Win Manchester United 0 - 1 Arsenal | Sunday, May 12th | KO: 16:30 GMT | Sky Sports

Here's hoping they beat us at home as comfortably as they've beaten Brighton, Bournemouth, Palace & Fulham.

It has fallen to me to shepherd our young, battle weary Gunners & will them on to see our last away match of the season in style.

It is to be the 32nd battle at Old Trafford between the two sides who, in the not-so-distant past, WERE the Premier League.

I say battle because no trip to Old Trafford has ever been a drab affair. Even when both clubs were cast into the wilderness.

Those titanic battles that did matter, usually swung the pelendulum towards the victor.



This legendary gunner knew what it's all about!!

We mustn't falter in the face of what is, undoubtedly, the worst United side since the PL era started. This is coupled with the fact they're being led by the worst United manager of said era & certainly the one most obsessed with us!!

God willing, it's a hard fought 3 points for us so that INEOS remains convinced Ten Hag is the way forward so he can fritter away another £400 million.

Manchester United 0 - Arsenal 2

A lovely win at the Toilet...a hilarious miss by Giggs, a lovely goal from Wiltord and all in a very underrated Arsenal kit...

It’s Wiltord’s 50th birthday today I believe

I want blood on Sunday, this is our best chance to avenge the 8-2 if we ever have it

Given our away performances this season there should only be one result, but like many others on here, I still have this nagging feeling of Old Trafford and the awful results we've had there over the past 15 years, even in their decline they manage to pull a performance out the bag

"Wenger moved quickly to strengthen his squad, signing South Korean striker Park Chu-young from Monaco,Brazilian André Santos from Fenerbahçe, German defender Per Mertesacker from Werder Bremen,and Spanish midfielder Mikel Arteta from Everton, as well as loaning Yossi Benayoun from rivals Chelsea."

Wenger does it again.

Top player for me, could play well in pretty much any position in attack.

That was a really mixed bag. Arteta and Mertesacker did well, Benayoun was only a bit-partplayer, Santos couldn't defend for toffee and Park barely played.

We only loaned Benayoun and he was pretty useful if I remember correctly. Did well in the 5-2 against Sp**s and scored a few important goals in the run-in when we secured top 4.

I'm just realising that half of the Invincibles are in their 50's now. I feel old.

They’re in that leaks from inside the squad phase.

I think Benayoun scored the winner against Norwich that guaranteed CL football. And I think it was last day of the season IIRC

West Brom I think. Scored against Norwich too, mathc before

Benayoun (and Rosicky) getting into the team in 2011/2012, allowed us to play some proper football again...before them that season was one of the worst to watch us play, probably the first time under Arsène our football wasn't that great.

We lost Fabregas and Nasri, Wilshere missed the whole season injured, Arshavin went full "McDonalds Man" that year and we lost out on Cazorla that summer...creativity wise, we were in the mud

Summer 2011 was big as both Arteta and Mertesacker proved crucial figures, as players and staff members now...but Yossi was decent for us, especially for a cheap loan.

 

[GoonerJeeves]

The less said about Andre Santos the better. Few players have been more of an embarrassment to Arsenal Football Club and Brazil than him. Banter signing.

Branco didn't die for this.

 

[Hinx]

Sounds like Bruno and McTominay are back in training and Rashford could feature. Hopefully the former and latter miss, anything good United do (which isn't a lot, granted) inevitably comes through Fernandes. And Rashford has a nasty habit of scoring against us whatever form he's in.

 

[RandomHero84]

I do not care about our record at OT.

We are so much better than them. They are in literally disarray. They have some talented players but most premier league players do (not Sheffield United).

We have the most powerful motivation football can provide. We have a defined play style. We have the personnel, and we have had a rest. We MUST win this game, and we should.

 

[DJ_Markstar]

These guys have got like 7 defenders missing from a defence that wasn’t great to begin with. Bruno and Rashford are out as well as much as I want to stay grounded I can’t see how we don’t smash them here. Would be awesome to rub it into Ten Hags face and give him something real to talk about next time he mentions the Arsenal.

come on @Makingtrax this is a free hit for you son

 

[Tnegs]

I blame LiveScore.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Ten hag confirm mctominay Rashford and Fernandes are back but Martinez and Mount won't play against Arsenal.

Sheffield had them at 2-2 at OT before some late goals gave United the win, Burnley held this lot to a 1-1 draw at OT. They need spanking and we really should.

He did ok but only played 19 games, that's why I had him in the middle.
