1 down... 6 to go...

The Middlesborough game went as planned... 2-0 just as I had predicted. A smooth overall display capped with Giggs' goal less than a week after winning the PFA Player of the Year award. Hopefully the Welsh Wizard will land his 11th and Man United's 18th top flight championship trophy later this month. All that's needed now is 7 points from 4 games.

Later tonight is the Champions League return leg at Emirates against Arsenal with United taking a 1-0 lead into the game. That lead could and should have been a lot more emphatic based on the display they put up at Old Trafford 7 days back. This tie should definitely have been put to bed and unfortunately that's not the case. But on the flip-side it means that we are in for yet another exciting United vs Arsenal match today. Can't wait really!

Prediction: 1-1 draw (United progress 2-1 on aggregate).
