I don't believe man u fans can claim that the Villa game was their best so far....the reason why i'm not worried about the 4 points is that we have 18 games left to play that's 54 pts up for grabs, clearly has the league ever been won in January???? As it stands you cannot say that a certain team has the best scoring/defensive record because the matches played are not the same.

If you look at McReggae's stats you will notice that its only in 2008/2009 season that Man Utd managed to win more games in the second half of the season than any other season.....Christiano Ronaldo underwent surgery at the begining of the season and came back towards the end of the year struggling from fitness but he still managed to miss out on the top scorer's award by a goal or two, he was an exceptional player.

2008-2009 season arsenal title ambitions came to an end against Birmingham after Eduardo's leg break, who btw was the star player then....that was the match that Gallas went crazy on the team....like i said nothing to do with the general performance of the team. Last seaso we lost 3 GAMES in late April without Cesc, Vermaelen, Van Persie, Gallas and several other players...that's why we finished 11 pts behind Chelsea. As most football pundits say, If Arsenal can stay Injury free towards the end of the season, then the title would be theirs to lose.

@Taz, it does not hurt to admit that United are getting the results. Chelsea fans admit that their team is currently in a rot, United fans admit at times we've been lucky to get the results, but the results are what matter most. But arsenal fans?? Just admit you guys are very inconsistent! It doesnt hurt.


Blackburn could be said to be the best, IMO. If 54 points are up for grabs, by all means Liverpool may win the league.


@Mwenza,, fundisha huyu kizungu tena. AT THE MOMENT, United have the best strike force in terms of goals scored. The reason why you keep coming short in your analysis is because, you just dont know how analysis are done.


All teams get injuries, that is why they invest in squads. All teams, at one point in time, miss their best players. The football pundits say what they say because Arsenal dont invest in their squad. If United, Chelsea and Arsenal could stay injury free all season, especially towards the end of the season, who do you think would be fighting it out for the title?

@Taz, you just got too many excuses for your team's performance, or lack of it. This past 6 years, it will not be recorded officially that Arsenal would have won the title were it not for the injuries. It will be recorded that Chelsea won 3 times, United won 3 times, and they deserved their wins, injury or no injury.

Habari ndio hiyo!!!

Its amazing how @TAZ keeps talking of injuries, injuries and more injuries as his excuses for mediocrity.

How has he conveniently forgotten that Man U last season, for over a month, played both Fletcher and Carrick as the main defenders. Does he realise what the effect of converting midfielders to defenders has on the team's midfield? How about the effect of playing a midfielder to the defence itself?

Isn't shocking that with all these shortcomings, Man U finished a single point adrift of the eventual winners.

Man U fans don't like talking of injuries because they realise that injuries are part of the modern game.

Huyu @TAZ haitaji Kizungu hapa. Anahitaji yale "mathafu" ya calculus ya @MaichBlack.

If at the moment a team having a game in hand has scored say 5 goals more than the nearest rival in terms of goals scored, how could failure to play the game in hand have affected that? The game in hand could only have exacerbated the statistics if everything else remained constant. So Man U have the best strike force at the moment!!

This is not rocket science.

TAZ.........We are not talking about goal difference. We are talking of the team with the best strike force in the league at the moment.

The team with the most goal scored thus far has scored 43 goals....and that team is ....you have guessed it correctly.....Man U!!

Hivyo ndivyo tunakuambia, sio mambo ya goal difference.
