Last night was a really good episode. The series not so much but the final episode made it a lot better.

The racing was awesome and I had a smile on my face for the entire segment, Slash playing the theme tune was great as was Kimi's interview. I also liked May taking the Ferrari around Windsor Park, all in all (Y)

Wigan more than deserve that. Victor Moses rounds John Ruddy to make it 1-1.

Redknapp's interview on MOTD was a bit strange to say the least.

Sky's preview to the 2012 Season was fantastic, I loved the whole two hours.

The two shows about Fittipaldi and Sir Jackie were great aswell.

Ugh, Valencia.

I know it's a new track and they don't want to give up on it, but they have to do something to make it more interesting.

David De Gea

Poor sod, he played his heart out and seemed so frustrated without Ferdinand in front of him. Terrible performance by United and we didn't even deserve the result we got, could have been so much worse. Rafael should hang his head in shame for that third goal.

All credit to Bilbao though, they played some great football.

I just want an updated database really.

I saw Steam downloading something and got all excited thinking that FINALLY it was the patch.

It was not

It was the patch!

For the Editor...

With a bit of luck that means 12.2 will be out soon.

I suppose to summarise, both of the following statements could be (and perhaps are) equally true:

1. "When Drogba plays, he scores more goals than Torres would."

2. "When Torres plays, Chelsea score more goals than with Drogba."

I know which one my priority is.

(P.S. Panic buy nothing. Liverpool agreed to sell a couple of weeks prior, but wanted to keep it quiet so that they could sew up the Suarez deal without being fleeced by Ajax knowing they had £50m to spend.)

Didn't know this.

Oh and wouldn't it just be easier to play Sturridge up front on his own with Torres and Drogba in the stands?

You shouldn't spend £50m on anyone, would to me seem the better view to take.

And the "he is there to score goals" is a funny one to me, a rather blinkered way of looking at any player and their respective 'role', not just Torres.

He's there as part of a team that is meant to score goals and not concede them, thereby winning games. Is he not equally important when he takes up a position to defend corners? Are defenders who score goals "doing it wrong"?

Creating the goal or putting it across the line, as long as the goals actually get scored...so what?

They're not doing it wrong, but it's a bonus if a defender scores a goal, that's not what he's in the team for, he's in the team to 'defend'. By the same token, a striker is in the team to 'strike', to score if you will.

I do agree, though, that you shouldn't spend £50m on anyone, especially as a panic buy on the last day of the January Transfer Window.

Not really, you don't spend £50m on a striker who only gives assists.

I get that he works hard for the team but when it comes down to it, he was bought to score goals.

Great win for United. The next eight games are absolutely crucial, every single one of them looks easy enough on paper, we must be ahead of City going into the derby at the end of April.

I thought Ferdinand was fantastic today, Evra and Jones, not so much.

Usual suspects at fault today?

AVB out Stok?

Lovely goal.

Gary Cahill had been waiting for the big ball forward for about thirty seconds

Such a shame for Smalling, he's been in great form for United at CB this season and I thought he'd done really well tonight alongside Cahill.

Gerrard off, Sturridge on.

Welbeck and Sturridge up top?

Apart from the fact that Barry has had a pretty good year for City?

We must have been watching a different player then because in my opinion he's been one of City's worst players this (and last for that matter) season.

Adam Johnson instead of Sturridge? Don't agree with that one and I'm still baffled as to how Gareth Barry gets in the England XI.

Good to hear about De Gea.

Had a chance to go to the game today but I went last time back in 2004/2005 and that didn't go too well, glad to get the points today though.

I think i jinxed De Gea. Was just about to post some praise and then Norwich scored.

Was De Gea at fault for the goal then?

Oh for goodness sake Tom, keep yourself fit.

Remember this one?

I had that kit, my mum bought it for me on my 6th birthday, just after Euro '96.
