Red Devils Keep on Winning

It's always a good thing when your team continues to win.  Manchester United not only won in their last home game against Manchester City, but also moved one step closer to the top of the table due to  Liverpool tying and Chelsea being beat by Arsenal.  This is also great for the fans, since this means that there is only a difference of 9 points between the top five teams (and Man U only 6 points away from the leader with a game in hand).  There is nothing better than having a tight run at the top of the tables.

Other Soccer News:
  • Even though he brought the Black Cats up to the Premier League over the past few years, "The Skipper," Roy Keane, exits as coach to Sunderland.  The Black Cats have already begun a search for a replacement.  No news as of yet on who they will try to put in his place.  We'll miss you Roy.
  • Argentina's golden boy, Carlos Tevez, must be tired of riding the pine.  In his last game he was put in as a starter for the first time in a while and scored 4 goals.  My guess is that he wants to make it a point that he should be a starter for Man U.  On another note, Argentina will definitely have a good squad this upcoming World Cup.
  • Arsenal lose in the Carling Cup.  They must not think it's that important to win considering they only put in their scrubs to start.  Oh well.  Man U on the other hand, won and advance to the semifinals.
