BoLOLton Wanderers. Game over after 20 minutes after two goals from Ronaldo. Five more for United please.

Chelsea 2-1 up away at Tottenham.

What is the Manchester United record for most goals/most league goals in a season?

Not sure, but apparently the most by a United winger is 32 by George Best. Ronaldo beats it with 33.

Yes.

One of those arrows that goes up and down and swerves around in the air a bit.

Awful tackle from Ashley cole near the end of the half, lucky hes still on the pitch. Mike Riley having a shocker.

Sorry but this may be me not realising a genius at work, but these free kicks are a nonsense, these balls are just daft. Like plastic air floaters. Hit it and it goes 10 different ways into the net. Daft.

I'm pretty sure it's the way he kicks it.

It's not though is it really, throughout the land you see shots go in where the ball has done right angles in the air. It's slightly more exaggerated with Ronaldo because apparantly he strikes the valve of the ball.

Get him a proper ball and see if he can do it.

Confirmed by Ronaldo himself. After the goal against Pompey he said he had simply learnt a technique for hitting it that made it swerve a lot, he said he didn't know where it would go after leaving his foot.

I think he knows where it's going, just not how it's going to get there.

Fair play to him for it, give you this ball then make the most of it, it looks absolutely brilliant but to me it's a bit false. The keeper goes the way the ball is going, it swerves all over the place and he's got ZERO chance of saving it if it's on target, it's not fair imo. Ronaldo is a tremendous player, absolutely sensational and his record this season is phenomenal but these free kicks just grate with me! Keepers union!
