if poo fail to win ANY of the last 3 CL matches - its UEFA cup liao
 
if united had started with saha and LUIS NANI,

they might have won the game. but obviously the policy on the day was to defend, as is the case when you have 2 battering rams playing as forwards

If there were 2 "battering rams" playing as forwards, then the policy on the day was to win. No one defends with "battering rams".

Seems like ARSEnal fans are the only ones contended with a draw...which is weird 'coz I thought all teams look to win...not draw...hmm.
 
I agree, its kinda weird that although Arsenal had more of the possession, the attack is a lot less, and considering that they were the home team that day.

it would have been more exciting to see a striker of speed and flair on the field rather than 2 tanks who attack from deep. that is why the policy was to defend.

and man u couldnt defend against the hleb-rosicky-fabregas combi with anything less than 6 in defence

edit: i am not against man u or anything, i think both man u and arsenal are equally as bullshit. but i felt that man u could have set their stall out much better than they did

Wah Shinobi sounds like sour grapes.. :D
 
where got sour grapes? i was watching the match with 3 man utd supporters who were mystified as to why nani stayed on the bench, especially when he is 100% fit. hargreaves was anonymous, while anderson, despite moments of brilliance, failed to dominate the midfield. and the saha sub really sparked man u into life. i just didn't expect man u to give arsenal as much respect as they did.

oh well, all that's left is for arsenal to face chelsea next. their unbeaten run has to end somewhere.

and lets not forget,

Benitez would be in deep shit from the fans if they dun qualify..

I support the new rule on home grown players in the team! Its not called the ENGLISH premier league for nothing!
 
i hope 8 goals were enough....

anyway the rule will never take into effect; football is just like any other industry, and any quota on home grown players is considered discrimination
 
congrats pool ... with this win they shud be able to finish 3rd in the group for a uefa cup place
 
Wow Liverpool. Not bad at all........I'm impressed. Finally they find the good Liverpool side that they can settled with. The rotation system is killing them
 
Wenger explains reason for quartet missing from squad

By Richard Clarke

Arsène Wenger has explained the reason why Alex Hleb, Cesc Fabregas, Kolo Toure and Tomas Rosicky did not board the plane to Prague on Tuesday afternoon ahead of the game at Slavia.

The Czech midfielder and the Ivorian defender have slight injuries, while the Belarusian and the Spaniard are rested.

“I wanted to take Tomas Rosicky, but he has a slight problem with his groin,” said the manager.

“Kolo Toure got a kick on his calf [against Manchester United on Saturday]. He will be OK for Reading on Monday. Rosicky, we don’t know yet.

“Alex Hleb and Cesc Fabregas are rested.”

GALLAS!!!!!!!!
