The time has come to steal from the endless talent pool of the internet. Enjoy these little tidbits – they are quite scrumptuous…

Berbatov continues to divide waters at Old Trafford, drilling two headers but failing to score against City. Richard Williams of the Guardian sublimely summed up Dimitar´s situation with a Marlon Brando quote: “Just because they shout action, it doesn´t mean you have to do anything.”

Is City for real? Oliver Holt of the Mirror is convinced. He correctly notes that this Manchester clasico has changed from an embarassing banana peel to a genuine game. Also, the City revolution continues to gather steam: “The revolutionaries are at the gates and scaling the fences. And the aristocrats inside the palace are finally beginning to realise that they just might have a problem.”

Oliver Kay of the Times of London was impressed by the two goal Darren Fletcher, noting that the biggest change has been a dose of confidence. However, his UK analogy confuses us Yanks – “It´s as if a penny has dropped.¨ But is a penny saved a penny earned?

Mike Norrish of the Telegraph focused on the timeless Ryan Giggs. Moved out left, the 35 year old Welshman has adapted his game from pace to passing, whipping in an array of dangerous crosses that would make David Beckham proud. He assisted a Fletcher header and the Owen winner. Speaking of the goal, Norrish concludes that “To show such clam amid such chaos is a true sign of chaos.”
