The last team to win the league3 down, 1 to go. Now the only realistic chance for a silverware is only the Champions League. Dumped out of Carling, FA Cup and now trailing 7 points off MU.
We needed to win tonight at all cost but only played well sporadically. Even Mighty Torres could not save us and we needed a lucky goal from Kuyt to save our blushes.
Tried as hard as they can but lack of depth in the squad finally took its toll. Deprived of SG and Xabi, the midfield was non existent and that contributed largely to the outcome.
Simply put it, we are not good enough to challenge for the title. We need Haile Gebreselassie's leg for the marathon run but sadly we have none. We relied too heavily on SG and Torres, it's becoming a cliche. Yes, we won some games without the duo but generally the the casts like Benayoun, Lucas, Babel, Riera and Dossena do not exactly set pulse racing.
Let's face it. The draws killed our hopes. We lost only once yet we are 7 points off MU.
It's water under the bridge now. No point harping on what could have been.
From now, it does not matter anymore if we are 2nd, 3rd or 4th as long we qualify for CL next season and we are safe in that department. It's Villa or Arsenal for the last spot.
So near yet so far.

You're too fast to throw-in your towel. There's still time. Do you know what 14 March is? It's when Liverpool go to Old Trafford and beat them again. Keep the faith.
I do wonder how fat the fat lady really is...
khan,
the fat lady is somewhat similar to Pidah or Losmah. hahahah
joe, if we were to win on March 14, they will still lead by 4, at the present rate they're not likely to lose that many game.
maybe they will stumble in CL but EPL is a foregone conclusion.
hehe awesome! Reminds me of a Queen song..
