Nani generally performs well against arsenal. Just saying...

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.
Having read the Arsenal Mania build up thread, I think I actually prefer this one simply because I don't feel like slitting my wrists. I'll leave that til full time.
It's definitely one of those where if Fergie picks the line-up we mostly seem to want, I'll feel pretty confident, but if he goes with a Scholes and Carrick in the middle, or any two-man midfield really, then I can't see us getting much from the game.
Surely even Fergie can't
the fact that Ando and Cleverley need to be starting this. They're both in such good form.

Ando was pretty wrecked after the CC game, dont think he can start this. I hope Clev does though. Wouldnt fancy Carrick and Scholes vs the Arsenal trio. Even then though, we should have too much in the other areas. Am strangely confident about this seeing as its a big game, think we'l win even if its Scholes and Carrick in a middle 2.
Linekar just tweeted that there was no sign of RVP as they boarded the coach
Sounds like the opposite to RAWK then? Full of realists and pessimists as opposed to RAWK's disturbingly delusional psycho fans.
“@GaryLineker: Just saw the Manchester United players board the coach, but no sign of Robin Van Persie. Left out or travelling with Arsenal team?”
Injured? fecking hell.
You should have read the Reading thread in the week. More people were moaning about the defensive display than actually celebrating how we'd turned it around.
Fair play. Prefer that to fans who think their team is full of world beaters and are only being held down by a conspiracy.
Sure Lineker is just shit-stirring again.
FYI, Van Persie is travelling. Gary Lineker is trolling. Dont get your knickers in a twist. Relax
Yeah, Shreeves said he just saw RVP arrive.
He's a bellend that Lineker.
Uneasy about this one, feel Arsenal are due one at our place.
Lineker is a shit stirrer.
I agree, he can't stir at all.
I feel confident about this one.
Unusually for me I dreamt about the game last night - twice in fact, and we lost both times; the second result was a hammering where their keeper scored a header.
No longer looking forward to this one

Wouldn't mention but there is rumours around the ground etc from reds on twitter that RVP won't play. Might be a load of shite.

It is. Read above, GaryLineker started spreading that rumour which was false as RVP was later shown to be at Old Trafford.
Very happy with that team.
Don't think many got a lot of wrong in predicting that line-up
