Quaresma To Shine

Chelsea's new signing Ricardo Quaresma will take the Premier League by storm, according to his compatriot and new team-mate Ricardo Carvalho.
The Blues centre-back has welcomed the arrival of Quaresma, who joined on transfer deadline day in a loan switch from Inter Milan.
And Carvalho has hailed the move and thinks the Premier League will have to be on their guard.
"Quaresma is a very fast and explosive player who is a real warrior on the pitch, so he will be able to handle the physical nature of the Premier League," he said. "But at the same time he is a very technical player and can score goals, which will be good for us.
"He will be a huge help to us at this time of the season.
"He is a very attacking player and that is what we need at Chelsea at the moment."
Carvalho also insists that Quaresma has always been interested in the Premier League.
"At different times with the Portugal national team he would always ask about English football and was interested in what it was like," he continued.
"He could have come here last summer but he ended up going to Inter Milan with Jose Mourinho - but it has not worked out for him there.
"(Luiz Felipe) Scolari knows Quaresma well and this is an advantage for us.
"He also knows a lot of players here already, but he will need time to adapt.
"He will add more pace, which is important. Nicolas Anelka and Didier Drogba will love playing with him because he gets a lot of assists.
"We have to be strong between now and the end of the season after the defeat to Liverpool. I just want to get back to help out."

Quaresma has been given the squad number 18.

Liverpool 2 Chelsea 0

Fernando Torres struck two late goals as Liverpool revived their flagging title hopes with a deserved 2-0 victory at home to Chelsea.
The Spaniard headed home in the 89th minute after we had been reduced to 10 men by a red card for midfielder Frank Lampard and then made sure of a league double over the The Blues with a second in stoppage time.
It was a bitter blow to our title hopes although we could have few complaints as we barely mustered a shot on target even before Lampard was harshly sent off by referee Mike Reily for a tackle on Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso.
"After the Lampard sending off they had more possession, more quality, more chances in front of goal, but until then, no," Chelsea manager Luiz Felipe Scolari told Sky Sports.
"I want the referee to look at that decision on TV and change his decision. It was a foul by the other player not Lampard."
Liverpool, who had drawn their previous three Premier League matches, moved back above us into second place with 51 points from 24 games, two points behind champions Manchester United who have played a game fewer.
Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez had come under increasing scrutiny since his outburst at United manager Alex Ferguson last month and their rival's surge to the top of the table.
His decision to axe striker Robbie Keane from the squad looked baffling during a tepid first half, but Torres burst into life to spare him further inquests.
"He showed that he can score important goals and it's great to see him back so hopefully he can score more between now and the end of the season," Benitez said of Torres before adding that Keane was not leaving the club.
Torres, who has missed important chunks of the season with injuries, had been largely anonymous for most of the match as Liverpool toiled to break down the visitors.
He had not scored a league goal since October but chose the perfect moment to show what a lethal striker he is.
Cech had saved well from Alonso and substitute Yossi Benayoun after the break as Liverpool drove forward but he was powerless when Torres glided into space at the near post to head Fabio Aurelio's cross into the net.
There was a huge sense of relief among Liverpool fans, who have seen their side's attempts to win a first league title since 1990 stall in recent weeks, and they were celebrating wildly deep in stoppage time when Torres struck again after Benayoun robbed Ashley Cole.
Our only shot on target came from Salomon Kalou 16 minutes from time and the team trudged off at the final whistle with their title hopes fading rapidly.
"We were not good today, they were better for all the game," Scolari conceded. "We need to look again, and try again because we have many games and we need to fight until the last game."

Another awful display by the notorious Mike Riley.
How can Ickle Stevie get away with that disgraceful lunge on Kalou and not even get booked, then Frank gets sent off for nothing.
The red card will be rescinded but it's too little too late.
We didn't deserve to win the game but with 11 men on the pitch we'd have probably got a draw.
I hope Riley gets demoted. He deserves it.
