Liverpool, a fantastic 2 weeks it's been for them. First with the crushing of Real Madrid, and then Manchester United at Old Trafford. Villa were crushed 5-0 at Anfield as well. But that hardly surprised me, as Villa were on a very bad run as it is. But Martin O'Neill always has bad runs in March, so he could cause some problems for Utd, in April, as they aren't so bad then.
The reasons why Utd will win the title-
LIVERPOOL'S CHANCES:
A few weeks back, I'd have rated Liverpool as having zero chances of winning the league title, but boy, how much can 2 weeks change eh? Now they are just a point behind, albeit a game behind as well. But, the international break. It has come at the absolutely wrong time for them. They are with the momentum now, and if Torres or Gerrard come back with injuries, they're done for. Because those 2 players are the only players who can influence the game so much for them.
Liverpool, I still don't think will win the title, but I think they will surrender with a 4 point deficit. I predict they will draw their game at Fulham and at home to Arsenal and that they will the remaining games. Utd will draw at Wigan and somewhere else, but will win the rest of the games. Chelsea will finish 3rd, a point ahead of Arsenal and Villa will 5th, 7 behind the gunners.

The reasons why Utd will win the title-
- Utd have the best squad depth in the Premier League, especially in Centre-midfield. Scholes, Fletcher, Giggs, Anderson, Carrick and Hargreaves(albeit injured)
- Rooney-He is the best striker in the Premier League, in my opinion, even better than Torres. Rooney was the only spark in the games against Fulham and Liverpool, and he is always consistent.
- Leaders: There are quite a few leaders in the squad, especially Ryan Giggs, who has won the league title 10 times, and Paul Scholes and Gary Neville, both 7 times. Rooney is a leader in his own right as well.
