Lead now only four points and the Mancs have got to play us, Chavski, and Liverpool.

What great value for money he's provided for his clubs investment.

And his timing and the way he went about his exit from the club was as bad as Cashley Hole leaving the Arsenal.

Well done Toon, 4 nil down and manage a 4 all draw. Arsenal Prima Donnas need to take a leaf out of their book and learn what it is to put a shift in. 10 men or not, you don't throw away a four goal lead. So Manc luck finally ran out, and you could see it coming. They've ridden their luck in the last 4 or 5 games. I fully expected to still be 5 points behind them today, but fate is a funny thing. Anna you must be delighted and rightly so. I'd have Stevie G in my team any day of the week, he was immense yet again, and his range of passing still spot on. Liverpool with no Carrol or Suarez, Chavski spend ?70m and still lose at home. Maybe they should have bought a decent striker, oh wait..............

Just read Torres's comments on the BBC wesite giving his version of events leading to his move to Chavski. Have you seen them Anna and what do you think of them?

I was in the Porcupine next to Leicester Sq tube and couldn't make up my mind as to which of the 5 ales they had on to have, the manager offfred me two samples without hesitation. One happy customer, plus 4 mates, job done.

Adrian Chiles comes across as being the sort of fella that you can have a decent chin wag with about footy.

See what you're saying, but you wouldn't be stupid enough to poke yourself in the eye with a snooker cue and then claim you did so because there wasn't notice provided when you purchased it saying not to.

Does that mean you've seen people actively engaged in such acts, as a result of an absence of signs prohibiting such behaviour?

Torres is worth ?70m in Rafas' opinion. Well he may have a point, if Carroll is worth ?35m and Bent is worth ?24m, what are the likes of Messi, Xavi, Iniesta worth?
