Boxing Day 2008 was immortalised by Phil Brown for one of the most iconic team talks in Premier League history.The Tigers looked to be suffering from a Christmas day hangover in the first half and found themselves 4-0 down to the Sky Blues at half time.Brown sat his men down on the pitch in front of the travelling Hull fans and unleashed a very public verbal tirade.
9Manchester United 4-3 Newcastle, 2012
This game saw Champions-elect Man United come from behind three times to steal a dramatic victory.James Perch gave the Magpies an early lead before Jonny Evans equalised, but the United defender cancelled out his goal by then turning the ball into his own net, restoring Newcastle’s lead. Patrice Evra levelled once again with a low drive before a Papiss Cisse special made it 3-2.
