FA Cup Fifth Round
Old Trafford
Saturday 16th February 2008
KO - 17:15 GMT

Can't wait for this match :eusa_danc

Predictions?

[Brody]

1-1 im thinkin or 0-0
or 1 goal to either side too close to call imo

[Geraint]

0-0.

Have to miss the first half because I won't get home from Cardiff until 6:15.

[Grainger@CUFC]

Could easily go either way so I'm unsure. Should be very close though!

[UnitedRoad]

i hope carrick starts

[Immenseman]

Hopefully should be a good game, I hope they both go for it and don't play too defensive because then it'll be a shocking game as both teams are pretty sound denfensively. If both teams go for the win then I see United winning, 2-1. If not then I still see United winning, 1-0.

[Middlesbrough]

WE ARE THE UNITED
WE AAAAAAARE THE UNITED
THERES ONLY OOOOOOOOOONE WAYNE ROONEY!
KEEMON MAN U

[Greco!!]

to hard to predict who wins but whoever does i reckon there will be 1 goal in it, 1-0 or 2-1

i am more concerned about the premiership match at old trafford!

[Jordie]

i think united will snatch this one

just got that feeling its going to be uniteds day

[PaulMacC]

Manure wont win.

[Mexel]

3-1 Man U

[UnitedRoad]

i just hope its not a draw

[Browney]

Well whatever happens the winning team will have momentum for the premiership match.

I think there will definately be just the one goal in it. I cant see a 2-0 or higher win.

[Greco!!]

we have quite a lot of players out for this match.. no 1st team left or right back is fit which is gunna make things hard

Clichy, Sagna, Senderos, Walcott, Djourou, van Persie, Diaby, Almunia, Denilson, Tomas Rosicky are all out it sounds like

[United.Road]

eboue is back


he'll fill in at right back if you're struggling

[United.Road]

saha is back for united

[Geraint]

Arsenal's best hope is a draw. All their players are out.

Clichy and Senderos will travel, so might play.

[brandon]

This match is part of both my two accumulator bets.
First one = Draw
Second one = Man Utd leading at half time, draw full time (14/1)

[carrick]

i would hate a draw i think thats the worst out come for both teams

[Simmzay]

I have a bad feeling that Arsenal will be given a thrashing today. Getting the same feelings as the Spurs game, I guess it'll all depend on team selections.

I'd like to see Flamini playing defence and Song play along side Fabregas in the middle, and Bendther and Eduardo up front.

----------Lehmann--------------
Flamini--Gallas--Senderos--Clichy
Eboue--Song--Fabregas--Hleb
-------Bendther--Eduardo------

If Gilberto plays then it's all over before it begins.

why if gilberto starts its all over? he was pretty decent last season, whats happened to him?
i hope saha is on the bench today. he was one of the main reasons we won the title last season but this season he hasnt had many games which is a shame!
i dont think ronaldo will play for us either because he wasnt in training yesterday

[Mortalized]

clichy and senderos are injured..

[Simmzay]

Gilberto has been by far the most disappointing player this season. He's very lazy and doesn't close down the ball enough, and always gives away freekicks in "Ronaldo territory".

If Senderos is injured then it's Toure, and Traore instead of Clichy.

I think Saha can trouble our defence also.

[carrick]

traore was he the left back who played against spurs? he looked awful against them.. if it is i hope we cause him alot of problems :D i can see us beating arsenal today, u have alot of injuries and im sure alot of people will be using it as an excuse.

[Greco!!]

ye it was him clichy should be rested if he aint fit as the ac milan match is more important imo
Toure will start im sure

[Simmzay]

I called it.

Thrashing.

[PaulMacC]

Simmzay, I can seem them getting beat 3-2.
Hleb hit a belter of a shot and it was deflected.

[PaulMacC]

3-0, game over.

[matt093]

Oh ROFL at the score.

[The Undertaker]

thats my bet that arsenal would win out the window.
Next job: AC Milan

I hope Wenger doesn't bring on Clichy & Adebayor. Don't get them even more injured for Milan game :(

[Clowgon]

3 nill.:P:P

Rooney
Fletcher
Nani

Fletcher is having a great day:P. So is rooney Nani'scelebration was ace. Arsenal are geting walked all over the park.

Merged from a seperate thread by REDNECK (Forum Moderator): There is already a discussion here. :)

[Simmzay]

Wenger making the same mistake... the match is over, damage limitation is what we need now. Everyone behind the ball!

[Tiked]

3 nill.:P:P

Obviously this is the best day in your life :rolleyes:

Arsenal have half the team injured and we are beating you in the table, so no need to boast.

[Jackbee]

yeah, and liverpool lost v barnsley so it's not like we will be the laughing stock..

[The Undertaker]

Eboue sent off :l
It doesnt look that bad ... or am i missing something.

[mangle]

JESUS CHRIST

HE ALSO TOOK OFF EVRAS MANLINESS! o.o

[Kewl]

I keep waiting for us to fight back :(!

