Could be a good day, had a few bets today on sensible and stupid results regarding sky's super6 and of course today's game. Have a limit of £25 and after my £2 here and £2 there I had £3 left so went to the next available horse race at Sandown and banged it on 'Skint' at 8-1, only won in a photo finish

Now Vidic to score first and United to win 4-1 @500-1

Just to add I did place some more realistic bets

What i think is our problem is no Walcott, he hasn't got the greatest crossing ability and half the time he over takes the ball but him running down the line gets the other players busting a gut to get in the box. When he's not playing the build ups to slow and goes from one side to the other.

Diaby slows the pace of attacks down to much, Denilson can't manage a 5 yard pass. I'd rather Bendtner play on the wing and have nasri in the middle.

It's all falling apart like previous seasons, a big centre back is needed to play along side Vermaelen and a striker that will get in the box. But it won't happen as Wenger doesn't want to upset the current team players, what a philosophy that is!.

Your problem is no one is willing to have a go. Some excellent posession and build up play but its almost like all your players (with the exception of RVP) get to the edge of the utd area and have to lay the ball off or play some insane through ball. No one wants to just have a crack.

Arsenal don't do holidays, but if they did, they'd probably be the worst 2 weeks in the world

Maybe Wenger will start spending/be allowed to spend on players when/if the Emirates ever gets paid for.

Yep, Arsey Whinger has finally listened to those saying he needs to buy some experience, as well as just kids.
Though not sure that's what most pundits had in mind!

I think Wenger puts a lot of pressure on himself and allows the team to see it and he transfers his pressure on to the team. They looked fooked at the end of that game physically and mentally, except the exceptional Wilshere.

As a United fan of course I want them to struggle as they are a massive threat to our falling over the line to nick No19

So's Edwin, nearly I'd gladly have him between the sticks for another season.

I feel your pain and totally understand where you're coming from.
