Ugh, tis true.

Richard "cock" Keys is already out on his "that's why it's the best league in the world" quest.

Not as bad as Gray telling as that Rooney's header "wasn't easy".

4 horse race anyone?

Still is a 2 horse race

Well done Arsenal.

I actually think a draw would of been a fair result but I guess I'm going to be in a minority.

Shout out to Evra, Carrick and Vidic who were all quality. Everyone else doesn't deserve more than a 5.

Don't think it was deserved. Just went far to defensive when we scored. taking ronaldo off for heinze is saying we will hold on for a draw what the hell is that about, we want to win the game ffs. the first goal ridiculous how they didnt get the ball. ah fucking so annoyed at throwing that away like that. the ref is shit anyway

Worst case scenario = 3 pts lead

Not bad result = 6 pts lead

Good result = 7 pts lead

Great result = 9 pts lead


Chelsea still have to play Arsenal away and i think Arsenal will beat Chelsea.

I didn't see too much of the game, as I was doing some cleaning, ironing and then helped the people in the flat downstairs plant some flowers in the garden, but man, silly challenge from Gary Neville; very lucky not to give a penalty away.

Was surprised that Vidic and Rio decided to pass the ball between them with Adebayor and Henry lurking, no surprise they gave away a corner, although Vidic is a very good player so I take it he knows what he's doing. Rio cost United the defeat at the end. Man, what's up with this player?

Fabregas was Arsenal's main man in that game he kept everything tight in midfield and was there most creative player easy......

A draw maybe would have been fairer although in truth Man Utd only really had the one chance. We were as poor as you for most the game.

I thought Vidic and Carrick were quality but Evra?

2-1 to the ARSENAL!!!!!!!!!


I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!!!!

woohoo!!!!!!!

Clichy = solid!

Cashley we don't need u anymore, we've got someone better

Ronaldo choked again against eboue as i predicted.

Hahaha, sucks for Man. Utd.

Yep, thought he was decent.

Anyone see what Henry did as he was celebrating the equaliser ?

Can't be totally sure but it looks like he said something to G.Neville.

Whatever you think of Neville (and he can be a cunt) that is such a no-no [shakes head in disgust]

United should never play defensive football against top teams....

Henry MOTM? This beats Gerrard MOTM

Cesc fabulosa was superb in the second half

RVP MOTM.

Not bad for a 19 year old, he was especially impressive for our equaliser, thats how he needs to improve, become more aggresive and more determined

Evra provided an amazing cross and did well imo.

Please tell fergie, it's just not our way. When he took Ronaldo off, i thought oh dear, sends out all the wrong messages.
