He’s young and for some reason he has gone against all his

“He’s young and for some reason he has gone against all his education and all his practice to try and do something different and he has come unstuck from that. He has to learn from that and I have told him that.”A superb save from Shay Given, plus a little help from the post, had kept out Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, and Craig Bellamy’s conversion then tied the scores at 3-3 after Newcastle missed their first two penalties. Frank Lampard put Chelsea ahead before Alan Shearer struck the bar and Laurent Robert’s effort was saved by Cudicini.In between, Given kept out Damien Duff, diving to his right, so when Robert Huth blasted his penalty into the roof of the net, Chelsea led 2-0. Kieron Dyer converted his effort, but so did Eidur Gudjohnsen before Lee Bowyer, booed as he strode into the area, placed his shot into Cudicini’s left-hand corner.Hasselbaink had the chance to win it at 3-2 but the Newcastle keeper guessed right, the ball spilling out of his grasp and hitting the post before rolling out. Bellamy, Joe Keenan, Jonathan Woodgate and John Terry all then converted before Jenas’ chip sailed over.The two sides had fought out an exciting, but goalless, 90 minutes in which Chelsea appeared the more dangerous. Hasselbaink and Gudjohnsen linked cleverly in attack, but Given was in top form and pulled off a magnificent save to deny Lampard from 25 yards in the second half.It was not all one-way traffic, though, with Newcastle threatening in the first half through Shola Ameobi. Robson, who started with Carl Cort and Ameobi up front introduced his first-choice attack at the interval, but Bellamy nor Shearer could make the most of their chances.Chelsea, who remained unchanged, continued to dominate.

Glen Johnson saw a cross almost catch out Given, who had to be alert to turn the ball over his crossbar. Soon after, Given’s headed clearance under pressure from Gudjohnsen eventually dropped for Boudewijn Zenden to lob just wide of an empty net.As Chelsea continued to dominate, Jesper Gronkjaer appealed optimistically for a penalty as he tumbled under Andy O’Brien’s challenge, though had he stayed on his feet he would have been presented with a tap-in as Given and O’Brien got in a muddle.The Chelsea manager, Claudio Ranieri, introduced Duff with 10 minutes remaining, but despite the audible expectation of the crowd each time he got possession, the Irish winger could not force the breakthrough.Birmingham finished third in the tournament after beating Malaysia 4-0 on Saturday.Newcastle United: Given; Hughes, O’Brien, Woodgate, Bernard; Solano, Speed, Jenas, Viana; Cort, Ameobi. Substitutes: Harper, Griffin, Dyer, Shearer, Bellamy, Chopra, Bowyer, Caldwell, Ambrose, Bramble, Robert.Chelsea: Cudicini; Johnson, Terry, Huth, Bridge; Gronkjaer, Lampard, Nicolas, Zenden; Hasselbaink, Gudjohnsen.

Everton will be without the striker Wayne Rooney for the first two games of the Premiership season following his weekend injury scare, but the teenage striker should be back to full fitness for England’s European Championship qualifying double-header against Macedonia and Liechtenstein in early September. Rooney immediately returned to Liverpool from Scotland for medical assessment.

An X-ray revealed no break but a scan confirmed the injury, which will keep him out of action for four weeks, meaning will miss Everton’s season opener away to Arsenal on 16 August and the home match against Fulham the following Saturday.Rooney, who was outstanding on his first competitive start for England in the 2-0 win over Turkey at the Stadium of Light in April, will also miss England’s friendly against Croatia on 20 August, but Everton’s head physiotherapist, Mick Rathbone, believes he should be back for the trip to Macedonia on 6 September and the home match with Liechtenstein at Old Trafford four days later.Rathbone said: “Wayne had an X-ray in Liverpool on Saturday night and fortunately there was no obvious break. He has been for an MRI scan this morning and visited a consultant who reviewed the information and confirmed the diagnosis as damaged ankle ligaments.”He will return to see the specialist in 12 days and we anticipate that he will be out for around four weeks.”Rooney was at the centre of a club versus country dispute in May when the Everton manager, David Moyes, said he did not want his prodigy to play in a friendly in South Africa. Securing a new goalkeeper remains the priority but despite a beneficial pre-season trip to Kuala Lumpur and the arrival of two exciting new signings already, Bruce is keeping his expectations low.Nevertheless, he and his chairman, David Gold, are well on the way in their plan to establish Birmingham as a top-flight club, and after finishing as the leading Midlands club last term, they are confident of it coming to fruition.”When I look at the strength and depth of the squad, I believe we are far, far stronger than this time last year going into the campaign,” said Bruce after clinching third place in the inaugural FA Premier League Asia Cup yesterday “So I am delighted about that We waited 17 years to get into the Premiership. Our second year will be just as difficult.”It is a tough, tough league and to get there and stay there is a tough job The players last year did terrifically well They have got to reproduce that again. My aim is to establish Birmingham as a Premier League club and the one thing you need in the Premiership, without a doubt, is a squad.”. The great amateur golfer Bobby Jones once said that he could take everything out of his life except his experiences at St Andrews and still have had a rich, full life.
