That Everton game was our undoing... No excuses. Maybe this will shake up United for the better.

I wouldn't mind seeing SAF retiring, The Special One coming in, bringing CRon7 with him. United needs world-class, top-name players. Darren Fletcher, Tom Cleverley, and Michael Carrick ain't it.

 

so .. holy sh1t
city won the league

takes a day to sink in

 

My daughter was sick all day, so I didnt see any of the games, just the replay shows. Some of the footage of the City fans was epic, there were literally people in the crowd crying one minute, then jumping for joy the next.

To be honest if it aint Chelsea, I'm not that bothered who wins, but I must admit I felt happy for all the City fans yesterday.

Imagine if you were a die hard City fan your whole life, never seeing them win the League in 45 years, then to witness them do it in such incredible fashion. They will probably win the league again soon, but never in that fashion.

 

So Fergie says that City need another 100 years to get to where they are!

Sour grapes I say! Haha

 

City is jibba-jabbing like they're the greatest team of all time, and that this is just the tip of the iceberg that they're going to dominate for the infinite future. I've got no love for United, but clearly they've proven themselves over the long term as an organization, and pretty much all with SAF at the helm. I mean City barely won in extra time against a team they should have wiped the floor with, who was fighting to avoid relegation. Exciting? Yes. Dominating? Not really.

They had a great season, for sure, but they have a LOT to prove still. Congrats, they won an EPL title. I see their name a total of 2 times in the top 3 in the last 20 years - the same as recently relegated Blackburn Rovers. There's not a Premier League season United hasn't finished in the top 3, and more often won. Only time will tell if they're a team of United or Arsenal's consistent caliber, big wallet or not. Consistently finishing at or near the top is the only way to gain actual respect, and SAF is right that this takes years and years. Everyone says all season "you can't buy class". IMHO, they're proving that, even in victory.

City is like the kid who just won American idol, and talks about all the platinum albums they're going to have... Maybe they will be Carrie Underwood. More likely they'll be Taylor Hicks.

 

it has been a good season although not for chelsea

but im glad a lot of teams have stepped up their game

Newcastle and tottenham did well this season tehre has been some stiff competition, 38 rounds of awesome football

EPL FTW!

unlike the spanish league where only 2 team compete

 

"You must spread ....."

Just look at Tevez. Ridiculous.

 

Nicely said Evo, I think you're right about one thing. Arsenal and ManU are the two teams that have proven their long term quality the most in the EPL. With UEFAs financial fair play rules and all I wouldn't be surprised if in 10 years ManC and Chelsea are down to the middle of the table whereas Arsenal and ManU will be fighting for the title

 

//Huge rant about loosing but still being United-awesome!

Yeah. Then again, I'm trying to soak up as many games and titles we can get know while SAF is still in charge. Even if United win 20 consecutive EPL when he has retired, thing won't be the same without SAF. He's not even a legend, he's the legend in the football world. People talk about there not being another player like Messi, Ronaldo etc. There will never, ever, be another manager like SAF. We lost this year, and to be honest, I thought it would sting worse. City deserved to win - just look at their squad. Ridiculously good players. Still, SAF is the man. Whether you like it or not.

//End rant

Ludas - Arsenal has a history of great players.

 

Well said. They are a long way from being in the same league as United, but it's still interesting to see someone else making some noise

That being said, here's Tevez at the parade:
