Matchday 12:A second chance to live up to midweek football

Let's start with an apology. There are no results this week due to a perfect storm of a family bereavement and my laptop deciding that enough was enough too. Unfortunately, I hadn't yet stored this season's stats document anywhere else, and so have temporarily lost the data - I can recover everyone's except for WSC, and would rather publish them properly so I'll do that when I've recovered the contents of my hard drive - hopefully for next week.

A quick word about that Zlatan lad - good feet for a big man but he's no Peter Crouch, who scored loads of bicycle kicks and stuff. Crouchy literally is doing it on a cold Tuesday night in Stoke...whilst Zlatan gets to swan around on the Cote D'Azur. I know who I'd rather have in my 5-a-side game...

The chutzpah of goals 3 & 4 was remarkable, and by all accounts, drew applause from the England fans in Stockholm as well. Still reckon Hart should have saved the free kick, and probably the blasted 2nd goal - not mentioning his horrendous attempt at a clearing header. Is Sol Campbell doing his coaching badges? I swear he used to head the ball half the length of the pitch sometimes...

Anyway, not much else to mention so to this week's predictions:

Arsenal vs Spurs - ARSENAL
Liverpool vs Wigan - DRAW
Man City vs Aston Villa - MAN CITY
Newcastle vs Swansea - DRAW
QPR vs Southampton - QPR
Reading vs Everton - EVERTON
WBA vs Chelsea - CHELSEA (just)
Norwich vs Man Utd - MAN UTD
Fulham vs Sunderland - FULHAM
West Ham vs Stoke - WEST HAM

Total odds: 1278/1 with PaddyPower

Y'all know what to do by now - good luck!
