That means Arsenal won't get past the fifth round then. Time to go to the bookies!@#

LizardKing

Bloke in work has a tenner on Utd. for the "QUADRUPLE" at 40/1

I think its gone down to 33/1 now but still not bad ( however cannot realistically see them winning everything .....)

I hope its at 6.30 on the sunday evening. that way everyone will get to see it.

On the match i think Arsenal could just sneak it as they always have an answer to united coming off a loss from the previous meeting.PROVIDED WE START BERGKAMP! We will win!

yop

Should be a good game alright, impossible to tell, both teams playing at peak, all it takes in an injury to scholes, rvn or henry and it advantage the other team

cournioni

I'm feeling confident that United will win.

Waylander

Arsenal are a great side but I fancy United to beat them in Old Trafford. Can't wait though, it should be a cracking game. The possible Liverpool v Leeds could be a good one also.

Washout

What a cracker of a match.......Cant see Utd losing that one at home i fear

jank

write arsenal off at ur perl
everyone tipped them to win to win at old trafford last time around but were too cocky and were physically beaten off the park!!!
however this time i think they would have learned there leason. O/T is one of the hardest places to get a result(along with Highbury) but i can see them winning it as arsenal always produce their best when they are questioned about their ability to win crucial games!!!
funnily enough man utd also share this quality

it should be a great encounter
predict a score draw with arsenal winning the home tie but anything can happen between now and mid Feb especially with the FA on the side of utd. bet we shall see some call up on arsenal over their conduct!!!

Hopefiully it will be a classic match with United just clinching it.

United v.s Arsenal matches have produced some real classics in the recent years.

<REMINDER>What are the bookies odds in Ryan Giggs scoring in a sudden recovery of form </REMINDER>

Pepe LeFrits

I'm feeling confident that United will lose.

TwoShedsJackson

Arsenal to win this one.

Dustaz

Ah well, gotta play the hard teams to win the cups

When both teams play to the peak of thier ability, Arsenal are the better team but hey, its the FA Cup. ManUre robbed us once before. ok, so dinny missed a peno and the back 4 watched giggs run around a bit before scoring - but it was still thievery

mike65

This great news for the rest of us!

Wolves for the Cup (well Pool will win the other!)

Mike.

BKtje

some lad apparently stuck down 1.000 for man u to win the quadtruple at 275/1 at start of season. (according to beep commentator)

imagine winning that

275k hmm ~~

yop

And no it wasn't me

BKtje

hehe thought had crossed my mind

heh... I disagree.

Chippy Brady

The winner of this game will have a huge psychological advantage for the rest of the league campaign just like the last encounter did. Remember, if Dennis had scored that penalty, I reckon Arsenal would have reclaimed the double in 99. It was a shattering blow to Arsenal when they lost and the victory gave Utd the self belief to win the treble. This game is hard to call but I'm going to go with Arsenal because they don't want to repeat the experience of losing to Utd again in such a big game. I also think that getting hammered at Old Trafford last November will benefit the Gunners as they know what to expect from a fully committed Utd side that are bang on form.

scojones

By the time the match comes around, either team could be off form by then.

Dustaz

Chippy has the best name ever on boards.ie imo

Id rather united beat them in the league again than in the cup, but hey, should be a good 'un all the same..

Mr_Roger_Bongos

Bloke in work has a tenner on Utd. for the "QUADRUPLE" at 40/1

At teh start of the season they were 170/1 to win the quadrulple! Commentator on sky sports said it.Soem guy put £1000 on them.

Hopefully Your freind and mine, Carlos Queiroz will coem up with the tactical goods again, to keep Aresenal out of the game! Phil Neville "the midfield general";) will keep Viera in his box!

Anyone know if tickets are on sale yet for the worthington cup final??

woosaysdan

united will take it but it will be a very close match if both teams are playing the way they are at da mo.

Mr_Roger_Bongos

I'd agree with teh psychological effect. Teh big dane's! penalty save was elite btw!

Mossy Monk

has it been announced yet who is going to show it (maybe no one will show it, some hope of that happening).

it would be great to have it on the Sunday evening but something tells me it will be Sky Sports Saturday lunchtime game
