Liverpool are producing a fantastic finish to their season, fair play to them. It would be quite the turnaround if they pipped Spurs to 5th.

what if it was slightly over instead of not and the lino isn't sure but doesn't make the decision then it's chelsea that's robbed because "he can't give it if he isn't sure". nonsense.

No such thing as "slightly over" it's like saying slightly pregnant........
I'm happy for Franky it evens up that one he was denied in the world cup, so the cosmic balance is maintained and alls right again.

slightly over in the sense that you can see it on a zoomed in still photo, but to the naked eye from the lino's position there is a possibility that some of the ball could be touching the line so you don't give it because you aren't sure. in this case or in the real case yesterday it's a toss up and complaining about the lino is useless because the only thing that can prevent incorrect decisions like that is technology.

Just realized that Spurs and their player of the year are all the way down in 6th.

planet of the apes has a whopping 7 goals and 1 assist in the league. truly a force to be reckoned with.

The number one player in world football today.

and we're like the opposite of that these days.

QPR not getting promoted after all? Hilarious that Neil Warnock is involved in this after what happened to him at Sheffield United and the Carlos Tevez affair.

hasnt actually been decided yet as far as i know

Arseblogger brought it up the other day, but I haven´t seen it discussed here.

A player in MLS, Brian Mullan, broke a player´s leg with a reckless challenge. Since it was a straight red he first received an automatic 1 game ban. After the MLS review board had looked at the incident properly they banned him for another 9 games, taking the total of banned games up to 10.

Firstly, they have a review board that looks at incidents afterwards, regardless if the ref has made a ruling or not.
Secondly, a 10 game ban for a reckless challenge might actually have an effect on players before they commit to stupid challenges.
Thirdly, this is exactly what the EPL needs IMO.

QPR have gotten away with just a fine. Not sure how exactly.

I've been out of the loop for a while. What's all this about QPR?

It looks like Nuri Sahin is heading for Real, by the way. That's a real shame. I'm not sure what they're gonna do with both Özil and Sahin, but they'll have a hell of a midfield next season.

He'll only be able to understudy Alonso in that team, maybe the odd game in place of Khedira.

It's a strange choice, especially when he could've picked between all the top clubs in Europe. Apparently he's got a buy-out clause worth £9 million in his contract.

Been looking that way for a while. I loved one of the lines from Klopp's reaction to the rumour

"There are a lot of players around in Germany who are good enough to play for Real Madrid. Probably not good enough for Barcelona, but certainly for Madrid."

Sahin's obviously worried about burn-out so fancies a couple of years sitting on the bench earning a fat pay check. Good luck to him.

stupid move by sahin. he should stay at dortmund and see how far they can go in the CL. he's going to ride the pine at madrid, play boring defensive football, and not get any better.

charlie adam, attaboy! hope blackpool can hold on.

FUCK

I hate that cheating fuck Bale but Adam is a cunt for that tackle. Nasty cunt he is, Waddle said "he's not that sort of player" but he's the most booked player in the league.

ugh thats awful. only allowed to do that to shawcross or pulis.

Lost count of how many promising players ruined by Real. And they still want to ruin more, why do they need another midfielder?

ManU (Chicarito) scores 30 seconds in..

Buy of the season Hernandez.

2-0 Utd, you must be delighted Qs.

and Vidic adds a second 23'..

ManUtd.. Champions again it seems

VDS just made a stellar save to keep it 2-0

it's like watching Arsenal 2ce in 1 day

lets just hope man city dont join the mix next year as real contenders. last thing we need is to struggle with liverpool and spurs for 4th place.

Well you know thats going to happen Kami.
It already has........

prepare for 10 years in the wilderness guys! the good thing is we are already 7 years in!

What a buy Hernandez has been.

He wouldn't be able to do what he does at United at Arsenal apparantly. Average player.

See how Ashley is getting isolated and merked by Valencia everytime?

That's what Clichy has to put up with almost every week and we also expect him to do the attacking job of his left winger.

Guess that's it then.
Vidic scored what was the winning goal.
He should not even have been playing.

Title is United's.

So can we say Chelsea's title last year was a bit of a fluke?

A title win in itself can never be a fluke in itself but it was a blip after United regrouped and even last season Chelsea scraped to the league win.

In 2005/06 that was Chelsea's day but they've been regularly second best since then. Clearly better than us but nowhere near the level they should be for a bunch of arrogant twats who act like they've always been these big dogs. Give me a break.

Hilarious how United haven't really been fazed by Chelsea's money but regrouped and went another level while we moaned back in 06 that Chelsea would go on and on while still losing to them regularly. Apparantly 2007 was a blip according to Patrick on A-M.

So this season is proof (if others weren't) that we should be dealing with both United and Chelsea standardly.

Yeah, they fluked 86 points and stumbled into a league trophy.

What the fuck are you on about?

Biggest supporter of United on an Arsenal forum goes to Tony. Never fails to big them up especially when they won something.

Fucking hell Chelsea was by far the best team last season and hammered teams for fun. Had it not been their mid season blip this season would be the game.
