It's over. United next game in the league is postponed and we will have to wait the 4th March against Bournemouth. Still 6th but well.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Burnley the better team today with the better chances. Chelsea lucky to come away with a point.
Agreed. I have a lot of respect for Dyche and for Burnley for sticking with him.
Or not...
Since the rumours of going to China he has not been the same player.
He's been off the pace lately but when he's on form he's a perfect fit for us.
Decent point I think. We didn't play poorly, Burnley just played an outstanding defensive game.
Only 4 points dropped to teams outside the Top 6 is still amazing.

True! Just looked it up. 43 home pts and 9 away
Chelsea's remaining league fixtures go in perfect alternating sequence of:
'Should be easy'
'Could be tricky'
Swansea (H)
West Ham (A)
Watford (H)
Stoke (A)
Palace (H)
City (H)
Bournemouth (A)
United (A)
Southampton (H)
Everton (A)
Boro (H)
West Brom (A)
Sunderland (H)

Title race over? Hell no. Chelsea were flat today and played very poorly. Champions elect, I don't think so. They're still in the front seat but they also still have work to do. There are 13 games remaining. A couple more of these draws and it will be wide open. They were very, very poor today. The team currently in the best form has got to be UTD.
Was it LVG that Sold him or moyes?
Gotcha!Does writing UTD in block capitals in every post make you feel an über fan?
Don't be daft. Just because he does that doesn't necessarily mean he likes taxis.
86-87 points should be enough to win title. So that's 2 PPG for Chelsea from here on. Still quite well placed. Burnley were 3rd in home table before this gameweek so it is not the worst of results for Chelsea.
Surely Dyer would have been better on a stretcher than havin to walk the whole way across the pitch in agony
fecker
Narsingh has been brilliant since hes joined Swansea. Leaving him out for Dyer was weird but preferring to bring in Routledge who's been poor this decade is a shocking decision.
It is more "over" than it was lol There is now fewer games left, and theyre still a minimum of 8 points clear. City dont play again until 5th march i think, Chelsea will have played Swansea at home, by then and probably extended the lead by a further 3. Theyve one hand on it
And the great form Jose has the team playing, has got the club from 6th, to 6th
Agreed.
They'd have to lose 4 games for the other teams to overtake them.
I can see them losing 1 game until the end of the season, but definitely not 4.
So frustrating, that.
City play tomorrow at Bournemouth, then as you say their next game is 5th March.
This game has been pretty shit so far. Don't really know why I'm watching but I kind of want to see Leicester burn for some reason.
As long as it's against us.
Is it fair to say that a fair number of those (including me) who willed Leicester to the title last year are now willing them towards the precipice, just for the drama value?
yeh. By which time Chelsea will have maybe beaten Swansea at home, and then play West ham on 5th march, i think
They need to lose practically another 4 games really? While everyone else capitalises... i cannot see it
Let's just say Leicester don't look like defending champions.
Chelsea will win the league, might be tighter than the media are saying, but they have enough in the bank already.
Swansea-Leicester dull as feck.
Two sides who need to win, but are scared of losing.
CL winners and relegated. Now that would be something.Maybe Champions League winners?
Watching MOTD and Mane does not look happy even though he scored.
Don't start this again – I bet on it back in August. Got slated on here last week for even mentioning it!CL winners and relegated. Now that would be something.
Fer should be off.
Exactly.
Swansea - Leicester is like a practice match. No pressing, no intensity. Yawn.
This game
