Top three guaranteed. Beat Chelsea and we're guaranteed top two.
A great result, especially when you consider that Johnson was playing for Norwich for large parts of the second half.
Never in doubt
I know we've got 3 'cup finals' left to go but sorry, just can't resist this on Easter.
- Gerrard is not a 'top, top player', 'seldom had a kick' when coming up against a midfield of Roy Keane and Paul Scholes, only had more success at international level than Michael Carrick because of 'bravado'
- Brendan Rodgers is 'eight players short of becoming genuine title contenders'
- Henderson’s gait will cause him problems later in his career because he runs from his knees with a straight back.
- Surprise that Rodgers was appointed as Dalglish’s replacement, given that he was ‘only’ 39 years old.
- Highlights the American fly-on-the-wall documentary that followed Rodgers at the start of his tenure as a ‘mistake'
- Handpicking David Moyes as his successor, proclaiming "there is no question he has all the qualities we expect of a manager at this club."
I quite like the last one.I know we've got 3 'cup finals' left to go but sorry, just can't resist this on Easter.

Massive result. We need a better defence but we're top of the league, 5 points clear with three games to go, so I'll live with this one for now! I honestly can't believe back in January I was wailing about no signings. I should have had more faith in Brendan and the team.
But still glad they lost; apart from the obvious bonus of the 3 points to our own campaign we owed it to Sunderland to take all the points from Norwich.
Kaito = 11/11 - Oh My God!!!!! Keep kissing lad!
Ha, don't think ive ever sworn so much watching a game, that was one of toughest ever games to watch.
Yeah hope he said "we go Chelsea, we go better" after the game...some of our players don't have the brains to figure out that is always implied.

short term analysis - We didn't play well for a large majority of that game , we couldn't control the game and were very sloppy . But at this stage results are all that matter and we roll on . We may have been nervous but we got through it . We were actually pretty stable after it went 3-2 . 11 wins on the bounce , that is special .
Long term - there is lots of room for improvement in aspects of our game , especially defensively . We really concede too many goals and we can't defend crosses . Has a team top of the table with 3 games to go ever conceded as many as us ? So many of the goals we concede are individual errors or just shocking play . Cut that out and who knows where this team can go .
I don't like how we seem to step off when we get a lead and look to just play on the break ,we've done it all season and yes we've got away with it so perhaps what the fuck do i know but still , we make it hard for ourselves .
I'm just not a fan of mingolet . I'd really look to replace him in the summer . I of course acknowledge how good his shot stopping is but the other mistakes he makes are outweighing the positives .
Anyway most of the above is for the summer . For the moment let's enjoy it and relax until next sunday .

Looks like Jose is trying his best to make forget Ferguson...
Damn dude ... 'match thread' and you're a few points away from #19 and you're worrying about the summer? recover from the heart attack, drink a cold beer, and SMILE! We're on top the league.
Nope. Never done before in the 38-game Premier League era I think. We'll be setting another new record by the time we're done.
We've conceded 44 so far.
The Mancs conceded 43 last season after 38 games. Close but we've already exceeded that.
After that, you have to go back to 1999-2000, when the Mancs (again) conceded 45.
In 1996-1997, the Mancs (fuck, again!) conceded 44.

where did i say i was worrying or not enjoying this ? . I was merely analysing what i saw from the team today and over the season .
anyway i'm just from the ronnie moran school of football -
Come on boys! Do it for Piers Morgan!
Fuck off Chelsea FC, you ain't got no history, 5 European cups and 18 leagues, that's what we call history!
What nose? All I see is a big purple eggplant.
