Battle at the top

[Lickalotapuss]

So, its Man U v Arsenal this weekend.

Biggest clash of the season so far I think, they'll be some bets flying about the pub on Sunday when it is on.

So what does everyone think the outcome of the game will be? Lets all give a half time and full time score with scorers and we'll see next week if anyone got it spot on.

Half time - Man U 1 - 0 Arsenal (Giggs)

Full Time - Man U 1 - 2 Arsenal (Henry, Wiltord)

Half Time - United 0 - 0 Arsenal
Full Time - United 2 - 1 Arsenal

[Docter Lurve]

One nil to Arsenal and an early goal by maybe Pires or Campbell I reckon, say the 14th minute!

And If im right....it'll just be scary!

Tight game all around with both sides holding back a bit- neither looked in any decent shape last weekend!

HT- Man Utd 2-0 Arsenal
van Nistelrooy (6, 24)


FT- Man Utd 3-1 Arsenal
van Nistelrooy (6, 24) Pires (68)
Scholes (73)

[sniper666]

oops Scholes won't score cos he won't be playing. Giggs will score instead.

Arsenal 3 (Henry x3, all Penalties, all dives tooprobably)
Man U 3 (Van Nistelrooy X3, all Penalties, all dives too probably)

[Man Of Kent]

No prediction from me. Brings bad luck...

There there

Now its obvious to me why Leeds have no success, its because everyone else cheats.

If Champions League performances are taken into account we could witness a true roasting. :D

But then Man U are no Inter Milan, are Arsenal are no Panathinaikos,

Too unpredictable to tell, really. I have both Arsenal and Man U defenders in my fantasy league team so a 0-0 would be nice. But if anyone must score let it be Henry or Giggs.

Surely MUFC are better?

The only team to have reached the Champions League QF in the past seven years. Even the great Real Madrid haven't done that...

Of course, they have won it a couple of times during that period...

Debatable.

Inter didn't have their two best players last night (Vieri and Recoba) and were still devastating. And don't forget they just lost Crespo to Chelski.

Not saying United are better or worse, but I wonder what they'd be like without the likes of Scholes and Van Nistelrooy on a regular basis.

Don't forget, it was only just the other week that Wolves played you off the park.

Panathinaikos are a decent side and it will be a hard game in Greece, assuming we still need the points. They hardly touched the ball at Old Trafford though, and were no match for the mighty Manchester United.

Juventus are the Italian champions, a team who United destroyed both at home (2-1) and away (0-3) last season.

Don't forget, it was only just the other week that Wolves played you off the park.

That game was on the back of two humiliating defeats for Wolves. It was their cup final and the effort level was around 170%

And we still won.
