Henry Winter gets carried away and calls to tomorrows supposed title decider El Climactico. Whilst their is absolutley getting away from the magnitude of this encounter i'm still not sure you can call it the title decider. That last Sunday of the season Chelsea have got to go to Goodison and we have Blackpool at home. The permutations that i take from that are we could lose tomorrow, not that i think it will happen and still lift the crown on the last day of the season. I wouldn't want to have to go to Everton needing to win and maybe to having to score three or four goals. So whilst if we win, it's good night Vienna for the rent boys, should the worst happen, it's not a totally lost causeas they are not playing Wigan at home this time.
Still as i said i'm pretty confident it won't come to that. In fact if i'm honest, i'm as worried about Blackburn away as i am about tomorrow. It's hard to be confident about any away fixture this season and i'm not sure if it would be a good thing for them to be completely safe or still in slight danger of relegation.
Fergie confirms that Rooney will be fit to face Chelski tomorrow and that the changes were crucial to give us the best chance tomorrow, unlike last year's encounter which i presume he is referring to.
Lee Dixon thinks anything can happen tomorrow and agrees with me that we could lose tomorrow and still win the title on the last day of the season. He thinks we should fear Drogba, he is a good player, but he has never really been outstanding at Old trafford, in fact he has been quite the opposite on a couple of occasions. James Lawton thinks United will edge the game and title chase but believes Ancelotti will go out his own man, and that means including Drogba in front of Torres. The Mail looks at United's home form with just two points dropped and one goal conceeded.
Kevin McCarra wonders where the challenge to the top two is to come from, no doubt there are hundreds of Berties with pen in hands as i type this.
United's brightest young hope is in trouble again, there isn't much you can say about this, i mean the potential glory, affluenceand he seemingly is quite happy to fuck it all up. I can't see how United or indeed any football club could put up with this if he got anywhere near the first team, the tabloids would have a field day dragging the club through the mud. And you would have to admit if only half of it was true that they would be entitled to.
Ryan Giggs hopes to lay the ghost of Rome 2009 at Wembley, he still hasn't sat down to watch that game again, he aint alone, i haven't even watched any highlights just like i haven't and won't watch highlights of this years FA cup semi final. He didn't a great game that night, but who did, with Ronaldo in front of him, playing for himself and Carrick and Anderson having a night to forget he didn't really stand much of a chance of influening the game. I fancy he will influence this game, even if it's from the bench.
Kevin Garside believes United must stay true to their own traditions in their quest to defeat Barcelona and lift a fourth champions league final.
Is Laurent Blanc aka Larry White about to lose the top job in France over race quota row. He would still be one of the main contenders to succeed Fergie as his main point which was not racist about skilful players over strong athletic ones is something that United follow throroughly and look at this season's youth team.
What a start Lancashire have had to the season with an unbelievable third four day victory to top the table. Not many people saw this coming. Still let's not get too carried away too soon.
Tributes poor in for "the king of European Golf" as Seve loses his battle against cancer. Not the greatest, but surely the most exciting and most charismatic Golfer of the age.
Deborah Orr blames the Lib dems and implicitly Clegg for the humliation that the yes camp received in Thursday's referendum. It would some of the Lib dems can't wait to get their digs in at Clegg already as Cable describes the tories as ruthless and tribal something he admitted some of the party had understood all too well. And who prey didn't, the leader of the party? Gary Gibbon talks of a massive political misjudgement by the Lib dems.
Polly Toynbee argues that whilst the night was an unmitigated disaster for the Lib dems the night was pretty bad for Labour and wonders where it goes from here. George Eaton asks where did it all go wrong for Labour in Scotland which was almost as big as disaster for the party as the voting reform defeat was for the Lib dems.
Steve Richards thinks the seeds of Clegg's current woes come from his the moment of his seemingly greatest triumph. Richards always seems fairer or should that be more sympathetic towards Clegg than other centre left pundits. But it's hard to feel sympathy towards someone who has inflicted such momumental and long lasting damage to the liberal left cause.
Paul Mason looks at the most charismatic, successful and dominant British politician of the moment, Alex Salmond, who ironically enough would like to be the man to dismantle the British state. I think he is going to be the dominant politician in Scottish politics for years to come, and Labour's only chance to change their fortune north of the border would be to entice Brown or someone of that magnitude into the leadership of the Scottish labour party.
Cristina Odone tells us to watch out for Chris Huhne who has been positioning himself to take advantage of Clegg's self inflicted agonies. I would want someone more to the left, but if they fuck up their next leadership choice they may well be finished for years.
Nick Robinson wonders who has really won tonight, adding Cameron and Salmond may be wise to be careful what you wish for.
