Man U, what? #1!

That's right. Man U is back in top form and leading the way in the Premiership. After 3 well hard fought and well deserved wins, Man U has finally gone in clear first with a one point gap over Liverpool and two over Chelsea. With a five game winning streak, it does not look like West Brom can stop them on the 27th.
In those five games, Man U came away with a huge win over rivals Chelsea; 3-0. Scoring came from Vidic, Rooney, and Berbatov (respectively). Although, Man U came away with a big win, the score does not tell the true nature of the game. Chelsea in fact had many opportunities to capitalize on their chances (specifically, Drogba), but they simply could not hit the target. The game gave way for criticism to former Portuguese National team head coach Felipe Scolari. What has he done with the team? What is going on? These are only a few of the many questions being asked of him.
The past five games have allowed for a total of 7 goals: Berbatov - 3, Rooney - 2, Tevez - 1, and Vidic - 1. Best wishes to the Red Devils as they continue with their league successes.
GO MAN U! MAKE IT TWO IN A ROW!

Ferguson getting picked on

For those of you who have been following the news lately, you may have heard that Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez has made statements (which seem to be supported by former refs as well) that Ferguson seems to be able to get away with anything he says to refs. I agree that this may be true and that the FA needs to be doing something about it, but I ask, why has it taken this long for someone to finally speak out about this? If it was such a big deal then why didn't anyone say anythig earlier? I feel that there is definately something more to this than just anger at a double standard.
