Arsenal VS Manchester United.

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

I think a draw is the most likely result.

But if it isn't a draw, I see Man Utd winning.

Chelski are gonna be the real winners either way, innit?

I mean whoever loses is probably out of contention, whereas if it's a draw then they could both be lumbered.
Grrr. Argh.

Damn, I forgot to add "Draw".
That's the last time I create a poll

I read today that Chelsea might get punished for talking to Ashley Cole? (Chelsea will lose some points).
Might be a load of crap of course.

Believe it when I see it. Villa got found guilty of trying to tap up James Beattie this season and didn't get docked points. Plus Mourinho has an alibi for the day in question - supposedly he was off tapping up Adriano.
Grrr. Argh.

Ob,

You follow English football quite a lot. Is it more entertaining than your own football leagues? I'm curious. :)

Malmö FF (Malmö being the city I live in) won the swedish league last year. That was quite entertaining :D Now I hope that they qualify for the Champ. League.

But the truth is that english footy is way more entertaining than swedish league footy.
And the swedish league is scheduled between April -> November/December.
So between November - april I got to have something to do ;)
And there's alot of english people here, which makes it even more fun.
I'm not a hardcore fan though. But I try to read the papers about whats going on, the latest transfers and I tro to watch a game now and then.
:)

And that epitomises everything I hate about the CL. League winners should go through to it automatically and nobody else, dagnabit.

Swedish footballers are great. Except Andreas Jackobsson... he seems dodgy...
Grrr. Argh.

Yeah, and don't know what's wrong with him.
He was great in World Cup 2002 - but after that... :(
I'm still waiting for Michael Svenssons return!

yes, its always the Man United fans! - were a crazy bunch.

2-1 at half time.

Arsenal look more dangerous going forward,
Rooney will be sent off before the end of the game.

4-2 Arsenal i think.

That was un-expected, but o'osheas got good again, in midfield. at the start of the season we were all saying "fegies lost it, O'sheas a defender" and last few games from mid field, hes got forward and scored.
fergie proved me wrong again (good) - Ronaldo just gets better and better, boro know that, giggs defies age, Keane, well what can u say about Keane, total masterclass. on and off the pitch.

Arsenal didnt get forward on the wing, and were caught by uniteds 5 man midfield.
cole didnt feature except for a dive.
Viera went missing as he does now.
United stuck to the job, to come TWICE from behind, had a man sent off, fergie did some genius tactical work, and O'shea punished them.

I actually felt sorry for ROnaldo, as whilst he was still on the pitch he was heading for a hat-trick for sure - untill silvester head butted.
Dennis Berkamp was Arsenals best player last night, the rest were crap. to old, and out classed. thats why Wenger looked worried.
Arsenal are a spent force. with no spirit or belife.

O'Shea couldn't believe he chipped the Arsenal goalie, class. :D

Anti-Class moment: Silvestre headbutting Ljungberg. :no: What in Gods name were you thinking man? And people wonder Arsenal can't get anywhere in the Champions League/Bad Guys Ball? :oops: That and both their goalies look like lemons and suck like lemons too. :o

As for Keane: Class midfielder if you ask me and willing to stick up for teammates if the bust up in the tunnel before the match is anything to go by.

theres nothing to argue about - you have your opinion, I have mine.
you call him arogant, I call it confidence.
we both agree hes a good centre.

As for your friend, he is one United fan, I dont share his opinion. but your generalizing. United racist!

Keane on the other hand would struggle in no team.

Doesnt that depend on like a million things?
I can't see Keane play in the italian league - their style of play is alot different, etc.
Or you were only talking about english teams?
