Saha had a great game. John Terry had a 'mare. Excrement happens.

Over the last three game Terry has been utterly immense. In the last few games he's been dominating opponents in the way Saha did to him tonight. It's mental to suggest that Terry can't deal with long diagonal balls when in the vast majority of occasions he deals with them as well as anyone.

Your first goal tonight was another undefendable goal IMO. Absolute perfect delivery, missing out the first defender by inches and dipping perfectly for the timed run of Saha.

Your second was a JT balls up by not heading the ball in the first place, but the control and fierce drive from Saha was again spot on.

There were a few incidents like that though where the ball was played in high and he failed to deal with Saha. There was an identical one to the goal that he didn't make the most of.

But perhaps it's just a blip as his mind could easily have already been on the plane to Dubai already.

Decent point for Utd especially with being down to 10 men and Chelsea losing. Arsenal have been let back in though and have a much easier looking run in than the other two so I still reckon it's a three way race.

Good point in the end last night taking Chelseas result into account. They seem to be struggling away from the Bridge at the moment.

For me it doesn't help when our manager says our priority is the CL. If the priority is the CL, then why bother working your booty off at Everton/Villa/Citeh away in the league when you have something else more important?

There were a few times last night when we farting around like Arsenal, that wound me up a lot. We got ourselves decent shooting opportunities at the edge of the box, but instead tried threading the ball through again, or even worse, playing three extra passes to shoot from a far worse position than we'd just had.

I think there are a few more twists left in the season. I think the lead could change hands a few times between now and the end.

I wouldn't go so far as applauded, but the reaction over here (Spain) has been far from negative.

Good job Ingerland can call upon best mates Terry and Bridge to line up next to each other.



Giggs out for a month with a broken arm.
