This is a story of life and death. And acting. And celebration. It is the story of a club from

Another week, another trialists. This time it is Felix Dja Ettien. I haven't read the 'net
reaction yet. Probably much a flutter over a former captain of a La Liga side (Levante UD) coming

things having spent time up top and in the middle as well.

As expected, Manchester United continued on with their great form to thrash struggling
Portsmouth 5-0 at Old Trafford.
With Chelsea starting the day with a goal difference which bettered ours by 2, it was really
important that we made the most of our chance to score goals.
With Wayne Rooney in the form of his life, you had to believe that was going to be possible.

American international Jozy Altidore has finally opened his account in the English Premier League.
The Hull City forward found the back of the net after 31 minutes in his club's shock 2-1 victory
over Manchester City on Saturday, breaking an over year-long drought since he last scored a goal
(November 2008 with Villarreal).

Five minutes before United opened the scoring today, Dimitar Berbatov missed an absolute sitter.
Gary Neville burst in to the box and played in a perfect ball to the Bulgarian, with half the

miss.

The 1982 World Cup semifinal in Seville between France and West Germany was a stunning game of

Despite those six goals, the semifinal is mostly remembered for just one thing.

Following Carlos Tevez's two goals against Manchester United in the League Cup, he made a
'yapping' motion with his hand, suggesting that Gary Neville was wrong to support the manager in
not paying £47m for the Argie prick.
He then did several interviews, claiming United should do their talking on the pitch and called
Neville an "idiot".

After knocking Manchester City out of the League Cup, Sir Alex Ferguson has praised the players
and fans.
"It's a derby game, and you like to win your derby games," said Ferguson. "The

the fact we scored so late in the game brought a special type of celebration.

That's how they do it Down Under Melbourne Victory striker Archie Thompson produced a very special
celebration after scoring against Wellington Phoenix. WAGs are a little harder to come by in the

Carlos Tevez scored two goals against Manchester United in the week to give City a 2-1 lead as
we go in to the second leg of the League Cup semi.
The Argie striker shrugged off his celebrating team mates to dedicate his celebration to United
captain, Gary Neville.
Tevez admitted that he hadn't actually read what Neville said, given that he hasn't bothered to
learn English in his four years living in England, and that his team mates read out the
interview.

At last, a player comes out and says what so many fans have been thinking for almost 20
years.

"Silent Stan" is apparently a nickname for Mr "I own 29% of Arsenal" Kroenke.
It conjures up this image.
But it is more to do with a lack of willingness to talk to the press it would seem.
He has at least one saving grace then.
Arsene seems pretty unfazed at the prospect of him taking over.

Remember when Rafael Benitez showed up a match day press conference with a list of notes which

Blame it on the puppet Carlos Tevez claims his ear-cupping celebration of his second goal against
Manchester United in front of Sir Alex Ferguson was actually a tribute to a television puppet. The
Manchester City striker has rejected accusations that he was baiting the United boss over his
refusal to sign Tevez on a permanent deal.

Expect a fine/ban being dished out to Gary Neville by the FA after sticking his finger up at
Carlos Tevez following the Argie's goal celebration last night.
Gary Neville had supported the manager in not signing Tevez, which clearly upset our former
striker, so much so, that he dedicated yet another celebration to his former club, instead of his
current one.

We'll batter them at Old Trafford.
Manchester City were outplayed pretty much from the first whistle to the final whistle on their
home turf, and only collected the win because they were awarded a penalty for a foul outside the
box.
It wasn't our best performance over the 90 minutes but we still managed to control the game.
