hey a goals a goal wont complain. Annoyed I channel flicked and missed it though.
Anton Bryan on for Sam Hewson for the last 5 minutes
darn 2-1 Wigan
Very well-worked by Wigan, draw would have been a fair result but fair play, they've pinched it on the break
Crap!
bollocks. 
Shit. Ole loses.
How did Macheda do?
off the pace. Worked hard but Manucho was 'the man' in that respect
Macheda was disappointing, as were Hewson, Cleverley and Gibson for me. Manucho did well, the defence were solid aside from being caught on the break for the two Wigan goals, Eikrem had a tidy first half, Stewart terrified Wigan on the right second half.
I thought Gibson wasn't bad. Manucho was impressive for me, a little like Saha on steroids. Eckersley fought for everything and showed some skill.
Shame about the result but the performance, in parts, was impressive.

I liked what I saw of Manucho.
Obviously, rusty and not fully fit but he's got a decent touch, is fairly quick, great in the air, built like a brick shit-house, with a left-foot like a traction engine ((c) Alan Partridge) and a mighty impressive 'fro.
Felt sorry for him last night though. Mainly because of the shite weather but also because of the unbelievably shoddy service from the wings (and set-pieces). Can't wait to see how he does with Nani, Ronaldo, Evra and Neville/Brown pinging decent crosses into the box.

Yes indeed, the f@pfest will know no bounds.
Anybody got any vids please?
