Instead of participating in playground banter with typical cocky Utd fans and deluded Gooners I'm off for a few ale now!

I'll be there boxing day against Reading at the bridge. Will you be at Utd's game against Wigan Googzie? Or are you a plastic?

chelsea need to buck up their ideas if they think that performances like yesterday will win them the champions league or premiership, only liverpool are that jammy!!! and i have no shame in admitting us reds have had sum very fortunate results ourselves over the past 2 seasons, comebacks in all competitions ect,but we dont claim to be the almighty as jose seems to believe u r. if chelsea are this big super power in football then being 2 - 0 up against wigan, you should b able to remove some of your big names for a break and let younger guns have a run, not be back peddling looking for a late snatch & grab winner.......

Chelsea, mourinho and abramovich don't deserve any success, ruining the youth system in out country. Take SWP or Glen Johnson for example, two bright prospects who have flopped. Scott Parker was lucky to leave and get a chance at newcastle.

So much sour grapes. Man U and Ferguson have had their knockers over the years, Wenger and Arsenal too. Even the great Shankly and Paisley had them too yet they were Englands most succesful side - sorry United. OK a couple of late goals but teams play a full 90 minutes guys, you take your foot off the pedal and you get burned. How many late goals have United, Arsenal and Liverpool scored over the years to win a match? Also how many times have we hit the woodwork during recent matches, 4 against Arsenal, 2 against Everton 1 against Wigan. If they'd gone in we'd have won comfortably before the 90th minute. The sign of a truely great side is to win when you're not playing well, and to make positive substitutions at critical moments in the game. Even Ferguson has said this. So turn you're sour grapes into wine and enjoy the festive season, but be prepared for Chelsea to win a 3rd successive championship - ha ha.
