Seemed to be an electric atmosphere at the beginning of the game
The noise of the gooners was deafening

Gibbs was very unlucky with the first (was he taken off at half time?)
Dont know what the fcuk Almunia was at for the 2nd :D
Utd's third was superb

Suprised Rooney stayed on the pitch for so long, I would have had him off after the 2nd

Fletcher was unlucky. Will be interesting to see if the referee admits to a mistake.

All in all, good night at the office
Roll on the 27th

fletcher went in as if utd were 1 behind...v stupid to take the man down at that stage of the game.

also if the ref should admit to any mistakes maybe he'd need to go through all that first half and admit a few other mistakes.

Did you see the incident? He didnt take the man down, he won the ball


What mistakes did he make in the 1st half?

Wise the f**k up, even the voyeur has admitted he should not have got a red and that fecker never sees anything.

Soft decisions one way or the other are not really the same as the Fletcher sending off. You can't get away with the same physical game in Europe as you can in the Premier League. Everyone knows it and that is why you get what 'appears' to be soft decisions by European refs. If you are refering to the free kick that led to the Ronado free kick going in, maybe decision was a little soft but that's European football. FFS it was 40 or so yards out, Almunia shold have done better.

Even I felt a bit sorry for fletcher last night!
He was probably man of the match too.

Another good thing about last night is that Utd can carry a lot of confidence into the remaining league games. 3 points of sh1ty on Sunday and it is all over in my opinion. Will Arsenal be able to gather themselves up for a challenge after last week and last night?

The GAA


Great night's football last night altogether. some observations:

I watched the game on rte. when the united team was announced, it was obvious CR would be up front with park on the right and rooney on the left - where he has been playing almost exclusively for months. rte spend 10 mins discussing the folly of playing rooney up front on his own. CR plays as many games up front as he does on the wing - particularly in europe when fergie wants pace in behind the opposition.

Arsenal were mentally brittle. the gibbs mistake finished the game for that reason.

fabregas as gone backwards something shocking this season. i believe he'll leave in the summer.

does wenger not realise the injection he would give his very talented youngsters if he added a villa type figure up front and a terry type figure at the back?

dunphy hasn't a notion. telling souness he doesn't know what he's talking about while discussing the size of the arsenal transer pot! "who have you managed?" says souness.

Rooney is united's most important player by a mile. those counter attack goals that have become something of a trade mark always seem to end with a jet propelled rooney giving a fantastic final ball - the most difficult skill in soccer.

Thon panel in RTE have spent the past two season talking crap about how poor Ronaldo is...my good god, I don't think Dumphy would know a good footballer if he saw one...but he gives us a laugh

A couple of weeks ago on here there were Utd fans saying he doesnt do things the "United way" and they would be glad to get rid of him in the summer. He is still the most important player at United.

Who said he doesnt do things the "United way" & they would be glad to get rid of him?

While Ronaldo is a of massive importance I would still have Rooney as 'the most important player at United'
