well today was quite a big day in the EPL. mourinho gave his younger players a chance and chelsea was without their top guns and they went down 1-0 to Newcastle United. but that didn't have any effect on Chelsea. the main match was Arsenal against Wigan Athletic. this was arsenal's last match in HIGHBURY, their mecca for the last 93 years. they will be moving to a new stadium. plus this happened to be the last EPL game that the famously non-flying former dutch striker Dennis Bergkamp played for Arsenal. he will be hanging up his boots probably after the champions league final. the main thing was arsenal had to win this contest to move on to the 4th position in the EPL table rankings and automatically qualify for the next year's champions league qualifiers else their bitter rivals tottenham hotspurs would have done so. and Arsenal did just that. they beat wigan 4-2 with Henry scoring a hat-trick. and to rub salt to the wound of spur's fans, west ham beat tottenham hotspurs 2-1. now the main thing which was in news today was that during MAN U's match against Charlton Athletic, MAN U striker RUUD VAN NISTELROOY left the match and went home. the reason was first, his non-inclusion in starting line-up of today's game and second, when he came to know that his name was not in the list of players whose contract has been renewed. YES SIR ALEX FERGUSON HAS DONE IT AGAIN, first we saw David Beckham leave, then we saw Roy Keane leave, now (and don't read this if u are a MAN U fan) apparently Ruud Van Nistelrooy won't be seen playing for MAN U ever again. he might be considering some transfer offers coming up his way. yes these are the first impressions and this might be confirmed in the next few days. but this was bound to happen some day, MAN U never gave their stars a well deserved and happy sending off anyways.
