Default Worried about 'Boro !

As a utd fan i'm a bit worried about playing 'boro this weekend. What with Chelsea hot on our heels we can't afford a slip up and lets just say a large number of our 1st choice players won't be available. I'll be more comfortable once it gets closer to the end when Chelsea have Arse and us back to back.

i do hope you do slip up then were be same points as you guys but personally i think it would go like this...

1. you lose, Chelsea win...EXCELLENT!
2. you lose, but Chelsea will fuck it up

but in my honest opinion...i cant see you fucking it up

are you takin the piss ??

Man u are at home and arent gonna mess up agaianst an average at best boro with the form your in.

You have nothing to worry about and thats from a pool fan.

Also, if i remeber correctly. Chelsea have to go to the emirates so the title could be in the bag before you even play chelsea with you goal difference.

Its weird being a pool fan and not actually minding if man u win the title for 2 reasons,

1. i despise the way chelsea go about there business and the way their players constantly moan like girls about the slightest of things.

2. cant hide the fact man u are playing some stunning football and prob deserve it on that basis alone !

This is 'boro who we had to replay in the FA cup, and the difference after 180 minutes was a penalty and the second lag was at OT. Saha, Nev's, Vidic and possibly a few more like Rio,Oshea may not be ready.
Every team has a side which causes them problems, Arse have Bolton, Liverpool have had a few this season.
Also every time we've added pressure to Chelsea like Tuesday they answer back with a result like 4-1 against West Ham. Under pressure from a 3-point gap we folded against Pompey. If they were to close the gap although we'd be leading on Goal Difference the pressure would definately be on.

I was hoping Bolton would close in on Arse, making the Chelsea game a must win for Wenger but now they are quite comfortable in 4th qualifying for the CL next year. I'm not saying Arse will be a push over but if it was more urgent for Wenger to take something from Chelsea then a better game could have been on the cards. The way Arse have played i'd be suprised if chelsea didn't roll them over.

I'd rather it was more tied up before we travel to Stamford Bridge, 1-1 at OT earlier in the season could mean a 3 point drop.

We could spank 'boro 4-0 on current form but we're inconsistent. 2-1 Pompey and three days later 7-1 Roma.
I'm hoping the run of games Chelsea will have come the end of the season will have a dramatic effect on their fatigue, there's not much difference between UTD and Chelsea even Jose said the same so it could go either way.

For me the treble is an after-thought, wrapping up the league should be the priority. As far as i'm concerned the CL and FA Cup should come second. Stopping the quadruple will i think have some effect on the Liverpool/Chelsea CL semi, meaning they won't do the double either.

Ditto - I was there too and Boro didn't pose any problems whatsoever. They rank as one of the worst teams I've seen at Anfield this season.

But this is what i mean, 'boro should be a walk-over but they tend to be a team that year in year out cause us problems when they are destroyed by others.

Southgate will have his team playing deep and compact by shoving 11 players behind the ball and will play out for a draw.

thats fine, but in th league we have a very good record at old trafford plus, we can't be playing any worse at the moment!!! and when we go through a stage of playing crap we do usually and up getting a good result against a team that on paper should play us off the park.
1-1 is my prediction no doubt ronaldo will dive to win man u a penalty...again

Lol, well with 3 penalties against you this season you'd think that you'd learn not to hack our players down in the penalty box. And before its said Ronaldo dives one was against Saha and Woodgate himself said the last was a pen. Anyone who says Ronaldo is a diver needs to watch every minute he's played this year and see how many times he could have gone over, and probably would last season - without doubt the best player in the world at the moment. King diver has to go to Steven Gerrard this season!

I think i'm right in saying this is Chelsea's run-in....
Newcastle away tomorrow
Liverpool CL
Bolton
Liverpool Away CL
Arsenal Away
Utd
Last League game being Everton

So thats the top 3 within 10/11 days. I can't see them all being wins so either they drop some points in the league or go out of the CL.....

Im not counting my chickens just yet.Boro can be a bogey team for us.And the Reds might get a bit twitchy if it stays close after an hour or so.

I will only be happy if there is a six point lead at the top of the table at 6 o`clock tonight

Boro are a bit of a bogey team, what with the 4-1 game a while back plus the more recent fa cup games where they did well. United should take it at home though.

Chelski have Arsenal coming up and Everton, Bolton to play and everton are capable of a draw but we've seen how lucky they've been in the dieing minutes. Teams just cave in at the end once they start shooting and long balling it. And most teams waste their crosses, long balls and free kicks putting it too close to Cechs hands.

Oshea, Rio and Evra are ready, well certainly the first 2 are. Gary Neville is nearly there i hear and Vidic is about 2 weeks. Silvestre is useless anyway. Pure squad pollyfiller. That leaves Saha and park but then Sahas always out anyway and we've got Smith now. FA cup is sorted for a while now, 4 more premiership wins to the title and if the AC milan game goes well then its happy days.

When is the Liverpool game, Wednesday? I will be cheering my balls of for them that day. They have to dump them out. Hope Benitez grinds it down then batters them at Anfield, crowd as well give them lots of noise like United did against Roma, piss them off.

I cant believe someone wants to see a players legs get broken!!

How childish?? I dislike Drogba, but i wouldnt want to see him get him have both his legs broken!

He's also Chelsea's best player at the moment.

Ronaldo's penalty at OT wasnt a dive - It happened right in front of me and Woodgate did take him down.

However, the challenge at the end of the end of the game that resulted in the 'boro player getting sent off, that was reckless and could've injured Ronaldo. if a Utd player had've done that to a 'boro player, i'd be sat here saying the same thing.

Cant people appreciate players who dont play for their teams talents?

Henry was awesome, but his heart isnt in it at Arsenal anymore.
Gerrard is Liverpools best player
JT / Drogba at Chelsea are good players, moreso because Drogba is staying on his feet now..
Nolan at Bolton should be in the England team imo!!

There are plenty of others. players like these are helping to make our Premier League one of the best in the world..

Oh, and come on Southampton, lets get Leeds Relegated

Are you having a fucking Laugh mate.You really cannot be a United fan if you want Liverpool to beat Chelsea

Just because Chelsea have won a couple of titles for the last couple of years,you want them to go out against Liverpool in the Semi final of the European Cup

Liverpool are the enemy.I dont know what i would do if they won the it again.Especially if it was against United
