Next year, we might not be able to get away with our legendarily slow starts in the premier league: This year results in big games in the first half of the season werent good enough, and we have had bad patches.

Chelsea will invest heavily this summer after a couple of summers out of the market (hopefully the paper talk is right and they'll be stupid enough to splash cash on adebayor).
Arsenal are highly likely to have a midfield featuring rosicky, arshavin, fabregas and Alonso from Liverpool.
Then onto Liverpool - Rafa is sifting out the crap and likely to spend it on some world class players (frankly why he didnt swoop for David Villa i'll never know, maybe he will this summer) like Silva.

It will not be the cakewalk we have had this year where our rivals have given us very early christmas presents!

That said we have the quality in depth we need - however i STRONGLY believe that we MUST keep Tevez. Benzema might be getting touted but he has oinly proven himself to be skilful against French defences (which are RUBBISH).

Just wondering who you think should replace Sir Alex when he retires and when do you think he should retire (if ever)?

Rafael Benitez has refused to concede the Barclays Premier League title to Manchester United and called on Arsenal to prove they are better than their recent results.

"If they do that, hopefully it will give us our chance the following day.

"What ever happens, I am really pleased that we are in this position at the end of the season. But I am certainly not giving up on the title, we must always be positive.

"Arsenal will put up a fight, they are a good team with players of quality. And because of the results they have had in the last few games, they have to prove something.

"Arsene Wenger is winner, and his players are too. You cannot lose in the way they have done in their last few games and not want to try to do their best."

Was Patrice taking the P*** out of RAFA?

Man of the match anyone? Thought I would start our own. The BBC poll shows Tevez as man of the match at the moment even though he didn't play the majority of it! That really does just go to show how much we love him!!! Fantastic game from start to finish. Was amazed by how much of a hard time Wigan gave us, though I was very glad that we pulled through.

Roll on Arsenal!!!
