It was a big weekend in the Premier League with a solid victory for Liverpool at Old Trafford stunning the Man Utd faithful and with Chelsea winning against Man City.
Man Utd retain a 4 point buffer and a game in hand. United have lost big games in Championship run-ins before and held on to win, last season they lost to Chelsea but held on to clinch the title on the final day. Their performance in the next few games will be telling, with any signs of a let up will be seized upon.
Liverpool were good value for their win. Torres made Player of the Season candidate Nemanja Vidic look slow, and Goalkeeping giant Edwin Van der Saar looked ordinary.
The Battle for fourth has gotten more interesting with Arsenal moving back up into the Champions League spots for the first time since December, and Aston Villa losing at home to Tottenham. Everton's Victory moved them to within 4 points of Champions League football as well.

Great win for Liverpool and Torres was cheeky and on form. To boot Real Madrid out of Europe then thump the hell out of Man U away from home is the type of Liverpool i want to see. Its the type of Liverpool the world is owed.
How i loved Fergie's face at the end of the match, ha ha ha get it up ye..!!
I still think Man U will win even though Chelsea are in second 4 points behind Man U but but Man U do have a game in hand.
I think it will pan out like this.
Man U
Chelsea
Liverpool
Arsenal
Villa I hope villa get 4th spot.
I would like to see Villa make it too, but I now have my doubts there form has dipped at the wrong time, Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea know how to the run-in to end of season, I fear Villa may have missed their chance.
