I think its pretty simple
If United fail to beat Arsenal at Highbury, its over. |

It will be out of reach in two games. I know United so I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt but you have to be realistic. I say two games because if the gap is closed, both Chelsea and Man U have to play Arsenal and that could blow it wide open. If it's 9 points still by then, Arsenal would need to lose both and that's some challenge.

Chelsea don't have to play Arsenal, we play you on the second to last game of the season though.

Honestly, what the hell is Ferguson playing at, if you are 7 points behind the leaders at this stage in the season, you really should'nt be resting vital players. I understand that playing in europe takes a toll but for the wage these players get, i would play like four games a week and not complain. You would think Fergie would learn as this is like the third/forth time that resting players against so called "weaker" sides has blown up in his face.
Alex Ferguson is a fantastic manager and will forever be a legend within the english game but maybe, just maybe its time for a new face in the hotseat at United With that said, I would like to point out that I am IN NO WAY ruling United out of the title race, doing that would just be foolish |

Well that was a bit of an anti-climax
![]() Having said that...wooooo out of the relegation zone ![]() Wondering if anybody out there has an opinion on the theory that RvN was dropped for making his comments about United missing Beckham in midweek? It sounds utterly ridiculous *but*...well, I wouldn't 100% put it past Ferguson ![]() |

Can't people people are really saying Ferguson should quit. If I have learnt anything it's NEVER doubt Ferguson. I can't understand why Giggs and Van Nistelrooy never started either but I still don't doubt him. Sometimes you have to gamble and this one never paid off. I was more concerned about not playing Howard in all honesty.

Frank McLintock said on Soccer Saturday "his source" told him Beckham to Chelsea in the summer is a done deal. Take that for all it's worth.

Real Madrid would lose millions in merchandise revenue, as well as a player who is quite possibly playing the best football of his life right now. Its gotta be something unbelivably stupid, like, 60-70 million to sign him, which if you think about it, is possible, because that would wipe Madrid's debts |

WTF, we can't even beat Leeds
Baros was quality, Kewell showed how good he can be, we played so well, but couldn't win. Owen, Murphy and Finnan were sh>ite IMO. Owen just doesn't have it anymore at all, he doesn't look interested, and he doesn't know how to pass a ball. Murphy and Finnan kept giving the ball away and didn't offer anything going forward. |

Now, thats why I haven't said anything about it, because, Becks was playing for Real Madrid the night we beat Lazio, so he couldn't have been there. So I assumed the whole thing was BS, maybe not though. |

If Beckham goes to Chelsea, Sven will more than likely follow IMO. Cant believe Sven's comments in the Paper today, surely he should be focusing on Euro 2004 and not on his next employer.
Great game today between Liverpool and Leeds, was glad to see Viduka get on the score sheet. He's been the subject of public arguements (club v Country) recently and he deserved the goal today, him and Smith are working like troopers to try and keep the club up so good on them for the point today. As for Owen, he certainly dont look as sharp as he can be but he will find his form again soon, even if its at another club. |

We're fu>cked, but Ronaldo is looking better and better. If he can learn to cross a bit better and get more swerve on the ball, he'll be the man

I've gotta agree, Ronaldo has started to ditch his "tricks" and become more of an out and out winger, he's got some real pace (even if he runs like a ponce) and if he learns to put the ball into the box, rather than mess around with it, he can be a great asset
He'll never be a Beckham though |

no no, he needs to keep the tricks. he does great with them half the time, and it's great to watch. It's just his crossing and finishing looks a bit suspect to me, he never gets much of a swerve or height on it, if he can do that and keep the tricks, but learn to pass at the right moment, he's gonna be one of the best players in the world.

Ronaldo also needs to learn when to drop and when to stay on his feet, certain instances call for a little dive here and there but he seems hit the deck far too much. Other than that he's class.
