Citys game has been called off.
He also said we should continue to do the right things. Would have been more inspired if he said start.
Come on lets do those cnuts, I want to see some crunching tackles tonight!
Its too windy for 80+ crosses tonight. Let's hope we keep the ball on deck and play some good fast counter attacking football
Have a feeling Welbeck will start.
He genuinely thinks there's nothing really wrong with what we're doing. It's obvious at this stage. Frustrating as hell.
United XI: De Gea, Rafael, Smalling, Vidic, Evra; Valencia, Cleverley, Carrick, Mata; Rooney, van Persie

Yessss. Valencia!
Valencia, of course. Oh well.
Interesting. So Mata on the left then?

No surprises there.
Always with the Valencia or Young. Will Januzaj ever start again?

Yawn. We'll come to life whenever we bring on Adnan. Nice to see Fellaini on the bench but surpirsed with no Jones considering Moyes said he had a chance of being back against Fulham.
Just needed Januzaj instead of Tony and that would have been perfect.
Fellaini on the bench.
Mata out wide again. Commence more crossing.
#Arsenal team to play Man United: Szczesny, Sagna, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Gibbs, Arteta, Wilshere, Rosicky, Ozil, Cazorla, Giroud
Valencia
On a serious note, Jones still injured? Would have liked to see him in midfield. Decent lineup other than that. 1 of Young or Valencia had to be picked so not too fussed who gets the nod, both are pretty useless anyways.

No Adnan these days is really frying my head. Fcking hell.
Valencia starts? Called it. It's going to be a long night.
To be honest, Arsenal's side isn't one that'd strike fear into me. They're in noway superior to us, on paper anyway.
Yay. With Tony instead of pointless floaty crosses we will just make pointless smashed crosses.
Feel sorry for their leftback.

Kagawa injured?
And on second thoughts, I'd have preferred Young as I think Mata would be better tucked in from the right than the left.

This was always going to happen when we bought Mata. The famed quartet everybody wants was never going to transpire with any regularity any time soon.
Only surprise is Cleverley really. Hope that is more of a 4-2-3-1 with Rooney on the left and Mata in the middle. No Fletcher on the bench, a little disappointing. We could have used someone like him. No Kagawa as well, writing on the wall for him.
Januzaj better start getting games again after today though, I can understand being a bit defensive here but no need to leave out our best performing player just because he's 18.

Should have been Fletcher+Carrick or Fletcher+Cleverley. Carrick + Cleverley midfield will get bypassed all night long.
Valencia to track back on bug eyes maybe?
Getting a rest didn't you hear.
And,ofcourse kagawa dont even makes the bench.
I'm confident we can sneak this one.
Honestly i think Moyes appointment was spot on... if it was bring down our expectations!
Honestly believe a draw is the best we can hope for after seeing that team (a team with RvP, Rooney and Mata ffs)

Valencia and Cleverley starting.
I remember that game two seasons or so ago, when Valencia tore Arsenal a new one at the Emirates and scored a header in a 1-2 win.
That player is long gone, though.

Shocking isn't it. Feel for the guy, and hope he does well at his next club.
No....NO!!! what the feck kind of a midfield is this? Cleverley? Valencia? Mata out wide? They are going to destroy us...Where is Janujaz? Why force Mata on the wing? Where is Shinji? Oh David
I can live with it even though I'd prefer Januzaj over Valencia from the start.
