A Ballack double, a late disputed penalty, other penalties not given, a calamitous Carvalho error, Rooney and Vidic injured, Ronaldo left on the bench, Drogba arguing with team mates, two late Chelsea clearances off the line, United players in a spat with the ground staff well after full time…
What else would you want from the big match between the top two? Well there was Chelsea’s nice touch of holding up a shirt remembering Frank Lampard’s late mother after the first goal.
The pair are now level on points with United holding a far superior goal difference with two games left. What’s going to happen? Did Alex Ferguson think too much about the Barcelona game this week?
As Inter Milan, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich prepare to wrap up their domestic titles, at least the Premier League will go down to the wire.

its a shame to both manU and arsenal fans that a team like chelsea which no one gave any chance to get to this point can humilate a so called strong manU side at a crucial period of the premiership. i keep reading the so many hateful words levelled at chelsea and yet that same team keep their heads level and keep wininnig their matches. they may not be the most entertaining team but am amazed that with all the highly paid players in chelsea, they do not reduce themselves by insulting other players in the league. And for all of you that think Grant is not good enough, i wonder what are the basis of your judgement. if a man can take a team at the stage he took them and is now contending for two championships, what better yardstick is there to measure success. Are you all myopic to see these things. for your information, i was with arsenal but i here by declare in this forum that i will no longer support arsenal agin. i take my support and my family’s as well to the only true champions CHELSEA!!!. am now a BLUE supporter from now on. i wish chelsea the best and whatever happens at the end of this season, they will still earn my respect and admiration henceforth. THEY HAVE INDEED THE CHARACTER OF TRUE CHAMPIONS. BRAVO CHELSEA.
- Posted by palascoThe best Chelsea have played for some time! However, an impressive performance in the first half does not qualify the Blues to think they have done enough to beat United to the title. I think that over the season United have deserved it head and shoulders over anybody else. Arsenal have looked good for large parts but not quite good enough whilst Chelsea have just continued from where Jose Mourinho left them.
The last two games of the Premier League season are sure to make for interesting viewing!
- Posted by RichFor the outsiders like me, it’s a great result. This ensures that both teams Man-u and chelsea will have at least half a mind on the EPL while perhaps neglecting the Champions league muahahah!
That being said, it seems Ferguson is really desperate to win the CL, resting his top players in a key match and all. Sorry fergie, you’ll never make 3… and even if you do, you’re still a long way off 5 and potentially 6.
- Posted by Five TimesBallack has once again proved that he is a world class player, and Chelsea very much deserved to win the match watever others may say. ;-D
- Posted by PradChelsea were fantastic on the day, talk about giving 100% they gave more…And it goes to show, who the hell are Man Utd without Ronaldo when he eventually disappears to Barcelona or Real Madrid they’ll be nothing…if we don’t win the premiership this season I couldn’t care less because at least it shows the premiership for what it is. unpredicatable, exciting and the greatest league in the world
