Title Chase

Congratulations to Manchester United for clinching the Premiership title. With 2 more games to go, Manchester United was crowned the league champions when Chelsea drew Arsenal 1-1 at the Emirates Stadium.



I truly believe that Man Utd deserves the title and it's just matter of time that they would got it. They had a great start to the season which I truly believe made them the champions now. Sir Alex Ferguson is an experienced manager and no doubt, he used his experience well. Bringing out the best from his players and the ability to make sure the team grinding results consistently just shows how great this manager is.

The table clearly shows which team is the best and for this season, Manchester United is the one standing high on top from the rest and have beaten the streak of Chelsea's 2 championships in a row. They managed to win some games when they didn't play well and of course, Lady Luck's with them the whole season.

When they slipped, Chelsea slipped as well. However, when Chelsea fell, they didn't. That's the difference between the second place and the first. Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney, Paul Scholes, Ryan Giggs are the main players who brought them glory this year. Of course, the partnership of Vidic and Ferdinard, and reliable Van Der Saar also has helped the team plenty in their defence. These players are probably playing their best football with youth and experience in the side. Ferguson is just so intelligent to make full use of this advantage.

The most important factor of Man Utd's title glory is still the man who guided all these players, applied the perfect tactics and able to outsmart his opponents. He's none other than Sir Alex Ferguson. I do look up to him as a manager. All these years, in spite of bumpers, he was strong enough to recover from it and showed the world that despite his age, he still meant business.

Despite the fact that I'm a Liverpool fan, I do salute you, Sir Alex Ferguson and once again, congrats on the title win.



Jose Mourinho. I truly thinks that Chelsea have only themselves to blame for losing the chase of the Premiership title. Given the chance to close up the gap from the top, they slipped. It's pretty frustrating to see Chelsea was given several opportunities throughout the season to cut down on Manchester United's lead and sadly, they failed.

Yes, they have many injuries throughout the season. Petr Cech, Joe Cole, John Terry. However, a big and expensive squad like Chelsea should have the players to cover and do the job for them. Of course, you may argue, these players are not easy to replaced. However, there were several occasions they could capitalise on Man Utd's slips which they didn't. They could only look at themselves and wonder.

Jose Mourinho is a good coach, no doubt. But, his arrogance and sore-loser spirit is getting into him. Loves to play mind games and gave so many excuses when his team lost. Blames the media, the FA , referee and everyone in the world, but not himself. He has a world class team and he's responsible for his team's results. When a team wins, credit will goes to the manager. When a team loses, the manager have to be the one blamed. That's football.



Chelsea is a great team with many world class players. They are all self-motivated and in terms of quality, they are one of the best in the world. Sadly, I feel that complacency and arrogance did creep into their players' mind and play. They still thought that they could win everything and at this very moment, they are only left with the FA Cup and a League Cup which they won earlier in the season.

Jose Mourinho, I do not hope to see you being sacked in the summer. I just hope that you would speak the right things at the right time.
