders , and finished third on the team in tackles in 2013.

Before the unprecedented but anticipated sack of Jose Mourinho, he claimed the players didn’t give their all and accused them of betraying him.


Pete Rose to speak at 2 pm
It’s no secret why there has never been another known player who has gambled on baseball since Rose’s suspension. Because I’m 74 years old, and there’s a hell of a lot more behind me than in front of me.

“Absolutely and rightly so as well”, Terry said, with Chelsea only four points above the relegation zone.


PKK rebels killed in recent Turkish operations
In recent years the PKK has been pressing for greater autonomy and rights for the Kurds, Turkey’s largest minority. Turkey and Russia have been at odds since Ankara downed a Russian jet last month saying it violated its airspace.

“The last 10 years we have had such good times and the fans have supported us through this hard period and we will come out on top, sooner or later, if we keep putting in performances like that”.

The experienced Dutchman said, “I want to get some good insight before I make my decision”.

The responsibility from next Saturday’s match against Watford, until the end of the season, again rests with Guus Hiddink. But step by step – there’s a lot of games over Christmas; if we can go on a good run and climb the table over Christmas, then who knows?

“They were able to play it from left-to-right and through the middle of us, and it’s no excuse that their manager had changed”.

Chelsea’s Branislav Ivanovic might have had some woeful individual performances earlier this season, but after his recovery from injury, the vice-captain returned to the pitch singing a much improved tune.

Guus Hiddink’s success at Chelsea will depend on his ability to restore the squad’s title-winning mindset, according to Boudewijn Zenden. It is going to be hard to win every game, we know that. “Next season, Chelsea will have a different coach”.

“But up to half-time, it was far too easy for them”. The second half was kind of deflated. “So it was a very important win”.

Sam Allardyce sent on Adam Johnson in place of Sebastian Coates and switched to 4-5-1 midway through the first half, in a bid to turn the tide.

Now Hiddink’s second Chelsea reign begins.

Sam Allardyce has told the Sunderland Echo that he had harsh words for his Sunderland players after their latest 3-1 defeat against Chelsea.
