The league race may have been over as United clinched it by drawing with Arsenal yesterday, but we still had a job to do today against West Brom. To see that our lads were still up for this, you just have to look at the little incident between Carragher and Arbeloa when the two fought with each other over their defensive responsibilities. I am glad with the way the lads played today, they could have easily given up knowing that there is no way they can win the league anymore but they still put in a professional performance and easily took care of West Brom.
I expected a bit more from West Brom today, especially since they knew they had to win to avoid relegation. But the moment their defender made an error and gifted Stevie G the ball and Captain Fantastic scored the opening goal, it was game over for West Brom. They tried to fight back but we were just to good for them and they were just poor. When Kuyt made it 2-0 for us, I actually felt sorry for West Brom as they had no officially been relegated.
Not much else to say about this game as I am still feeling a bit low that we missed out on winning the title but we just have to walk on with hope in our heart!
