Arsenal vs Man Utd ECL 2nd Leg
Quite frankly I'm sitting here at work and can't think of anything else, butterflies building already.
To coin a phrase, this is a massive massive game. I'm sure the Gooners feel the same. Always a great contest against our biggest challengers of the past 13 years.
I expect the heart rate to be quite high
I'm not going to predict anything.....
Enjoy, Gooners and Mancs

Here's hoping for a 5-3 win for Arsenal.
Mind you - will settle for 1-0 and pens (provided Arsenal win).
Should be fun whatever
.
And he're hoping whoever wins tonight goes on to win the cup

Could go to extra time and pens though. And that would mean
God knows!Should be a good game.

I'm nervous about this game as well. Should have killed them off in the 1st leg and like a wounded animal I think Arsenal will be at their most dangerous now knowing what they have to do. I just hope United aren't caught in two minds and try play their own game as if they do I'm relatively confident there's a goal in the United team. the 1st goal is always important but it's massive tonight!

Always find time to josh with the Mancs.
I heard SAF on R5 earlier that he wishes his team was as successfull as Liverpool. Something about lacking history.

Well, this match is the match where we really get to see if Wenger has been right all this time. Is this young side about to become men? are they actually as good as us gooners hope, and as good as wenger thinks?
Enough of the talk now Arsene, too many big games have come and gone without a performance we think they are capable of. The time is now, tonight.
It could be a great day for Arsenal and the future, or it could all be another year of 'development and progression'.
I've not looked forward to a game like this for a long time. There is a lot riding on this for Wenger.

Yep - tonight is the night all the talk of development this, you players that needs to stop and we need a result.
After the escape last week with a 1-0 I'm reasonably confident of progressing to the final
UP THE ****

The main question is can we stop Man U scoring. after watching last game and seeing how quickly you break, i sadly dont think we can stop you.
Is Ade going to turn up and earn his money? will Cesc be out done by Anderson?
Im so nervous that i cant concentrate, games like this only happen maybe once a year.
I really hope we dont have any dodgey descions or stupid dives that cost the game from either team. Just want footy to be the winner tonight and no stupid arguements after over a dodgey penalty.
Good luck mancs
Come on you Gunners

Anyway, make sure you take one of these plastic flags to the game tomorrow Paul.
And let's hope that too many scenes like this
Aren't followed by one of these
Or we could end up with this

I think Fergie has handed the initiative to Arsenal picking Park. He's a good worker but we're relying on Rooney and Ronaldo to do the biz up front. Dare I say it it's a Liverpool like line up with Park = Kuyt

Bad decision by the ref was a great tackle by Fletcher. Wonder if Wenger has managed to see just how a top team plays or if he has failed to see this as well. Get rid of Adebeyor, Bendtner, Van Persie and get a new attacking line up. Tevez is on the bench and has more skill in his little toe than the 3 Arsenal attackers put together

Poor decision from the ref there but i suppose it's easy for us to say seeing slow motion replays. I just feel sorry for Fletcher, i think he's been great again this season and improved once again as he does every year. He must be gutted

oh well - one half of my prediction was right 
.
Shame for Fletcher.
here's hoping for a Uniched v Chelski final - Keep up the English teams only being able to knock English teams out of the competition

Agreed a shame for Fletch, looked a foul to me though.
They mentioned on Aus TV that the Standard reported United had tabled a 60m bid for Ribery to replace Ronaldo who they expect to leave for Real !!!
Another all English final please
Well done lads
