The first one was ridiculous...Carrick stuck his leg out like he was a dog taking a pee on a hydrant. Never seen a United team like thhis one in all the years I've watched the BPL.
Stoke beats United 2-1 on this cracker of a goal.

City looks terrible in midfield and defense. Chelsea is pressing them all over and it doesn't look like they know what to do.

The one thing I like about this past week/weekend was that Jose called out City on FFP (even though all the top English clubs aren't exactly innocent).

That's not really true though.

It's really Man City, Chelsea, then everybody else. Also at that link, LOL @ Stoke.

Amazing how quickly his fortunes have turned. It may seem a bit harsh after he led them to a trophy last season, but they had to do something to turn things around because they are on relegation form. You have to wonder what kind of toll their participation in Europe has taken on their domestic season.

*turns on Liverpoool v. Arsenal*
*eagerly awaits 606*
While I don't mind seeing them get put to the sword they way my team has been, this really sucks for Spurs' chances at getting 4th place. I'll take consolation in the fact that Liverpool has performed like this before at times this season, yet they have still dropped points at times to keep the teams chasing them in it.

I don't care about the score. I'm upset by two things:
1. The astounding lack of intensity. It's February, they're top by two points, and they decide to show up and walk their baby dicks around the pitch. Those Fabregas era teams that people said never showed up in big games never looked as pathetic as Arsenal did in the first half.
2. The lack of pragmatism. Everyone knows Arsenal can't defend set pieces or breakaways. Liverpool lead the league in set piece goals and breakaway goals. Chelsea gave the blueprint on how to get a result in this game on Monday and Arsenal decided to turn up like they were playing Derby County. This team is not talented enough to beat good teams 6-5.
