It’s Pancake Day here in the UK and Chelsea certainly earned a sweet victory at Crystal Palace, are they were tossed closer towards the relegation zone which leaves major questions of if Roy Hodgson will remain as head chef at the Eagles.

So, do you give the blue card the red card, or welcome it into the game?

But what isn’t identical is their fate after those 31 games, with Potter sacked shortly after. So, why hasn’t Pochettino received the same treatment and is he given the benefit of doubt due to his relative success as a manager? ‘Wembley of the North’ was the phrase written by the media, as it’s reported that Jim Ratcliffe wants Old - or new - Trafford to become the best in the country. So, do United need a new stadium, and are they at risk of turning a sacred stadium into a soulless stage?
