Setanta Coverage from Sunderland was shocking. Commentary was 3-4 seconds ahead of the picture so when forward teeing up a shot the commentator was already telling me it was in the back of the new. :rolleyes:
West Ham win & Manchester City only drawing were surprises.
Man City was I suppose but West Ham wasn't a shock to me. Blackburn are going down this seasonQuote:

Me too. Toon were difficult to breakdown and Arsenal were a little over elaborate and took the extra touch far too many times for my liking. Possession play was good however and never looked like conceeding. Jenas looked like a sending off to me - although I only saw it the once when it actually happened - possibly might have looked worse than what it was. Van Persie and Hleb were excellent when they came on and will be pushing for a starting spot against Chavski next weekend. Happy enough with the start, 3 points in the bagQuote:

Tackle from behind, two feet, red card, no question!Quote:

Finally got to see the incident again and I think he was a little unlucky to be red carded given that it looked unitentional. However I don't agree that he got the ball, as you cannot win a ball by following through to injure someone, unintentionally or not. If he'd won the ball fairly it would have been recinded fullstop, however the yellow card is correct as it was a foul and most certainly was a booking.Quote:

It is quite possible to get the ball and foul the player. He fouled Gilberto but it was not a sending off it was a yellow card. But in my eyes he did make contact with the ball.
