Defender Chris Smalling continues to make good progress in training in his recovery from a broken metatarsal, but the game at Old Trafford will come too soon. Fellow centre-back Phil Jones (knee) is also not quite ready, while another defender, Nemanja Vidic (knee), and midfielder Shinji Kagawa (knee) remain sidelined. Striker Robin van Persie is set to face his old club. Player to Watch Robin van Persie No explanation needed! Team News Arsenal England midfielder Jack Wilshere and full-back Bacary Sagna are both likely to be in contention, but forward Theo Walcott - whose hat-trick helped the Gunners comeback from 4-0 down to win 7-5 - may be back on the bench after playing all 120 minutes at the Madejski Stadium. Midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (hip) faces a fitness test, but winger Gervinho (ankle) will be out for around three weeks, while defender Kieran Gibbs (thigh), first-choice goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny (ankle), midfielder Abou Diaby (thigh) and Czech winger Tomas Rosicky (hamstring) all continue their rehabilitation. Player to Watch Jack Wilshire The young England international will be key if Arsenal are to get anything from the game. [video=youtube;JMIJs3nGddI]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMIJs3nGddI[/video]
Im usually wary about predictions, even against teams near the bottom. But I don't see anything other than a United win tomorrow. We'll just end up outscoring them.
With the way we are playing its likely we will out score them. You are one negative bastard. This is a side who conceded 5 against Reading ffs.
One negative bastard Shwan. Have some ****ing faith. Everton and Spurs are the exception rather than the rule.
You dont have to expect the worst at all. Thats just a negative outlook. Of course we are going to lose games we shouldnt but being United we should win most games so of course its a surprise when a Blackburn, Fulham or City ( ) beat us. These lesser sides ( no offence to the first 2 ) should be 3 pointers everytime but that would be boring. Still doesnt mean we should expect failure.
Best attack in the league against (statistically) the best defence in the league. You can't defend, we can't score. This is going to be boring, but if anyone does win, it'll probably be you.
We will most likely win, using counter attacking football. I really believe Arsenal struggle against teams with fast lethal counter attacking football. No doubt they will be passing it about in our half doing not much at all and we will break and score. I actually like to watch Arsenal play because they can embarrass teams with the way they play, but when they come up against a stubborn defence they have no plan b. It suits us because we break so fast and they can't handle it.
I am hoping that RVP gets some revenge if he is abused by the Arsenal fans (which is very likely). We are always likely to concede so I would go for 4-2 (with RVP scoring a brace)
That is NOTpossible if you support United. I expect and enjoy it especially from the ******ed scousers who shows their envy at every turn
Mike Dean. I'm surprised SAF still allows him to ref Utd after this: please log in to view this image After all, everyone "knows" SAF bans all referees who give any decisions against Utd...
He would need to. Remember what happened to those refs who reffed the chelsea defeats in europe? one had leave after death threats and the other was demoted after failing to give the chavs some pens. Poor poor sportsmanship. Any ref making a mistake against the chavs will suffer the consequences .
