I know I`d had a couple on Saturday but I don`t remember Reid being in inspirational form and creating chance after chance in a dynamic display .

Must have been the Charlton game.

Nope.

From the link...

"Meanwhile, two midfielders illuminated the City of Manchester Stadium with stellar displays as Stuart Pearce's City fought out an enthralling stalemate with Mark Hughes' Blackburn.

Steven Reid was in inspirational form for Rovers, creating chance after chance in a dynamic display that showed just why he has become such an important player for both Blackburn and the Republic of Ireland, for whom he has 15 caps. "

Then it goes on about Kiki Musampa.

To all those who actually believed Reid was in the team of the week through merit, please take the pain of clicking that link and seeing who the other ten players are in soccernet's "Tem of The week"

Granted, it says "Team of the Week", not "Best XI of the week"

One clue, Crouch is there, as is Titus Bramble

"And although Crouch might currently have his critics for a lack of goals, but he can at least claim an assist on Bolo Zenden's first goal, cleverly missing his penalty to allow the Dutch midfielder the luxury of an easy rebound. "

"Titus Bramble performed with trademark composure and discipline in Newcastle's 3-0 defeat at the hands of champions Chelsea, and was desperately unlucky to finish on the losing side. "

Oh...Rover4ever - you spoilt it! Was wondering if anyone was going to be taken in by it.

Manager of the week...Alex Mcleish If they are including the Scots league they should have made room for wee Bazza Ferguson.

Swines.

Can I just say that I didn`t follow the link and merely read 4LBs post, thus not making me look a proper twonk?

Highlight of the game had to be the presence of Eddie Murphy who did an excellent job of inpersonating the head steward. He was ably assisted by Jim Bowen too.

A friend texted me to say that he went to the match and very nearly died

of boredom

Its not racist at all, just a factual observation.

Anyway, just seen the interview with Hughes on Rovers World, says Tugay is a doubt for the Arsenal game. Darn!
