I really enjoyed Besiktas - Liverpool match, deserved win for Besiktas.

I usually don't follow Turkish football, but after seeing the match yesterday I will watch it more often.

Yeah, Besiktas played very well. great support as well.
Think Everton have a decent shot at winning the whole thing from here....

LOOOL true..Arsenal messed up real good...I dont see them qualifying to the next round..n hopefully they dont qualify for CL next season.

Liverpool managed to win at home with a wonderful goal from Coutinho.

The gap between City and United is only 5 points now.

If Arsenal wins from Everton they will be only 4 points behind.

I can't see Chelsea slipping up now but City are still very much in it if they do.

[azguard]

[Sindelar1938]

The race to get a top 4 finish is now looking exciting. 5 teams for the last two spots and all 1 point behind their previous team (48/47/46/45/44). Arsenal and Liverpool have gone in form at the correct time and are my picks to get into Champions League.

It's a very exciting fight, indeed.

However, I think United will lose the fight in the comming matches and lose more space.

I find it hard to believe they can get their hands on a Champions League ticket.

Looking likely now, their fixtures are brutal. Arsenal and Liverpool are going to get the last two spots.

Getting a feeling that while Man City may not get Guardiola, they may well end up getting a slightly over the hill Messi
The recent rude comments about his love for pizza by a Barca functionary seems to be setting that move up

I wouldnt listen to media rumors. Messi is contracted to Barca until 2017 and they've just made him the highest paid footballer in the world http://www.stuff.co.nz/the-press/sport/football/10054999/Barcelona-to-make-Messi-highest-paid-player

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2382010-lionel-messi-pizza-allegations-denied-by-ex-barcelona-boss-carles-rexach

"I think that last season he ate more pizzas than he should have done or was necessary."

And do you really think  a silly comment like that would make him ditch his club?

Yeah, and also, when United faces Arsenal or Liverpool now, they won't get away with a lucky win this time.

United currently is nothing more than an average team with a few big names. That's it.

11 points. My best yet I think.

There's only one Premier League game this weekend until next because of the FA Cup quarter finals. Few midweek Champions league games as well.

They have a lot of big names. Mata, Di Maria, RVP, Rooney and others, they should have done much better. Have to say LVG has surprised me with his brand of turgid hoofball.

Big names but they don't play any better than the players of West Ham, Swansea, Stoke, etc.

Looking forward to their FA cup match against Arsenal.

I really think Arsenal will win it quite easily if United won't use the parked bus method.

United have got the strikers they're just not putting them in the back of the net. They've been playing very mediocre recently and they were lucky to get a late goal against West Ham. Arsenal are far stronger. I think they'll win but MUFC will be lucky to get a draw but they're at home so it's possible.
