I dunno, it'd be a close call between Fergie and Wenger, they're both as bad as each other. Though, I'd say Wenger is slightly worse, he gets closer to getting himself into all-out touchline brawls with other managers.

Re: With just 5 games remaining, who will be crowned Barclays Premier League champion
At liverpool We lost Agger pretty early which has been a huge blow. Hyppia is a great player but hes not fast enough and on a lot of occasions he`s been caught out by attacking players.
Wenger made a comment the other day about how without the injuries you`d still be top. That might be true but its the same for all teams. Also he said he didnt expect to be without VP and ROsicky for large parts of the season. He signed the players and sees them train I`m sure he`s aware that they are made of the same stuff as darren anderton and rob jones.

That maybe so by neither of those, although good footballers, arent in the same class as RvP or Rosicky.
As long a Spurs (more chance of slippin Christina Aguilera one) or Man-Yoo dont win, im happier.

Re: With just 5 games remaining, who will be crowned Barclays Premier League champion
As a Utd fan I would really like to see them win, but I'm a little scared at the moment as it seems Fergie really wants the CL to go with the one in '99 and I can see him trying to stretch the squad, especially without Vidic and now Rio possibly out for a week of so.
But this could also be seen the other way as with both centre defenders out he might try and go even more attacking to keep the ball away from the back.
All in all this will make for one of the best PL run ins that I can remember for a long while, and the games between Man Utd Arsenal and Chelsea Man Utd being rather massive for all involved.

Its a different position though.
As I said earlier MAnure without Vidic look a lot weaker at the back. Liverpool without agger had similar problems.
RVP and Rosicky are attacking players. They are also both pretty injury prone players. NOt doubting their skills at all.

Re: With just 5 games remaining, who will be crowned Barclays Premier League champion
With Arsenal out of the champions league, maybe they'll now make one last ditch charge for the premiership. They won't have the hassle of playing more games and travelling, they can focus their attention now.
I still think it'll be Man Utd or Chelsea, but I wouldn't rule out Arsenal. If Arsenal can beat Man Utd this weekend, they'll be right back in it.
I totally agree with Mallet:

Blimey its like deciding how to die - electrocution, electrocution and firing squad or electrocution, firing squad and man-eating whitebait :confused:
As a boring-as-paint-drying-Hammers fan my dream would be to once again scupper Taggart's title chances as we did when Blackburn took the title off them, however, going by our performances lately I predict a 6-0 thumping and sadly feel it will all be over by the time we get to play them. Still ordered my tickets today regardless..........

lol a hammers fan with a sense of humour :)
The next few matches for United are going to be hard. Not only for them but for me as well as I'm trying to stop smoking and biting my nails at the same time.
Utd do appear to the none man utd fans to have an issue with defence atm in regards to injuries. However, I have faith in the players we have there at the moment. I can see Wes Brown and Piqué being in the central roles with Evra and O'Shea on the sides respectively.
Even if teams get a goal against us I can't see us not getting 2 or 3 or even 4 at the moment the way we're playing attacking football. Yes - 'boro was a slip-up but you know Fergie and his 'hair-dryer' would soon sought all that out :)

Lee, being a season ticket holder and watching the drivel we've been playing lately if I had no sense of humour I'd be slitting my wrists. Good to see the (God Bless) Pards todo with Wenger at the top of the page, remeber that moment vividly :mrgreen:

So we can agree it utd then? :D

Re: With just 5 games remaining, who will be crowned Barclays Premier League champion
Arsenal are definitely out of it, but Chelsea are still right in the running. :)
Chelsea vs Man Utd, that'll be a huge game. If Utd win against Blackburn and Chelsea, they'll be crowned champions at Stamford Bridge - Chelsea won't want that!
If Chelsea beat Wigan tonight, and Man Utd next week, they'll be joint top.... still all to play for, but you've got to favour Utd cause of their form.

Re: With just 5 games remaining, who will be crowned Barclays Premier League champion
Watching Chelsea vs Wigan now. So far its 0-0 and Wigan are not playing too badly. I am hoping Bruce can do us a favour :)
