Thought Chelsea were lucky to come away with a win and United were lucky to come away with a draw today. Two decent games to watch though.

As a Liverpool fan it was refreshing to see some good link up between Suarez and Sturridge this weekend albeit against a poor Norwich side.

Southampton v Everton will be interesting tomorrow night I feel with the Atkins saga in the week.

Hopefully the Saints fans boycott in their droves. Or protest, at least.

About as much as his stock fallen during his second season at Madrid. Very strange player. So talented and generally has the right attitude, yet he hasn't been a consistent 'fit' at either of the giants he's played for.

Chelsea interim manager Rafael Benitez says people who criticise Fernando Torres by using statistics "don't have any clue".

I agree with the fat man. Despite everything, Torres has pretty good stats this season. It's pretty much everything else about his play that has been awful.

How good is Demba Ba? I honestly don't know. How good does he look compared to Torres? Like the best centre forward in the world.

Including the two that testified against him? Including the many thousand that weren't up in front of the beak? Way to generalise.

It was more a dig at the way other fans (Everton/Saddened) generalise against over clubs, of course i don't believe that all of the Everton fans are like that
