united vs arsenal sun 13th....
predictions... discuss.
i personally think if we lose to arsenal that hands the title to chelski.
im gunning for a strong win and will be partaking in several alcoholic beverages during the course of the afternoon.

It'll probably be a bore 0-0 draw Dave, I can't see us spanking you.
The worst thing is I have to go out for the day
There had better be enough room on the Sky +, I hate watching a live game after the event, there's always the urge to hit FF>> especially if things dont go to plan.

Yes he has made the team play the most attractive football in Europe at times but where has that got us? No where as other managers have pointed out as well as other teams fans like on here.
Wenger needs to overhaul the team a lot to add experience and big names but everyone knows he wont so it will be more of the same next season unfortunately. He also needs to add players who are far more reliable than Van Persie and Rosicky who are great talents but too fragile for the hard tackling of the Premiership. Look what happened to Reyes, ran for the hills when he realised he couldn't hack the toughness of the Premiership.
I didn't see the game today but from what i've read/heard Adebeyor missed chance after chance. That's what happens when you don't have World class strikers in your squad. Most of the Arsenal team wouldn't get in the Man Utd or Chelsea first eleven because they aren't World class and aren't ever going to be World class. Wenger for some reason thinks these players are good enough to win trophies against World class squads and he has been proved wrong for 4 years now. How much longer is he going to take to realise things need to change?

A proper Old School Man U V Arsenal game, thoroughly enjoyed it 
Some great performances from some top players, enjoyed the performances of Rooney & especially Tevez, such strength on the ball to go along with his close control, Hleb, outstanding the entire game, an unsung hero at the **** IMO, Fabregas had his usual quality performance capped by a great run late in the 2nd half, as for Adebayour hot and cold again and nice use of the hand
To all the Gooner moaners, just think for one minute, you would not be living in one of the finest stadiums in the world with the healthy bank balance playing attractive football, if it wasn't for Wenger, you'd still be at a rotting Highbury playing Don Howe inspired ****e football under the likes of Rioch, Wenger has made Arsenal the brand they are today, you should be greatful for what he's done for your club.
B2Zero - you have won a cup in the last 4 years, I can understand why you can't remember it it was the FA Cup where you defended for an hour and a half before beating Utd on pens, as my gooner friends reminded me the history book will show Arsenal won, no one remembers a runner up, seems no one remembers the winners of that match either lol

Sky Sports | Football | Premier League | Arsenal | Wenger knew of youth risk 
As I thought, more of the same next season then. FM the fact remains we don't have a World class squad and as a supporter who expects my team to be beating Man Utd and Chelsea to titles then seeing the manager refusing to spend money is extremely frustrating. I'm afraid I am increasingly backing the ideas of David Dein and his consortium who believes Arsenal needs a lot of investment to make us true challengers to Chelsea and Man Utd's squads.

You've got to feel a bit for Arsenal. On Wednesday they outclass Liverpool, the best English team in Europe, and on Sunday they outclass the best team in England.
Yet they end up winning nothing.

Arsenals is a mental problem at the mo. Once they hit a tough patch in the game their heads go. no more so than Gallas.

I don't get this Arsenal outclassed United. Yes they were the better team first half but United were in the 2nd half. United had some great chances as did Arsenal. Rooney had 2 great opportunities.
