Severe Weather, Two Draws and Marvelous Tevez.

Last weekend was a bit boring, with no game on Sunday. Disappointing matches on Saturday.

Too many games got postponed due to severe weather conditions. Only 3 games were played.

It started with Arsenal against Everton. Same thing happened, Arsenal was aimless without Fabregas. Scoring was rather impossible without Van Persie. First goal came Leon Osman, assisted by Landon Donovan; yeah, who would have thought that he could be that marvelous. Arsenal's equalizer came from Denilson in which his shot got deflected of Everton's player an got Howard flailing at a wrong direction.

Arsenal tried to look for a win but a quick counter attack gave Pienaar a goal with a wonderful chipped-shot ball over Almunia; made him look like a complete idiot and dance his way to a celebration. It looked like a win for Everton, got their revenge for 6-0 lost earlier of the season. But along came the gorgeous Rosicky, scored the last minute equalizer, again a deflected shot. Duh. It was 2-2.

Then, Birmingham against United was too..hmm..how should i say this, unlucky? nope. I think it was too predictable. Wrong player chose and ended up with a 1-1 draw. Why was it unlucky and predictable?

Well, because Rooney as a lone striker didn't help at all. 4-5-1 formation obviously was a flop. Ferguson should have brought in Diouf earlier and use Obertan at the left flank. Leave Scholes out. He's old. Too old for his position. Cameron Jerome scored from Birmingham City's only strike. Whereas Man United's thousand missiles failed to score a goal. Their equalizer came from City's Scoot Dann; a deflected cross from Evra of Dann and goal. Sheesh~ better be great Devils. Better be great this weekend.

Manchester City against Blackburn Rovers was too easy. A hatrick from Tevez and a great goal from Micah Richards. Regret that Tevez now Fergie? Well, you should.
