VillaChris Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 8 defeats out of the last 9 for Arsenal at Old Trafford, they just can't seem to perform on that ground at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Does anyone want to win this league?! Very wide open, I really do not know (or care reallly) who will win it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avfc96 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Have to say that Jones was immense for United today, he helped stop that Arsenal midfield from playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Jones is a strange one. I've seen him have very good games at right back, centre back and midfield. I'm not sure where he plays best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 for me he's like a dog with two dicks, great energy, chases round all day and in games like today it looks good, but the majority of the time he needs more composure and maturity, with that his positioning should improve, especially if he's ever going to be a CB, seen teams in the CL play round him with ease Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Dogg Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 A typical United performance of the last few years, one we hadn't seen yet this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Looking like a very low points tally could win the league this season, maybe even under 80 points. I might be bonkers but think the team in 8th will win the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 I thought Arsenal dominated the 2nd half. United just got men behind the ball an hung on. Van Persie and Rooney apart they don't look much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 I thought Arsenal dominated the 2nd half. United just got men behind the ball an hung on. Van Persie and Rooney apart they don't look much. And how many shots on target did Arsenal actually have? I can't remember DeGea making many saves. Arsenal could have played for another hour and they wouldn't have scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oaks Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 (edited) I thought Arsenal dominated the 2nd half. United just got men behind the ball an hung on. Van Persie and Rooney apart they don't look much. They didn't really dominate, United sat deep and let Arsenal play in front of them when it was 1-0,and then hit them on the break. Other than a couple of crosses from Sanga Arsenal did nothing. Edited November 10, 2013 by Oaks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted November 10, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted November 10, 2013 RVP has no class at all to celebrate like that against the club that made him. I love to see a player celebrate against his old club. Two words: Dwight Yorke. One word: removed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papillon Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 I thought Arsenal dominated the 2nd half. United just got men behind the ball an hung on. Van Persie and Rooney apart they don't look much. "Dominated" because they were allowed to, and United defended very well to keep Arsenal out of their counter-attacking best. Perfectly executed plan really. At 0-0 United showed much more passion and deserved to take the lead, even though they didn't exactly create many chances themselves. Rooney also had the biggest chance in the second half, and apart from those crosses from Sagna (that United really should have cleared) Arsenal didn't create anything. Only time Arsenal have gone off the field without scoring this season in the Premier League. Strange season happening, every team is losing to everyone. Arsenal losing to us, City playing badly against Sunderland, Chelsea should have lost last night and so on. Liverpool will never last the season, don't think Arsenal will either. Too reliant on Giroud and Özil to stand the 38 games, but things might happen in January. A great striker and some defensive power and they are there really. Giroud is a very good striker, but he is not a very good player like Suarez or Van Persie - i.e creating things on his own out of nothing. Rumors about Benzema, but why on earth would Real Madrid sell him in January? United bench today: Januzaj, Giggs, Cleverley, Fellaini, Nani and Hernandez. That's youth/creativity, experience, grit, power/headers, skills/technique and poaching - pick anyone for the right need. Arsenal bench: Wilshere, Gnabry, Bendtner, Monreal, Jenkinson and Hayden. Wilshere is a great player of course, but none of the others are going to change games. I mean, Bendtner on to change their attacking struggles? Never going to happen. Still think Chelsea will grab the title, they are exactly where they should be in terms of points and Mourinho will get a hold of the squad eventually. Besides, they have been "poor" for most of the season but are still at 21 points and only 4 behind Arsenal. That is nothing when you look at the squad they have compared to their neighbors in London. Tottenham are also well placed in terms of points, but they lack cohesion entirely and do they have TOO many players to choose from? Soldado is really struggling to get a grip around how to be a successful striker in the Premier League, they have six goals from open play I think? Chelsea are going to buy a striker in January and they are going to spend lots of cash doing so.... I'm predicting: 1. Chelsea (with a margin of at least 6 points) 2. Man Utd (Best strike-force and a big squad with lots of different players) 3. Arsenal (one injury to Özil or Giroud and they are basically in the shit) 4. Man City (4 losses already, still have to play United, Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham away) 5. Spurs (very close to Liverpool in the end I think) 6. Liverpool (squad is weak) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsenal could have played for another hour and they wouldn't have scored. More shots than United and 60% of possession at old Trafford. I think they really missed rosicky today. He was great against Dortmund. To be fair the game could have gone either way. United have the edge up front. Arsenal have the edge in midfield. The title wont be decided on that game alone. i still fancy Arsenal to finish above United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
