I was going to put some money on United and City to score 2 or more. Good job I didn't!!
City have the worst run in mind until the crunch game. I'd def put money on United now for title. |

"who cares  with all the money being thrown at the players in a desperate attempt to keep them the only winners are the players"
Why shouldn't the players accept the money if it's being offered to them? Who here would say no to their boss if he suddenly offered a huge pay rise to keep you in his employ? Would anyone here say, "No boss, it's ok, you keep it, £20k year is more than enough for my needs." |

"Im hoping City... as no one really deserves it other than them this hasn't been a classic united season at all. "
Wierd. I thought the team who'd amassed the most points after 38 games deserved it. |

did i say it was the players fault they are getting so much money  .the fault lies with the clubs owners who offer the ludicruss amounts of money.its a game of football ffs they need to get a grip before more clubs go to the wall but its probably too late for many. |

It's not even the clubs fault. Sky broke the way football is financed and there is a gulf of difference financially between the Premier League and the Championship. Teams like Real Madrid and Manchester United, and more recently Barcelona, attract the top players naturally because of who they are, the money is a bargaining chip. Take Messi for example, Barcelona have just rewritten his contract to inset a buy-out clause for €250m. Even if he wanted to leave he'd find it difficult playing out the last 18 months of his contract without resigning before Barca offload him to a club prepared to pay a fortune for him. The Bosman Ruling dictates that if he held out he could go on a free but then his agent would negotiate a €100m signing fee at the very least. But he's worth every penny of it - 50 goals this season alone and Ballon d'Or for three years running.
If anyone is any doubt as to the worth of the very top players I siggest you pop along to your local park on a Sunday morning and watch those teams play - there is a world of difference in skill between them and the very best. |
