Aside from learning that the English media is more in love with Jose Mourinho than ever, Chelsea’s defeat to Inter taught us a great deal about the respective progress of both clubs. In the second half, as Inter not only held Chelsea at bay but began controlling the game, it felt like a defining moment in both clubs recent history and also in the respective standings of Serie A and the Premier League.

That was quite a day in the Premier League. Upsets, dives, non-dives, a spectacular long punt downfield, Sir Alex unhappy with a referee, this weekend had it all.

This season the Premier League will likely be won by the team that can best cope without key players. Will that team be Manchester United?

So the draw for the FA Cup 3rd round has been made. Which of these ties whets your appetite? Would it be a tasty Utd/Leeds encounter, or a Utd/Kettering banana skin? Is it the Gunners’ trip to Upton Park? Or do you fancy Reading’s chances against a shaky Liverpool side?

Vote now and let us know.

With Chelsea’s win over Manchester United, the Blues now have a 5 point lead. Are they the favourites, or can Arsenal or Utd catch them? Or will they all be beaten by an outsider?
