They were both there. The first penalty could be argued by Toffee fans though.

The first red - Gerrard streaming forward, had more pace than Hibbert (the last man) and was just past him at the edge of the box. Hibbert has a tug of the shirt, a push and what not and Stevie goes down. Seemed to be just on the edge of the box so he fell into the area and the penalty was given.

Second red - Tim Howard pushed a ball away but didn't clear it. He was on his arse and Lucas Leiva, on debut for the reds, shoots on target, before Phil Neville sticks his hand out to save the goal. Definite red and penalty

The other incident involved Carragher pulling Lescott down in the box. Was obvious as hell and I'll be buggered as to why it wasn't given.

Cheers Daz.

Holy shit Arsenal went postal on some Ukraine ass this morning. That was quite frightening. Here's hoping Chelsea continue the good run of British form tomorrow morning. C'mon the Blues!!

How long do we all think Martin Jol has left?
 
Ah yes, excellent to see that Chelsea got up against those crazy Germans. Sincerely hope Drogba doesn't leave, he's led our current revival.

What are our tips for the European Cup this season? United and Arsenal are looking so strong, but you can't write off A.C Milan...They're just freaks when it comes to European football

For the champs league i would put money on Manchester, Madrid or Barca, gunners are up there aswell. Rangers will surprise a few i think, which is annoying for me being a part-time Celtic fan
But AC will probably win it, sigh; always play the greatest game of the year when it counts

I'm actually thinking if Chelsea can keep Drogba in the January trade window they'll be a chance. IMO the Mourinho thing will make them stronger as a team and if they can be a bit more creative in their play they'll be hard to beat.

Obviously theres also the Gunners, Scum U, AC and co., but I think Chelsea could be very strong.

You also can't count out Barca and Real, but I'm tipping Chelsea for it.

Chelsea may lose some players though. Players like Cavalho only joined Chealea in the first place because of Mourinho. I prefer Drogba in the EPL, he shits me (as a Man U fan) when he gets those last minute goals but he's great to watch.
 
Well Jol got the sack from Spurs not that anyone couldn't see it coming...Set to replace by the Sevilla coach, though his name escapes me. There was this interesting article on ESPNSoccernet.com saying that Spurs are the only team likely to crack big 4...I always thought it would either be them or Newcastle, Everton was creeping up closely as well.

For mine, I reckon Spurs and Newcastle easily the most underachieving teams in England. For all their positives, they just can't get it right, Newcastle more so than Tottenham I reckon
 
Some good games overnight.

Chelsea getting 6 past City is quite an achievement and the Rooney and Tevez show was very entertaining, with a cameo from Nani (great strike).

Arsenal v Liverpool is on tomorrow morning should be a ripper. Just hoping Rafa doesn't wreck it with selections and subs.

Bit harsh Davey.

Handy slip-up from Arsenal on the weekend, United right back in the fray.
 
Shaping up to be a very entertaining finish. I think the statistic is that the team is on top by the end of December goes on to win the league.

Hopefully we'll get over the Gunners in the coming days. Will be difficult without Drogba though but I think this is a chance for Sheva to finally show something...Hopefully
 
Yeah very luck though. Kewell got one cleared off the line so did torres before tevez scored. As is always the case with liverpool promis so much but never deliver against the top sides.:thumbsd:

Manchester United 4 - 0 Arsenal

.....tearing 'em a new Arsène!
 
Kudos to all the English teams getting through, and it's good to see that we're not going to have another trophy going to Milan. Props to our North London friends dumping them out in sensational fashion.

But I still reckon Barcelona will win it, United right up there too...Although that depends on where their priorities lie. It's incredibly difficult as everyone knows to keep the pressure on in three different competitions. I had my brother who is an Arsenal supporter wanting the Gunners to lose in Europe so they could focus solely on the EPL. Interesting I reckon

yeah I was hoping Arsenal would stay in it for that reason too. You'd think since they hadn't won in Europe that they would be ecstatic that they still have a chance. I think Chelsea are still a big threat in the league championship too - still a 3 horse race. Liverpool are just a rabble but have a nack for champions league.
