You sure? On paper it's televisual Mogadon. Nailed on to be a 3-3 draw then (and that would suit me).

Don't worry, it couldn't be more blatantly made-up.

Been watching the full game over here, and Bolton look impressive. Nice mix of clever players like Lee and Holden with bruisers like Davies and Robinson, harrying all over the pitch when they don't have the ball and good movement with it. Coyle's done a great job. I can see them in Europe, and in this pile-up of a season, if they get luck with injuries they could even challenge for fourth.

Prison tag?

I thought it looked naughty. At first I presumed he just tried to step up to catch him offside, but I've replayed it a couple of times and it just looks deliberate. Second goal was def offside though.

Sorry Stifler, but how on earth was that first one not a penalty? A comedy of errors, then a blatant, stupid and pointless handball.

Watching it for the first time. What on earth was Williamson doing with Elmander? Lucky boy.

No Parker for West Ham? Oh dear. Hope Liverpool fuck it up, but I can't see it.

OR play Blackburn and lose...

Rooney missed a sitter.

Game has become very low-key. Man U need to step it up a bit.

They can't really argue about either tbf.

Bloody hell, two red cards at OT. Silly. The second was just a stupid, stupid tackle (but exactly the kind of thing that Scholes gets a nod and a wink for).

He makes the world of difference.

Didn't realise Tiote would miss today, suspended?

We weren't half as bad as our commentators were saying in the first half, just cannot defend to save our lives (Modric and Jenas particularly unconvincing). Ronaldo man, as for beating Arsenal more convincingly, we had more shots on target than Arsenal, more shots off target than them and more corners. You were the other way round. The main difference was that you defended better and scored at the perfect time, while we gave away two eminently defendable goals and were two down before the half hour. Arsenal were better than both of us in general play.

Well, this is terrible. A lot of unconvincing players out there, they look very tentative. Carroll has done OK, covered a lot of ground, but the midfield has so far failed in almost every aspect. (That's what comes from not having Spurs players on the field... )

Lee Chung Yong is good. Lee Chung Yong is awesome. Lee Chung Yong is skillfull. Lee Chung Yong. Lee Chung Yong. Two assists. Lee Chung Yong... It's a sad sad situation. Beckham is good. Beckham is awesome. Beckham is skillful. Beckham. Beckham. Free kick. Cross. Gentle jog. Beckham. Bend it like Beckham...

As long as he waits till we're 4-0 up I can live with it.

Tevez off, Barry on. Hmmmm. Bet they go and bloody score now.

Should have been a goal for City, fantastic goal line clearance

Doesn't really need saying, but if it wasn't for Tevez Man City would be desperately uninspired.

In May 2010 figures in the Daily Telegraph stated that Dyer, who had made only 22 appearances and had never played a full 90 minutes for West Ham, was the club's top earner on £83,000-a-week. His deal included £424,000-a-season for image rights and £100,000 in loyalty fees. Image rights?! X-rays?

I know he's a bit of a twat and earns an insane amount, but I can't help but feel sorry for him.

Hopefully we'll get another sharpish. I thought Blackburn looked pretty useful against you.
