Mancini, when he was a player himself, was kind of a wildchild and an individualist. He openly stated that as a coach in City he wants to make the team a mix of individualists and strong characters because he thinks it will be a good combination.
Looking at City's performance the last two months or so, his original plan has obviously failed. The strong characters he has built the team upon just seems to grow further and further apart instead of the other way around. And Balotelli is definitely out of control, I don't see which team would want to buy him. If even Mourinho can't control him, noone can. I think Mancini will get sacked and rightly so.

This year was Citeh's best chance to win a title but it's all imploded in internal strife and egos (read tevez and balotelli). United had one of their weakest editions in recent memory yet an unflinching team spirit and instilled ethos has them with one hand on the trophy. One could argue this would be their sweeetest title yet...they will retool over the summer with quality signings and not leave so much to chance next year.
Even better is seeing the scousers 36 points behind
UNITED

ManU has a better team, they know how to win the PL and they don't accept ego's in their team.
And Arsenal, Fvck Yeah!!
Balotelli is an idiot, I don't know whats wrong with the guy but his IQ is obviously below average.
I LOL'd at this

That's pretty much how I play FIFA 12... break through the defense and then blast it into the stands
Like most of Arsenal, I haven't mastered finesse shots yet. Speaking of which, did anyone see the NY Red Bulls highlights? Henry has a touch in front of goal like no other, and he's still got it.

Tottenham just lost and Newcastle won their game today, so they are now tied. If Chelsea wins today by a 2 goal margin, then we move into 4th, but in a 3 way tie for 4th place.
What a major meltdown Tottenham are going through right now. Having a bad run of form in the middle of the season, or getting off to a slow start cant be half as frustrating as seeing your team go into meltdown mode when it really counts.

Hahaha, thanks.
If I'm honest I'll consider us extremely lucky if we get in. We have done nothing this season that shows me that we are part of the Premiere League elite. It will be a bummer if we arent in it, but I'll also be looking forward to what we do in the summer transfer market, and then the 12-13 season.

I'm crossing my fingers that Chelsea gets a spot in the CL next season. And also I hope Arsenal can take this chance and move on to a 5 point lead by winning against Wolves on wednesday. Nothing better than seeing Tottenham on a losing streak
