Then again, Arsenal and Pool have yet to visit Old Trafford, so it is certainly not over yet.
Utd player well on Saturday, but Newcastle were shocking. Still, you can only beat what is put in front of you, something Arsenal and Liverpool both failed to do at the weekend . . .
And it is now reported that Gilette and Hicks held talks with Klinsmann in November about the possibility of becomign Liverpool manager - will Benitez see the end of the season?
Anderson is a superb signing for UTD, frightening that a central midfielder has that power at 19.Thank God Arsenal have Fabregas.The question about the gunners role in the title race will be if they have enough classy flair players to unlock other teams in tough games.Chelsea look like they have a settled atmosphere in their squad and with Anelka and Drogba available for the run in will be thereabouts.
Chelsea still have to play Man U, Arsenal and Liverpool at home so that'll definitely have an impact on the top four.
Just like the Man U praise, I think all this criticism of Arsenal drawing 1-1 with Birmingham and thinking they're out is stupid. Every team has slip-ups, sure Man U lost to West Ham a few weeks ago.
Imo, it'll be between Arsenal and Man U. Both sides play very well, imo Arsenal are better. Chelsea may get 2nd but I don't think they'll be 1st, unfortunately. Liverpool will be lucky to snatch 4th.
Very good signing, has lots of potential, but I don't think he has been as brilliant this season as people are making him out to be. He has shown climses of his class but he gives the ball away far too often. I'd still rather have Scholes, Hargreaves or Carrick in the starting line up ahead of him.Quote:

another thing i often said to myself when people say that you only beat the smaller teams or you couldnt beat the other 'big 3' is you play 32 games against the other clubs, only 6 against the big 3....for instance when people say ronaldo only plays well against the smaller teams, thats only about 6 games a season he dosnt play great??
Thats a fair point but surely to be truly "world class" then he has to do it against the better teams? theres no doubt the boy is talented but he has a side to his game that there is no need for, the cheating, diving about the place to win frees/penalties, Rooney although he hasn't the goals this season is a better all round player without the theatrics.Quote:

it's a very nice headache for SFA to have really, 4 top notch central midfielders who would all just about walk into any other side in the Premiership. Anderson has surprised a lot of people this season, the hype was about Nani and Anderson was one for the future, but due to injuries he has taken his chance really well and it will be tough for any of the others to dislodge him when they all get fit.Quote:

Agreed. Great in the tackle, good going forward and great distribution. Similar to evra on the other side.Quote:

Say what you want about Ronaldo, in the few times ive been to see him play he never stops running, and as for rooney, an exceptional footballer, and football brain
Which is why i think he's gonna be so good. Should score goals than Gary Neville ever did. A guaranteed 5 goals a season man.Quote:
