5 games left and with United only drawing at Boro both Chelsea and Arsenal have hope.

United have to play both of their rivals in the run in - do they have the strength of character to see it through?

I have voted!.
Chelsea have left it a little too late. Arsenal have vanished in sea of mediocre performances.

Before the season started I tipped United to win the league and I have seen nothing that will make me change my mind. It pains me, a City fan, to tip our neighbours but that is where my vote has been cast.  Angry

That won't stop me from hoping that they lose everygame between now and May and least there is the small consolation of taking 6 points from the Champions elect.

As much as it pains me to say it (as a Liverpool fan) Ronaldo is too good at the moment. Man U will win again.

Sorry but it would have to be United.  You know what will happen now.  They will kick Roma's asses all across the pitch on Wednesday and then demolish whoever they are playing at the weekend.  It will be 0 - 0  until the last 10 minutes and like United always seem to do is spank about 5 into the net during extra time.  Ok, I exaggerate but you know what I mean.

United have historically been fortunate in the latter part of important games but how long will this type of luck last. Though I do see them going through to the next round, I consider it a difficult call to figure out the eventual winner.

They play Arsenal this weekend which will be interesting as the Gunners will be smarting after last nights defeat. A win at OT for them would re-open the title race. Especially as United have to go to Chelsea.
Even a draw at OT would benefit the Londoners.

It is good that it remains a little open as to outcome. Provides the fans with some hope.

Thanks to Emile Heskey the exciting finish to the Premiership has now ended. A win for Chelsea last night would have kept things open. United would have to lose twice and I dont see that happening.

According to Avram Grant they still have a chance. But it will take some luck and results going their favour.
