The Arsenal manager Arsÿne Wenger has told the England coach Sven Goran Eriksson to forget about picking the centre-back Martin Keown for the Swede's first international in charge against Spain a week on Wednesday. The Arsenal manager Arsÿne Wenger has told the England coach Sven Goran Eriksson to forget about picking the centre-back Martin Keown for the Swede's first international in charge against Spain a week on Wednesday. The 35-times capped defender, who captained England in the last World Cup qualifier against Finland in Helsinki in October, will be out of action for at least two more weeks with a knee ligament injury."He's still at least two weeks away yet and for the next England game I think they can rule him out," Wenger said.The former Arsenal and Leeds midfielder David Rocastle is fighting against cancer. The 33-year-old has been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, which attacks the immune system, and has been undergoing chemotherapy for several weeks.Rocastle made his name at Arsenal where he helped to win the League championship in 1989 and 1991 as well as picking up a League Cup winners' medal in 1987.He was capped 14 times by England and also enjoyed spells at Leeds and Chelsea, but could not recapture his form and found himself loaned out to Norwich before ending his career at Hull in 1997.Meanwhile, another former Gunner, Nicolas Anelka, has criticised Paris St-Germain supporters for treating him with a lack of respect.The former French international striker ended a goal drought by scoring in a 1-1 Champions' League draw against Milan on Wednesday.

"A lot of people are unhappy with me because I earn money," he said yesterday "They don't respect me - just for that. They forget very quickly that I work very hard every time I go on the pitch.". Michael Owen said he was "trying to shut people up" with the two-goal display that beat Roma on Thursday night. Michael Owen said he was "trying to shut people up" with the two-goal display that beat Roma on Thursday night. Owen's return to the Liverpool side after months of injury problems could not have been more timely, with the England coach Sven Goran Eriksson in the Olympic stadium and on the brink of naming his first England squad for the friendly against Spain.Owen, starting for the first time in eight matches, scored two second-half goals to clinch a 2-0 Uefa Cup fourth-round, first-leg triumph over the Serie A leaders in their own stadium.The striker said: "Maybe there was the need for me to shut people up. Not people who matter - the manager and my team-mates have never been a problem - but to score those goals when Mr Eriksson was in the stadium was just the right time."I have never felt that this next England squad was beyond me because of the problems I've had I had not torn my hamstring, it was only a little niggle I definitely never felt I would not be ready for England.

Especially this week, I have felt so good in training."Italy's largest daily paper suggested yesterday that the violence which preceded the game was the result of "premeditated guerrilla" actions by Roma fans. Corriere della Sera wrote that the knife assaults of six Liverpool fans and attacks on riot police outside Rome's Olympic stadium "looked like the insane plan of groups of Roma fans to revenge the beating of a Roma supporter [by policemen] at Bologna last Sunday.""It was not the hatred for rival fans," Corriere wrote. "It looked like a premeditated guerrilla plan."Marcos Assuncão, Roma's Brazilian midfielder, was questioned yesterday by the prosecutor leading the investigation into European Union passports illegally obtained to circumvent Italy's league limit on foreign players.The player, who joined the club in 1999, was questioned along with the Brazilian Roque Junior of Milan and Verona's Croatian winger Mario Cvitanovic, who also holds Portuguese documents. At least 24 players and seven Serie A clubs are being investigated.Investigators contend that some players claimed to have distant Italian relatives or obtained passports from other EU countries to get dual citizenship and become eligible to play as EU players who are not subject to restrictions.Marco Assuncão got a Portuguese passport but never used it and was always fielded by Roma as a non-EU player. Roma's Gabriel Batistuta said he could have applied for an Italian passport as he had a distant relative from Italy.

"But I didn't and won't because I am and I want to be an Argentine.". The FA Cup may no longer retain the same hold on the nation's sporting consciousness as it did in the days of baggy shorts and sepia prints but the competition remains the prime hope of silverware for all but one of this weekend's 16 survivors. While the Worthington Cup finalists Liverpool, like their relegation-threatened opponents Manchester City, can regard tomorrow's fifth-round tie as a pleasant diversion, the stakes are higher for the remaining seven Premiership teams. The FA Cup may no longer retain the same hold on the nation's sporting consciousness as it did in the days of baggy shorts and sepia prints but the competition remains the prime hope of silverware for all but one of this weekend's 16 survivors. While the Worthington Cup finalists Liverpool, like their relegation-threatened opponents Manchester City, can regard tomorrow's fifth-round tie as a pleasant diversion, the stakes are higher for the remaining seven Premiership teams. Arsenal may reasonably hope to qualify for next season's Champions' League, and might yet dream of winning the current competition, but they remain very aware that the FA Cup offers both prestige and a Uefa Cup place. Likewise Sunderland who, while aiming for a Champions' League spot, will be just as intent on reaching the Millennium Stadium in May as Chelsea, Leicester, Southampton, Tottenham and West Ham.With Manchester United out, and Arsenal paired with Chelsea, all will feel they have a chance So, too, the winner of the Bolton-Blackburn tie. Though promotion to the Premiership remains the priority for both, either would regard themselves as a genuine contender to be the first winners from outside the top flight since West Ham in 1980.That tie at the Reebok, and today's encounter between Wycombe and Wolves, means at least two of the final eight will be from outside the Premiership and it would be no surprise if a third should sneak in.
