So then United eventually went on to lose in West London, but with many a Red fearing the worst
prior to kick-off (and that was before we learnt that the champions would be without the
first-choice centre-back pairing of Vidic and Ferdinand) an unlucky one-nil defeat was a much
better outcome than many would have been expecting.

When Guus Hiddink sneezes, Roman Abramovich catches a cold and Vladimir Putin develops a nervous
cough.
They'd better order additional supplies of extra strength tissues for Manchester United's visit to
Stamford Bridge today.
Hiddink – like another student of socialism, Sir Alex Ferguson – understands how to use the
cult of personality, welded around strong leaders.

not to be too downhearted.

On the eve of this season, Liverpool manager Rafa Bentiez bemoaned his side's lack of financial
power. However, an analysis of the spending habits of the ‘Big Four' since his appointment in
June 2004 shows that the Spaniard has outspent Sir Alex Ferguson by £80m. Furthermore, when money
raised through player sales is taken into account, Benitez' net spending dwarves Ferguson's by
£95m and only Chelsea have spent more on player recruitment during the same five-year period.

Ok, I can see how the FA would be REALLY honked off if Chelsea stole a young player from another
club. I can see how the club that he was supposedly stolen from would be very upset. I can see
how bad this looks for Chelsea. I'm also a realist.
Chelsea, so says the French Soccer Club Lens, "illegally induced" this kid named Kakuta to sign
with Chelsea's youth program.

Come the revolution, the Premier League will be no more – of that you can be certain. As clubs
attempt to regain control of their upwardly spiralling finances, the top flight will break up into
