United 2 nil and then I want the United players to celebrate like they've won the league again like Liverpool did at Anfield earlier on in the season.

Would be very surprised if Liverpool win at Old Trafford in a season where a good performance is soon followed by an average one.

Man utd not to lose anyway and Watford to get beaten ha ha

Well you have to say that was some performance, Torres is world class, he didnt even look fully fit but caused Vidic and Ferdinand all sorts of problems. Even Lucas Levia almost looked like a decent player.

Seriously though that is some result and seen in the context of the Madrid matches they are picking up some form now.

Anyone know how much Man Utd paid for Tevez?

**Closed Account 2** · 14/03/2009, 3:53 PM

�20 million, but I think that for a 3-4 season loan.

Not too far off the mark. Man U were very poor I thought. Does Rooney work out on the left? Don't think so. Strange he should start without 3 of his best players (Scoles, Giggs and Berbetov) in a league decider.

**shakermaker1982** · 16/03/2009, 1:23 PM

I cannot recall a time when Man Utd have made so many individual defensive errors. Shocking performance and I expect a big response from the team. Maybe the warning signs were there after they put in an average performance against Inter last week? You cannot give a class act like Torres opportunities like that. Carrick and Anderson were also woeful. No protection and offered nothing going forward. I wouldn't be surprised if Scholes and Fletcher start against Fulham next weekend.

Is Berbatov considered one of their best players?

I assume SAF considers he is.

Man U lose again. Could there be a twist at the end of the season? I doubt it. Liverpool aren't consistent enough to mount a challenge.

At the other end Newcastle and Middlesboro both now in serious trouble but I'd saty it is still likely that Stoke will join WBA going back down with 'Boro now looking like accompanying them down.

**tetsujin1979** · 22/03/2009, 1:58 PM

could be any 2 from 5 joining West Brom, Newcastle, Middlesbrough, Stoke are all looking weak, Hull are in freefall and Pompey could get sucked back into it

**shakermaker1982** · 22/03/2009, 7:54 PM

Newcastle Utd's run in looks very difficult. I'd say WBA, Boro and Newcastle to go down. Newcastle need to appoint somebody in the interim because Houghton and Calderwood seem to be struggling.

Consistent being over a course of games not just one , Though they do look good at the moment I would hesitate to put any amount of cash on them to win the league.

Wonder does he still think Berbatov one of his best players? Hopefully he does!

**OwlsFan** · 23/03/2009, 9:05 AM

Wouldn't read too much in to the Villa result. Villa have been very poor of later and have been over achieving with an average squad. That said 4-4-5 in the last 3 games in not a bad return for Liverpool. Can they keep it up? I doubt it but at least it makes for a more interesting end of season for the title. Liverpool also have the more difficult run in I think.
