Award for the best “park the bus “

Has to be Chelsea given their status as defending champions, I can understand the tactic from the bottom half teams but not from a team in 5th place needing a win to get back into top 4 contention. Even when 1 down they barely made a token effort to get back in the game.
 
The best one ever in history was Liverpool 0 Chelsea 2 which put the title race back in our hands and sent the Scousers into meltdown.

Everton against 10 men deserve a special mention

Often overlooked that the only team to take a point from the Etihad played against ten men for the majority of the game , the headlines after the game were about Granny shaggers second coming as the saviour of Everton , then their manager is sacked a couple of weeks later .Let's not to ignore likkle Wigan in th FA Cup and their attacking heroics against ten men ,managing just the one shot on target , and if they dont get promotion Cook will be shown the door and the Wigan managerial merry go round will start again.
 
Has to be Chelsea. No other team has had players 'close down' by walking over, stopping a yard away and scratching their chin. It was pathetic.
 
Top 3 has to be, Newcastle away, Huddersfield away and united away. You can forgive anyone coming to the Etihad with 11 men behind the ball but to do it at home is another thing.

Perhaps because the scoreline wasnt a hammering, It's often overlooked how embarrassingly negative United was in their own backyard at a time where the gap wasnt a gaping chasm and a win could have switched momentum from us to them. We won the title that day.
 
Which was the one where the keeper had a problem with his boots that he needed to sort out at every goal kick?
