Good to see Pulis not complaining again.Stoke manager Tony Pulis, who was furious with referee Chris Foy over Pavel Pogrebnyak's second half tackle on Wilson Palacios: "I've had a player who pulled out of a tackle last week and got a three match ban, Pogrebnyak's tackle was ten times as bad and he didn't even get booked. If Chris Foy didn't see it then Kevin Friend certainly did. I'm disappointed with the inconsistency in the Premier League - we need some clarification on tackles."
BBC Sport's football expert.I saw Thierry Henry's goal on his Gunners comeback in their win over Leeds in the FA Cup on Monday. I think we are going to see Henry come on with 20 minutes or so to go quite a lot in the next few weeks but I'm not sure that we will see him find the net too many more times.
In fact I'd be interested to see what the odds are for him not scoring again. I'm willing to make a sportsman's bet that he won't find the net again in any competitive game until he goes back to New York.
He came on against Leeds, a Championship team, late in the game when they were tired. He still has great touch and great vision but I am not sure that will be enough in the Premier League.

Was he also expecting Henry to be demoted to the reserves?he won't find the net again in any competitive game
That's a pretty epic faceplant.
Evra was so lucky Rio got in the way, he was going to wipe Suarez out otherwise.
Muppetts did the BBC score predictions this week.
Kermit and Miss Piggy were there too
Spurs game is on first on MOTD. I shall delay switching on the telly. Stoke game is last. Enough time for Pulis to put together a dossier and send it in...then again, we're Stoke and we don't complain.
MOTD order;
Spurs v Newcastle
Man Utd v Liverpool
Everton v Chelsea
Sunderland v Arsenal
