    Bah! All this talk about Man U and people being afraid? Arsenal hasn't played well since the first half of the Villa game six weeks ago and are level on points with the Mancs. That's a pretty good achievement considering how hot Ronaldo has been and Arsenal have been without RVP since October. If I was a Red Devil I'd be praying for the Gunners to beat AC Milan.

    That was amazingly beautiful soccer and complete domination. It really could have easily been 12-0 if Giiven didn't make some of those saves...I wanted Rooney to score so bad, that would have capped off a perfect game.

    Go Red Devils!

    And we've been without our best central midfielder since October and Rooney hasn't even got a decent run in the team. Saturday was the first time we've played up to our potential all season. We've been in first gear for the first half of the season and are still on level points with your lot, even after your start that produced a media wankfest. I'd say that's a pretty good achievement. As I've said in the past, you're not going to win the title unless you vastly improve your form away from London.

    The table after "Grand Slam Sunday:"

    1. Man United 73
    2. Chelsea 68
    3. Arsenal 67

    Repeat champions?

    I'm a Manchester United supporter too, but can't we agree to not use self-inclusive pronouns at least unless we're on the same continent as the teams we're rooting for?

    Why is that neccessary? I never knew you had to currently be on the same continent as the team you root for before you could use such pronouns in a statement.

    Its been a fantastic day of matches.
    Les voyeurs get knocked down, united opens the lead and those fake chelski posers get a little confidence boost before we knock them back down.
    fantastic.

    So only real supporters live on the same continent as their teams? Give me a break.

    I wouldn't call Chelsea posers. I've thought they were the real threat to our title hopes all season.

    I thought the bolded 'at least' would indicate that it's rather ridiculous to include yourself as part of the team any time. If you can drink beer during the game, you're really not a part of the team, unless you're George Best. I'm splitting hairs though. Glad to see Manchester win today, let's hope they keep up the form against Roma.

    I'll call them posers. Arsenal in my view were the real threat, I don't fear Chelski with Grant at the helm.
    Actually, both those teams are posers. They both knew we would ascend to top spot and we ain't going nowhere.

    And Arsenal's season is over.

    4 games to play, but I'm still worried about Chelsea. The game at Stamford Bridge will be HUGE.

    Huge result for Man United today as Chelsea draw at home to Wigan. That means we now have a 5 point lead with 4 games to play.

    How can I watch these games if I don't have Fox Soccer Channel? I've ran across some games on ESPN2 at like 3 in the morning and have been watching those but there haven't been any.

    I tried to tell you Chelsea were the true threat. Level on points with two games to play after losing at the Bridge.
