Manchester United: Time To Wrap It Up

It's been a nervy finish to a fantastic season of football. The EPL probably shows us why it is called the world's best league through these close finishes.

If things continue to be the way they are right now, Manchester United will be celebrating their 10th title win, their closest victory so far. The early form of Arsenal, the late flourish of Chelsea and the exciting relegation battle has crowned this as the most entertaining season of football.

But the past few months have been the most exciting part of the entire season, Arsenal's flop show, Chelsea's rise and Man Utd's last minute hiccups have all got us clinging to our seats.

With one last week and still the possibility of having Chelsea or Man Utd as champions the league has shown its competitive nature. Ronaldo's dazzling form, Torres' heroics and Grant's managerial success has shown us that it "isn't over till its over."

Even though Arsenal started off in spectacular fashion, their lack of experience and good leadership saw them drop from first place to third place, Chelsea have shown steel off late and have had luck on their side to climb to second place from being virtual no hopers in mid season.

However, Man Utd seem to deserve this title and the UCL more than any other team. I am not saying this because I am a Manc or hate Chelsea, but simply because they have maintained their scintillating form throughout the season, and gotten here after having their worst start of the season.

The kind of form that Man Utd showed against Barcelona and West Ham is one that champions are made of, if not for that luckless result against Portsmouth in the FA Cup, they might still be chasing a treble.

And even though Chelsea's late renaissance has made them title contenders and probable European champions, they have had a lot of luck as well as refereeing decisions go their way, whereas Man Utd have had exactly the opposite.

But now as the season ends, I think its Man Utd's glory to lose. I consider them favourites to win the EPL, and slight favourites to win the UCL. And it will be poetic justice if Ronaldo delivers them both the titles, as he is the driving force behind their success.

All that we can say is Que Sera Sera.
