Manchester still won the league after this game
*I don't know if it is too early to post a thread for this game but I've done it.

 

[Arnau]

what a match, will cesc play or he is still injured?

 

[MaestroZidane]

Will be an interesting game to have so early in the season. Arsenal seem to be on the right track while ManU can go either way at the moment.



Curious to know as to why that video is labeled "the best goal ever"

 

[Siawash]

This is pretty early in the season but I say 2-1 Manyoo.

 

[Bobby]

We have to play Celtic first!

 

[MaSsiVe]

should be a good one indeed...Arse FTW on this one.

2-3
Rooney x2
Arshavin x3

 

[ARIAGA II]

We have to play Celtic first!

Well United don't so...
but I don't think the Celtic game is a done deal so it's not like I'm being arrogant.

Curious to know as to why that video is labeled "the best goal ever"

It's not but it was kind of amazing how he got past Ferdinand and Vidic. Oh and this is his best goal ever



Good times ! (once again United won the league that season )

 

[MaestroZidane]

We have to play Celtic first!

No offense to celtic fans, but there is no need to worry there Bobby. Celtic are not the best at winning away during a CL night, let alone beating arsenal on the road.

 

[kp41]

2-0 United.

by the way, can you add a poll?

We have to play Celtic first!

Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!!! Good one..............

Quite honestly, an Arsenal B team could make a handful of schoolboy mistanes and STILL prevent Celtic from scoring.....

[kp41]

these days they have more respect for each other, still matches are interesting.

 

[newbie original]

Yeah, cause the protagonists are missing....Keown, Viera, Parlour, Keane, Ashley Cole, Ronaldo, Cygan. In comparison to Viera, Fabregas(as the captain) has no spine and neither does Van Persie. None of the Arsenal players bring that intimidating presence to the field the way that Wenger's teams from the early 2000s did.

 

[Siawash]

Arsenal intimidating? Ha.

 

[Mandieta6]

Dunno what result I'd prefer right now, it's too early in the season.

 

[Gunnersgoal22]

I'm almost afraid of how much the press will hype up Arsenal if they win. It shows how fickle most of them are when just four games ago they were writing us off.

 

[kp41]

Dunno what result I'd prefer right now, it's too early in the season.

don't worry United will win 100 percent.

 

[ARIAGA II]

I kind of miss those times, the games where so legendary and we used to win things then . I don't know about anyone else but I still think this is the best game in the Premiership for neutrals. Unfortunately we won't have Walcott to rip Evra up.

 

[newbie original]

I agree man. I enjoy Arsenal-ManU.....when I'm able to watch it.

 

[ARIAGA II]

Are you ready? RVP starts as captain,Mike Dean is match captain.
