This is a really really dire game absolutely nobody is doing anything

In fact loads of fans are buggering off for a tea or maybe home

We are having plenty of corners but the crowd are pissed off and booing

Terry (I think) header cleared off the line by Scharner.

ooo Anelka soo close with a header!

I'm not impressed at all so far. Wigan are outplaying us and have had the better chances.

Family member ill for Lampard - I hope everything is okay.

Yep I know it's breaking news. I don't know who comes on the bench for Belletti though...

Illness not injury it seems...

NEW TEAM: Cech Belletti Alex Terry Bridge Essien Mikel Ballack Anelka Malouda Kalou

Lampard injured in the warm up

This should be interesting - very strange to see Ferreira playing for the reserves though. I'd have picked him tonight.

Oh shit Drogba going off and Alex on - 3 at the back again

Anelka about to come on for Kalou. Alves missed an open goal for them after crazy play by Cudicini!

Ballack off Wright-Phillips on

Drogba-Anelka or Drogba-Shevchenko could kill them!

I think we need to make subs soon - crowd getting very restless

True 4-4-2 does pose major problems - whether we go diamond like last season or with wingers. Essien at right back seemed to work though and I think I'd go along with that for the next match.

Do we go 4-4-2 for the rest of the season now?

Come on Villa on Sat! We need Man Utd to lose somewhere along the lines and Villa are a team who can win and lose to anyone!

Drogba killed them!

Class stufff! and we have to say - class substitution by Grant!

5 mins added! May as well add another half!

Joe Cole OFF Mikel ON

Oh ref Hleb fouled Terry not the other way around FFS
