Every website i go to, every forum and every blog, the same thing is being said. Chelsea look to challenge/Chelsea could win it/Chelsea look strong blah blah blah

Um.........wat? scratch

Their signings haven't exactly been shit-your-pants spectacular and their remaining team isn't anything to write home to mum about, either. Yet most believe the top three will comprise of both Mancs and the Chavs (in no particular order) scratch

So what makes Chelsea such big shots to challenge the Mancs? Cos, personally, i don't see it

Because many people get hard-ons for expensive young players, even though they haven't done anything to deserve those kind of expectations yet

The title is between city and United. The rest is up for grabs. Arsenal will still come third.

Let us not forget Tottenham and their strike force of Defoe :bow:

I smell a sig bet :coffee:

by Swanhends Fri Aug 17, 2012 1:26 am

I have a sigbet with RG but I don't remember what it was lol

Is that thread still around?

by Tomwin Lannister Fri Aug 17, 2012 1:29 am

If I had to bet I would go for

1.United
2.City
3.Arsenal
4.Chelsea

I think the difference between 3 and 4 will be fairly narrow.

I will donate money to this forum if united end up winning a trophy and we don't... ( 5 bucks at most) ... United fans willing to do the same should arsenal win a trophy and you don't?

by Onyx Fri Aug 17, 2012 1:46 am

They have Hazard, Mata, Oscar, Torres, Ramires... actually I don't why they're favourites with just those players. Maybe if they signed Hulk or something.

No one believes in Arsenal now with the loss of RVP, same could be said with Drogba too though. Either way City best squad and Utd got refs in pocket, mini league for final 2 CL spotssmaybe??

United have not been trophyless in a long time mate. You guys cant even win the carling cup. Stupid bet

by Arsenalfaithfull Fri Aug 17, 2012 2:11 am

The jury is still out on how ur mf will do. Scholes and carrick won't be able to keep it going for the entire year. The understudies have not developed enough to play in the 2 man midfield.

This would have not been a problem in the past - compensated by
You guys outscoring the opposition
Having the sturdiest defense

Ferdinand isn't getting younger .... And ur fullbacks are far from convincing. City IMO are better than any other team in the league by quite a distance. Which is why , me saying that Arsenal will win a trophy is just as credible as you saying united will win.

Very one-sided view, tbf.

by Le Samourai Fri Aug 17, 2012 2:14 am

Hopefully Arsenal wins it.

Will be a sad day when all the Arsenal jokes stop, butbenough is enough, Wenger deserves a trophy.

Cazorla and Arteta will get it done for him :bow:

by Real Kandahar Fri Aug 17, 2012 2:18 am

They aren't contenders yet, as simple as that, they used their money on young players who can be future flops...

With that money, they could have signed Sahin, Ibra, and Van persie lol

Don't need a thread lol. bet was to PSG winning the title or not

by Arsenalfaithfull Fri Aug 17, 2012 2:19 am

All I'm saying is that united are undeservingly grouped with city as the front runners. But why? They haven't addressed their biggest problem during the off season, while teams below them have strengthened.

Trophy as in Carling cup, Fa cup or cl? We have more chances of winnig one of those than you ever will. Are you kidding me? United havent gone trophyless since 2006. WTF. Arsenal...are you kidding me. Arsenal are not in competition with United. You are a top 4 team. We are a top 2 possible champions. What rubbish.

And the almighty city that beat us on goal difference without our best defender. What? They needed a last minute goal ion extra *bleep* time to take our title. Are you kidding me? Get a grip of reality. You putting our club on the same plane as Arsenal, is quite frankly embarrasing.

by Arsenalfaithfull Fri Aug 17, 2012 2:44 am

But you failed to close down a 5 point lead with x amount of games left to Play, against an "un gelled" city team. Without your star defender? .... And apparently the only one who defended ... Seeing as you blame the loss of vidic as the only reason you choked.

If that isn't an indication to the decline of man u ( comparison to the man u of previous years) , then sure.... You are right upthere with city! Btw are u in on the bet then?
