Man Utd’s Ferguson shrugs off Roma ref moans
Some Roma players have accused Ferguson of criticising Fandel in an attempt to put pressure on Michel.  Defender Christian Panucci said: “Ferguson is nervous and that’s why he criticised Fandel. He’s experienced and trying to put pressure on the referee for Old Trafford.”  The United manager showed little interest in the criticism yesterday and chose instead to spell out his belief in his team. “I think the players have proved they can handle pressure,” said Ferguson. “There’s always tension when you come to this time of the season. This is when things are decided. The nature of this club is to recover well from defeat. “Losing a game is not an unusual fact of football life. Everyone loses at some point but it’s what you do about it that makes a team.”

Roeder can’t believe criticism copped by Arsenal’s Wenger
Before yesterday’s 0-0 draw with the Gunners, Roeder said: “My respect for Arsene Wenger and what he has achieved at Arsenal in the past 10 years could not be greater. “One of the reasons for this is Arsenal’s continuity and I was surprised to hear criticism levelled at him on Saturday night. “But football is such a focal point in people’s lives these days and all managers know what the climate is, but we stay in the game because we love it.”

Chelsea’s Drogba: I’ll never play for Premiership rival
He said: “It is out of the question that I could play for another English club. “I would like to spend many years here while continuing to play at my best level. It was not for nothing I decided to extend my contract with Chelsea. “It is more than two years that I have worked like a madman for the club and I still want to win trophies with them. “In any case, this team can go very far. Its room for progress is enormous. It is built to win trophies.”

Tottenham concern as Lee may miss season
According to reports in South Korea, Lee will be sidelined for at least three months after tearing the outer ligament in his left knee during last Thursday’s 2-1 Uefa Cup quarter-final first-leg defeat in Sevilla.  Tottenham, though, regard that assessment as premature and are expected to release a statement regarding the extent of Lee’s injury today, says the Guardian.
