Now go beat Arsenal on Sunday

I'm kinda concerned now that they won't be as juiced for that match...

That would be pretty funny, I wonder what's gonna happen on Sunday. I've seen a couple fan protests so far, asking everyone to stay in the concourse and not take their seats until after the guard of honor.

What's going to happen? Arsenal players will be waiting for champions to give standing ovation by the exit of the locker room. Fans should be doing the same. They have 21 points difference between these two teams. Hands down and respect.

I agree with Massimo(!)

It's not Uniteds fault. Show them the respect they deserve, then boo the directors box if they feel aggrieved.

Lol I agree with you massimo , united have given us a guard of honour before (91) , we should respect em , worthy champions.

Im worried about that too. They really have nothing to play for and with Suarez mistaking Ivanovic for a snickers bar, RVP should have his way for the golden boot.

I wonder how RVP statute will look next to Fergie's :love:

but in all seriousness; it feels good man. Kagawa is finally settling in that 10 role behind Robin and I have a feeling Rooney will be playing CM next summer if we don't sign a Midfielder (good chance we won't).

Ronaldo could be the only player who could have got a statue had he spent his entire career at old Trafford. I don't know if even Cantona, Giggs and Scholes might get one.

I think Giggs will get one for sure, there's no way they completely ignore the 13 titles he's won and a possible 14 next year. Or they do one with Giggs and Scholes together.

QPR are seriously going to fine him for this? He was clearly just dressing up as Luiz. Maybe the Belgian FA should fine Hazard too for wearing the Brazil kit.

Suarez to be banned for 10 matches. I won't be happy if that doesn't include our match against them next season.

Even if he appeals and wins, this pretty much guarantees the Golden Boot goes to Van Persie.

He might not be in the EPL next season.

Yeah, he is probably gone to Bayern or Juve. The guy is crazy but will have a lot of suitors.

All I can say is great week to be a United fan.

1. City lose
2. Scouser bites opponent, gets ostracized
3. Wrap up league with a RvP hat trick
4. Scouser gets 10 game ban
5. End with RvP getting a guard of honor at the Emirates

Posted this earlier but the BBC got hold of the story

Over-excited Manchester United fans hoping to congratulate hat-trick hero Robin van Persie have inadvertently bombarded a 52-year-old IT consultant in India with Twitter messages. It's a classic case of mistaken identity.

Ravi Visvesvaraya Sharada Prasad isn't used to being a star.

But a cursory look at his Twitter handle over the last 24 hours shows he has - at least on Twitter - become one.

"Congrats @rvp!!" is one tweet. "@rvp You really made the difference for us this season, well done," is another.

"Great scenes as @RVP celebrates winning his first title at United... Well done mate" and "@rvp hey Robin, that was a fantastic hat trick...can you send me a shirt please," are others.

As soon as Prasad, from Delhi, realised what was going on, he tried to rectify it.

"RVP is the account of Ravi Visvesvaraya Sharada Prasad, a telecom & infotech consultant in India. RVP is NOT the account of Robin van Persie," he tweeted.

"This is NOT the Twitter account of Robin Van Persie. Please do NOT mention @rvp if you mean Robin Van Persie," he added.

But this only spurred some fans to retweet his tweets and jokingly praise Prasad for his part in Manchester United's success.

"Congratulations to @RVP you fully deserved it. Incredible since you are a part time footballer & info tech consultant. #CHAMPIONS2013," tweeted one.

"He consults when he wants, He consults when he wants, Ravi Visvesvara Prasad, he consults when he wants, dont you @rvp," tweeted another, imitating a football chant.
