A pity those who reckoned Howard Webb would win it for United couldn't admit that he actually kept Chelsea in it. Anyway, it didn't change the result today for once. Thought Park was outrageous today especially in the first half and what more needs to be said about the legend that is Ryan Giggs? Sensational player.

Overall though I think the key has been the faster than anticipated development of Hernandez. It has meant United can play a hugher tempo than with Berbatov and it suits the team. Valencia is a beast and its no wonder the team as kicked on since he came back. I expect the job to be completed against Blackburn.

Agree with all of this. Valencia has made a big difference since coming back for Utd. Decision making can be poor but is very direct and a great turn of speed.Nailed on for CL final start.

Hernandez will be interseting to watch next season, think he has surprised even Ferguson the way he has went straight into the team this year.Either he is this good or he is just on an amazing run (read somewhere he went 2 years without scoring in his younger days).

For all the talk of Utds demise Fergie is really only looking at needing to bring in a goalkeeper and central midfielder for serious money in the summer. The 2 Da Silvas, Smalling, Hernanadez and Valencia have all their best years ahead of them and Giggs should be good for another year at least.

Just getitng a chance to read through the forum now. It had been mature, sensible posts (Bar the racism) until this one. Good man for not letting the side down.

I'll analyis Chelsea's performance (!!) the mora when I sober up, but United's was superb. Essentially the game was won by workrate in the first 20 minutes. PJS was on a different planet in terms of desire and passion, not to mention his passing.

The best team almost ALWAYS wins the league, and United after being so so all year, today produced a performance that showed that they were the best team this season, and credit to them.

2-1 flattered Chelsea...Man Utd, by far the better team on the day esp in the first half and the best team always wins the league.  Well done!  Roman really wants to buy Ryan Giggs for £50mill!

What I find amazing about Giggs is how he has reinvented himself.  In his prime, he was an unbelievable winger but not someone you ever would have though as being a playmaker in the middl, yet he somehow has evolved into that role.  He was unbelievable yesterday, looks really fit and sharp too.  His passing is great, especially the chips he plays forward, and the other key ball in his locker is the little dink pass he hits when ever there is an opposition player between himself and the man he aims to pass to.  Giggs seemed to have lost any pace he had about 4 or 5 years ago, but the past year or two he seems to have really rediscovered the acceleration, which was evident in the Chelsea Champions League games and again yesterday.  Giggs also put in alot of critical tackles yesterday too, as did PJS who was unbelievable.

Only one question left at this stage: when the moment comes, will all the Mancs logging on to Wikipedia to update the page for League title winners cause the intrawebs to implode?

I have to say think he is slightly being over hyped, great player dont get me wrong but there are elements to his game which are pretty average as well. And thats from a united fan.

Is there a worse corner taker in the EPL?  :D

Court case stuff there, Dave.  Never look to a professional footballer for moral guidance is pretty sound advice.

Well said NT. As always we'll have our disagreements but fair play for being so gracious. I thought new devils words were uncalled for and hopefully will be retracted.

Will this be a record low number of away wins for a title winning team?

I understand one of Liverpool's title wins had only 5 away wins.

It was actually a genuine question but sure I will let youse perform cyber fellatio of each other.

He's actually right. Liverpool only won five times away from home in 1977 and no one accuses that of being a crap Liverpool team
