    I know, I just hate that phrase. Not just because it's cliched, but because the Premier League features so much variance on a game-to-game basis that it's never remotely true.

    To be fair to Lawro [I'll do it just this once] the odds were stacked so much in Spurs favour that I was picturing Saints in 5th place. ;)

    To say, I didn't expect that result, would be an understatement. Anyway, well done WHU.

    EDIT: And if Twiskter comes on here I'll tell him so. :)

    Was a decent goal but he was the right side of the Spurs players for them to challenge for the ball. Seen better but it was decent.

    That little quickly-flicked free kick to Nolan...how many times will they surprise teams with that before it stops being surprising?

    Just the once I think, would have been impressive if it had gone in.

    That's an FF assist for Nolan.

    Just watching the Spuds/WHU match on MOTD and if that Noble/Nolan free-kick had gone in, I would have applauded. Love that kind of unpredictable football.

    West Ham used a lot of luck today. 2 flukey goals and one brilliant one.

    p.s. Anyone who utters the phrase "you make your own luck" will be punched through the internet..

    Boruc (very begrudgingly) in Garth Crooks team of the week. He wanted to pick De Gea but had "no choice" after watching Boruc's saves.

    Never a penalty at the end. Long went down like he'd been shot (again).

    It was a penalty. He barged him in the back.
