That's a nice example of Mr. Ferguson stating the obvious.

Not quite as bad as this one though:

well it will now make the players realise how close it is going to be, Fully Motivate the utd players, to up there game. The Chelsea and arsenal players probaly will now feel a little bit nervous, more arsenal there due to there lack of experience in these situations. I am sorry Benitez didnt say this, cause you would of been turnt on if rafa said this.

Hmmm, seems like ferguson made some innocuous comment about the competetive nature of the title race this season. The bbc have decided to make an article on it and a few people have seen fit to take the ****.:$

How gay...

Mind games are designed to get people and players thinking. sometimes stating the obv cant be a form of mind games.

He has said it will be tight. then gone on to say

"We only have eight games left. Chelsea have nine. We are all involved in Europe. Chelsea also have the FA Cup."

so adding more pressure on Chelsea to say they got another competition. and another game.

"You have to think about goal difference," added Ferguson.

another form of playing a game with the mind.

he hasnt just said this will be tight, it the other stuff he has just slipped in that will add pressure and get other clubs thinking.
