    I can see it coming. We're either going to finish outside the top four, or 4th (behind Spurs) and then Chelsea will win the European Cup - I just can't trust us to win the last two games and seal things.

    Both his goals were absolute stunners, I was expecting Chelsea to get a goal in the 10 minutes extra time but that was such an absolute shocker, just, wow. I feel sorry that Ba still didn't get a goal but damn he came close and he tried and tried. What a match.

    smurfing Newcastle, congrats on the title United.
    Jesus Christ, DK. You're worse than me for your defeatist attitude.

    Newcastle are a top team but I reckon City will have too much quality over 90 minutes.

    I support a team that thought it was a good idea to buy Paul Dickov twice. I'm being worryingly optimistic about this if you keep that in mind.

    That goal was outstanding! The smurfing swerve of it! Some serious technique is involved there. It's good from a United point of view that Newcastle will be going for the fourth spot big time come next weekend. I honestly really can't see City slipping up with such momentum behind them and for what is at stake, but with Papiss, there is always hope. What a player, take a bow. I loved at the end of it you see Drogba applauding the goal.

    Its going to be a very tough match against City, regardless of Cisse's two scorchers the whole Newcastle team really did play well, when Tiote went down and got taken off I thought "that's it, they're going to get one here" but I was wrong. We held on, Cisse scored THAT. There's nothing that can describe that goal. I've watched it over and over and I get nothing I can think of that I can use to fittingly describe it. I'm in disbelief myself haha.

    Well, if City get the points at Newcastle, nobody can deny they deserve the PL title.

    In any season, the team that finishes top of the league deserves to win the title.

    That's what Juventus said.

    Say what you want about Paul Dickov, but if it wasn't for him you woudn't be in the position you're in now. Nowhere near, in fact. In 1999 he scored the most important goal in the history of your club. He'd be a legend if it was my club.

    Damn straight. You can talk about countless incidents throughout the season but over 38 games, no-one can say you don't deserve it. If City win the league then I'll be the first to congratulate them.

    I'll be cheering United on in both games on Sunday though!

    There's been 19 managerial changes in Serie A this year - blimey. Also, Juventus might still not win the league despite being unbeaten with two games left (they're one point above Milan).

    I hope Juve do it because they were such a dangerous team in the 90's that I'd like to see them back at the pinnacle once again. Amazing record this season.

    A lot has happened since I last posted and I can't be bothered to make a long post so:
    Gutted about the game
    Capello>Hodgson>Redknapp - so I'm mid way happy, thankfully no 'arry.
    Cisse's goal made my jaw drop to the floor, more of that on...hmmm, let's say Sunday please.
