a/ Chelsea dont have a lot of class about how they act on or off the field.

Gallas summed it up best after chelsea talked trash about him by saying simply 'all that money, and still, no class'.
b/ Man Utd (and Arsenal) still play immeasurably better football. Look at the goal differences.

I think you're overlooking the main point for people supporting Man U in this title race.
c/ Chelsea have run away with the title for the past 2 seasons without too much competition. This season, Man U are giving them some good competition which makes the title race more interesting. Besides, a team winning the competition 3 seasons in a row does get boring, so others support their main opposition.
