With the 3-0 win against Villa, United won their 20th league title. It is United's 13th league title in 20 years! Wonderful! We knew it was coming, but nevertheless, this is a day for us United fans to celebrate and be proud of our team. The match itself was good fun, and 5-1 would probably have been a more fitting result. Robin Van Persie showed once more what a fantastic player he is, with a hat-trick. If Suarez is voted Player of the Year ahead of Van Persie, there must be something seriously wrong, say no more. I think Liverpool fan too would rather have Van Persie than Suarez in their team, even though they may not want to admit it.
This United season has had two halves, in some ways. In the first half of the season, our attackers often bailed out our defenders, who were even called "clowns" by some observers. However, since Vidic's return in January, our defense has been outstanding. It has been great to watch de Gea grow into the role of United's goalkeeper. He is still very young, but already among the best goalkeepers in the world. With more experience and confidence, his consistency will grow further. Rafael has also made great progress this season. And Kagawa and Jones have shown great potential, despite injuries. All in all, we have a young, winning team, which is well positioned to further improve next season, also in Europe.
