This week we discuss in depth the surrender of Chelsea at Old Trafford; whether Rafael Benitez has lost the plot; is Howard Webb the greatest referee in Europe or a card-happy slaphead; whether hairstyles among Premier League players are not only becoming embarrasingly retro but are somehow linked to previous recessions; whether there's a vendetta against Marouane Fellaini or whether the reality is that he is both clumsy and dirty, and finally we'll be pondering why Mark Hughes can't spend his money.
Letter of the week goes to United supporter Shane in the interests of preserving the Red-Red balance in these columns. Let's have the address Warney, and the prize will be on its way.
