Did it in a canter.
With the top 4 all winning sets up a bit of a gap. Chelsea need to win to keep pace. Think top 6 is almost set.
West ham having a purple patch, jumped quiet a few sides. Might see both birmingham sides go down.

Big round coming up midweek with the match of the week pitting arsenal v man city. Should sort out the pretenders from contenders. Can see arsenal wiping the floor with the scum but hoping for a draw.

Deliberate handball by west brom not given.
Thankfully hernandez scored less than a minute later


Pretty much my point jim05.
To suggest you continually get ripped off by the ref is ridiculous.
It goes both ways most of the time.

It sure does.
The ref last night was terrible. Missed two clear penalties and the one he gave he didnt even give rio a card of any colour. Very poor display

All teams get penalties that are not and get the most odvious one missed that even blind men could have seen its something that will never change.

But what a miss penalty by the WBA player in the Man utd match. That goal could have changed the title run for Man Utd by a long way but it wasnt to be..

Agreed if he scores that penalty, they put more defenders back and i dont think we would have come back. One of the worst penalties ive seen for a while

Pity Neville didn't get a red card for that non-penalty, the guy is a massive liability.

WBA should have at least got a point, that penalty miss was disgraceful. The guy quite simply choked.

Nice to see Rooney back on the scoresheet, pity he got injured and hopefully it wasn't too bad. He is definitely playing better, the only thing missing has been the goals but got one last night. Chicarito is a gun, terrible marking by WBA but the little mehican always seems to be in the right place at the right time.

The finish by James Morrison was quality however.

3-3 draw, Villa even had a 2-1 lead at one stage. Glad Villa grabbed a late goal, I'd hate to see Terry score the winning goal.

What is going on at Chelsea these days. Far far from the team they were at the start of the season. And the team hasnt really changed so something is deff going on at the bridge.

They have fallen in a hole since they sacked their assistant manager Ray Wilkins, could be a coincidence but I think the players loved him.

Yeah mentioned that at the time. Wilkins is the main reason for chelseas decline. Thats why club owners should eff off and leave the running of the team to the manager.
The title race down to a few now. Probably only top 3

I agree jim. I'm sure he's been there before abramavich was and to sack a great club man isn't acceptable for some players who have been there for a long time!

Liverpools assistant Pako Ayesteran left half way through the season when Liverpool finished 2nd.
Things went downhill quick smart after he went back to Spain.

Not sure if Abramovich would sack Ancellotti this soon but if he does I reckon he might make a call to a certain waiter who still has real estate on Merseyside.

maybe but whatever it is if they dont get out of their run i can see IMO them missing out on champions league all together and i doubt the russian would take a liking to that much.

it will be an interesting few weeks coming up for Man Utd. They havent lost any games yet not taking that away from them but they havent really played any of the big teams away from home as yet.

Man Utd vs Liverpool - won that at home
Man City vs Man Utd drew away from home
Man Utd vs Tott - won at home
Man Utd vs Arsenal - won that at home
Were ment to play chelsea away but game postponed.

They have tottenham at the lane coming up very soon and liverpool away which being a derby that can go anyway and they lost there last year so will be interesting to see how far away they are or are not from the rest of the league having not lost a game 'yet'.

Have city at home but being a derby can go anyway
Still have Liverpool, Arsenal, tottenham and chelsea to play away from home so will be a big test for them.

Im not saying they will lose all these to bring them back to the pack at all but will be a big test for them to see if they can keep this un beaten record.
All the other big clubs have played the other big teams away from home in some of the games ..
