United need to win the the title in style!! I don't like scrappy wins,with goals scored in the 95th and 97th minutes!! I enjoyed United under Ron Atkinson.Win or lose,the football was great!"

Who says you can't teach an old Drog new tricks?
NANDA SOOBBEN'S CARTOON depicts Manchester United's Alex Ferguson ironically pleading for more time while ageing rivals Chelsea (as depicted by 32-year old African striker Didier Drogba) secure the English Premier League title on the last day of the season with a 8-0 thrashing over Wigan. In addition to the title they last won in 2006, Drogba's hat-trick against Wigan ensured he finished the season as the Premier League's top scorer with 29 goals, ahead of United's Wayne Rooney, eight years his junior!
