Unfortunately it looks like Chelsea's title to lose. Should get their African contingent back now and they have hardly put a foot wrong the past month or so. I think only some sort of off field scandal could throw their title challenge off course....oh hang on

When I went to see Spurs v Man U at the Lane in 2008, I was actually more impressed by Nani than Ronaldo that day.
The boy has some awesome tricks, but is very inconsistent.
That vid is Ronaldo/Berba/Messi/Zidane-esque though.

He is very inconsistent but is starting to show good signs, earlier in the season his final ball was either poor or too slow in coming.

Nani can't even explain how he managed to do that trick, the reaction of the two Arsenal players trying to stop him is priceless though. :lol:
Doing that in such an important game shows the kid is full of class.

Not that a follow this team, but heard that its 100 years to the day that Man Utd have been at Old Trafford. Congrats to them. But the first game there was a defeat to there most bitter rivals Liverpool 4-3.

Disappointing result last night. We had our chances early in the second half to score again but didn't take them whereas Everton put theirs away. Hopefully Vidic is fit to start next match.

Was it that he wasn't fit, or is it true that he's had a big bust up and falling out with Fergie?

Lots of rumors doing the rounds that he'll be out in Summer. Could this be why he's on the bench, with Fergie preferring Johny Evans and Wes Brown?

I did hear talk about that some time ago but lately both parties have denied that rumour.

We won't know for sure until the summer I guess but I really hope there is no problem as he is quality.

Protesting against the Glazers. Green and Gold were the original colours when the club was founded at Newton Heath in 1878.

all this protesting to the owners??? what for tho? i dont get it. The club is second in the premier league? they are playing carling cup final? they are still in the champions league?

If it was portsmouth, or newcastle i would see why. They have some money problems but i dont see this being the same problem as portsmouth? So what the hell is there problem?

But that's why they're protesting. If the owners continue as they are, Man U will be exactly where Pompey are very, very soon.

Fair play to them. It's a great protest.

Nope - why would you want any club to go into administration? But it would be great to see them at the foot of the table for a little while!

As you're aware, I ******* hate arsenal, but I'd also hate for them to go into administration meaning there were no more north London Derbies for me to get excited then shattered about!
