Funny how they always seem to get free's in those kinda positions. :evil:

Hahaha, agreed.
6 yellow cards handed out to Arsenal players.

And so ends Arsenals faint title hopes and another season without silverware. Personally, I can't say I'm disappointed, as for me it's a case of the best of a very bad bunch will probably take home the title.

Oh yeah, and your's is an unbiased opinion too eh. :wink:

Here's an unbiased opinion :

Utd are stong and always get physical when they go one down. They get the rub of the green when it comes to umpiring decisions and especially at Old Trafford. They get the big decisions and they always have the time clock on their side, an extra 5 minutes when they need it and a short call when they don't.

Aresenal are probably the best footballing side in the UK but they are soft. Hit them hard and they tend to dish up the ball. They lack enough goal scoring muscle up front and reply too much on Adebayor. Possible two or three quality players missing.

Chelski think the leagues owes them something for the privalidge of them just deciding to play. Full of quality but are the biggest bunch of divers and cheats in the entire professional league. Also win their fair share of free's in and around the box and harrass the referee with verbal diatribe when they don't get what they want. Play a poor brand of football compared to the other top 4 sides. Their location and the fact that the team all think they are celebraties is reflected in they way they conduct themselves on the field of play.

Liverpool are the Jekyle and Hyde side of the 4. When they put it together, they are awesome and could win the title, but when they are bad they can be aweful. Unfortunately they have lacked the consistency they need to be a real challenge. Player rotation has probably been their undoing and they totally rely on Steve Gerrard.

All 4 have gone through a period of off field chaos, Mouorinho and Abramovic, The glaziers, the failed / not failed buy out at Arsenal and of course Parry and crew at Liverpool. I suspect Liverpool has suffered the most from these disruptions,

Just an opinion fella's

That's why even as a supporter of another club, I love Stevie G. The bloke is amazingly good and has one of the biggest tickers in world football IMO.


I think he is a bit overrated. He hasn't had a great season which is one of the reasons Liverpool have failed to mount a title challenge yet again, he sometimes seems disinterested in the league, but the Pool only seem to care about Europe it seems. Stevie G is also terrible against Man Utd, never shows up.

Great comeback win for United, I was concerned when we let Arsenal in with terrible defending but thankfully a quick equaliser followed.
Hargreaves' free kick was superb, what a great strike. He has found some very good form of late which gives United another option.

Awesome effort by Wigan to grab a draw there, but how many times have Chelsea done that this season? They may have a brilliant record at home, but they have dropped late points a few times at Stamford Bridge.

Great goal by Heskey at the death!

Adelaideian and Gilbert & Sullivan both scored...

Good thing Pool won, or their would have been sh!t to pay. always a question mark over playing your reserve side especially in those crucial games. Not for Pool but for Bolton, Reading, Brum etc.

Rafa rests Torres, Gerrard etc for the CL semi next week, but they were still too good for Fulham. Just shows how far the gap is between the top 4 or 5 and the bottom.

EPL is real value for money. You get two leagues for the price of one.
