Premiership +

Haven't done this for a while. The final straight of the Premiership race, and after Chelsea succumbed to a late Emile Heskey goal it looks like it's Man Yoo by a length. Arsenal were desperately unlucky to leave OT with nowt on Sunday after dominating the game for long periods, particulary the first one. But Ronaldo's 38th goal and a cracker from Hargreaves almost certainly gave the Red Devils the title.

In fact United could win the title at Stamford Bridge like they did last year, didn't they? Put that one in your Ruskie pipe and smoke it (outside of the stadium) Roman!

Arsenal have only a Champions League place to play for - another trophyless season for Arsene and Liverpool could still slip up, especially with all the crap that is going on behind the scenes. Wasn't Liverpool and Anfield once the home to conversative uniformity?

Everton have had another great season under Moyes with a small squad and some injuries but will have to settle for a UEFA cup place and then Portsmouth, Blackburn, Villa and Man C battle it out for the last one with Pompey having two opportunities.

Derby are gone and have to gain another 5 points to beat Sunderland's lowest ever points tally - unfortunately they only have 4 games left not 4 months! To me Bolton and Fulham have gone, although I was impressed with Foolham's win at Reading on Saturday.

Bolton have had that Charlton look ever since Big Sam left and Little Sam was brought in to change their style. Yep, that worked. And Steve Coppell's Reading, who have the worst goal difference other than the Rams are still in danger but I think Wigan, Birmingham and the Andy Reid inspired Sunderland will be ok. Oh come back fat boy.... please.
