Well, it clearly affected our chances, but we're still only 6 points behind.

If United lose tomorrow, there's still a chance.

And I will not use the injuries as an excuse if we don't win the title. All I have said is that if any other top 4 team had our injury problems, they would not do any better.

Liverpool and Arsenal have had worse injury crisis' over the last few seasons and United haven't exactly been blessed with the rub of the green in that department either. This is Chelsea's first real taste of an injury crisis under Mourinho...

Yes, Man. Utd had injury problems the past two seasons, and Liverpool had problems too recently (can't remember when exactly). I remember saying last year that it's not just the quality of Chelsea's squad and Mourinho's managerial ability, it's the fact that they never suffer an injury crisis. Now that it's happened, we see that they're "human" after all.

I'm still thinking that Chelsea will win the league to be honest.

They may overtake them before the seasons over but I still think that Chelsea will get a second wind when they're defensive playes are all back

Earlier on I posted the equivalent list. It was something like:

1. Dudek, Agger, Carragher, Pennant, Gonzalez
2. Almunia, Toure, Gallas, Hleb, Rosicky
3. Kuschak (sp.), Rio, Vidic, Park, Giggs
4. Cudicini, Terry, Carvalho, Joe Cole, Robben

And have Carrick, Gilberto and Alonso suspended for a big match.

Heinze out for the whole season, Ole out for a season, Scholes half a season, Smith half a season.

Ruud, Giggs, Neville, Brown all missed loads of games.


Every bit as bad if not worse imo.

As I remember, during the first half of last season, Man U were missing Saha, Giggs, Neville, Brown, Keane and Heinze, and then missed Scholes from the end of December onwards, as they did Keane. That's two of their best, most experienced and most authoritative players, missing for half a season or more, and a whole bunch of other senior players.

And they did suffer as a result - they crashed out of Europe. But in the league they finished with 83 points, the same number as Barca from the same number of games...

We had Gonzalez, Garcia, Kewell, Sissoko and Zenden out today.

It's not exactly comparable this year but in 2004/2005 we had to use Neill Mellor as a first choice striker because it was so bad.

is that your squad for tomorrow do you think?

the year we won the champions league it was one of the worst injury crisis' in the clubs history.

you were just unlucky it happened to be with your three centre backs...

but perhaps jose should then explain why he only has three but has 15,000 central midfielders

No. I'm saying that would be the team we'd put out if we had the similar injures that Chelsea currently have.

But are Gonzalez, Garcia, Kewell, Sissoko and Zenden as important for Pool as Joe Cole (who would play if fit), Robben (who starts 75% of the games - so neither are really subs like SWP), Terry, Makelele and Carvalho are for Chelsea?

But this season Mourinho has favoured his power midfield over the 4-3-3.

Exactly, he was playing that formation even when Robben, SWP and Kalou were all fit.

@ parky/kas

When Robben was fit he was part of the 3. Sometimes Kalou would play as part of the 3 too, and SWP would get some time on the bench if he was a good boy.

If J Cole was fully fit, I'd expect it to be a 4-4-2, with Essien, Flumps, Robben and J Cole.

It's tradition for Liverpool fans to say this is the year, we are going to win it this season. Starting a lil early for next year though. As usual aint happening.

Arsenal will def be challengers though, and chelsea could be behind either right now, and still finish above them, so how any will catch them up i dont know

I don't think we're challengers for the title but I think we could maybe sneak second.

Either you or Chelsea will win enough games now to secure the title I reckon

I meant next season tweedle, This season of course not challengers

I voted yes and they will win the league

Nah i really think they have a great chance of overtaking Chelsea, why not? 5 points with a fair amount of games to go and as we now all know Chelsea aren't invincible!

Definately can takeover Chelsea and put a good run in can challenge for the title.

Hang on I don't think Roman would like that

You sure about that , he doesnt looks happy nowadays.

Man U will win the league, no doubt about that. If Chelsea continue to play the way they have been playing recently they might finish above Lierpool and Arsenal
