    They have 5 points out of their last 4 games and are playing poorly. They were 3-1 down at home to Sunderland in the 85th min of a game, in a title run in. And now they have arsenal away.

    If they have't technically imploded yet, they are sure as hell on the verge of it.

    OK OK wow wow wow............. hang on a second now.

    Ok so you have practically been having a laugh at my "in the balance" comment and yet, (and it's the funny bit) you come along and then talking about imploding, but not actually technically imploding just yet.

    You could not make this up!!!!

    WTF? :confused:

    I've already backed up my points around 3 times at this stage.

    City playing poorly, probably 5 points behind, fixture list favouring united as well as momentum being with them, and i even threw in the bookies odds to further emphasise.

    that word alone does not back up sweet FA

    How did I use that word alone? I clearly used it in conjunction with other points.

    At the start of the season you could say United will PROBABLY finish ahead of Liverpool because they have better players.

    yet in your world, that can't be used to back anything up because it has the word 'probably' in it.

    anyway, goodluck.

    Paddy Power would shorten the odds on United to stop people lumping on and also lengthening on City top get people on the actuion there.

    It is a barometer but not the barometer. The fact is United lose tonight (and it is possible) then the league is definitely 'in the balance'.

    United have on paper the easier run-in but United have also made hard work of some teams they would traditionally have rolled over at home.

    In favour of United, They have been really good away from hom this year as opposed last year.

    It's still very much in the balance. By the time City plays again, they could be 8 points behind or just 2 points behind with a game in hand depending on how United's next two matches goes. United have a spotty record at Ewood park over the years while their opponents on Sunday morning just beat Arse.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 501 ✭✭✭Adolf Hipster


    lol

    The league isn't 'in the balance'.

    I know its possible that City could still win it

    In the balance means it go either way, which you just admitted, it's a fairly simple expression, how do you not grasp it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,825 ✭✭✭Mikeyt086


    This is one of the most peculiar arguments ive ever read on boards.

    With a 2 point gap with 9 (8 for City) games to go... Yes, the league is still "in the balance".

    :confused:

    Those saying it are doing so cause they know it puts them in a win-wins situation.

    - we dont win the title and they are delighted

    - we win the title and we get 'told you so, im not a complete and utter mong'

    I didn't really read much of the above argument, seems silly, of course the league is still in the balance.

    Can't believe the amount of attention given to that guy, me included. It was quite evident from early on that he had no clue what he was talking about. God love him, been a **** season's viewing as far as he's concerned. And in fairness, if anyone knows what a team imploding looks like it's a Chelsea fan.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,116 ✭✭✭Professional Griefer


    Hes unbelievable.

    Always gives 100%, never see him complaining, has no problem tracking back, pulls magic from no where. Forget who said it last week, someone form Sky I think, but the job of playing right back playing behind him, must be one of the easiest jobs in the world. ****ing legend.

    De Gea has been awesome except for few games. Him, Valencia have been unreal in the last few games. Long may it continue.

    Re Valencia, I think he is the leading assist chart despite missing so many games. He is a machine. He does everything on the right flank, from fullback to winger.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,507 ✭✭✭Quandary


    We're lucky to have such a great squad of players. Considering the injuries we've had this season I think this will be Fergie's best ever league title - if we manage to go on to win it ofc!

    City are gonna feel very demoralized now going to the Emirates next week. Lets hope the Arsenal can take at least 2 points off them.

    Massive 3 points for us tonight.
