[- Doing The Lambert Walk]

How bizarre. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/sunderlands-di-canio-spat-face-2316202

Agree with everything Mourinho said about Vertonghen.

First yellow = a dive, obviously.

Second = not even a foul.

No appeal for a double yellow though.

Scratched him in the face though. Neither 'tackles' were fouls though.

That second Arsenal goal was an absolute delight. Lovely.

Should have been. If that's a yellow for Torres, its a yellow for the other guy.

Also, Danny Murphy is a moron. Obvious, I know, but it needs repeating.

Torres should have got a straight red for his hand in Vertonghen's face so he's got off easy in a way - only has a 1 game ban rather than 3.

Torres should have just pulled his shorts down.

What a strike that is.

Yep dive from Chamakh. Cheat.

Roberto Martinez full of praise for Mauricio and the way we play.

Good refereeing.

I thought it was excellent refereeing. It wasn't a blatant dive - tricky to spot.

Atkinson actually had a decent game today. Very surprised at that.

You've praised a referee. There must be something wrong with you!

David Moyes spent 11 years trying to get Everton above Man Utd and now he's finally achieved it.

Haha. It is very rare for me. I suppose because I really expected the worse, I was pleasantly surprised.

We are having to get used to this...very difficult for us modest Saints fans Stelling again remarked what a shining example we were with our academy system. Another pundit on Sky said we were a very good PL side. Cortese has certainly managed to make Saints fans feel smug.

Suarez and Sturridge tearing Sunderland apart.

I think any one could do that the way Sunderland's defence is playing.
