    I have Park down as my man of the match, personally. Really good performance from him, and so close to a goal to mark it off, too. Berbatov next best.

    Muuuuuuuuch better.

    Nah, it wasn't, after looking at it. I originally thought it was a clearance too, but to me it looks like he's just pushing the ball forward. He's running, hence the swing. Check the video I linked for a decent quality version, ignore Ramsey for a second, watch his run, you wouldn't expect...

    All happening now! How long since the Carling Cup had all goalscorers be English?

    Something tells me Vidic doesn't like playing against fast players. Finally on a yellow, though.

    In that case I can't think for the life of me why he's not got a card. That was my only other theory - he wasn't sure and figured if he gave a yellow then it can't be changed. No idea.

    Here's a question for anyone who knows the rules well - if a yellow/red is not given in the match, then retrospective punishments can be given on occasion, yeah? What happens if it's part of a penalty?

    Rafael gets away without a yellow this time. Getting a little embarrassing. EDIT: duffer - nope, was a draw. Aston Villa 1 - 1 Man Utd (1-1 HT) Cuellar (19) Collins (og 23) Bookings: Evans (26) Sent off: Nani (29)

    Not sure. Made the edit on my last post thinking he was about to get booked but I guess Dowd is playing Mister Inconsistency today. EDIT: Also, 22 minutes in and this game is already great on the eye, if not on the head.

    Checked the Beeb and you're right, no booking. I'll take it as a United fan, but with a guilty look on my face... doesn't really feel right winning when you're getting away with stuff like that, admittedly. Although maybe after our last game against Villa they wouldn't want to be seen against...

    Vidic didn't even get a yellow? Owen scores - 11 starts (and 20 subs), 9 goals!

    Have to say, Vidic makes a lot of these red card situations when he's the last man. I'm not sure it's the best thing to do this early in the game, sometimes it's better off just... letting the keeper make an attempt to save. That was always going to be a penalty and was always (or apparently...

    Stunned Vidic still on. Oof.

    I'm a fan of Shawcross, he gets me a lot of fantasy football points. :D Yes, a former United youth player, but a lot of players out there are. Ramsey was also a player we went after but he chose Arsenal, so maybe some United fans might be bitter over that, but I also have a soft spot for him...

    Rooney on the bench, Owen & Berbatov start. Nice to see we're still giving young talent a chance to shine ;)

    Would have been nice if they lost on 20th Feb. :(

    *Official* English Football Season 2009-2010

    In all honesty, I'm completely indifferent to it because I quite like both Ramsey and Shawcross. I'm not viewing it wanting to see anything. I didn't even notice the jump until I checked out that latest video. In other news, getting a little edgy thinking about the final today. I never...

    *Official* English Football Season 2009-2010

    Yes, they do show that, I'll give you that completely. But those little pics were just to show that Shawcross had every reason - up until the final splitsecond (and last one to two snapshots) - to believe, without being reckless, that he would get the ball. The video obviously is better for...

    Watch the 'tube video, watch Ramsey, see him jump. *shrug* If you don't actually watch "both" players and instead watch what they were doing individually, you see Shawcross following the ball and going to kick it, which is fair enough as he just pushed it forward. Then watch Ramsey, you see...

    The image you guys are showing is actually after the injury was made, not just before the ball was won. Ramsey was actually jumping into Shawcrosse's path to make the tackle. Watch this in HD: YouTube - Ryan Shawcross injures Aaron Ramsey Stoke v Arsenal Horrific Injury To watch it in HD...
