Is the fat lady ready to sing at Old Trafford?


Liverpool's title hopes are dealt a severe blow as they are held to a 1-1 draw by Man City at Anfield.
Liverpool 1-1 Man City

Today was a bad result for Liverpool. They really needed to win, but could only draw at home instead.
Well, unless something completely unforeseen happens, it's starting to look like one of the easiest Premiership title achievements for Fergie & Manchester United. Say what you like about this United team, they have been consistent, and though it's hard to admit, they deserve to be labelled champions....again.

For the rest of the Premiership so-called "Big Four" - this season has been all rather disappointing, really:

  • Chelski's players revolted and "Big Phil" Scolari promptly got the boot.
  • Liverpool have stalled since Rafa's rant and have serious boardroom issues to resolve.

  • As for Arsenal? Unpredictable - one week losing to Stoke, but then beating Man Utd the week after. Wenger needs to give the team an overhaul, because some of these Gunners don't deserve to wear the red 'n white.

Meanwhile Aston Villa are looking a strong bet to end Arsenal's membership as one of the Premiership elite, and I'm not going to underestimate Everton either.

Still there's always next season, eh?
