flitcroft101 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Real Madrid lost 2-3 to Zaragoza. Mourinho was brought to win titles, and all he won in Real Madrid are the almost worthless Copa del Rey and earned Real worse statistics than last season. That made my night, Real Sociedad San Sebastian beat Barcelona aswell Zaragoza are my favourite spanish team, i'm so glad they held Almeria last week and now beat Madrid... pretty much safe from relegation now Gabi & Uche were really impressive.

Seddo Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 f*ck yeah, title defense is still on, bitches. Now we just need Arsenal to do us a favour tomorrow. In fact, I'm feeling quite optimistic about Arsenal putting it past Man Utd. Haha, you've got no chance. There's no way Arsenal will beat the Mancs. (of course i hope i'm proved wrong though.) No puddle to help Torres score this week, maybe the ground staff at Stamford Bridge will have to purposely flood the ground each home game. Congrats on the title Der_Don, YNWA . Spurs may struggle to keep hold of that 5th place if they don't start picking up more points, i'm amazed Liverpool have found themselves anywhere near 5th after our start.

A J Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 fingers cross, but im not that bothered, europa is nothing special, i'd rather we focused on building our team in the summer, bring in some quality, like N'zogbia, and win the league, so the Mancs cant say haha we got 19, we'll be equal again. Im hoping Arsenal do us all a favour and beat them, but i highly doubt it, arsenal are pussies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vercetti27 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 don't want chelskii to retain the league but would love to put one over fergie today . then again if we win wenger will spout bollocks such as "we're closing the gap with united", or "we're onto something special", before probably losing to stoke . Then again if we win our next 3 games after we will have a miniscule chance..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Girish Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 More than putting one over Fergie, you should be worried by the fact that City are only 5 points behind with a game in hand. A loss today means you risk dropping to the fourth spot and having to go through the qualifying round of the CL. Now, I have absolutely no problem with that, but I don't want to see Man Utd. win today either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyMufc-Champs Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 It's definitely going to be tough but I think we will get by today. I wouldn't mind a draw but I would feel way more comfortable with a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pansy. Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Arsenal don't get good results against the better teams so you'll be fine, especially since Fabregas won't be playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mourinho was brought to win titles, and all he won in Real Madrid are the almost worthless Copa del Rey and earned Real worse statistics than last season. you are obviously not spanish, the copa del rey is highly regarded, obviously not as much as the champions league, which real are still in btw Spurs need to get rid of Gomes, way too unreliable Highly regarded, but winning it earns nothing but a spot in Europa League (or its qualification, I'm not sure).

Canoxa Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Since this will be, no doubt, a season to remember, I've bought this year's Porto jersey. Regarding Getafe... I'm speechless. It's not something I would call ridiculous, since the money-men have some right to demand such an imposition. It's just... sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd let you guys get 5th to be honest. The Europa League is sh*t. I agree and all those Sunday kick-offs are a nightmare. We got to the KO stages with a reserve/youth team and that was under Roy, can just easily use it again as a means of giving the youth a run and some experience at a 'competitive' level.

King Of Monra Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 YAAAY!!! It's not winning the league, but it's a start. If chelsea wins against manu next week, and if arsenal wins against stoke. It'll be manu 73. chelsea 73 and arsenal 70. and all 3 having played 36 games. So on paper, arsenal can still win it. But I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Killa Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) Wow. Man United leads the table on 73 pts and 3 games left. They can only (hypothetically) win on 82 pts. How long ago has someone won the Premier League on such few points? Edited May 2, 2011 by The Killa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd let you guys get 5th to be honest. The Europa League is sh*t. Haha what? I find it very odd that as soon as Liverpool got 5th place yesterday, the media started saying that the EL is sh*t and they don't wan't it anyway. First Souness was banging on about it and then MOTD would not stop as well. Being in Europe beats not being in Europe every time. It's as simple as that. Also not forgetting that for any team being in the Europe means that they can attract a higher calibre of players. Are you suggesting that being 6th/7th is better than being 5th?

How long ago has someone won the Premier League on such few points? Its been a while, i just checked and United won the league with 83 points in the 2002/03 season. A bloody long time ago. Since then 86 has been the lowest total in the 07/08 season and 90 or above for any other season. I have to say it's been a poor season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Zilcho Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 What next? Manchester City gets renamed to Team Abu Dhabi? I hope so! Seriously though, that Getafe/Dubai thing is a shambles. You've got to have little respect for the fans, club and football itself to do something so f*cking stupid and pointlessly destructive.

I would say now Arsenal's season Is over but well done for beating us, Arsenal played some good football and Wenger can take positives from that game. The only ones who can stop us winning our 19th League title Is Chelsea and I do fear Chelsea. They are desperate to retain their title so It Is going to be hard game next week at Old Trafford. I would definitely take a draw because that would put us 3 points ahead with three games to go but I would feel way better with a win. I got a feeling Arsenal are going to slip up against Stoke...

El Zilcho Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 If United can overcome Chelsea, then it'll just be Blackburn away and Blackpool at home. So I reckon that's pretty much a done deal. Prepare for Sky Sports to hype up the Utd vs Chelsea game to no end. U R B A N I T A S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prepare for Sky Sports to hype up the Utd vs Chelsea game to no end. Oh yes they will. Sky Sports do sometimes over hype games and they turn out to be a boring 0-0 draw. I think there will be a lot of goals scored next week at Old Trafford. Match of the season for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's arguably a better season because there is no one team dominating and other teams are beating the bigger names with more regularity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIKKS66 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Can't win, can you? First place Barcelona being 25 points ahead of third place Valencia apparently shows how weak La Liga is. A close Premier League season with so few points between the top 3 means it's been a "poor season"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
