Ridng on a crucial and comfortable away win against FC Schalke at Veltins-Arena ,United are on course to another dream final at Wembley after losing to bitter neighbouring rivals City in FA cup semi final at Wembley a week ago. With only a miracle and United's complacency which can cause a real upset along with Raul can only land Schalke into a dream Wembley final which seems more and more unlikely.
Now Sir Alex Ferguson the old fox's vision have fallen on two most crucial premier League matches which could provide a ray of hope to Arsenal and most importantly to Chelsea in their pursuit of defending their Barclays Premier League crown after there recent surge following an unlikely long poor run in games after an explosive start to the season.
So United face two challenges before heading to the UEFA champions league final and its not Schalke which stands against them in either of the matches. Its Arsenal at Emirates and Chelsea at Old Trafford. These two games can wrap up the title for them or open up the wrapper for grabs for Chelsea and Arsenal too.
These two fixtures have come as finals before the actual Champions League final Man United play at Wembley if they can see of Schalke at their home turf in the 2nd leg tie. The defeat against neighbouring rivals City may have come as a blessing in disguise as challenging on all three fronts might have takeln a toll on the Man United squad or may have costed them more important matches in Champions League or record 19th Premier League title pursuit.
Seeing of Arsenal and Chelsea will be like coming up against two back to back finals with Chelsea still having fresh wounds of their Champions league defeat from the hands of their English rivals in both the ties. It might be the most of the opportunity for Carlo Ancelotti to make up with the Premier League crown to quench Blues owner Roman Abramovich's Champions League obsession and make up a case to save his job at the Bridge which also seems unlikely.

Ancelotti and Wenger are themselves to be blamed for their clubs poor performance. I am not a fan of Man Utd but at Wembley things are going to be different ;-)
