Can't imagine Arsenal or Spurs will be particularly impressed with the line-up United have named today.

I thought it was pretty clear even though the commentator kept talking about Anichebe, it was Distin who was pushing Carra in the back. Anichebe got a yellow for grabbing the ref's arm when protesting.

Not the worst side that could have been named by a long way tbf. Still more than capable of seeing off Chelsea. More concerned about whether Utd will actually be up for the game tbh. Though it's rare Fergie would pass up the chance to get one over on Chelsea/Rafa, so not unduly worried at this stage.

Not second string, sure, but 4-5 players short of full strength IMO. Combined with the inevitable - if slight - drop in intensity from a side that knows it doesn't need to win and you'd be tempted to call Chelsea marginal favourites.

Still hope we stuff them, obviously.

Honestly, footballers re so dense at times, why laugh right in front of the camera. Good luck getting another decision in your favour next year Sideshow.

This afternoon's games were a great advertisement for cricket. We've been dire against Chelsea for as long as I can remember.

He was laughing at some people in the crowd who were laughing at his misfortune.

Anyway Newport County are back in the League next season which means another fairly short trip.

It is already out of your hands. If Tottenham win all their games they finish above you. If Chelsea lose to Tottenham and win the others they finish above you.

You guys need a Chelsea win or a draw.

Yeah, could still see Spurs bottling it against Stoke though. Villa might give Chelsea a good game too.

Arsenal's remaining fixtures look a bit dodgy all of a sudden. Wigan at home should be a banker, but it should have been last season too, plus Wigan are on the resurgence now.... Can see some grim, tension-filled afternoons in prospect over the next fortnight.

That said, I think if Chelsea beat Spurs it's as good as Arsenal's. Just a shame Saints couldn't have held on a few more minutes yesterday really.
