The Final Hurdle

















One point......thats all that separates Chelsea and Manchester Utd going into the last week of an enthralling Barclays Premier League Season.And that one point will be enough for Chelsea to win their first title since the "Jose Mourinho" era at Stamford Bridge,if they can beat Wigan at home on Sunday.
Chelsea are the clear favourites going into the weekend,as the Blues have amassed an amazing 49 points out of 54 at Stamford Bridge,but this season has taught us to expect only the unexpected.Especially.with Wigan having nothing to lose,and and ManU clear favourites versus Stoke,we could be in for a nasty surprise.
End of the season games are always tough,with relegation threatened teams upsetting the big boys,and it can really get tense,as Sir Alex Ferguson is known to have said frequently " Football, Bloody Hell" !!! So,what are the scenarios possible on Sunday?? A Chelsea win on the evening will win them the title,irrespective of the outcome of United's match.But,a draw or a defeat,paired with a United win,will hand the Red Devils their Record 19th title.But,it will take nothing short of a miracle from Wigan to achieve that,looking at Chelsea's terrific form ,which has seen them scoring an amazing 95 goals so far in the league,just 2 short of the record in the Premier League.
Although it should be a straightforward game for the Blues,there will be immense pressure till they take the lead.Just imagine the scenario of Image of Rooney just scoring Utd's 5 th goal versus Stoke flashing at Stamford Bridge,with Chelsea leading 1-0 with3 minutes to go,imagine the pressure!!!! The ball falls to Hugo Rodallega 10 yards out,he produces a fierce drive aaaaaaaand Cech parries it away.that's what tends happen again and again anyways,but it's an absolute nightmare for Chelsea fans like me!!!!
So,I can't wait for tomorrow's game ,because as much tension I feel in the adrenaline,I can't wait to watch John Terry lifting the Premier League Title to the heavens after 4 years !!!!!!!!
