Arsenal vs Manchester United @ Emirates 08-11-2008

Arsenal and Manchester United will renew their pleasantries with a high-stakes encounter at the Emirates Stadium. Both squads come in firing at less than all of their cylinders. Arsenal are coming off an embarrassing draw with Tottenham and a humiliating loss to Stoke City in which Arsene Wenger accused everyone and their mothers of being out to injure anyone wearing a Gunners kit. They’ll be without suspended Robin Van Persie, and could be without Theo Walcott and skipper William Gallas. Arsenal fans are getting antsy and upset with their team, and the feeling is that they need to get their season on track with a win against Manchester United.

As for United, they are coming off
a tense 4-3 victory against Hull City and a 1-1 draw with Celtic. They’re having trouble defending in the back and they’re having trouble finishing off their chances on offense. Plus, there’s that whole problem with figuring out what 30 million pound striker to play. The last thing they’ll want to do is to drop points in a title race that they’re already running behind, especially against a hated rival.

If you ask me, frankly speaking I would say that even though my team is Arsenal and I hope they will win this after winless in the last few matches, I do must admit that with their current form and injuries, they look the best at snatching a draw against the champions. The match is gonna start in 20 minutes time. Let's enjoy the match and may the best team win :) Hope it will be my team...
