remember chelsea scored goals for fun for first few matches before the "unpredictable" happens? we are behind Chelsea by 7-8 points quite sometime ago (thanks to their superb form and our poor away form) but look at where they are now..
our position now are no better than them, coupled with few tough games coming in .Those so-called small team are no pushover. LOOK at what Wigan and Fulham done to Liverpool and Chelsea respectively, and what Wolves done to us.
Couple with our own fixture congestion problem, we MIGHT end up same fate as what Chelsea had faced before. THose fringe players definitely need to step up now to ease up first XI burden. can see that we too dependant on Scholes, Giggs and Nani to provide assist and create chances.
of coz there is the unpredictable factor, juz like greece winning euro 2004. no1 would have predicted tat. same as chelsea on run of super low form. but miracle doesnt happen tat often. lets say we end up same fate as chelsea, but ars or mc oso can have tat fate too.
i totally agree tat so-called small teams rnt pushover. of coz the same ting can happen to us but frm the way u guys r saying is tat tis team will do more dmg to us compare to ars.
we might be too dependant on scholes, giggs, nani but the same tings goes for ars, they r also very dependent on a few players n they also have fixture congestion problem. somemore they still have the all important trophy drought match coming.
frm what i can see those FACTORS r equal to both us n ars or even mc but the upper hand of pt advantage, player n manager experiences, mentality toughness have win us the title non disrespect to ars or mc.
