    Arsenal well on top - United have been terrible so far.

    Rooney is so crap at finishing.

    Man U have been terrible during this first half, Scholes is a passenger, Anderson should be introduced for the 2nd half. Arsenal's finishing has been dire, they should really be atleast 2 goals ahead.

    Fast game, good saves from Lehman.

    It's like watching last seasons game at OT again. Getting played off the park.

    Need changes badly


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 340 ✭✭Trizo


    i think the most annoying thing for me has been the passing - all over the place giving the ball away out of defense and silly mistakes. Adebayor could have scored twice as could have rooney. Scholes has not had a good game.

    Shocked at how bad our mid-field is today.

    Where is Paul Scholes?

    dunno if i would put it all down to Scholes. he's not been great, but i think it's more the system United are playing. the middle 3 are very compact, but the wide men are far too advanced, Arsenal are really exploiting the space between the two blocks very well.

    have to say, even though they've dominated i can't see Arsenal getting anything from this game. they had the chances and blew it, i don't think we'll see them dominate to the same extent in the next 45. Ferguson will patch up United's holes surely.

    poor Song. he's scared ****less playing against Rooney, constantly asking the others for advice. in fairness to him though despite the errors he does look like he has the potential to be a good CB. he's strong, quick and reasonably composed on the ball. but not for today...

    First half stats:

    Man U Arsenal
    Shots 8 8

    Shots on target 3 3

    Bookings Brown Van Persie


    From the BBC
    1658: "Somebody needs to tell Wes Brown that Man U are playing in red shirts. Oh, and somebody needs to tell Scholes that Man U are playing."

    How true!

    If they could magically replace Adebayor with Torres then the game would be over

    Also both yellow cards were ridicilous.

    I think United will improve which is what usually happens when teams play on Wednesday in champions league and will win 2-0, hopefully not though!

    He did, however it took about 4 different replays before it could actually been seen. Officials had no hope of seeing it.
