didn't see much contact,thought he got it right

Aye, would of been harsh to give that. Evens itself up when Vidic fell over when Cahill sprinted clear late on.

thought he got that wrong. vidic tried to nip in and cahill rolled him. never a foul

I think the reason why Wellbeck went down is because he clipped his own heel. Whether that was because of the contact is open to conjecture.

One of those 50:50 calls, some you win, some you lose.

Cahill did catch Vidic, which was a shame for Cahill as I don't think Vidic would have gotten to the ball anyway.

That's how I saw it. But Jagielka appeared to nudge his calf which made him trip himself up.

It was a penalty IMO.

What a dreadful game of football. No doubt we'll never hear the end of it from the Everton fans, but I thought they offered very little all game against a scratch United side. I hope they're alot better in the final, otherwise we'll have to watch another dreadful game. I feel Drogba will cause them alot of problems though.

after the 2 games this weekend, you have to fear the final could be very on sided indeed.

If Chelsea do get to the CL final, the FA Cup final could be a stroll for Everton.

Today's result doesn't really change much for us, have to win our home games starting with Pompey at home a week tomorrow. Lose that and we're pretty much down.

Said a few weeks ago that the final relegation spot was between ourselves, Hull, Sunderland and Blackburn. Still is to be fair, although looking likely to be either us or Hull. Torture.

Have to play 4-3-3 with Viduka and Martins up front with Owen in the hole. Could really do with Barton back next week. Guthrie back in the team would also be nice, in place of those two useless lovers in the centre of midfield. Even Smith would do, who didn't do too badly today to be fair.
