#128 – A Feast of Goals
United beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in somewhat controversial circumstances.
On this week’s show regulars Ed and Paul discuss a feast of goals over the past week, with Manchester United beating Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in somewhat controversial circumstances, before succumbing to the same team in the league cup. Where Sir Alex Ferguson’s team claimed three Premier League points, a younger outfit dropped out of the cup after a stirring game in west London.
One again, though, the narrative of post-match commentary centered around controversy, with referee Mark Clattenburg the brunt of Chelsea ire for more than one reason.
Also on this week’s podcast: we talk Nani and Ferguson’s all-too-obvious frustration with the Portuguese winger, and Paul Pogba a talented youngster now taking Italy by storm.
Back at Old Trafford, United host Arsenal on Saturday lunch-time – it’s around 100/1 for the teams to share nine goals between them. After the past week that’s surely a good punt!
Finally, we take your questions and look ahead to a European trip to Braga.
