Good victory today although it got a little scary towards the end. After getting thumped last year 1-4 there, it shows this year is a different story.
Ronaldo was really good today although with his typical flops on a few occasions. He just puts so much pressure on the defense with his ball handling and pace. It's fun to watch. |

Middlesborough should feel bad, as they played well enough to earn a draw.
That Ronaldo penalty... Eh. Close call. Replays showed that Schwarzer didn't touch Ronaldo who stumbled and fell. Well, if Schwarzer fouled Ronaldo, he must have touched a part of Ronaldo's shoelace which is enough for Ronaldo to fall like the Portuguese diving bastard that he is.
Woodgate for England squad. |

That was a clear dive from Ronaldo.
I have to admit though that he was good tonight, nice immediate reply on Middlesbroughs goal there.
11 straight games without a loss, 9 wins and 2 ties. Impressive record. |

Nar, it was a fair result I feel. We didn't really pose much threat going forward, Yakubu is absolutely terrible! He must have the worst shot for a striker going. Cattermole was outstanding. 2/3 years time and he'll be a regular for the national team.
As for the penalty, what can you do eh with idiots for referee's. |

There goes Manchester Uniteds streak to an end.
Vidic got tunneled, while Ferdinand outnumbered and Reo Cooker scores the goal from 5m. Scholes and Carrick were too late to get him and West with the win!
Probably the positive effect of changing manager, Great win for West Ham, very important one. |

Well, someone is bitter :p
Good win by West Ham. Saw a lot of confidence in their passing play like they used to have last season. Still missed some good chances though. Gotta finish those chances.
Man U also didn't have a lot of fluid passing. Seemed choked out by West Ham defence |

haha MANURE!! Good on West Ham and Curbishley!;) I don't like Chelsea any more than I like Manure but bah.
The EPL is getting so ing boring these days. The same 4 teams win the league every year. The last time a team other than Man U, Liverpool, Arsenal or Chelsea won the EPL was in 95 when Rovers won it. BORING. |

| A salary cap of some sort would definitely balance things out a bit. |

that's all I'm asking for but people object to it, like for some reason Man U deserves to be able to spend more money and buy all the good players. I'll never forget the morons on here saying how Rooney leaving Everton for Man U was good for football.:rolleyes: But these same people bitch when the Yankees go after the best players in the MLB. There shouldn't be some kind of elitist hiearchy in football but there is and so many fans are accepting of it.
Before long, people are just going to get fed up. |
