"Arsenal, Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Everton, Tottenham and Manchester United battle for title"

With just two points between the top three of Arsenal, Manchester City and Chelsea, we look at the tightest title race in over a decade as Liverpool, Everton, Tottenham and Manchester United remain in contention.

Manchester United remains in contention for 5th spot, that's it. They have 5 points against the other Top 8 clubs through 8 games played. They'll have to keep feeding off the scraps below them for points, and Swansea have shown that they can easily be beat.
 
Can't see them challenging this year, especially considering they've to play against the refs too, bless.
 
We clawed back an 8pt deficit in 2012.

While I don't rate their chances, I wouldn't be so quick to write them off fully given that their two biggest goalscorers and best players are back this weekend...

As many posted on here last season as we fell away, it ain't over until it's mathematically impossible
 
Not a chance in hell, sorry. They'll not overhaul Chelsea, Arsenal or us the way they've been playing, even with Shrek and RVP back.

They are tactically clueless, the players apparently don't like the manager, and too many of their players are just utterly useless or well past their best.

They have a huge rebuilding job to do, and whilst I can still see them making the top 4, they ain't winning the title, not even in one of Rupert Murdoch's most perverted football wank-fantasies

 
Let's look at this logically.

The last couple of seasons the title race has essentially been between two clubs, ourselves and the Rags.

For the Rags to win it from the position outlined in the article, several clubs would need collapses and/or a very poor run of form for them to make up the difference.

That's why I can't see it happening.

imo, we always had it in us, we were never ever as dreadful as manure have been..

they have one player keeping them in the top 10, and if rooney is gone for more than a month they're going to drop out of the top 10.

We did...but we only had one team to climb over, not six.
 
Penny for them, Blues?

Man Utd have chance of winning Premier League - Ferguson
Sir Alex Ferguson still believes Manchester United have a chance of retaining their Premier League title.

The Old Trafford club lie seventh in the table, 14 points adrift of leaders Arsenal with 16 games remaining.

But Ferguson, who stepped down as United manager last May, insisted the league champions are still in the hunt.

"I'm not writing anyone off," said the 72-year-old Scot, adding United, now managed by David Moyes, are always strong in the second half of a season.

Speaking to BBC sports editor David Bond, he said: "Tottenham have started coming forward a bit now, Liverpool are doing very well, Everton are doing very well, City are doing fantastic and Arsenal are top of the league.

"With Jose [Mourinho] you expect them [Chelsea] to win games playing ugly, but all these teams are in there. United are in behind chasing."

The Old Trafford giants have struggled in Moyes's first season in charge having been eliminated from both the FA Cup and Capital One Cup, although they progressed smoothly into the last 16 of the Champions League.

United also suffered three successive defeats for the first time since 2001, in January, when they were beaten by Tottenham, Swansea and Sunderland.

They are six points adrift of fourth-placed Liverpool and risk missing out on the Champions League for the first time since 1992.

Ferguson added: "I find it very difficult to pick the top four. I find it even more difficult to say who is going to win the league."

Moyes qualified for the Champions League once with Everton in 2005, but were eliminated by Villarreal in the play-off round.

The 50-year-old took charge of United following 11 years at Goodison Park after Ferguson recommended his fellow Scot should succeed him as manager at Old Trafford.

The former boss said that he "cannot understand" why some clubs make so many managerial changes, and that the constant upheaval is detrimental.

He stressed that United will not go down that route of sacking managers.

"They [board members] must discuss the qualities of the manager they are going to offer the job to [and] you must look at his CV - the character, the philosophy he has, surely," added Ferguson, who was appointed as a Uefa coaching ambassador on Friday.

"Now if that is the way they have gone about giving the man the job, why don't they persist with it?

"It seems so stupid to me."

He's never going to say anything different really is he? We know he's full of shit, he knows he's full of shit but if he were to say that U*d were out of the title race the media would have a field day( or week )with his quotes.
