ManUtd just won 4-2 after being behind at the half 2-0. At the start of the 2nd half they were still behind until Ronaldo entered onto the pitch. While he didn't score any of the goals I believe that just his presence on the field made the difference.
At the same time Chelsea tied with Bolton 2-2 which means that ManUtd is now 5 points ahead of Chelsea making the head to head that's coming up a little easier for ManUtd. The Special One seems to be in deep chit right now and as far as I am concerned it couldn't happend to "nicer" person.
I would say that the Premier Championship is now closer than ever. Three cheers for Manchester United.

I did not view the game. You make it sound interesting though. Glad your team won. You sound really excited at the final score.

My main interest is in one player and the assistant coach. The player "grew" up in my club..Sporting...and the assistant coach was not only a former coach of Sporting but is also my neighbor. I can see his house from my back balcony. I am an avid sports fan...here in Portugal there is only one sport that makes a difference and that is soccer/football. Without sports and music I might just as well give up the ghost...that's why I show my excitement....it keeps me young and going. +

It sure brings the games home when you know someone that is playing. Doesn't it?

Yeah but the only one I have ever talked to personally was the assistant coach. Well, at least on the first occasion a few words passed but on subsequent occasions it was just a simple good morning or good afternoon. However, I talk to his brother-in-law whenever he's riding his bicycle in the neighborhood or he's in front of his sister's house. The final score was relevant in that Manchester United was behind 2-0 at the half and then scored 4 unanswered goals. Everyone at the local café where we watch the games was extatic with the result...not just me especially since Chelsea, who has a Portuguese headcoach and has won the championship two years running, tied losing two points. This puts them 5 points behind with only three games left to make up the difference.

I wouldn't call it luck milos. The game changed after Ronaldo came on the pitch. He made spaces for the others, especially Roony. I agree that the upcoming game with AC Milan is going to be difficult with only one goal difference and Milan scoring two away goals. However, nothing is impossible in football on any given day and all MU has to do is keep their cool and give it their best and they will go through to the Champions final. The question is will it be Chelsea or some other team?

Now the Premier Championship is MU. What a pity for Arsenal!
