    The MIGHTY Gunners, fresh from their mid-week terrifying ordeal against Udinese which literally had me on the edge of my seat, take on the seemingly unstoppable Man Utd. After rolling to their 19th title, despite appearing below par for most of the season, the Reds have kicked off this season in great form, trouncing Tottenham (hooray!!) and proving that youth works.

    May predicted line-up for Arsenal:

    ....................Chesney
    Jenkinson Vermaelen Djourou Sagna
    ...................Koscielny
    ..............Ramsey Rosicky
    ..........Walcott RvP Arshavin

    Traore may be fit enough to start at LB, in which case Jenkinson will be benched, and Sagna will play RB

    What is the anticipated Man Utd lineup? Score predictions? Thoughts on the game?!

    I'm going 1-2 Arsenal, because I'm an eternal optimist!! However, if you always look on the bright side, eventually you go blind.

    Liverpool are know as the Reds, UTD are the Red Devils :)

    With all your injured/banned players, I cant see Arsenal doing anything but make up the numbers.

    2-0 UTD

    3-1 United, I think Arsenal may just grab a goal, probably from a free kick, but will be outplayed for much of the game.

    Arsenal have the following players out injured:

    Kieran Gibbs
    Jack Wilshere
    Laurent Koscielny
    Sebastien Squillaci
    Abou Diaby

    Also Alex Song and Gervinho are suspended and there are reports Vermaelen may be injured. This should be confirmed or denied by Wenger at his press conference. If Vermaelen is out, Utd should be winning easily in my opinion. 3-0 to Utd. :grin:

    Look....if we can beat Arsenal with a midfield consisting of 3 defenders and one of our worst players then make no mistake.........

    We will win on Sunday barring a miracle.

    Though at 11/2 for an Arsenal win, the betting men might fancy a bet on the gunners.

    The same thread has been posted on the Arsenal board and you are more than welcome to post on it <ok>
    Both the Arsenal & Man Utd mods decided that it was best not to have a multi-board thread so the mods can control it on their own board <ok>
