Early Saturday kickoff
Utd away
Jose

This is practically unwinnable from an Arsenal point of view.

The real victory is cramming all our bogey things into one game.

I'm liking the gloss of this thread
I smell a Utd win...hopefully

Early rumour is Wayne Rooney will start.

It's the type of game Rooney will do well in on the back of the latest criticism about the booze etc

No matter how badly Utd are doing, they'll always beat Arsenal at home.

3-1.

Have Rashford to score anytime. Should be a good bet with Ibrahimovic and Rooney out

Wenger has respect because he's not a <CANT SAY NASTY THINGS ABOUT MANAGER ON BOARDS>

scudzilla

Just put 5 euro on United to win 5-2 with Mata to score first, juicy 900/1

Mourinho has the upperhand on Wenger tactically for sure.
Wenger has not won even once in 12 league meetings against him.
Could today be lucky 13? Hopefully but I think it will end in stalemate.

RobbingBandit

2-1 Rashford and Pogba both to score, Cech always seems to be up for it against us so hope he has a stinker of a game today.

I've just got a vision of Giroud coming on to score the winner. A beautiful vision.

Utd team looks good, pacey

Owryan

That Utd back line doesn't inspire confidence, but the rest of the team looks good.

Same could be said about Arsenal

Jones is a good player when he's fit. Rojo would be regarded as the weak link but he's been good the last few games albeit against poor opposition.

2 dodgy back lines, 2 decent teams going forward.......0-0 so

What the feck is going on with ss1? Why are they trying to make it look like Sky news?

It's embarrassing.

The whole Re-united thing is cringe also, doing there best to live on past glories of keane v vierra etc

Unearthly

It's probably a new initiative to get the ratings back by hyping the matches with a theme.

This ReUnited one though is awful

A Dub in Glasgo

That is the main reason I only switch the TV on when the game is kicking off - most of the intro is fairly shite

All this crap around the screen is really distracting. It absolutely sucks ass and should be dumped immediately
If I wanted to watch ssn I would do.

On the plus side that Warburtons ad with the Muppets was class!

It'll probably turn out to be a shyte game now and all. But I don't see why Sky feel so threatened this year as they won back most of the games from BT.

Wish sky would just try the opposite and have super **** Sunday. Bet more people would tune in.

LOL was going to post that myself.

Henry is just useless. Says he's always admired every player they mention including Rashford. Always must mean about 6 months in his mind so. Handballing, cheating, cheese eating, surrender monkey that he is.

Korat

Jose looks like he was out with Rooney last night.

dfx-

United to dog it out 1-0. I'm not expecting the game to be much better than that Moyes-Mourinho game in 2014(?)

Lord TSC

Would be nice if we didnt conceded a goal in the opening five minutes.

Rambo actually on the left. Hmm.

Good start

RobertKK

Decent start by United.

tayto lover

Very soft free there ref.

I thought Sanchez had put that header on target.

Mr.Micro

I will take a draw.

It sums up the work of Jose Mourinho in getting Man U to gently tell Mr B Charlton that he can kindly f*ck off!

I'm not even arguing with his appointment, i truly hope hope he stays on.

callaway92

Pogba looking sloppy and vulnerable so far imo, on and off the ball.

SlickRic

Has the makings of a good game this so far.

RobbingBandit

Phil Jones needs to wake the duck up. Good attacking play from United so far.

tayto lover

How was that not a booking for Mata. Very late clear trip.

Skylinehead

That's a blatant yellow
