Manchester United set to lift Barclays Premier League 2011 trophy

After the quite start of the Premier League 2011 campaign Manchester United made strongest ever comeback. At one stage Manchester United are closing gap to snatch 19th Premier league title. Currently Red Devils are with Liverpool having won 18 Premier League titles.

Manchester United are now on a winning spree against their arch rivals Chelsea, Red have won the last three encounters against Chelsea. Despite spending more than £90m during 2011-2012 campaign Chelsea will finish trophy less this season and also if Chelsea didn't reduce the wage bill and debts before 2014, Blue will not be eligible to play in Champions league according to UEFA Fair-Play rules.


Today's encounter of Chelsea against Manchester United was title decider, both the teams have now played 36 matches but Manchester United are leading the points table with 76 points whereas Blues are second with 70 points.

Manchester United started the match strongly and the the miracle kid Chicharto scored his 20th goal of the season, before Hernandez only one player has scored more than 20 goals for Manchester United and that was Ruud Van Nistelrooy. Nistelrooy scored 35 gaols for Reds in his first season.

Nemanja Vidic doubles the lead in the 23rd minutes, Frank Lampard  revives the Chelsea's hopes in 68th minute after opening account for Chelsea. Once again Carlo Ancelotti left Nicklous Anelka and substitute Solomon Kalou with £50m man disaster Fernando Torres. But once again Fernando Torres failed to do something fancy for the Blues and Chelsea lost the match by one goal.

After loosing everything during 2010-2011 campaign Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti's future is in dark.
