This weekend's EPL action saw the "big 4" all come out on top while the two pretenders to their authority were both beaten. Aston Villa came back to where everyone thought they would be, & Blackburn moved to where every person thinks they will stay.
The first big event of the year produced a classic in forward play & a headache in defensive action as Manchester United wiped the floor with Manchester City four-3 with Michael Owen coming up in the sixth minute of injury time to claim the winner after Micah Richards went walkabout rather than remaining with his guy.
Mark Hughes screamed foul, as the fourth referee had originally indicated that the game might only have four minutes of injury time, 1 minute prior to City equalized in the final moment, incidentally, the festivity lasted for one minute.
Furthermore, the injury time played is a) at the official's discretion and b) there for both teams. I question if Hughes might give the goal back if it was City who had scored?
For total amusement the match was a pleasure to watch, a true seven goal affair.
Defensively it was a debacle.
Shay Given made one of the most horrible errors of his lifetime for Fletcher?s first, Rio Ferdinand had an absolute gaffe and was the distinct reason for two of City?s scores.
While Sir Alex Ferguson will be putting Edwin van der Sar into a kind of rehab tank to earn him back playing as fast as viable, lets simply proclaim that Ben Foster won?t be Capello?s first selection in South Africa.
Peter Kenyon's removal from his Head Executive role at Chelsea comes as no surprise, Eugene Tenenbaum isn?t a fanatic of the ex-United director & he has been operating on borrowed time ever since Scolari's dismissal.
There's a heap of in-battling & back biting in the corridors of authority at Chelsea that might threaten to derail all of the organization's good work.
