..This title seems to have irked Fergie big time now i was reading he had said that there was too much-time added at Etihad..fergie really!!

He of all people knows what that kind of win does to a team and he knows the experience they got will be immense. The tide has surely changed God knows what he will do if Chelsea win the title and put it back on the map.Man U will always be a force (can't just put a good club down, Juve is a good example) but days of dominating,intimidating ref's are long gone and the 20th title will be more had fought and this is what is bothering him. No results can be guaranteed as it used to be so interesting times at Old Trafford and is it just me or it seems Smalling/Jones don't seem to cut it in Manchester and Rio being dropped in the Euros there is more than meets the eye, wacha tuone signings zake this time.

The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not the turbulence; it is to act with yesterday's logic.

I didn't want to have this discussion here but i just had to respond to this ridiculous claim, how many times have we seen Messi dragging Barca through in almost all the competitions.....kwani what have you been watching all this time, he's scored almost half of Barca's goals this season.

This season alone Messi became the first player to score five goals in a Champions League match.

He became Barca's all time goal scorer.

He became the best goalscorer in history in one season in Spain.

He became the best goalscorer in history in one season in Europe.

He became only the second player to pass 70 goals in a first division season since 1924.

You might not be a Barca fan but you cannot compare Messi's influence on the pitch to that of McManaman or Aguero, its almost criminal....he's a football god, given his record so far he's already the top contender for this year's Ballon D'or although the Euros might change that.

Fair play to Nasri for what he's said about Arsenal fans. They've said a lot worse about him before.

C&P

"I said to [assistant] Mick Phelan before the game that if they [City] equalise late on, I think we'll be in trouble because of the impetus of scoring late on.

"Five minutes injury time seemed a lot - I don't know the circumstances of it - but QPR played with 10 men. That was probably a killer for them, having to play with 10 men for such a long period of time.

"At the end of the day, we have lost the league and there is nothing we can do.”

Why twist words like a Sky Reporter?

By the way I had not problem with the 5 minutes - it probably took Barton longer to get out of the pitch

I only gave examples of times people cherish and will never forget.. because football is passion..

If we talk of the World cup.. every Chilean and Ghanian.. to an extent Africans will only remember the Suarez moment..
I will not remember much how much Ronaldinho did a samba on the pitch.. cos they were many and great.. but i will always remember that dash from the halfline.. the side steps and then the Pass to Rivaldo for an equalizer.. then the volley that outwitted Seaman.. sending England out.

Henry was great.. only in Arsenal with very many goals and records to cap it..

Messi's achievements are no small feat, but till he scored the 2 hundredth and something goal for Barca there was a guy, forgotten, with that title..
If its about most goals in a champions league.. it could happen in the first game of next season.. but if its but Maradona.. maradona will live more because of his exploits in Italy and 1986
Pele has refused to go because of similar memorable moments...

get my drift?

@ Poundfoolish.... I think we've already exhausted this Messi vs Pele/Maradona issue but the thing is we don't have time to "remember" what Messi did because his career is still active, he's just 24 years.Who won't remember a player who has won 3 consecutive Fifa player of the year awards and was runners up in the previous two.

This is a good read

but before you open it you might want to have a look at this, it could change your perception of Messi....hata at 6 years he already had moments to cherish.

Daglish was a choice made with lots of sentiments as opposed to his abilities. Liverpool have lived in the past for too long. I am amazed at the mention of one Benitez as a replacement....I wish they stuck with Hodgson, I guess with time, he'd have hacked it.
