Realistically only 3 teams left in the race (Utd, Arsenal, Chelsea) but City are still in with an outside chance. (Chelsea have less points but two games in hand..)

Arsenal for me.

Arsenal without a doubt, although I reckon United will just about do it, but I hope I'm wrong.

50/50 Between United and Arsenal..

Want united to win it because they will beat Liverpool's record of 18 championships and i want Arsenal to win it because i think they deserve it the most.. played the better football out of the the top 4 teams but have just been really unlucky in some games

Arsenal, because its been a while, and they dont try to buy their way into a title.
And also, their football is attractive.

I can't go much longer without a win in something...the league would be amazing, but I would settle for the FA Cup. Can't see us doing the CL.

Nonsense, every top team competing to challenge for top honours every year has to spend, it maybe be a small amount sometimes because Arsenal have a quality squad at the moment (minus the sometimes hapless defence/goalie) but they're as bad as Utd, Chelsea etc over the years if you of course take the homegrown talent out of the equation;).

Arsenal do play attractive football but that doesn't always win you trophies sometimes, each team has their own individual styles of play so Arsenal and Barcelona are not different from everyone else in that aspect IMO!:)

Oh contrare...

Liverpool's net spending over five years on players is £82.5m and United's has been £85.5m. Meanwhile, Chelsea spent £154.8m net on players during that time and Arsenal just £3.4m.

that's on transfers, anyway. In 2010 Arsenal were 13th in the Premier League for spending:

1 Manchester C - £486,110,000 - £378,557,000
2 Chelsea - £563,340,000 - £371,465,000
3 Liverpool – £419,055,000 – £184,735,000
4 Tottenham – £383,550,000 – £182,832,500
5 Aston Villa – £253,240,000 – £142,015,000
6 Manchester U – £419,350,000 – £128,910,000
7 Newcastle – £306,695,000 – £108,470,000
8 Sunderland – £180,265,000 – £104,035,000
9 Birmingham C – £135,020,000 – £76,445,000
10 Fulham – £121,381,000 – £68,486,000
11 Everton – £217,245,500 – £54,975,500

12 Wolves – £84,919,000 – £45,874,000

13 Arsenal – £273,440,000 – £35,866,000
14 West Brom – £84,380,000 – £32,012,499

15 Stoke City – £49,140,000 – £26,610,000

16 Bolton – £84,470,000 – £19,700,000
17 Blackburn R – £182,662,000 – £6,527,000
18 Wigan – £80,365,000 – £4,472,500
19 Blackpool – £3,327,500 + £1,457,500
20 West Ham – £179,082,000 + £3,900,000 -

To be fair, nearly every penny we have spent has been from money we have made from players we've sold.

City and Chelsea are the worst, don't notice any one else in the English league being that bad really.

If Arsenal had a decent goal keeper they would without a question be top of the league and have won the Carling cup but for some reason Wenger hasn't brought one yet...

15 Million and this guy is yours

Chelsea are managed by Herbert Lom. Mourinho>Lom.
Liverpool are nowhere because they sell all their best players and their squad is weak.
Arsenal have quality attacking players but poor centre backs and goalie.
City wasted money on many average players like Barry. They play 3 defensive midfielders which is fail. Hughes>Mancini

I would be mega pissed off if I supported Arsenal because it's alright hearing fans saying they the best football in the league but no trophies to show for it over the last couple of years? theres obviously still some problems with the team and I think they need a couple of more world class players (especially in the defence).

Of course any footie fan wants their team to play the best football but would they take that over winning a trophy, I bet they wouldn't;).

It's about getting the job done regardless of how you play or grinding out results sometimes when you're not playing well, which I don't think Arsenal still get and even laughable that again some fans are turning against Wenger again, he's human and makes mistakes like the team but major improvements have to be made at the end of the season..
