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.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.
As long a Spurs (more chance of slippin Christina Aguilera one) or Man-Yoo dont win, im happier.
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.
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
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
So we can agree it utd then?

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.
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
way to jinx it.
started watching and wigan look terrible
