He's an outright cheat.

Easiest one to take of the season tbh, Chelsea are a good side, we performed okay, no problem.

Drogba is shameless though. Can't stand the bloke or his theatrics.

Just remember, it's understanable when you lose to a team like Chelsea, but there are not many excuses for losing to a team like Wigan

Yeah, the Wigan defeat was a blow, but they played really well so all credit to them. I think all the top teams are likely to lose more games this season as the competition is tighter.

I'm sorry Baabaa can't stand Drodba, although I guess the man himself isn't losing any sleep about it? He's having an outstanding season so far and even though he did his business again today, I thought Chelsea's main man was Essien followed by Cap'n reliable.

It was a hard game but the sort Chelsea thrive in.

Ardeanl are looking great, but I worry about their defence against the best?

And there's a tough test for the new kids on the block against Villa tomorrow.

Nah! Liverpool will show how it's done in a few weeks.

What was that again, come on Baa Baa admit you are not always right

As a United fan I've got no complaints about the injury time own goal that salvaged a point for us.
But United are doing better,up to now,than many thought they would and the football is more entertaining than last season.
But I cant see United winning the title this season,nor Liverpool.Personally I think the title is Chelseas to lose but for any neutral I'm sure they would like to see Arsenal win it with the exciting attacking football they are playing.
Spurs and City also pushing hard for a place in the top 4.I think Spurs arent quite good enough and 6th is their likely finishing position.City are a better bet to break the top 4 monopoly.
Torres.....yep,I think he's the best striker in the Premiership.I just wish United had signed him for 20m four years ago when they had the chance!
Drogba....he's a cheating,whingeing cnut (although I like him more than Ballack) but for some reason I've got him in my Fantasy Football team!

considering the guy is always being praised for his power, he doesn't half spend a lot of time rolling around on the deck

, only for a minute or two though, then he's up & running again, seemingly not really injured.
zidane is probably right, he is a cheating cnut!!

as for the mighty gooners, yes our defence can be a little generous at times & if we get an injury at c/back we don't have the best of cover.
going forward we are looking unstoppable, maybe we'll just have to outscore the opposition in every game

That was said more in hope than expectation.

Yes, I think hope will be part of Liverpool's season this year, not much certaintity about the way they're playing

only joking

As an aside, I do really, really, rate Torres, but if the rest of the team aren't up to it? And he was well martialled by JT yesterday. Interesting blog here from the beeb about Drogba and yesterdays game -

No need to hit the panic button yet.

At the end of the day, if the fixtures had given us Portsmouth at home rather than Chelsea away the chances are we'd be one point behind United,three points from the top and everything would look rosy.

The press knees will be jerking for a few days though.

Presuming Liverpool and United win the next fixture and we beat them at Anfield a week later, we'll be one point behind them, will they be written off?

Gerrards not been at the races this season but it's only a matter of time and Aquilani should add a bit of attacking quality in the middle as Lucas doesn't offer enough at the moment if he's alongside Mascherano.

The trouble is Aquilani is going to need a while to settle.

Chelsea easily look the strongest side at the moment but I don't think this years champions will be breaking the points record.

Carlsberg aren't sponsoring us from next year anyway, Standard Chartered have paid a world record £80'000'000+ for a 4 year deal.

Yeah right!

I'm not a fan of the round ball game, but watched 'The damned united' last week and really enjoyed it.

Were Leeds really that dirty in the 70's...?

Was Brian Clough really the best manager England never had...?
