its down to 2 points .....
and i fancy everton wining on monday too .....
Am not overly worried if am honest.
We will beat everton.
And the best united can hope for away @ Bolton is a draw. There a difficult team to break down as it is nevermind with 5 or 6 of your first team squad out with injuries.
A draw would be a good result for united. You struggled against Wigan in the week at times.
And that was with Tevez, Rooney, Evans..
Albeit Rooney for 6 mins.
the funny thing is that you obviously actually believe that liverpool can win the title :lol:
and as for the best united can hope for against bolton is a point :lol: i'm not saying it'll be an easy game or that united will get the three points, but the best united can hope for against any team at any ground is a win, it wasn't the best performance against wigan, but before wednesday they were the premierships form team, and they put in a performance which shown that
i expect united to win on saturday and take top spot, it will then be down to liverpool to beat everton and take it back, albeit for a short time
makes me laugh at times with kopites , even a lot of the fans are douting they will win it .... a draw haha well i expect 3 points simple as that !!
yes we have a few injurys but we have had all season to players , but we have the players to bring in to do a job ...
park , anderson , carrick , scholes nani will be fired up for the midfield ... with tevez & berb up front .... the back 4 will be normal bar rio .... raf , vidic , evans and oshit ....
only players we are missing for the game are
rooney
evra
brown
rio
hargreevs
giggs ( but will prob be on the bench )
others have trained and been ok following knocks V Wigan
It's far from impossible Liverpool will win it, it'd be great if they did, just as Man U nearly catch them up they move ahead again!
sir? what a muppet!
you've been beaten down with the football talk so now it's personal insults, go back to watching rugby :)
looks as though evans and tevez are starting, as i said
yep,now your top.but you are hardly setting the world on fire.more points will be dropped befor the end of the season. and we can go top again wih a win on monday.
aye correct that you are !! its going to go to the wire this season , no dout about that !!
its a shame arsenal sliped now and again cos it would of made it more interesting ... tho they are on a good run again and with villa in the mix still it could be a exciting end to the season ....
still a lot of hard work has gone in to getting back to the top after a poor start .. yes we aint scoring enough but it will all come in time ....
There are still plenty of games and enough games with the top 4 playing each other to have an impact on the end. Also, the CL and FA cup can tire teams and create injuries as we have seen in previous seasons, so Arsenal do still have a chance if they won all their games.
united top now, where they belong, ten clean sheets in a row, that's a defensive record that any team in the world would be envious of, not playing the best football but still picking up points which is what matters right now, we've gone from being eight points behind liverpool in the league to over taking them in the space of seven days, united deserve credit, it was a decent enough performance yesterday, we created chances, more goals will come, i have no doubt of that
and if any team is gonna suffer due to the large amount of fixtures it's more likely to be chelsea or liverpool, united have the best squad in the league, by far, the way sir has had to rotate the first team over this past week shows that we're more than ready to challenge on all fronts
if i were a rival fan i'd be worried, because united are top and they have only shown rare flashes of their best this season thus far, if we start playing at our best there's no telling how far united can go this season
you could say exactly the same about us tho,we have been at the top of the leauge without one of the best strikers in the world.now hes back it is a massive boost.
i think its gona come down to the old trafford game.arse also travel to old trafford and anfield, i thinnk they will still havea say in it also
Dan i hope they do .... it looking like its going to be the best run in to the end of the season for a while all the top 5 still have a chance of finishing top ..also the other end of the table .... plenty of teams to cause an upset to stay in the league .....
i realy hope villa finish in the top 4 tho
innit ... torres is class
the lad has proper pissed me off tho iv got him in me works fantasy football team and hes not scored much or played .... in a way i need him back to get me some points BUT in the same breath i dont incase liverpool win games .... bah
weve blew it.
dont think we will win it now.
Skint? They just sold Bellamy for £14m! Though they do have a big wage bill I suppose.
Foreign ownership doesn't seem so good now.
to be honest i cant see liverpool winning the league......they are just not good enough yet......they have done really well up to now, but even all the wins weve had havent exactly been that convincing.....(except for the newcastle game and the good comebacks weve had)....
there have just been far to many average performances, and I cant see getting much better without signing some better players in a few areas........ overlapping fullbacks and a decent right winger especially!!
keane has still gotta come good......which im sure he will......last night i dont even think he touched the ball, but given time to form a partnership with torres something will happen...
thing is though benitez wont let that happen...........every game without fail he brings keane off on 60mins or he doesnt play at all.........putting that feeble rat benayoun on last night whose only contribution was a stupid unneeded sliding tackle when he could have easily just stood him up,,, which gave away a free kick and ended up a goal.....
