MIAMI -- England midfielder Frank Lampard is set to head to the World Cup without a club after announcing Monday that he is leaving Chelsea. The 35-year-old Lampard has been at Chelsea for 13 years and is the clubs all-time leading scorer but has not agreed to a new deal with the Premier League team. Lampard is currently with England in Miami for two World Cup warm-up matches before travelling to Brazil on Saturday. "When I arrived at this fantastic club 13 years ago I would never have believed that I would be fortunate enough to play so many games and enjoy sharing in so much success," Lampard said. "This club has become part of my life and I have so many people to thank for the opportunity." Lampard did not say where he expects to play next season, but has long been linked with a move to Major League Soccer in the United States. Lampard, who moved across London from West Ham in 2001, leaves Stamford Bridge with 211 goals in 648 appearances. He won the Premier League three times, the Champions League and Europa League once each, four FA Cups and two League Cups. "The club will move forward, and as a Chelsea man I have no doubt that with the quality of the players that are there, they will continue with the success that we have all enjoyed over the past seasons, Lampard said. Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich was singled out for praise, with Lampard calling the Russian tycoon "the man who saved our club and took us all to new levels" following his 2003 takeover. "His desire to push the club to the top of the football world has rubbed off on everyone," Lampard said. Air Max 97 Off White 2018 . -- Olympic medallist Jennifer Abel of Laval, Que.

Cheap Air Max 97 All Blue .com) - Sixth-seeded Feliciano Lopez was a first-round winner on Monday at the Delray Beach Open tennis event.ASHBURN, Va. - Jay Gruden got the full Washington Redskins circus distraction experience all in one day. A protest against the name, a bus wreck on the way to the stadium, Robert Griffin IIIs return from an injury, a media report the coach called amateurish, and a defence that allowed a rookie quarterback to put up 29 points.And perhaps the most Redskins indicator of them all: The record is 3-6 for the fourth straight year.If ever a team needed a bye, its this one. They could use of the break to figure out how to tune out the outside noise. Sundays 29-26 loss to the Minnesota Vikings had all the makings of an all-too-typical Redskins day from the last decade or so.From a mental standpoint, you want your team to be thinking about the Minnesota Vikings, period, Gruden said Monday. I want Robert and I want the offence to be thinking about Mike Zimmers Double-A package and blitz package and how were going to attack. I want the defence to be thinking about Teddy Bridgewater and their zone-checks and what they have to do, instead of reading tweets about theres locker room separation, whatever, and having bus wrecks and all that stuff.So there was a little bit of things that mightve took our mind off the important thing, which is the Minnesota Vikings.The Redskins couldnt do much about the accident involving team buses on the way to the game — Were four tire rotations from driving off a cliff, Gruden said — and the players were largely isolated from the thousands who marched outside the stadium calling for the team to change its nickname.But a pair of media reports clearly raised some ire at the Redskins facility.One said that several members of the organization believe the order to start Griffin on Sunday came from owner Dan Snyder and general manager Bruce Allen. The other linked a group of players boisterous behaviour toward media and a public relations staffer during a Griffin group interview to an allegation that Griffin has alienated himself in the locker room.Gruden launched a blistering retort to the second report, calling it amateurish from some small-time reporter reporting fiction.But the first-year head coach is quickly learning that its aall part of the deal in Washington.dddddddddddd.Weve got a young team. We have some fragile egos here, he said. The guys are young guys, trying their best, and they read in the paper that nobody likes em and theyre alienated and blasy, blasy. It just doesnt seem right.But as a football player, as an NFL football player playing here, you have to expect it. ... The big thing is we cant let anything tear the locker room apart.All the distractions could have been neatly swept away if the same defence that disrupted Tony Romos life just six days earlier couldve done the same to Bridgewater, who led two long, answer-back drives in the fourth quarter. Gruden said the staff will spend the upcoming bye week re-examining their defensive schemes.As for Griffin, he did OK after missing six games with a dislocated ankle but made two poor throws at critical times — an interception before halftime that led to the Vikings first touchdown, and a short-armed effort on fourth-and-6 that landed short of an open Pierre Garcon in the games final two minutes. He also was sacked five times, showing hes still yet to get a good feel for pressure around him in the pocket.As for the 3-6 record, theres no telling what it portends. In 2011, the Redskins finished 5-11. In 2012, they never lost again in the regular season, going 10-6 and winning in the NFC East. In 2013, they never won again and ended up 3-13.Asked to give his team a pre-bye grade, Gruden said from a human being standpoint, Id give him an A.Bad thing is we dont get credit for being good guys, Gruden said. We get credit for wins and losses, and thats not good enough. The grade is 3-6. ... Thats probably a D or an F-plus.Notes: RB Silas Redd, who had back spasms from the bus accident and was inactive for the game, underwent an MRI on Monday. Gruden said there was no structural damage and that Redd will be fine. ... Gruden said TE Logan Paulsen has a chance of playing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after the bye. Paulsen is battling plantar fasciitis in one of his feet.___AP NFL websites: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL___Follow Joseph White on Twitter: http://twitter.com/JGWhiteAP Cheap Jerseys China NFL Jerseys China NFL Jerseys Wholesale Discount Basketball Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys Authentic Cheap Baseball Jerseys Free Shipping Cheapest College Jerseys Sale Cheap Football Jerseys China Nike NFL Jerseys Canada Wholesale NHL Jerseys From China MLB Jerseys Outlet Canada Wholesale NBA Jerseys Canada Store Cheap Soccer Jerseys China Cheap Authentic Jerseys Canada ' ' ' |
