Manchester United v Arsenal

Fabiański is apparently injured and Szczęsny is set to start. That's not a good news at all as IMO Arsenal's no 3 is better than Flappyhandsky

Well it good news really, seeing as the goal-keeping coaches at Arsenal made him number 3 for a reason and I would trust their opinion on the relative talents of the two PIGS over yours`.

not really,

hes much more confident than Fabiański, commands his back line better and his aerial ability is spot on.

tbh - im glad he will be given a chance to play in a such important game. it will be a real test for him.

What do you mean, "not really"?

Are you seriously claiming your judgement on this kid (after watching, what, two games?) should be taken more seriously than that of the goal-keeping coaches at Arsenal?
 
Don't know if it's already been posted but

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's long and distinguished service to United will be acknowledged at Old Trafford tonight, at the last home match before he leaves for pastures new in Norway.

The former Reds striker and outgoing Reserves coach will start work as manager of Molde in January, so the Arsenal match is considered an ideal opportunity for the club and United supporters to say a fond farewell as his 14-year stay draws to a close.

A special presentation will be made to Solskjaer around 15 minutes before kick-off and fans attending the game are advised accordingly - please take your seats early and help give the Treble-winning legend the send-off he deserves.

From what i gather he made a huge impression during his time on loan at Brentford and really showed what he's capable of. So far i've seen very little of him but i've only heard good things from managers and others that have spoke about him. This was a quote from the Brentford boss.

"His performances suggest that he would not be out of place in the Championship or even the Premier League. It has reached the stage where when he lets in a goal we wonder why he hasn’t saved it."

It's less reliable than our predictions.

That's a prediction made by Eurosport journalist, just. And it's there only because it's their journalist.
 
If that is our team, I'll be so happy. I'd say that's our best team and it suits playing Arsenal in both defensive and attacking areas. Park excels in these games. The pace and drive of Nani, Park and Anderson and the partnership of Rooney and Berbatov.

V Excited.
 
From a Polish website.

In a text message from Polish journalist Robert Błoński with a question "Will you play against United?" Szczęsny answers: "Yes, and I quite like it".

It seems to be confirmed.

Similar, but still not the same as now.

Interesting fact, Kuszczak made his league debut against Arsenal, saved a penalty, but his team lost 0-1. Would you mind the same tonight, but in a different role from a different Pole?

I'd say no. I'm pretty sure we can get out more of tonight's game and we are able to win by more than only one goal.

:lol: I'm sorry Maciek, but that's one of the most ridiculous things I've read on here.

"You're guaranteed 3 points, do you take them or risk losing them all at the chance of getting... Well, also 3 points, but more goals!"
 
Yes Top, I've said so, because I haven't that kind of choice. I just can't wait for this game and I feel really confident about our team.

I'm sure I'd take 1-0 tonight, if it really was down to me.
 
For some reason I'm feeling really confident about tonight. Got a feeling we'll turn them over, based on absolutely nothing. Just put a quid on Rooney 3-0 @60/1.

If we win this then we're completely in the driving seat for this league. Who'd of thunk it a month or so ago?
 
DTguardian Early rumour from Old Trafford - with the emphasis on 'rumour' - that Paul Scholes might be struggling to make it
 
If, when I'm listening to the radio on my way home form work they carp on about how wonderful Arse are & having orgasms over Nasri while almost ignoring the fact that there are 2 teams playing tonight & one of them is unbeaten and will go top if they win tonight despite that fact that they all think we're crap...I'll...I'll...I'll...I'll put Radio 4 on actually, there's always a funny program on about 6.30...
 
I'd be surprised if we don't play 3 in midfield, the argument always was that Berbatov wasn't dropped for these games he was simply left out because tactically we need 3 in midfield.
