The Title Race

The premiership title race is now a three way battle. Manchester United are currently leading by one point and a game in hand from Liverpool and Chelsea. Liverpool are one point behind their rivals in second place and Chelsea are 4 points behind Man U and 3 points behind Liverpool in third position.

Manchester United have been dissapointing in recent weeks, being demolished by Liverpool 4-1 and then losing 2-0 against Fulham. Is the pressure getting to Sir Alex Feguson and his boys?

Liverpool are in fantastic form, they demolished Real Madrid in the Champions League over 2 legs, 5-0. Then they went on and beat Manchester United 4-1, and the following week, destoryed high flying Aston Villa 5-0. The player that has stood out for Liverpool over these weeks is the one and only Steven Gerrard. The only thing that can provide a stumbling block for Liverpools title challenge is the International matches, but can magician Rafael Benitez and his army of reds climb this barrier and continue their devastating form?

Chelsea have been in decent form. In the prem they have beat Aston Villa, Wigan, Portsmouth and Manchester City over the past month but then their fine form ended in thier last game when they were beat by Tottenham 1-0 thanks to a fine goal from Luka Modric. The stumbling blocks in Guus Hiddinks way are the points they are behind in the table and also the quite tough run in they have. Can Guus overcome these?

As a Liverpool fan, i hope that Rafa can outmaster all the other managers and win the Prem with Liverpool. They, (we i should say) have the qualities to win the league. Steven Gerrard, as quoted from French legend Zinezine Zidane, is (and i emphasise that is) the best player in the WORLD. He is better than Kaka and all the other great players...he is even better than Messi ! ........ Well in my eyes anyway.
