We were supposed to score at the 97th minute and make it 4-3. The ref stopped play at the 5th minute of the 4 injury time minutes!!! Whaaat!! I missed the drama in City's game because my team couldn't kill off Basel giving me a nervous time in the second half!!!

Todays prediction is ;

1st trial =Arsenal 1-0 Olympiacos
2nd trial =Arsenal 2-1 Olympiacos

The problem with buying "stars" is that controlling their egos becomes quite a challenge in the dressing room.

Since they all believe they are "stars", keeping all of them happy becomes quite a task. Carlos Tevez can't believe that he should be warming the bench. On the otherhand, Dzeko can't believe that he is not good enough to last 90mins on the pitch. Therein lies the reason why Manshitty are not about to lift any major silverware soon.

Reason why England will never win any major silverware in football in the better part of 10 years to come, if we continue to hold players like Rio, Barry and Lampard in high esteem, to slow to be honest.

Like Smano said well if Fergie thinks he changed his line-up to challenge Barcelona then he is in for a shocker, his team cannot play agains Barca,Milan,Real, Bayern heck even Chelsea to be quite frank and God does he need a playmaker.

Rooney served this role well and without him they have struggles Giggs, Park hawatoshi and truth be told Nani is a hot or cold kind of guy can't rely on him fully.Other teams are watching just like Everton did to Mancity, bayern did the same but with better results, snuff out Silva and you are in with a fighting chance, i am beginning to see the same a thankless task, man-mark Rooney and Man U will struggle and will reitalate Hernandez is not a great striker and he will struggle to replicate what he did last season and Young ukweli hatoshi, a new player is always ecpected to play with vigour and gusto like he has done, but his stats tell an all too familiar tale ask Villa fans.

Man u were lucky against Chelsea to be honest this luck was never going to last long sasa tunaona kutangulia sio kufika!!

I don't want to talk too much about Man Utd's performance because we face Olympiakos tonight and given our recent luck with injuries i wouldn't bet on anything. @ Smano, i just wonder what the so called pundits would have said if it was Arsenal who had thrown away a 2-0 lead like that....just take a look a how this clown in goal.com tries to justify yesterday's performance.

So when Man Utd youngsters fail to perform its "all part of that learning experience and the team's development" but when Arsenal youngsters do the same they receive all sorts of criticism from the same idiots.....like someone has said no wonder England never win anything.

@ Mc Reggae....The unfortunate thing with Arsenal is that we sell our kids when they get to 23 yrs old and use the proceeds to buy 18 & 17 yr olds. We've become a feeder club to Barca and Man City!

Things are beginning to stabilize bit by bit for Man-U, two draws in two games after winning 5 games is not what SAF would have wanted. It gets even worse when you throw a 2-0 win to a team like Basel at Old Traford and your next game is at Liverpool! I see another draw here.
As for today i can predic a 2-1 win for the Gunners at Emirates, despite the fact that we are missing almost 9 first team players.

@Taz, I agree it would be a case of "as usual Arsenal couldn't hold it together"

Like Fergie said, it's good this has happened early in the group stages and a still relatively easy group where we have time to regroup - hopefully it's a lesson however plays in the next matches won't forget. When Fergie was asked what he told the team at halftime he said he wanted them to kill off the game as they should have before the end of the half! Clearly they thought the old man was demanding too much against weak opponents.

When it reaches the knockout stages, those away goals are the ones that finish off strong teams *remembering Robben's "painful" volley at OT that bundled us out of the 2010 quarters*

I still can't believe what happened at Old Trafford yesterday!

Man United have lost ONLY ONCE in the last 32 Champions league games at the theatre of dreams. They have WON 20 STRAIGHT games at the venue! Do you know how long it takes up to rake in such a record? Any other team that has ever pulled off the same? And then yesterday happens! I was in shock! Like @McReggae, I almost got a heart attack in the last 10 minutes of the game!

arsenal have already gunned the visitors two goals. The bad thing is that all the names one the score sheet are strange to me. Arsenal, what kind of squad are you fielding?
