Is it the final nail in the coffin?

I know it ain't over until the last match but this seems to be a tough blow to all United fans.

A must-win game against their bogey team Blackburn resulted in a draw which meant United now risk leapfrogged by Arsenal for the second place. In a season that had till last week raised expectations of a grand double might just well fizz out being a trophy-less season.

What went wrong? The absence of talisman...no matter what everyone says, Rooney is the king of the pack - at least in his current form. United missed him at Blackburn more than Old Trafford when they were knocked off by Bayern. Chances galore but nothing to show in the goals column meant that Rooney is a sore miss for the team.

Berbatov has been an expensive purchase. There were always skeptics right from the day of his purchase, thanks to his languid style and laid-back nature. Many questioned if Fergie actually made a good buy. Daggers are still out, but personally I would like to see a more consistent performer.

There still is chance and there still are chances for United to win, but will they get another lease of life?
