United 7 Away

Manchester United are only seven points away from winning their third successive League Crown with a win over struggling Middlesborough today.  Ryan Giggs and Park Ji-Sung scored to give the champions a comfortable six point lead over 2nd place Liverpool.  With four games left in the league, United are poised to take the crown needing only two wins and a draw playing Manchester City, Wigan, Arsenal and Hull.  United have wins in the first fixture of the season against all of those clubs but Arsenal.  United and Arsenal are also going toe to toe in the Champions League Semi-Finals for a spot against Chelsea/Barca in Rome on 27 May.  United lead that tie 1-0 facing them in the 2nd leg at the Emirates on Tuesday.
