In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
It wasn't though. He tired towards the end but in the main he was superb.
Yep. Would love to have come on here and heard about us being sublime. That would clearly be our first choice, always. But feeling sorry for those a-holes? I think not.
Fletcher did not do much wrong mate...every match, he is evolving into Keano...without the temper though
I know my shit
Great end to the match. Enjoyed that match. Wenger 
Man United's Wayne Rooney: "Our record last season against the big teams wasn't great and Arsenal have started the season well while we've lost already, so we needed to win today. I thought Darren Fletcher was head and shoulders above everyone else on the pitch today."
Well.....today we played alright and if we played another ten games exactly like that we'll win nine of 'em
Glad its now in August and we can put it behind us.
We'll see if we're in the mix by how we react to this undeserved defeat
Fletcher didn't give the ball away as much as the entire team put together. He gave away the ball in the last 10 minutes when he was tired, he needs extra support in the midfield.
That was a Keane like performance .
i agree. he knew what he was looking for.
We were lucky. arse look very good early in the season
He really needed Scholes next to him did'nt he? what the feck is wrong with Carrick though?
Exactly, I'm not saying we deserved the win because in the main we were poor but by god do we deserve a bit of luck for once.
Can't remember the last time a big game was settled in our favour by an own goal.
Will I take it ? course I will.
Oh please go feck yourself.
Your the biggest high horse nutter around.
Clear dive.
What I love about him. Very honest. Could not have said what he said about Fletcher any better.
fletcher was on a fecking mission to kill some gooners today....... well done!! fantastic performance by the lad!
Rooney never dove
Resident gooner reaction is enjoyable too
I haven't looked at the peno incident again but it sure looked like Rooney's knees were starting to bend before he came close to Almunia, but like I said I have not seen it again.
Carrick's passing has always been a bit hit or miss. To be honest, I really do think we're missing a quality attacking midfielder. Been saying it for ages.

Second time in a week your eyesight has been shown to be lacking.
Watch it again, the keeper took him out and got nowhere near the ball.
Penalty.
It can be debatable, I am waiting to here what Wenger will have said. But please, if you leave in a glass house, don't start throwing fecking stones.
Within three days, Arsenal have managed to produce two dive of the season contestants. I don't think anybody can match Eboue's dive honestly
It can only be a dive if there is NO contact. Rooney did what any good striker does, get a toe on the ball and let the GK clatter into him.
You clearly don't understand the game. My guess is you come from a non footballing nation, like Australia.

OMFG shut the feck up according to Eduardo diving weekly, if hte player is going down before he is touched its a fecken dive. Rooney was, its a dive.
Spot on.
Almunia fouled him, whether he went down or not it would still be a penalty.
Piss off you bitter cnut.
Yes, you are probably right, i think the last 15 minutes of emotions were over coming me. Fletch was brilliant today. Some stray balls near the end but he ran his socks off today. Well done lad!
That was an odd game for two top sides, it showed that Arsenal is a very good side mind.
Mr Wenger, great contribution.
Mr Wenger, great contribution.
if you want to see a dive watch ebue
That could be said to every United fan on this forum.
your challenge will be the squad...I said that elsewhere. Once the injuries start piling up...and it does for all teams in several competitions, the quality of the squad will tell.
Brilliant retort ...
That you need your eyes testing.
