Week 15 review

Lee Bowyer proved he can still mix it at the top level by getting Birmingham's winning goal over Fulham, a rare Emile Heskey goal gave Villa a late point away at Burnley and Chelsea continued to score for fun as they whooped Wolves 4-0 at the Bridge.

West Ham blew it at the KC, after being two-up - Franco and Collison scoring, they then found themselves 3-2 down at half-time after a own goal from Cole, Zayatte and then a penalty from Bullard gave City the lead. Da Costa did win the Hammers a point though.

Liverpool and Citeh played out an excellent 2nd half at Anfield as it finished 2-2. Utd easily saw off Everton 3-0 at the OT. Darren Bent put behind him a disappointing England performance to beat Arsenal 1-0 at The Stadium of Light and on the Sunday Blackburn went to the Reebok and won 2-0. Dunn and a Ricketts own goal, Ricado Fuller helped Stoke to 3 valuable points at home to Pompey in Paul Hart's last game.

And finally in the result of the weekend, Spurs put 9 past a woeful Wigan - costing the Wigan players about 200 quid in returning the ticket money to the 67 Wigan fans that travelled to the Lane. Defoe singled handedly made this a great N&R FL week if you have him in your side, by scoring 5. Lennon also scored and had 3 assists. Other scorers were Crouch, Kranjcar, and then an unfortunate o.g. from 'keeper Kirkland, who despite the scoreline actually played a blinder. Scharner got Wigan's goal after clearly handling.

Plenty of you have Defoe and Lennon in your sides, sadly for Paul Long he has Wigan defender Boyce, the only manager to have a Wigan defender in their line-up!