before the goal he brings torres off for lucas......now were needin a winner but we dont have our 2 main strikers on the pitch but 2 extra midfielders....cant see where a goals comin from there....probably gerrard again if anyone.........dosent make sense to me....
if benitez dosent get a new contract and leaves i wouldnt be too bothered because his decision making in games just comes across as clueless and unnessacery, ........and team selections sometimes....like against stoke, one of the most physical teams in the prem, so he starts benayoun and lucas...not exactly known for bein the strongest of players are they?
he knew that man united had struggled to break them down a week or two earlier so he puts goal machine dirk up front on his own instead of torres or keane who were both fit to play.....
were gonna need a lot of luck or a big improvement or some better management i think if we are goin to be challenging for the title
no.i just think we have had plenty of opportunities and blew them all.if you have serious title hopes you ct draw as many as we have.sure we have only lost 1 game all season, but u mit aswell lose 2 then win the next rather than 2 draws.
when it has come to the crunch we have failed.
however we are still havin a good season imo,and are continuing to improve under benitez.
Only time will tell, with the amount of first team injuries you have now.
Wigan is a big game for us. Just because we drew one game with Everton.
People are quick to forget that united, chelsea and arsenal all drew against them also. Its a derby ffs, you can never call games like that..
United Vs City last season anyone? :eek:
United have done well fair enough, but lets put this into perspective, if they win them all (fulham) and we would of won all our drawn games then we would still only be ahead by 3 or 4 pts. Not a great margin but a margin at that.
United will lose and draw games from now till the end of the season and so will liverpool. I dont see why everyone is panicking so much and saying its over...
United have been scraping 1-0s for god knows how long now, there 3 pts fair enough but with over half the first team out and them not playing great its inevitable that they will slip up at some point and hopefully we can gain on it.
Torres was shattered what was the point of having him on the pitch. The decisions is not what caused the goal. The decisions were sensible.
Keane had been running round like a headless chicken and and not touched the ball at all. He brought benayoun on and liverpool scored? Torres like i said was exhausted it was like 83 minute, so he brought on lucas to tighten up the midfield and add more to defence. Kuyt was upfront who can run and run..
If you want to blame anyone for the goal, blame carra who was caught out of position all night, it was him who should of been tackling not benayoun as benayoun was doing his work, you can then point the finger at riera who should of stuck his neck in and headed the crossed ball, and big sami for watching cahill lose his man and not tell anyone...
You cant blame rafa for everything...
United have drawn more though and lost more so it doesnt hold any water.
They win there game in hand they will be 3 pts ahead and we still have to play them at OT?
Seriously what big crunch. The last couple of games have been bad results but we aint lost. United went through a bad patch themselves, all teams do. We were top of the league for nearly 2 months. And are joint top now.
If you think that we were gonna stay there for the rest of the season then your in cloud cuckoo land mate. Name me one team in the last few seasons that has stayed top from November through to May?
:eek:
it's well funny that you're holding on to your belief that liverpool can still win it :lol:
the fact is liverpool , utd arsenal chelsea villa can all still win it !!!
yeh we all have banter etc and joke around but lets face it .. Every Utd fan has in there mind what if liverpool do win it !! its faceing the impossible , liverpool may have pride ( 18 league winners ) to lose, so to let utd match it is also unthinkable for such a club ... but what else ? nothing the longer liverpool hold out and keep picking up points the more we will wonder if they can go the full stint .... and lets face it even without torres ... so yes they do still have a very good chance .... the game @ OT will no dout swing which way it will go ....
haha even thinking about it none of the top 5 have really hit top form !!!
I dont think its a matter of the big 4 not hitting form.
I believe it has alot to do with the way away teams set up against them. 10 men behind the ball and hope not to lose. A point is as a good as a win for them.
Although atleast they are having a go on their home patch against the big teams.
ok dan i will speak the truth then and not sit on the fence ...
LIVERPOOL ARE SHIT , not a chance of winning jack shit !! your poor manager aint got a clue and is cracking up !! your top class strike force cant hit a barn door !! Keane haha 20M haha darren bent is much better !!! haha .... no gerrard and its game over 1 man team !! torres has been shit , scared of defenders kicking him and seems a utter joke this season !!!
defenders .... skertal ... = ****ing shite !!! cant head the ball ... cara haha infact your back 4 is just poor !!! midfield ... hmm your best player this season gets droped ?? (alonso) again cos the fatty incharge is brainless !! as for sloth haha well you just have to look at him to find out the answer !!
matter is i said at the start you wouldnt handle it , and look whats happened .... from 8 points behind .. to possible 5 points ahead on same games played !!! how things change!!!
face it dan .... this year wont be no19 nor will next or even the next 10 years !!!! This ship will never dock in liverpool !!!
