And what have you got to show for it? You're in third place and out of the FA Cup. You went out of the Carling Cup to Tottenham, who Man United beat in the final.

You're having your best season in years. Chelsea are having their worst in years, and we're still ahead of you. Man United have struggled to match their heights of last year, but they've gone to Asia and won the World Mickey Mouse Cup, they've won the Carling Cup, are in the semis of the FA Cup and they are in pole position to win the league again.

There's also the fact that as you've drawn twice as many games as United, you will have had to work hard to try and gain wins from those games. Man United won't have had to fight to win similar games because they've had the quality to win them comfortably.

Chelsea have only been a club worthy of notice for a handful of years!!!!

It is, considering what Hughes achieved as a player. 'Cesc' can come back when he has achieved a tenth of what Hughes achieved. Also, Hughes deserves massive credit for the very dignified way he is going about his business at city which, lets be honest, must be difficult at times in the current climate. Speaking of 'Cesc' what was he doing wandering on the pitch in his civvies anyway? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/footbal ... 950287.stm Who does he think he is, Justin Timberlake?

I like Hughes. He's not the most popular manager we have had, by any stretch. However, I like his calmness, confidence and dignity. I think he is a good figurehead for the club.

Reminds of Henry's presence at games when he was injured.

I like Fabregas as a player, but he behaves like someone who deserves a good slap.

He's up there with Ronaldo in the 'excellent player, nob of a bloke category'. Sort of like me in reverse I like to think...
