    Not a weak team at all IMO... Especially up front, Eduardo, Bendtner and Ade

    Traore/Hoyte/Gilberto(has turned to sh*t this year)/Eboue... and I don't know where you got the idea that Bendtner's good from. It's a fairly weak team and shouldn't provide United with too many problems.

    Love the way Fletcher gets so fired up for these big games! Works his heart out, brilliant stuff. It's the games where teams go to defend and United have to break down teams which lets Fletcher down I think. No complaints from me here.

    don't think so, Arsenal players don't really look bothered,when we loose the ball, no one is bothered trying to win it back, man utd are well up for the match, very obvious to me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    Unreal stuff. I had my reservations when I saw the midfield, but feckin' hell they've all played blinders. Fletcher and Anderson in particular in that midfield have been outstanding and Rooney up top has shown why all of United's defeats have come with him not in the team.

    Anderson = God :D

    Not at all. The Arsenal players are playing like they couldn't give a **** :mad:

    Arsenal have no midfield, I wonder why Wenger played Cesc, he must still be feeling ill, there is no other explanation for this performance.

    Credit to United though, they are absolutely steamrolling the Arsenal midfield and defence. The five midfield players are interchanging all over the place, and Arsenal can't cope with it. The Beeb are riding Wayne Rooney at ht, but for me Anderson and Fletcher are the men today. Brown is not playing well for United.

    Up front, Arsenal have nothing because the midfield is crap.

    This game is over.

    Darren Fletcher does this.

    He is out of a team for ages comes in an has a wonder performance, Roma last year and Chelsea the year before.

    Nani is doing so so well.

    Rooney is playing great but not as well as the BBC Pro-English propaganda would make out. Hes missed 2 chances but you would swear Motty thinks hes scored 5.

    Anderson is fast becoming my favourite United player. He is just brilliant.

    Agree with everything you say.

    Fletcher is a shining example to all 'squad' players today (and to be honest has been in the past too)...100% determination and drive...really enjoying his performance:)

    Michael Carrick is a phenomenal passer of the ball tbh, that ball he just put out to Park was unreal, and Rooney should have scored.

    Nani got clattered, free kick at the box

    Not because he was being embarrsed at 0-3 and felt the need to try and injure the smallest guy on the pitch.
