Despite the 0-0 draw at Spurs, think Man U played one of their better games this season.


But is sad to see sAF sub nani with Anderson. Too conservative.
Should sub Rooney with hernadez. Rooney had pretty poor first touch.

Nevertheless 1 pt is good.

Ya, should be Carrick against Anderson..... Carrick could not hold up against Modric......

Actually Rooney was more threatening than Berbatov......

In short, this game showed that Man Utd's midfield has no match against Spurs'....... Giggs and Nani and not in the same class as Bale and Lennon. Carrick and Fletcher not in the same class as Palacios and Modric......

Watching the Spurs-Manu game, I think that Spurs had the edge, especially after the sending off. A draw is the best result for Arsenal. Doesn't let Manu stretch the lead too much and doesn't allow spurs to get too close.

Re: The Barclays Premiership / Champions League Thread

Maybe Stevie G will not be an automatic starter soon.
 
Re: The Barclays Premiership / Champions League Thread

Did Man U play really good, or was Birmingham poor?

O'Shea not bad at RB, Anderson was full of running throughout, Nani should have scored more.

Berba hattrick!
 
Re: The Barclays Premiership / Champions League Thread

Anderson-Gibson combo was good, but Giggs was amazing at 37 !!!

Same number of games played, Man Utd is 10 points ahead of Chelsea !!! What a change in fortune !!! City and Arsenal now look more serious in challenging the top spot.....
 
Re: The Barclays Premiership / Champions League Thread

SAF's belief in Berbatov paid off! And to think that there were many, including Man Utd fans like myself who were wondering when Berbatov will be sold off last season. SAF is the man!
 
Re: The Barclays Premiership / Champions League Thread

What a debut for Bent at Villa!
 
Re: The Barclays Premiership / Champions League Thread

Looks like ManU's form starting to kick in. If Rooney starts scoring as well, then ManU will be in top gear. ManU's next few games are easy.

Arsenal has also started to pick up its form with a few easy victories. With ManU 5 pts ahead, Arsenal needs to be consistent and get victories and hope that ManU drop a few points.

ManC and Spurs dropped points and Chelsea are quite far behind. We are moving into the 2/3 mark of the season and this is where the men are separated from the boys.

This is the time to perform. I called Arsene Wenger already. He is shifting into DS mode now.

:dance:

Mancini and Ancelotti might not agree, but I think Man Utd and Arsenal are the serious title contender. Man City and Chelsea are fighting hard. Spurs looks to be a flash in the pan.

Chelsea are not totally out of it and still have a chance. Manc slightly better but they cannot afford to slip up like the Villa game. Both of the managers have too much internal problems with the owners/players etc etc. This will affect their performance.

Arsenal now leads the chasing pack to catch ManU.
 
Re: The Barclays Premiership / Champions League Thread

Based on current form, only 2 teams in the running... Red Devils and Gunners.

But we have seen some really unexpected results this season!
 
Re: The Barclays Premiership / Champions League Thread

The season will really heat up when the second phrase of CL starts.
The gaps are too close to separate the winner yet. I foresee morevtwists and turns.
 
Re: The Barclays Premiership / Champions League Thread

Arsenal had played both Chelsea and Man City (home and away)... now we are left with Man U & L'pool at home and Spurs away.

Plus, I dont see how we could beat Barcelona... so on paper, Arsenal should have an easier path to domestic glory.
