Considering they were favourites to lose, a point is better than nothing and will be a good morale booster. Both of Arsenal's games are tricky ones against relegation candidates, and Spurs' games are no different. Stoke away will be a tricky one for them.

Miccoli crying on the pitch. :'[

That Bale free kick... I was sure it was going in and that our quest for the top 4 was finished. Jesus that was scary.

Wooden, 5 million for Ilicic?
Chelsea will win their last two games. I think the Arsenal games could go either way, I really do; I have as much faith in them winning them both as I do Wigan nicking a draw. And Spurs will win unless they do a Spurs and bottle it.
Would love to see Spurs instead of Arsenal.

They're happy to be out of that nightmare for the next season!
I'll take 1 Ilicic, please. I prefer a paper bag.

Palermo relegated?
He'll get plenty of CL time with us next season. A Chelsea win would have been better but we can absolutely not afford to screw our remaining games. Arse-GAF, we are not playing against the big teams but knowing how we can be sometimes anything is possible. We have to fucking win it or we can kiss CL bye. I believe we can do it!
dunno why but I am chortling like fuck

Deserved relegation after years of Zamparini fucking around with his coaches. Instability doomed you and it was always going to, sooner or later.

You can have him, really. He has been fantastic this month but he has also been terrible for nearly a year before that.
Palermo relegated? Sorry, Wooden!
As good as.

I'd like to get Illicic if he can play on the wing, but I'm done doing business with Palermo after Amauri...

Yeah can't say anything against that, Zamps has been an absolute senile cunt.
Arsenal losing or drawing to Wigan and Newcastle seems nearly impossible. Chelsea could drop points to Everton on the final day though.. that'd be interesting. Spurs should win their final two but Stoke at home can always be tricky. It'll be interesting to see how it pans out but I just can't see Arsenal missing 3rd or 4th now. Lucky devils.
Maybe City will get Dybala now.

So Wooden, what's going to be the worst quality of football that you'll be watching next season, Serie B or Danish League?
No. NO. Enough of players like that. We need top talent, which my paisan Ilicic isn't.
Wouldn't be surprised if Wigan beat Arsenal but if the rumours of Martinez leaving for Everton is true then the players will be bummed out and not play at 100%.

Wilbur you knob.
The expectation next year is that we retain the title. If we don't Moyes isn't a failure or anything, but that's the expectation for the club.
Get ready for any minor set back to be dressed up as the end of MUFC though. In fact it'll probably be our fans who will be the worst for it.

Not exactly. If we had lost then Arsenal could afford to drop 2 points, i.e. draw against Wigan or Newcastle. I had a feeling we'd be looking at that game and needing Newcastle to do us a favour. The positive from this result is that they've got a slightly better chance of getting a point than winning.

You can't have Di Maria! Not unless we really are getting Bale, I guess.

Inter being shit as usualy this late in the season with the bad luck of having lots of key players injured.
Best news for me: Rosi scores in the 80th minute giving Parma victory! Thanks Roma! We're in 10th place, could have been much better if we weren't so atrocious in our away games. Still that fucking Inter win at San Siro several weeks ago was some really bad luck. Forza Parma!

Chelsea have Everton at home, it isn't happening. I'd easy have said Wigan to draw if the FA Cup final wasn't sandwiched in between. Newcastle fighting for their lives might be awkward, but it'll more than likely be Arsenal.
Chelsea are 100% in, Arsenal like 70%. Two trickier ties than they look on paper I think.

He still should have brought him off for Carroll. It's not like that would have weakened the team defensively.

A Parma fan? Is this real life? Or the 1990s?

With Spurs losing the CL spot and ManU losing Fergie, it's pretty much guaranteed. Cavani and Bale. Holy shit.

Di Maria needs to stay, as back up for Bale. Sell Kaka and Callejon can fuck off for all I care.

I'd rather have Holtby or Vertonghen for the longer free kicks. For ones on the side of the box Bale, why wasn't Hudd whipping it towards goal?
We're the shittest team at defending set pieces and shittest team at taking them.
How many fucking players do you need? Sell us Di Maria, you cunt.

Arsenal's games to Wigan and Newcastle will be very demanding. I'm certainly not expecting wins in either game

I am so fucking scared man.
We have actually been pretty poor going forward recently but our defence has allowed us to win games only scoring 1 or 2 goals. If our defenders crack under the pressure, which they have been known to do once or twice(!), we may be in trouble. I will watch both matches in a state of absolute fear.
