Not a great game but 3 points regardless.

This weekends fixtures should be interesting - glad we've got 10 days off to get our injuries back though.

10 days off? Are you not playing in "Europe" on the 22nd? Last I knew that is in like 5 days time!

That was a great result for Liverpool, expect massive changes for them at the weekend now.

Good win for Chelsea, pressure is now on us to get a result at Blackburn, and that is not going to be easy. Could well be title race back on Saturday night.

Aye, and this is why I am confused about Grants whining. Team like chelsea should easily been able to get results in the 2 games this week. Then look at your run in from now.

2 day gap
17th: Everton (always was gonna be a little tough, but they lost a bit of form)
4days break
22nd: Liverpool
3days gap
26th: Man united
3days gap
30th: Liverpool

Then you compare this to Man United matches around about the "big" match.

6day gap (nice, but would rather it further in this run in)
19th: Blackburn
3day gap
23rd: Barcelona
2 day gap (This is hellish due to the pressure in these 3 games from the 23rd)
26th: Chelsea
2 day gap (see above)
29th: Barcelona

Really... when you have a squad the size chelsea and Man United have I would have easily preferred 2 close games together against mediocre opponents with an extra day rest between the big games compared to the 3 games right on top of each other, all with alot more riding on them.

But hey, Grant has never made sense to me.
