Yeah, they *could* just do it if both United and Chelski remain inconsistent enough - but I suspect at least one of us (hopefully ourselves) will hit real form at some point.......

And that is even leaving aside their fairly obvious mental "issues"

in as much as they usually throw them away, but we've done it more so - so when they go on their annual long unbeaten run it'll make more of a difference.

Not that they don't.

Er, United would have 19 already if that were the case: Drogba's goal at Old Trafford last season would have been struck-off, Chelsea would have dropped 2 points, United gained 1, United win the league by 2 points.

As for Rooney - well, we probably wouldn't have conceded the last-minute goal in Munich, would have played better and gone through on the return leg at OT, with only Inter to beat in the Final.

And then signed a couple of other players in the Summer so Rooney wouldn't have thrown his toys out of the pram (if that was the actual scenario).

Would we have got a bye past Lyon to the final?
