Really but if you weren't watching United v Leicester you made a real big mistake. Awesome game!

Today has been a fantastic day of football... it's days like this that makes me question how anybody could dislike the sport

This whole weekend has been crazy for results!

Lampard scoring against Chelsea was always going to happen

[AkydefGoldberg]

Not mad, really am not..

Spoiler:

Mark Clatternburg - you fucking cunt. Get your eyes tested.

Just about calmed down but tbh, it's more funny than depressing.

The two goals we scored were lovely but defensively, Rafael-Evans decide to let Ulloa with a free header which tbf to him, he took it well. At 3-1, we should have kept possesion to keep control but absolute horrendous decision by Clatters and I didn't see major contact with Vardy by Rafa but anything was going to take him down. After that we crumbled. Leicester got the momentum they needed, crowd got behind them and we just forgot about defending.

I wouldn't be harsh on Blackett, he's a 20 year old kid who has shown potential but he needs someone with experience (Vidic) with him. He's having to defend with Evans who can't lead the defence, Smalling/Jones are in the same boat, Rojo's still settling. Jones' injury was a blow because at least, he looked decent.

I was disappointed with DDG on Vardy's goal, he needs to work on one on one. It was so easy for Vardy to get slide the ball past him, don't see why he can't rush out and make it difficult but he just pokes a leg out. Probably the way he's been taught but has to improve I feel.

It's all too easy for Rooney to look like a captain ranting and raving, but it'd be good if his team-mates acknowledged his poor play. Carrick/Jones coming back cannot come sooner. With Liverpool losing, would have been great to win today and we should have done.

Why United didn't go out and get a star-quality centre back I'll never know.

@PorkChop - remember that book I'm reading 'Turning my back on the Premier League' that you asked me to give you a bit of feedback on? Really enjoying it, it's hardly a piece of literary genius but it reads really well and I reckon you'd probably enjoy it too.

It's a fiver on eBay, what the heck. I'll buy it.

Also, Bolton sign Chris Herd on loan, lol @Romo. He had to take time out the game as he was so distraught that Darren Bent shagged his girlfriend - I'm not kidding.

Smalling's injured. Rojo/Blind - two left footed players could be in defence or Fletcher joining one of them

Enner Valencia and Andy Carroll - if he's fit - will be licking their lips. I hate predicting against United (feel dirty just thinking about it) but fear Hammers will add to our woes.

[PorkChop]

1-0 down to Chelsea after 7 minutes, some Villa fans on Twitter already calling for Lambert to be sacked.

2nd in the table and lose to Arsenal and Chelsea. Fuck me, what a meltdown.

[Viazon]

Fans are way too fickle there days.

Yep. Villa fans are a pessimistic bunch anyway, but in recent years a culture seems to have developed of fans wanting quick fixes, regardless of their club.
