Arsenal Vs. Manchester United [EPL]

[Farhad-7]

Previews and post-discussions all here

Battle for second place of EPL.

This sort of a BIG RIVALRY especially with the fans. This is a huge game for both teams as it could very well decide who could join Chelsea in the two horse race for the EPL.

Sun 31 Jan 2010, Kick-off: 16:00 (GMT), Emirates Stadium



as you can see, Rio will miss this game and next 3 games as he knocked out Fagan in the Hull game and the ref didn't see it Also Vidic is back though for Man Utd in this game. Other than that no real injury problems for Utd.

as for Arsenal, we all know that Van Persie is out for rest of season and a one worthwhile player who won't make this game is Diaby (I personally don't mind, he fusses up too much in big games like the own goal he scored in the away fixture ) However some good news: Clichy and Bendtner back! Clichy probably could start as Bendtner will be a sub.

Are you guys pumped for this game??? I know I am

PS: let's try to keep this thread as respectful as we can between the gunner and utd fans no matter what happens in the game..I think last time it wasn't too pretty

oh and here's the league for top 4 teams currently:

[persianbruin]

a must win for the gunners

[Farhad-7]

just confirmed. vermaelan and eduardo out for this clash with injuries lol.

[Shervin.]

lol, good old control alt print screen.

I think arsenal's line up will be:

Almunia

Sagna Gallas Vermaelen/Cambell Clichy

Fabregas Song Ramsey

Nasri Bendtner Arshavin

Obviously cambell will only play if Vermaelen doesn't recover in time. I know Song has just came back from Africa but with an injured Diaby, i think he will rather play him than Denilson.

Arsenal must win this, and as a fan, i will say arsenal win. But i cant guess the score. Maybe 2-1

what??? he played against stoke in the fa cup and against villa last game. he was expected to be out for 3 weeks, like nasri, when he was injured, but they both recovered quicker than that. Are you sure, I looked around and I think he is fine:

I think Campbell will do great. Come on Burnley in 30mins!!!

[Nokhodi]

I like Arsenal more than Man Utd, but Arsenal as usual will choke and lose this one.

[PersianMadrid7]

1-1 tie

But I think Rooney might pull an upset in the 80th minute range. Otherwise I'm really hoping for a Arsenal win.

nooo! fabregas, song, and either nasri/arshavin/bendtner will win us this game. If we didn't have Song and had denilson then I might have agreed slightly.
