This weekend's English Premier League activity saw the "best four" all win while the 2 fakers to their domination had been both beaten. Aston Villa moved back to where everybody believed they would be, and Blackburn moved to where everybody hopes they'll remain.
The 1st large event of the season produced a vintage in forward play and a nightmare in defensive play as Manchester United wiped the floor with Manchester City 4-3 with Michael Owen popping up in the sixth minute of injury time to claim the winner after Micah Richards went walkabout rather than staying with his guy.
Mark Hughes cried foul, as the 4th official had initially revealed that the game might only have four minutes of injury play, 1 minute before City equalized in the last moment, incidentally, the festivity continued on for one minute.
Besides, the injury time played is a) at the official's judgment and b) available for both teams. I wonder if Hughes would give the goal back if it was City that had gotten it?
For utter entertainment the match was a pleasure to see, a true 7 goal affair.
Defensively the game was a calamity.
Shay Given executed 1 of the most awful blunders of his playing days for Fletcher?s first, Rio Ferdinand had an utter howler and was the distinct reason for 2 of City?s scores.
While Sir Alex Ferguson will be putting Edwin van der Sar into a kind of treatment tank to win him back playing as fast as achievable, lets simply say that Ben Foster will not be Capello?s 1st pick in South Africa.
Peter Kenyon's removal from his Head Executive role at Chelsea comes as no surprise, Eugene Tenenbaum is not a fanatic of the ex-United director & he has been living on borrowed time ever since Scolari's firing.
There is a heap of in-fighting & back biting in the corridors of authority at Chelsea that could threaten to disrupt all of the team's great work. - 30542
