The Premier League Title Race is blown wide open

Dramatic day today in the Premier League in a race I suspected might already be over. First off, Man United scored a super-dramatic last minute winner against local rivals Manchester City, and then this afternoon Chelsea saw John Terry sent off as they stuttered to a 2-1 defeat agsint Spurs.

Man United sit just a point behind Chelsea now, and the Blues only have a better goal difference of 3. With Chelsea still having to play Liverpool, the title race is far from over.

Those two matches also massively impact the race for the fourth Champions League spot. City started the day in fourth place, but the defeat to United, along with Spurs win, mean its the London club currently occupying the lucrative last Champions League spot.


So the Premier League is back to being exciting. Certainly Chelsea do have to slip up again, and they didn’t have all the luck against Spurs but its nice to have a quick reminder that in this game, absolutely anything can happen.
