The gap between Chelsea/Liverpool with Man U is now 4 points.
First of all, i wanna lol at jamie carragher for dismissing chelsea in the title race. He obviously hasn't fought that many times in a title race to be so quick as to dismiss chelsea.
I see Chelsea giving a tough fight till the end. The hiddink effect is working. Drogba and Lampard seem back to their best, as a few other stars.
Liverpool, i expect them to fizzle out. No torres and gerrard, die liao. Too dependent on these two.
Of course, Man U could suffer the same fate as Barcelona, two defeats in 2 weeks but I don't see that happening. Our defence is not as leaky as theirs and VDS's english record is not for nothing. Nobody calls vidic rock for nothing. And going by the principle of once bitten twice shy..... on how they lost the EPL to arsenal despite a huge lead in the new year of 200?, expect man u to go all out to win every match.
Tonight I predict Man u to pip newcastle by two goals. Pool and chelsea fans can suck it. What's not yours will never be yours.
the only thing I am worried is injury. if we can stay injury-free, the sky the limit..
i hope Ronaldo and Rooney can score against NUFC tonight, these 2 always score alot against them.
Fergie in axe threat
WARNING ... Alex Ferguson
Manchester United are top and chasing five trophies after the Carling Cup victory.
Ahead of tonight’s Newcastle clash, boss Fergie said: “Anyone thinking it’s over will have one go at it, it will be their last. We have plenty of bodies.”

ALEX FERGUSON says any star acting like the Premier League is won will be axed.

the key is SAF and MU, there is a certain level of respect with this team.. no big egos..
all just working for the team.. so I don't expect them to act the way like what SAF warns.
Normalcy resumed. But Man u defence including VDS, looked shaky at times. If Obafemi Martins had scored the second goal, it would have been a disaster. Mau u were lucky.
Gap restored to 7 points, if Man Utd win their game in hand and the gap becomes 10 points and if Man Utd beat Liverpool next week i think Liverpool are out of the title race, if Liverpool win, things couldget interesting..........
STFU, Man Ure sucks. There is still about 1000 metres to go. This is a 3800 m horse race. With Saimee riding Liverpool, expect a fight to the finish. I think the stewards will need to look at the photos to decide the winner of the Barclays Premier League.
Torres injured, Gerald injured, Liverpool is a lame horse for the rest of the race... The rider of the horse more interested in european race, will not concentrate on the local race much le.
Chelsea halfway change rider, is improving a bit, but the horse is still the same losing horse, won't be much diff...
Liverpool even if running on 2 legs, still can beat a 4 legged horse, especially one by the name Manchestor United.
Chelsea has a new jockey, he will need time to understand his mount. Although doing pretty well, I think he's somewhat lucky. He also has to keep an eye on the horse from Russia, the Russian Team. Chelsea could lose ground in this title race, I predict they will finish 3rd.
prediction:
Man U
Chelsea
Liverpool
Arsenal
I think now the question is not if Man Utd will win the title, but when.........

For your info, Liverpool didnt win the EPL for dunno how many freaking years and counting... I think u are a Kop fan, but u just be realistic, they really cannot win EPL if they continue to just rely on Gerrard and Torres. (2 guys, only)
You compare your beloved Liverpool to Man United, who can they rely on?
Name Giggs, Berba, CR, Roo, Tevez and so much more.
Liverpool leading earlier in the EPL is a great moment for fans to believe in winning the title, but as of now, the chance are gone.
Ok, you are right, even as a Pool fan I know the chance of them winning the BPL title is really low. But it's not over yet, anything can happen in football.
yeh jgho83 is pretty much there. In man u, look at the no. of match winners. Let me name a few, Tevez, Rooney, Scholes, Giggs, Ronaldo, Berbatov. Up and coming are the Silva brothers, anderson etc. Let's look at defence, they've got vidic and ferdinand, wow need i say more. And even reserve evans is being targeted by Real Madrid.
Liverpool match winners are gerrard, torres, kuyt...haha i think that's all.
Chelsea have anelka, drogba, lampard, essien, ballack and in defence they have terry and carvalho. If drogba and lampard play well, chelsea will win all the matches.
Arsenal have adebayor, eduardo, fabregas, not much. And they really suck. None are english except for theo walcott. I can't imagine if our sengkang or tampines rovers feature a team of all thais, indonesians, ang mos etc. then again nobody gives a shit about s-league.
