Man Utd are champions for the 19th time. Unreal feeling watching them lift the trophy, even though it was wrapped up last week!! Praying that I get this feeling again after the champions league final on Saturday! As I mentioned in my first post....two more tests to complete before then!
It's interesting watching the different reactions of each player as they lifted the trophy aloft to the crowd. Giggs and Scholes making very little fuss as they raised it above their heads, maybe understandable on their 12th and 10th time (respectively) of receiving the honour!

Smalling and Gibson also quite modest in their celebrations, almost embarrassed not knowing how to act with it being their first time, hopefully they will get a bit more practice over the years! Two of the happiest men lifting the trophy for different reasons were Michael Owen and Javier 'Chicharito' Hernandez, both showing similar elation. Chich for winning his first, Owen showing relief at finally receiving a league honour, as he says to complete the set. To quote the man himself "If you can't beat them. Join them!"

To end on a more depressing note, I now have to hit the library for the rest of the week. Won't be posting again till next weekend so hopefully be even more ecstatic then!!
