The hypnotised, game-changing Premier League review

RESULTS Sat Feb 20 Arsenal 2-0 Sunderland, Everton 3-1 Manchester United, Portsmouth 1-2 Stoke, West Ham 3-0 Hull, Wolvers 0-2 Chelsea Sun Feb 21 Aston Villa 5-2 Burnley, Blackburn 3-0 Bolton, Fulham 2-1 Birmingham, Manchester City 0-0 Liverpool, Wigan 0-3 Tottenham

There was quite a contrast between the biggest games of the weekend, in which both Manchester sides took on their Merseyside rivals. One was good. The other wasn't.

I hope the Evertonians I met last week hadnâÂÂt bet on red for their game, an all-action encounter at Goodison Park which saw two inspired substitutions from EvertonâÂÂs David Moyes. In a clash of the you're-not-from-round here names, Diniyar BilyaletdinovâÂÂs screamer soon cancelled out Dimitar BerbatovâÂÂs early opener.

Which brings us to a new head-to-head competition between Manchester UnitedâÂÂs ã30.75m striker Dimitar Berbatov and own goals scored for the Red Devils.

After BerbatovâÂÂs strike this weekend, the Bulgarian is on nine league goals, just one behind the own goals (not to be mistaken for Owen goals) scored on behalf of Manchester United. Keep an eye out for this race, I think itâÂÂs going to go right to the wire.

And finally, check out KasabianâÂÂs unique unveiling of the âÂÂnewâ England away kit.

Once again weâÂÂve gone for a flashback to the âÂÂ66 kit, hoping the boys can relive that wonderful day in July only 40-something years ago, forgetting that the same kit keeps getting remade for every tournament without much luck.
