Boxing Day

Ok, now let's recap the big four's results. Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United. And the new contenders, Tottenham Hotspurs, Aston Villa and Manchester City.

FIXTURE 19

Arsenal didn't waste any time to chase the top spot. They have collected most points up through the holidays even though they had to play 3 matches in a row. I friggin' like this kinda team. Reminds me of Manchester United last season. 3-0 win against Aston Villa; in which Fabregas came in for only 27 minutes and scored 2 goals, Diaby scored another one. Aston Villa got pounced, badly.

That same week Chelsea drew their game with Birmingham.

Spurs drew their game with Fulham.

Liverpool won 2-0 against Wolves.

Manchester United won against Hull City; Rooney was the main man for that match.

FIXTURE 20

Spurs welcomed back Modric, he scored a great goal and Defoe made it 2-0 against West Ham United.

Chelsea won 2-1 against Fulham; opening goal from Zoltan Gera equalized with a last minute goal from Drogba and an own goal from Brede Hangeland. Too bad. I thought Fulham could have won. Boohoo!

Manchester City looked great with Mancini. No more defensive problems. Petrov played every game so far. He reminded me of Robben. Damn left legged guy. You are great. Tevez has been deadly. 3-0 win against Wolves.

Liverpool managed a win against the Villain in an away game. Damn you Torres. A 1-0 win. Unlucky Villains. That match caused me lotsa points in the fantasy league dammit.

The Gunners grabbed an away against Portsmouth. Aaron Ramsey was the star of the game. The kids got a goal each, Ramsey and Nasri. Eduardo and Song scored a headed one each. A consolation goal from Nader Belhadj of Portsmouth. The Gunners won 4-1.

Again, Manchester United ran riot on Wigan in Old Traffoed with a 5-0 win. Rooney, Berbatov, Carrick, Rafael and Valencia scored one each. Valencia was the main man. Rafael played a wonderful game. Rooney was simply amazing. That time it looked like Manchester United. Never a disappointment.

There should be a match between Arsenal and Bolton but it got postponed due to a severe weather condition. Blergh. That was boxing day. Severe weather and footie festive. Voila!

This is the latest table.
