1. Blackburn 2-2 Bolton
Did Warnock mean to score? His eyes suggested cross, his boots spoke goal. It’s either the greatest dummy ever or the greatest miskick ever.
2. Chelsea 2-0 Boro
It’s been so long since we last saw Malouda play he’s actually grown some hair.
3. Everton 1-1 Arsenal
Will ANYONE learn not to give Tim Cahill space to head the ball?
4. Liverpool 1-1 Wigan
Yossi Benayoun may just have won the award for ‘world’s tightest angle to score from‘.
5. Man City 2-1 Newcastle
Michael Owen getting injured; Joey Barton throwing a hissy fit in the tunnel; Newcastle putting in another poor performance… same old, same old for the Toon.
6. Portsmouth 0-1 Aston Villa
Martin O’Neill must have demi-God like powers when it comes to getting the best out of his players. Heskey looked like a natural born killer on his Villa debut last night.
7. Spurs 3-1 Stoke
Along with Hull and West Brom, you sense that Stoke are another newly-promoted side struggling to keep up the relegation-staving effort beyond Christmas.
8. Sunderland 1-0 Fulham
Fulham look like they badly miss Jimmy Bullard, and why he made the switch to the Tigers I still can’t really figure out.
9. West Brom 0-5 Man Utd
When is an injury crisis not an injury crisis? When your Man Utd. 1,032 minutes since they last conceded is astounding.
10. West Ham 2-0 Hull
West Ham looked an extremely tasty proposition tonight. Probably because Hull played truly awful. I still stand by my prediction that it’s relegation for them.
