Wayne Rooney was benched yesterday at Goodison Park and the famous 19 time title winning coach of the Red Devils did admit that it was because of the "terrible abuse" the former Everton man receives at his old home field.

The Columbus Crew hardly showed any ill effects from the weekend's league loss at Los Angeles, coming back with a less-than-full-strength squad and soundly defeating Joe Public FC, 3-0, in CONCACAF Champions League play Tuesday night.

Leandre Griffit, Jason Garey and Steven Lenhart each scored after halftime, as the Crew impressively wrapped up three points without the services of Guillermo Barros Schelotto, Will Hesmer or Eddie Gaven.

It is early days in the race for the Premier League title but Manchester United's 3-3 draw at Goodison Park means that United are now four points behind reigning champions and current table toppers Chelsea who have yet to drop a point.

Okay we are only four games in to the season but when you look at the way Chelsea have been steamrollering some of the opposition they have met , scoring 17 goals and conceding only one in the process, then the task that United and the other teams face in stopping the Blues from winning a second consecutive title looks formidable.

Liverpool may have suffered another stuttering first half on Sunday, this time at Old Trafford, eventually losing the game 6 minutes from time but any kind of defining moment it is not.

Sir Alex Ferguson may have just started a one man crusade to change the dictionary definition of Berbatov from "lazy" and "flop" to "genius" since his arrival at the club (2 years on), following 90 minutes of football against their north west arrivals but outside of pride, right now, the result means very little.
