Premiership Title Up For Grabs
So with both Man United and Chelsea faultering over the Christam / New Year Period, what will 2007 hold for the two title challengers?
Well, manager Jose Mourinho (Chelsea) claimed just before Christmas that certain players were untouchable such as Drogba and Ballack and then he slams them for a couple of poor performances. Not my idea of getting the best out of your players.
On the other hand Alex Ferguson (Man United) just keeps plodding away with his current squad, with the addition of Larsen who should make an appearance this weekend (plus the continued interest in hargreaves).
The January transfer window is about to open and Mourinho is the more likely candidate to rush into transfers, due to the lack of form of the current Chelsea squad. Whether getting John Terry back in defense will improve things, time will tell. They are virtually the same squad as last year and should still be able to get the job done. United on the other hand have definitely grown this season as a team and if Ronaldo can keep his level of play going and Rooney can reach 3/4 of his potential, they will be hard to stop.
