I think Sol Campbell is disgustingly overrated. Watching England in the summer showed how much they miss Rio, because all they could do was sit back on the edge of their own box and head things away.
It looks like great defending, but you watch someone like Carvalho, in the summer, who'd win the ball off the striker, beat a couple of men and set up another attack, and that to me is what a great defender does. Rio brings organisation and class to a team. The best defenders are genuine class footballers.
United won't win the league this season. You're just trying not to curse Chelsea. It is their's to lose at this stage. But then I would have said the same about United this time last year.
Chelsea just look a lot stronger, though.
In saying that, if Duff and Robben got injured again, and they are both injury prone players, Chelsea could well be up shit creek.
