At the moment, Man Utd appear to be going down with more of a whimper. They failed to beat Chelsea at three attempts this season, and were a long way off the pace come the end of the season.

I don't think Chelsea are invincible either, but any team in the world would do very well to win at Liverpool, Barcelona and Bayern Munich, so I don't take that as a very convincing arguement against them. The fact is they came through two of those European 2 legged ties as winners. They only lost 2 games in English competitions all season, took maximum points over Liverpool and United, not easily done by any team, and for my money, are leagues ahead of Man United at the moment. The only team I can see challenging them next year is Arsenal, who will have to be more consistent and defend better if they are to win back the title.

But in saying that, I'm no idiot, and would never write off Man United in a title chase until is mathematically impossible. So, we'll just have to see how the respond to a disappointing season, and if they've got that Dowie, bouncebackability!
