Chelsea
- BChelsea are also going really well at the moment. Guus Hiddink has
done a brilliant job to get back to basics and get results. Theyre safe
now, so they can have a really good push to the end of the season and
theyve got these cup competitions as well to concentrate on.Im giving
them a B because they fought back against a very hard and good
Southampton side. They showed a bit of character to get a good win in
the end.Manchester United - BI was at the game against Arsenal, and
credit to United, they took advantage and it was brilliant from the
young kid Marcus Rashford again to score another two goals. Scoring
three goals at home was excellent for Louis van Gaal and it gives them a
chance now for the top four. Theyll be very happy with the win because
its always a big game.
Marcus Rashfords fairytale continued as he scored twice on his Premier
League debut to help Manchester United to a 3-2 win over Arsenal at Old
Trafford Liverpool - BI thought both
teams really had a go at Wembley and it was a great game to watch.
Liverpool were very unlucky in the end not to win it and penalties is a
cruel way to lose a cup final, but those are the rules. They were three
poor penalties in the end though that were well saved.Manchester City -
BAgain, both teams were very good, and it was a good cup final. Fair
play to Willy Caballero, he had a brilliant shoot-out as the cup
goalkeeper ahead of Joe Hart and he made three good stops to win the
Capital One Cup for City.
Highlights from Wembley as Liverpool and Manchester City met in the
Capital One Cup final Tottenham -
BThis is another team that keeps getting results. Being 1-0 down (at
home to Swansea) showed that character as well and Mauricio Pochettinos
done an amazing job. Its a very young side who are growing together with
a good energy and are real title contenders now.Stoke - BStoke had that
little bit of a blip and were moving down the table but then theyve had
some good results lately. Beating Bournemouth away was a big result and
they followed it up with a win against Aston Villa. Everyone probably
expected them to win at home against a struggling Villa, but theyve
still got to do the job.They had that little bit of good fortune going
2-0 up, and youre thinking the points are in the bag but Villa fought
back with the goal, although it wasnt enough to save them anything from
the game. Stoke are showing a much better character now and much better
performances.West Bromwich Albion - BWest Brom were brilliant in the
first half. Crystal Palace were very poor but West Brom went out there,
got the three-goal advantage and it was a brilliant performance so
credit to them.
Ray
Parlour thinks West Brom are now safe from a relegation battle following
their 3-2 win against Crystal Palace Scoring
three goals at home is a bonus as well because at times, theyve been a
bit lacklustre in front of goal and havent scored enough but now theyve
got three so a good performance all round that really puts them safe now
for me.Leicester - CLeicester ground out their 1-0 win over Norwich,
but thats what youve got to do to be champions when you play poorly.
They had that two-week break, and were probably thinking about the
Arsenal game that they lost in the last minute so sometimes its
difficult to have that amount of time off, but again they came back and
got the result. The most important thing at the end of the day is the
three points, no matter how you play. I thought it was a good
performance, similar to West Ham with how they played and what they
achieved.

Norwich - CYou could probably say they were unlucky. Again, they were a
bit like Sunderland in that they probably did enough to get a point as
well and that could have been vital for them staying up. Alex Neil will
probably be a little bit angry with the way it happened and he will say
that they deserved more from the game.Thats the problem they will have
for the rest of the season, they need to pick up points when they
deserve them and they certainly deserved a point at the weekend.West Ham
- C
Michail Antonio
scored the only goal during a 1-0 win against Sunderland on Saturday
Another good win for West Ham and theyre having a
great season so far. It was an important win going into the week that
theyve got - playing Spurs at home on Wednesday - so its a big week for
West Ham. It wasnt a great performance but its all about winning games
and getting three points on the board. They can play better but again,
theyre getting good results.Sunderland - CSunderland were unlucky at
West Ham. I thought they deserved a draw because they created chances.
Sam Allardyce alluded to it after the game, talking about having lots of
opportunities in the second half and that they did enough to get a
point. That will stand them in good stead going forward and they were
unlucky not to go away with something from the game.Bournemouth - C
Ray Parlour watched
Bournemouths draw with Watford and believes another few wins will see
the Cherries safe from relegation It was a good
battling point for Bournemouth at Watford and another point to safety.
It will probably be about 37 or 38 points to stay up this season and
Bournemouth are now on 29. Knowing that if they can get points away from
home is a bonus and if they can get a few wins at home, theyll be
staying in the Premier League.Swansea - CSwansea have got some big games
coming up. Theyve got Arsenal on Wednesday, but then theres a
three-game period where they are playing teams around them at the
bottom. Thats when they need to pick the points up. It wasnt a great
performance but Spurs is always a tough place to go.Arsenal -
DDefensively, it wasnt good enough from Arsenal, especially from the
back four who didnt push up enough at times and were a bit deep as a
side. It wasnt the greatest performance away from home, and this will be
the key for them now to get the away performances better than they did
at Man United.
Ray
Parlour identified a lack of leadership among the current Arsenal squad
as he reacts to their 3-2 defeat at Manchester United
Theyve got Spurs next and Man City later in the season
as well as West Ham and Everton, so there are some big away games coming
up and they have to play better than that.Southampton - DSouthampton
are having a great run at the moment. Its brilliant the way theyve moved
up the table, and its been a big plus having Fraser Forster back in the
side. It was always going to be a difficult game, Chelsea are now
playing much better. Their big players are playing on a regular basis
and consistency is so important, but Southampton will have a good run to
the end of the season.Maybe they were a bit unlucky with the Gary
Cahill incident to not get a penalty, but I think everything is going
well and Saints fans will be looking forward to the end of the
season.Aston Villa - DIt looks like Aston Villa are doomed. Its going to
be tough for them because no one expects them to stay up now. I think
its all about rebuilding the club for next season and trying to see whos
going to be there and whos moving on.
Aston Villa are now eight points adrift at the bottom
of the Premier League table Watford - DI was at
this game, and Watford missed some really good chances in the first
half. Odion Ighalo - who is usually so clinical in front of goal -
missed a couple of good chances and Artur Boruc made a really good save
from one of his efforts. It was probably a game that wasnt great to
watch, but this is what you expect. From Watfords point of view and for
missing those chances, Ill give them a D.Crystal Palace - DTheyve been
unbelievable since the start of this year, theyve only got one point so
theyre really struggling at the moment and theyve got to be careful.
They probably need another two wins to keep them up but they have only
had one point out of 10 so its a little bit of a worry for Alan Pardews
men. I still think theyll have enough and Yannick Bolasie being back is a
big bonus for them, but it wasnt a great performance, especially in
that first half.
