For those that don't know Roman Abramovich (Chelsea owner and psychopath) is on the right and to the left is the stream of Chelsea managers that have all hit the axe.

Considering he's been named interim manager until the end of the season, I'd wager that they will keep him until then. They are going to make a full on run at Pep Guardiola next summer.

Were this a normal team I might agree, but Chelsea is far from a normal team. Di Matteo won them the FA Cup (Bastards beat Liverpool :() and the Champions league last year, not to mention that they are only 4 points behind City for the lead with a lot of football left to be played. So it's not like the wheels were coming off, not to mention, during the MUFC match they got a lot of unlucky calls and bad breaks.

It will be real interesting to see what happens if Benitez comes in and drops the next 2-3 games, which is highly unlikely (Fullham and West Ham are good teams but I think talent wise they won't be able to sustain 90 minutes), but it is possible they get taken out behind the woodshed and beaten badly by City on Sunday.

No one will ever say "Abramovich is a really patient person" in a serious sentence, that club has wasted a lot of money sacking managers before their time.

Liverpool dominate the first half at Swansea but have nothing to show for it.

One goal disallowed by a questionable off side call, then Sterling fires one of the cross bar. That particularly sucked since he's plugged in for Fellaini in my line up today.

Still laughable it's been nine managers in nine years under the Mad Russian.

Not surprisingly, Rafa was booed today at the Bridge (where it was a scoreless draw). The supporters should be booing Abramovich. He's the one who keeps sacking managers.

Tremendous run by Gareth Bale finds Aaron Lennon alone at the far post for the tap-in. 1-0 Spurs. Arsenal also up 1-0 on Everton courtesy of Theo Walcott.

Great goal by Swansea. Nathan Dyer cross finds Pablo Hernandez, who one touches a volley back across the box for Michu with the side footed tap-in. 1-0 Swansea over West Brom.

Edit. Make it 2-0 Swansea. Pablo Hernandez pokes a clever ball through the box to Wayne Routledge, who's deflected shot finds the back of the net. Not the start West Brom were looking for.

Goals are flying in now. Two deflected shots go in a few seconds a part from one another. Gareth Bale's deflected free kick has Spurs up 2-0 on Liverpool, while RVP has United up 1-0 over West Ham in the 1st minute after his deflected shot went in as well.

Edit. RVP's goal came on 31 seconds, the fastest goal scored in the BPL this season.

Fellaini equalizes for Everton from distance against Arsenal. Here's a pic of the Garteth Bale deflected free-kick goal against Liverpool courtesy of the Premier League.

Kyle Walker saves the day for Spurs. Luis Suarez's shot cleared literally off the line after a scramble in front of goal. With the outside of his boot no less.
