Amazing.Who would have thought we would see Everton doing their darndest to give Arsenal a Championship place.
When I first heard of the word Arsenal,it followed another word,"lucky".
Yes ,"lucky Arsenal", and I was just a kid in the 1950's.Must admit,over the years since,it certainly fits them.....
 
"I hope we get 5th"

Spurs have the Spanners away, then Villa at home.
Everton have Citeh at home, then Hull away.

Their GD is worth an extra point though.

My old Granddad always said 'lucky old Arsenal' He lived in Ardleigh Rd so far closer to Highbury than White Hart Lane, but when he moved there the goons were still down in Woolwich.
 
That Man Utd penalty was ridiculously soft. The ref would've been crucified if he'd given that the other way.
Moyes must be fuming that Fergie didn't give him his phone book on the way out. Saved it for the Sister-in-law shagger.
 
Robbie "Man Utd Youth Player" Savage thinks that it was a definite penalty and a red card. I'm shocked.
 
ManU fans on 606 are saying that the play under Giggs was no better than under Moyes,just papering over the cracks

The pundits on TalkShite are absolutely creaming their pants over Giggs first game in charge, with that utter twat, Mark Saggers, leading the chorus. Among all the praise, not one of these idiots has pointed out the very simple fact that United beat the mighty Norwich, and game that even Moyes would probably have won, even with all the knives in his back from all the players.

God! I hope the Glazers do a "Levy" and go for the cheap-skate option by appointed Giggs. I'll be straight down the bookies to put a wager on that he'll be sacked by the January transfer window.
 
No fool would reach conclusions about a manager and his team after one game (unless you're Chelsea), but there were signs in the attitude and performance of the Utd players - particularly in the second half - which suggested they were playing for Giggs, but hadn't been for Moyes. They played like Utd - higher tempo, players coming forward in numbers and getting ahead of the ball, pressing the opposition back, slicker passing, looking to shoot more often, more desire to win the ball back......why haven't they been doing this for the past few months? They would have beaten many better teams than Norwich yesterday.
 
Like Spurs, the Man Utd players showing what players do when they are objectively
professional and don't behave like spoilt brats about managers etc.
