Manchester United vs Arsenal

ninja_alan · 13th April 2008, 11:13

I actually feel fairly confident ahead of this match. 3-0 Ronaldo x2 & Rooney to score.

lorcanjc · 13th April 2008, 11:19

I'm nervous as fuck!!!

Raven_Blade · 13th April 2008, 11:19

Im starting to feel some pressure now. Some people think that we are gonna get it fairly easy in this game. At this stage of the season there are no easy games.

Fergies Formula · 13th April 2008, 11:30

this is by no means easy, but it is our game for the taking if we play well, arsenal have got a shaky defence, which if we pressure will crumble, we are more fresh having being able to rest our top players, we are a better team, we have a more experienced side and we have the home advantage, all these factors point in our favour, but when it comes to game time anything can happen, so they need to go out there and prove all this. This game is HUGE, a win and as i said before the title really is ours to lose

IhabX7 · 13th April 2008, 11:31

This is fucking Arsenal, it can't be predicted as easy. I hope it turns out to be though.

Come on United!

We simply must win. I don't think we should be going to Stamford Bridge with anything less than a 3 point buffer.

Yea we should afford to lose at Stamford Bridge, because it might actually happen. But having said that, Im comfident that Chelsea will drop a couple of points over the next two games against Wigan at Home and at Everton. But this game is huge because we wouldnt want to rely on other teams' results and to give Chelsea any motivation, and to kill off Arsenal completely.

The thing is if we play to our optimum, it doesn't really matter what Arsenal do. They're not as good as us, it's that simple.

Agreed.

Crustanoid · 13th April 2008, 11:47

Apart from the 4-0 Arse have a good record against us recently. This won't be the walk in the park some peope think it will be.

Fergies Formula · 13th April 2008, 12:11

Nani isnt in the Squad

Veron · 13th April 2008, 12:26

Fucck it was Nani who ripped them to shreds last time around.

Looks like we've been 'Offshored!'.

Yeah. But Ronaldo didn't play. Decent replacement I'd say.

Fergies Formula · 13th April 2008, 12:30

Would have been nice to have them both though

Vidicious · 13th April 2008, 12:31

This and the Blackburn game determine our season. We must win.

Raven_Blade · 13th April 2008, 13:02

Im loving the Sky Sports Godfather style compilation about Fergie and Wenger.

No chance mate. It'll be all or nowt at scumford bridge. We'll need to draw it.

I think Fergie said that Nani was on his way back but he wasn't going to be ready for Arsenal in the press conference. Wouldn't mind seeing Ronaldo on the left and Park on the right though.

Fergies Formula · 13th April 2008, 13:27

wouldnt mind seeing anderson given as go a forward rather than an attacking midfielder, then we could go with an all english 3 in the middle, however i highly doubt it as he hasnt ever played the role for us so i doubt fergie would go with an untried system. Im sure ferie will pick the right team today to do the job

As a forward? He needs to convince us that he can score goals first.

Id just like to see him given more freedom further up the pitch, where i feel he can utilize his shinning assets best and cause a lot of damage, his explosive pace, abiloty to dribble round a man, thread kiler balls, giggs hasnt scored many goals this season, i think 2, yet we use him as a forward, i think anderson deserves a shot further up with freedom to express what he does naturally
