Chelsea guard of honour awaits Red Devils at Stamford Bridge as United are crowned Champions...

As I posted before today's Arsenal v Chelsea game, it was all over bar the shouting, that game finished up 1-1 and so it is definitely all over now and United have deservedly been crowned Champions.

Chelsea have been outstanding this season coming back from the dead to steal the points on numerous ocassions, but the Red Devils have been even better because we've played more of an attacking game and I think it's fair to say we've been the entertainers whereas Chelsea have been more workman like. To sum up it's been a case of artists and artisans.

United and Chelsea have had bad injuries to cope with, but as Fergie pointed out today, the Blues squad is stronger than United's and has more depth to it. So here again United have done brilliantly because not only have we managed to cope with serious injuries to key players, the club also sold Ruud Van Nistelrooy in the summer and did not replace him.

To beat Chelsea in the race for the title is a remarkable achievement and it is fully deserved. The Blues guard of honour awaits United at Stamford Bridge in midweek.

Quite what will happen in our remaining games with Chelsea this season remains to be seen. United and Chelsea will want to win the league game and the FA Cup final and let's not forget that some of us, me included, would like to see West Ham relegated in our final league game to repay them for denying us the title a few seasons back.
