That's how it stands at the moment, and that's how i reckon it's gonna be at the end of the season. I just can't see Man Utd throwing the title away. The only position that might change i reckon is Arsenal/Everton.
We have a HORRIBLE set of fixtures coming up in March though. Liverpool (A), Man Utd (A), and Everton (H) all in successive weeks! weeeeeeak!

Yeah, we seem to be doing better against the good teams though. It's weird!

Title race is officially done and dusted.
I cant believe that Rafa hasnt been sacked yet,defeat in the Champions League and then get rid.He has spent millions on mediocre players,Pool just dont have the quality in depth that Man U do.
United werent up to the usual standard last night but they still have four of five players who could win them a game,pool have two(Gerrard and Torres),thats the difference.
I think Chelsea will finish second.

He has spent millions on mediocre players?? Rafa doesn't have control over our signings! Sack Parry is what i say!

We shouldn't sack Rafa anyway. We're 10 points better off now than we were last season. Still in a good position in the champs. We shouldn't sack him!

I watched Newcastle v Everton today.

Kevin Nolan's challenge was horrendous. Disgraceful. :(

Newcastle didn't want to win, we played for a draw. Everton lacked cutting edge up front.

All in all, one of the worst games of football I've seen in a long, long time.

I only watched the 2nd half and it was really boring!

It really was. If I was an Everton fan I would be furious because I haven't seen Newcastle that clueless for a good few months. We had 1 chance and that was it.

Hmm.. Liverpool had a few chances and didn't take them :(

Oh sorry, Ryan Taylor went close with a free-kick and Jonas Gutierrez was clean thorugh but his shot was weak.

I didn't see what happened. Did he get challenged and his knee twisted or...?
