Then man U wins must be most hurting

........and I see arsenal lack faith in winning against chelsea!!

And Barca were held!

Constructive/objective criticism is what I can handle e.g. Man Utd have a very leaky defense this season and ANY team playing against them knows they can score goals.

That was before yesterday's match at Mastalla, hopefully we'll continue keeping clean sheets going forward.

Saying that SAF fielded a weak team against Valencia is simply not true - Rooney & Giggs were out coz of injury and Scoles has been having a niggling calf strain so he was spared from aggravating it!

That's what I mean! Personally I don't have anything against Arsenal FC, I just can't stand the local fans (no need to hate a team that hasn't won anything in 5 seasons), as for Chelsea, I hate the fact that they spoilt our party last year and seem likely to do so again this season

@smano & McReggae: Copy that!

Again to quote my nephew, people say ooh United do not have a chance, when United wins they say it was lucky. They then say that United should win easily, but if they don't, they say the United team was weak!

How I long for the day someone will start a thread on tactics, where we can discuss properly the tactics used by all teams. Lets talk about how 4-2-3-1 is better than 4-2-2 or 4-3-3 and vice versa. Then people can stop all this ati if you play so and so, then you will be punished! Nonsense!

Now back to the Chelsea v Arsenal game. Chances are that this will be a chelsea win if stats are to be believed. See below extract from Eruo sport Yahoo.

Didier Drogba has scored 12 goals in his last 10 appearances in all competitions against Arsenal.

The Gunners have only been able to win two of their last 17 matches against Chelsea.

Arsenal have won more times away at Chelsea (6) than any other team in the Premier League era.

Nicolas Anelka has scored seven goals in his last 11 Premier League starts against Arsenal.

Arsenal’s recent record against Chelsea and Manchester United since their win at Stamford Bridge in November 2008: P9 W0 D1 L8 F5 A20.

Chelsea have fired in more shots on target than any other team (47), ahead of Arsenal with the second-highest tally of 41.

Both goals Chelsea have conceded have been from shots from outside the box.

Mike Dean has awarded five penalties in the last seven games that he has taken charge of a Chelsea match in the Premier League.

Andrey Arshavin has created 3.33 goalscoring chances per game in the Premier League this season, more than any other player in the league.

Michael Essien has averaged 95 touches per game this season, more than any other top-flight player.

End of Quote

So to sum it up a goal from Drogba, another from anelka and a penalty will settle this...am being optimistic

don't worry.. Next season watakuwa on top!

Guka, we talking average here men!!!....and stop counting those passes arses make towards their own goal!!!!

Leo no leo and I'm behind one of the most painful team to support this EPL season.
Please join me in "feeling the pain"



A more bearable pain will be 1-1 draw.

This Man - U draws are becoming too much! 4 draws from 7 games! That's terrible by Man - U standards. You don't drop 8 points from 7 games when you are Man - U. And the sad point is that some of those games were done and dusted till the last few minutes. I just hope we will not look back at this draws at the end of the season in regret.

I still have faith in the team but we have to go back to our ruthless self. Ruthless attack, mean defence - that's classical Man - U.

Hapo nimekubaliana na wewe @Taz...

Maich, I think those draws will come to haunt us in the end - remember Man Shitty last season - 7/8 consecutive draws that cost Hughes his job and them a place in the last four when they could have easily captured 3rd place?
