Man Utd hav won the premier league title for the record 18th time. Credit to them well done.
But then thers all this talk about them knocking Liverpool off thier perch of 18 league titles.
Whats all the bullshit about?
Man Utd have knocked no1 off any perch. They jsut achieved what Liverpool achieved 20 years ago. As far as logic sees it both the clubs have equal number of league titles and Liverpool have won more European titles than Utd.
Well I don want any Utd fan to think that im being biased here but Im sure even they will admit that Liverpool pushed Utd all the way to the title. Yes end of the day all that matters is who has more points but its certainly a thin margin.
Utd have won the league by 4 points playing an almost full strength squad throughout the season. Liverpool on the other hand have been plagued by injuries to the 2 most influential players Gerrard and Torres. What might have been if those 2 had played more of this season??
Looking back I can recall Sami Hyypia hitting the post against Hull City when the score was 2-2.
I remember Steven Gerrard Hitting the post twice against stoke City and the game finished 0-0.
I remember Yossi Benayoun hitting the post against West Ham which finished 0-0.
If any of those had gone in it might have been a totally different story today. But thats football for you sometimes the ball goes in sometimes it doesnt.
Im not taking anything away from Utd or thier fans who read this. Hats off to them for equalling Liverpool's record.
But my gut feeling says that next season we'll be back stronger and more determined and its gonna be a whole new ball game.
