But likewise they have United only being able to win at home to thanks for still being in it.

Actually, if you think about, Liverpool are the only team in the league that have really been on a role (since Kenny came in that is). Considering they were fighting to get out of the bottom part of the table for half the season.
Ok, I've not said anything different to that
Since the King returned, we've won the 2nd most amount of points; 1 ahead of Utd and 5 behind Chelsea.
Well Wigan have been consistently poor for a few years now?
What ever, lets face all you see is MOTD highlights, same with your team, we beat you this season and it will be great if we stay up thanks to those 3 points at 3 point lane.
If it wasnt for Wigans bad start to the season we wouldnt be in the bottom 3
Well yes, if any team had been consistently good home and away they would be above united!
For the title to go to chelsea they are going to have to win all their remaining games, and that includes doing something at OT that no other team has done this season.
Its a big ask and I dont think they can do it tbh; its going to need a blinder from Torres to make it a cert! (which is unlikely).
Strange that United were entirely comfortable up until the baffling decision to sub Anderson for Valencia and move Park into the middle.
Who then straight away lost the ball, then failed to track his man right up until he slotted the goal home.
Yes, the game needed changing up, but Park in the middle?
When has that ever worked?
And what had Park done over Anderson in the match other than do entirely nothing?
Strange decision is strange.

He cant get it right every time, last week Fergie was the man, this week you lot are questioning him.
Utd have been consistant away from home.......... consistantly average that is (much more likely to draw than to win or lose)
Considering they have an incredible home record so far (I dont know the stats, but if they end up with 18 wins and a draw I wonder even if Arsenal's invincibles had as good a record at home )
One point minimum required next weekend at home, and Utd should be safe - obviously 3 and its practically gaurenteed - if its down to gd I dont think Utd have any chance at all

I just hope we don't lose to Chelsea, then we're REALLY ****ed.
Football's a funny old game, it was only this time last month everyone had completely written off Chelsea's chances. Anything could happen.
I can only thank my lucky stars Chelsea has Newcastle and Everton after United - who have a much easier final two PL games against Blackburn and Blackpool, both of whom are one and two places off relegation.
I am completely expecting United to lose to Chelsea, they have a terrible record against the big four. Relying on United to beat Blackpool and Blackburn instead, while keeping the GD higher.

I wouldn't want to go into the final game needing a victory against Blackpool, especially as they could be fighting for survival. We should have had this wrapped up before the end of the season, we're so sloppy 
Terrible record against the big four .....over how long are you meaning? Obviously not just this season, otherwise you are just plain wrong
It also makes a huge difference considing its at OT - I dont think its that bad (considering before today we had beaten Arsenal 6 times and drawn once in the last 7 meetings according to the commentary)

Totally agree - although I dont think Blackburn away will be easy either (as they will be fighting for every point also)

If we play the same Blackburn side City did we should be alright, they were woeful!
The irony, I said the other week watch Arsenal beat Man U, its setup for a tense match between Chelsea now and look at the goal difference too 
Arsenal dropped too many points when really the should'nt have. Start and End of the seasons are always funky, West Brom escaped again too

I'm going to think outside of the box on this one Bazzy boy, and plump that he meant 'consistent' as the good old dictionary would mean it.
And I refer you too to Oxford's finest.
And before anyone mentions it, no I don't think of timber being exchanged in the United dressing room when insiders mention that the squad 'got stick' at half-time.

Or similarly they're playing two perfectly safe but unambitious mid-table sides while we're playing two relegation contenders...
