Reasons Why Chelsea,Arsenal and Liverpool Can't Win the EPL

As you can see, the team that's missing from the title of my post is none other than Manchester United. Oh yes, the team that's at the top of the EPL table and in the semi-finals of the Champions League. Or would you rather support the trophyless Arsenal, one-tournament-team Liverpool or the money dependant Chelsea? Seriously, Manchester United is at the top of their game and I can see nothing going wrong for them this season.

Anyway, back to the title of my post. 10 Reasons EACH Why Chelsea,Arsenal and Liverpool Can't Win the EPL. Let's take a look at what's stopping Chelsea from winning the EPL.

Chelsea - Reason No.1

You will always fail as a manager to motivate your team if you have a face like that.

Reason No. 2
Frank Lampard can and will only score deflected goals. If you didn't notice, most of the 'important' goals he has scored would have either hit a defender or his own teammate before it goes into the back of the net. All hail the King of Deflected Goals!

Reason No. 3
When MOST of your players are paid such obscenely high wages, they tend to be less commited to the team preferring to just sit their ass on the bench and STILL earn lots of money. That's what you get when you buy players like Shevchenko and Ballack.

Reason No. 4
Of all the left-backs to buy, they bought an Arsenal player. Having an ex-Arsenal player in your defensive line would mean him conceding goals whenever possible giving Arsenal a better chance to win the league. That's why you don't see Manchester United buying Chelsea and Arsenal players, it's just stupid.

Reason No. 5
How can you perform well when the owner, someone linked to the Russian Mafia, is watching every game? Can you imagine the pressure? I think he tells them something like " If you don't score today, i will KILL you. " I won't be surprised if tomorrow's headlines read " Drogba and Lampard Gunned Down ".

To start off on the reasons why Arsenal wouldn't, woops i mean CAN'T win the title this season, I read a joke on the internet the other day and thought I'd share it with you guys.

Q: What do Arsenal fans do after Arsenal wins the Champions League?
A: They put away their playstations. :)

Back to the topic...

Arsenal - Reason No. 1
Arsenal, like Chelsea bought a defender from the rival team ( refer to Chelsea-Reason 4 ), thus making them more vulnerable to conceding goals. William Gallas, the hero for Manchester United last night, conceded a penalty for hand ball therefore handing the title to United on a silver platter. Like I said, it's just not right to buy players from your rivals.

Reason No. 2
Many people have said that selling Thierry Henry was the reason behind Arsenal's success this season. But what success is there when there's no silverware in their cabinet? Seriously, you don't increase your chances of winning by selling one of the best strikers in the world. I'm sure United learnt from their mistake when they sold Nistelrooy.

Reason No. 3
Arsenal's goalkeepers are like housewives comparing their diamond rings, the 2 of them cannot stop dissing one another for their own benefits. Jens Lehmann thinks he's the better goalkeeper because he plays for Germany whereas Almunia's not happy with his No.2 position in Arsenal's team. How can you be playing for the same team and not see eye to eye?

As for Liverpool, I don't think I can come up with many reasons why they can't win the EPL. They've got quality players in Torres, Carragher and Gerrard. What I'm sure everyone notices is that they only try to win one competition every season, and it's not the EPL. All they play for every season in the EPL is the 4th place so they can qualify for their one-and-only Champions League competition and place all their focus on it.

So there you have it.. What I'm hoping now is Manchester United will win the EPL at Stamford Bridge and rub it into Abramovich's Cash Rich Chelsea's face. GO UNITED! :)
