Sunderland 1 Everton 0

Cardiff City are the champions while Hull City have to wait until next week to confirm their place in the Premier League but to be honest, I prefer Watford. As a Chelsea fan, it would be superb to see Gianfranco Zola back in the Premier League and Gus Poyet's Brighton to win through play-offs. When I first supported Chelsea back in 1998, these two players were among my heroes! I saw Albert Ferrer and Frank Lebeouf on the TV the other, that was pretty surreal!

We have a pair of dandies today.


Tottenham v Manchester City
KO : 13:30 UK time
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/22141282

Liverpool v Chelsea
KO : 16:00 UK time
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/22141299

Torres & Rafa are back at Anfield.

One took an epic dump on Liverpool by handing in a transfer request in mid-season.
The other got sacked by Liverpool and took their transfer kitty as compensation.

Both left Liverpool & Walked Alone without a single EPL medal.they should sue Liverpool for false advertising.

Good game at White Hart Lane.

Nifty work by Tevez on the flank and his pass to Milner who played it to Nasri for the goal.

Man City leading Tottenham by 1-0 now.

Vertonghen with a good tackle on Nasri to save a goal scoring chance.Dempsey with a free header that went wide. Tevez with a header saved by Lloris. Barry hit the ball with his hand inside Man City box .could have been a penalty and 2nd yellow to Barry but nothing given. Nasri with a bad tackle on Walker but nothing given. Joe Hart with a good save on Dempsey.

And Gareth Bale has disappeared from the pitch half way through the half. taking an early flight to Madrid.

Tottenham 0 Man City 1

Tottenham 3 Man City 1 :)

Great game and great 2nd half performance by Spurs. AVB's substitutions and tactical changes worked like a charm.now that's a great manager for all to watch.
