What did I tell ya. The EPL champ will have the best road record. Man U’s road woes continued at Elwood Park. Everton took it to the mighty Red Devils. The Toffees whopped em good. The final tally was 3-1 Everton.
This gives the mighty men of Old Trafford five road losses. Yes, count em five road losses.
This is huge for us Arsenal fans. This loss opens up the door for Arsenal. A win today against Sunderland and we will have cut the gap to two points behind Man U.
All we need is to have Chelsea to lose to Wolverhampton.
Go ahead and make my day.
My instincts tell me that with Rio and Nani out due to suspension will really hurt the Red Devils. Add on top of that Ryan Giggs gone because of a broken forearm you have a really depleted Red Devils side ripe for the taking.
This is exactly what the Toffees did.
Give Everton all the credit. The Toffees flat out took it Man U.
The Toffees have now beaten both Man U and Chelsea at home.
Home cooking goes a long way.
Rio Ferdinand’s absence really hurt the Man U “D”.
With Rio in the line up, I don’t think the Toffees would have scored.
Man U opened the scoring in the 16th minute. Berbatov one timed a great centering pass from mate Valencia for 1-0 Man U lead.
Then all hell broke loose. Everton kept applying the pressure.
The Toffees were like a pressure cooker. They kept the steam up and then the lid blew off this baby.
Everton’s Diniyar Bilyaletdinov nailed a perfect long-range ball in the 19th minute to even this sucker up at one all. Red Devil’s keeper Van der Sar never even flinched. He had his cement shoes on.
The Toffees scored the go ahead goal in the 76th minute. Dan Gosling back heeled a great cross from mate Steven Pienaar for a 2-1 Everton lead.
Everton put the final nail in the coffin in the 90th minute. Jack Rodwell wove his way through the entire Man U back line. He teed up a great shot that made went flying past the sprawled out keeper Edwin Van de Sar.
Final score was 3-1 Everton.
Well Chelsea is well on their way to giving Wolves a futebol lesson. Didier Drogba has hit for the daily double.
The Blues have it in cruise control.
Chelsea is well on its way to a huge road win.
The Blues have 2-0 lead with ten minutes left.
Arsenal on the other hand is in a dogfight with Sunderland. Nicklas Bendtner rammed home a point blank gimmie shot in the 27th minute to give us 1-0 lead.
Cesc Fabregas set this baby up with a great run into the box. He made a great pass right through the goal crease to left post.
This created the walk in goal for Bendtner.
This is way this baby stands with about thirteen minutes remaining.
If things remain the same, Chelsea will have 61 points. Man U remains at 57 points. Arsenal is still with in striking distance with 55 points.
It is all over but the shouting as Chelsea cruised to a 2-0 win over Wolverhampton.
This gives the Blues seven road wins on the season. Chelsea is 7-3-4 on the road. Man U drops to 7-2-5. Arsenal remains at 6-3-4.
Finally, we get another goal in the dying moments of the match against Sunderland. Cesc Fabregas nailed the PK kick to put this guy out of reach.
We can all breath a huge sigh of relief.
The Gunners are up 2-0 in the 90th minute.
Thank God for small favors.
It is all over. We pick up the all-important three points.
The top of the table looks like this after Saturdays encounters.
Chelsea is the top gun with 61 points. Man U is second with 57 and Arsenal is third with 55.
The race is on baby.
Man U is wobbly on the road. Chelsea has their troubles as well. It will come down to this. Beat the teams you should. Hold serve at home. Have more wins than losses or ties on the road.
Trust me on this.
Man U’s loss to Everton may have well cost them a shot at the four peat. Better yet this may have cost the Red Devils second place in the table as well.
