Today's football.

I alluded to some kind of shift this season in the summer. No idea how it will all pan out, but with the changes at Utd, Chelsea & Citeh, as well as Spurs/Bale issue, Arsenal having some cash to spend, the chance of a change to the "Top 4" was on the cards. 5 games in, looking more likely than then.

Interesting times.

Chelsea and City look very strong, and obviously Arsenal and Spurs are right there and have a lot of strength in depth now. And I think it has to be acknowledged that our dear neighbours have assembled a very impressive squad. I actually found out a lot about RS's owner, J W Henry in the last week or so and I have to say that I'm very impressed with his track record and systematic approach. I think last year they laid some foundations and now are primed to really kick on and reestablish themselves as a gunuine championship-challenging club. And obviously I think Martinez has shown that he is not afraid to go toe to tow eith anyone.

So the question is, are United good enough to see most off most of these teams? I think it will come down to the results theyhave against these 5 or 6 teams, and so far Moyes has taken 1 point from 9. Its already an uphill task for them just to claw back a decent haul of points from these fixtures.

Fellaini was poor

I hope he doesn' t just coast with the cash and CL he coveted, it'll be a waste.

palace are going down. that really should have been 6 or 7 and swansea weren't even arsed. Just 3 days after playing in the sun of spain as well. they have nobody who can defend and nobody who can create with nobody who can score.

no offence alan like

None taken. Think yourself lucky you didn't have a 280 mile round trip to watch it and get stuck on the M3 for an hour on the way home. For the first time this season, although sadly I expect not the last, we were utter shyte.

Reina saves Balotelli penalty . first time in his professional career he didnt score a pen.

Benitez off to a flyer in Italy

Bet he's desperate to prove the media wrong over there after his Inter stint

United still haven't scored from open play since the first day of the season.

Lost Yaya for their second goal. Turned his back on the ball and didn't jump.

Let Aguero run past him for the third goal.

Plodded back for the fourth goal.

Watching Swansea on MOTD and fair play they are great to watch. Like their manager too.

i was suppose to go to the game (was planning to watch glamorgan in the final at lord's and stay over night), but watching everton win on my laptop the see united get trounced was more rewarding.

Great win for Everton, made up for you all. Also wanted Glamorgan to win especially as they beat my team Hants in the semi.Next two for Palace? At Southampton and at RS. Come on Palace!
