Arsenal v Manchester United

1850: Vic texts in claiming that the Manchester United bus is stuck in traffic outside the Emirates Stadium. Probably not true...
 
Park for Tevez makes this look a bit catious. But its not really a big difference.
 
I think on big match days, non-members should be banned from accessing the main forums.

Looks like a 4-5-1 with Rooney up top..Park to run around and take care of 3 players (1 lung for each)
 
Happy with that. Really fortifying our flanks with Park and Rooney. Ronnie up front alone will always worry them. Only thing we'll miss is Tevez defending from the front.

Could always bring on some firepower later on if needed.
 
Arsenal will score early on.

We'll all go mental.

Arsenal will score again.

We'll all go even more mental.

Tevez, Giggs and Berbatov will all come on.

We'll score late to get 2-1 and go through on away goals.
 
This seems a team more determined to protect the goal lead than get the vital away goal...
 
Would have liked to see Tevez start but it seems SAF is going for a little more of a defensive line up with Park tracking back
 
ando doing what hargreaves did last season .. only on the left
4-4-2 in attack , moves central and it becomes 4-5-1 at other times



or could it be ronaldo on the wings and anderson as the support striker


sagna- toure -djourou - gibbs
walcott - song - cesc-nasri
------veepee -- adebayor

strong side that
defense clearly the weakest link tho
 
Gutted for Tevez, he deserved to start.

Also would have liked to keep Rooney on the left, he's been sensational there imo.

Glad the midfield trio all keep their places though.
 
Happy with that. Just glad Rooney and Rio are playing to be honest.
 
Arsenal will score early on.

We'll all go mental.

Arsenal will score again.

We'll all go even more mental.

Tevez, Giggs and Berbatov will all come on.

We'll score late to get 2-1 and go through on away goals.

Can't we just go up 2-0? I'd rather not go through that.
 
Arsenal going for broke. We'll be looking to keep it goaless as long as possible and sneak something on the break from the looks of it.

That first goal for us is so fecking crucial.:devil:
 
We won't start Berbatov, Ronaldo will play through the middle again, with Park and Rooney on the flanks. Giggs and Tevez could well start, too, but I reckon this'll be the lineup:

VDS

O'Shea
Rio
Vidic
Evra

Fletcher
Carrick
Anderson

Park
Ronaldo
Rooney
*smug*

Ronaldo will spend most of the match playing through the middle as well because of his aerial prowess.
 
Personally I would have started Tevez but I can see why SAF opted not to start him with Rooney. If the two of them got booked, they'd both miss the final and that's a big no-no, you need at least one of them available for the final should we get there. Oh well, here we go.

COME feckING ON UNITED!!!! :devil:
