Man Utd thrash 10 men Baggies
West Brom 0-5 Man Utd
Manchester United thrashed ten men West Brom 5-0 which meant that the champions are now three points clear at the top.
The win also meant that United have broken a new record in which they went 11 games without conceding.
After the game was delayed by 30 minutes, Dimitar Berbatov opened the scoring in the 22nd minute after exchanging passes with Michael Carrick.
West Brom were giving a fight until Paul Robinson was sent off after a challenge on Park Ji-Sung. Carlos Tevez then took advantage of a Scott Carson mistake, after the Baggies keeper spilled the ball into the path of the Argentinian.
With a 2-0 lead, United were in control of the game. Nemanja Vidic easily heading home the third. Giggs then released Ronaldo to make it 4-0, before the Portugese winger got his second and Man United’s fifth when he converted Berbatov’s pass.
Man Utd will now play Everton at the weekend, while Chelsea and Liverpool play on Wednesday night before they face against each other on Sunday.

I was particularly impressed with the understanding between Carrick and Berbatov. Their partnership has looked terrific in the last few games. Also nice to see Ronaldo on his way back to top form.