[mangle]

I keep waiting for us to fight back :(!

wenger may give up and concentrate on champs league. more money you see

[Jackbee]

oh well, better fifth round than semi final/final

[PaulMacC]

Bring on Ada and knock 1/2 in to save our pride.

[Browney]

Oh my word. I laughed when I heard the score. I won't gloat though. My prediction was so wrong. 1 goal in it, eh? I'm a very happy bunny at the moment. Even if you had alot of first teamers injured, I am well happy with the score.

AND ITS 4!

I mean err... *cough*

Oooh Ada got yellow for diving.

[PaulMacC]

You never know
Adabayor is on, Senderos too :)
Let's go Ada, knock a few in.

[Geraint]

I'd rather win the premier league.

[Browney]

I'd rather win the premier league.

I know, I know. But let me have this little victory? :P It's good for the lads spirit too.

[PaulMacC]

4-0.
Good game.

[Geraint]

I have decided that in school at Monday, I will just laugh at Liverpool to draw the attention away from Arsenal's trouncing. I don't think I've ever seen Arsenal play so bad.

[PaulMacC]

Neither have I.

[Geraint]

This game could have been at least 10-0.

[PaulMacC]

Give us 1-2 conselation goals.

[Geraint]

Give us 1-2 conselation goals.

Be lucky to score another this year if they continue to play like this.

[PaulMacC]

Trust me, half the team is injured, we need RvP & Ada back up front the whole game.
Gilberto needs to retire.


FT 4-0 :'(

[Geraint]

I'd normally defend Arsenal's performances but I can't defend that. Arsenal might have had 9 injuries but you just can't play like that, whatever players are on the field. It's not like Arsenal fielded the weakest of all sides.

[--ss--]

Poor game for Arsenal.
There was alot of terrible passes which lead to united getting the ball , the strikers didn't get many touches and the defence kept going up. Lehman played good though.

Hopefully we'll do better against AC Milan.

[mangle]

Carricks passes were amazing.

[Technologic]

Nani was brilliant in that match. It was so funny when he was doing the keepy uppy with his head around the 70th minute

[carrick]

hhhahahahahaha only 4-0!!!!! :lol: what an amazing performance by us!!!! everyone played amazing today, great response from the dervy defeat :D how can arsenal say they lost because they had a weakened side? man united didnt start ronaldo, giggs, tevez, scholes and saha. ******* brilliant results today 4-0 and liverpool going out to barnsley hahahah im so happy :D nani & anderson over fabregas and flamini any day

[carrick]

I'd rather win the premier league.
hahahah who said arsenal have won the league you *Removed*. we still have to play you at old trafford :eusa_danc what a *Removed* you are saying you won the league with 12 games left, i will be laughing in ur face at the end of the season
hahahahahahaha 4-0!!!!!!! get in!!!!!!!

I wondered why I didn't like you... I've just worked it out, your that UnitedRoad guy. That's why your posts are that dire then yeah?

[carrick]

what are you on about? that post is 100% right, arsenal havent won the league yet

[Minstrels]

what are you on about? that post is 100% right, arsenal havent won the league yet
No I was just wondering why I didn't like you.

[Xeck]

We were simply awful. Found it quite funny how everyone said Rooney was amazing when to be fair.. all he did was score a goal, then miss a good amount of very good chances.

Traore was terrible, all the back four were to be fair, wished Clichy would've played and hope he's gonna play against Milan! Midfield was quite poor, can't believe we got outplayed by some of Manure's midfield [Park and Fletcher mostly, because I don't rate them at all]. Still, it's also funny that people are saying this has won United the title when we're still 5 points clear [this wasn't the league too, remember], we'll obviously play much better when we play them and both teams still have 11 other games to play. Season isn't over yet.

[carrick]

i think it was more united were amazing rather than arsenal were poor

[Geraint]

i think it was more united were amazing rather than arsenal were poor

Other way round.

[carrick]

hahahahaha i love beating arsenal

[Simmzay]

Heartbreaking performance. True ego check, not as good as we think we are. But season isn't over, looking for certain players to save the season.

[Browney]

No I was just wondering why I didn't like you.

Hes a United fan. Surely thats reason enough for a City fan? :P

And Rooney can be amazing even with scoring just the one goal by putting his heart and soul into his performance and giving 100% effort, something which Arsenal lacked. They honestly didn't look bothered about winning.

[Xeck]

i think it was more united were amazing rather than arsenal were poor

Well, I think pretty much everyone will disagree with you there.

Most Arsenal fans don't care about the result. It's just the way that they played.

[The Undertaker]

Well, I think pretty much everyone will disagree with you there.

and I'm one of them.
Arsenal did play poor & we had a lot of key players missing.
Lets just hope its not the same outcome against AC Milan.

[carrick]

Well, I think pretty much everyone will disagree with you there.

im winding you up :$

Most Arsenal fans don't care about the result. It's just the way that they played.
wrong again. i dont know any arsenal fans who didnt care about this match / result. if arsenal beat united you probably would be celebrating saying your going to win the fa cup etc. what you said is an excuse for losing.

[PaulMacC]

Im an Arsenal fan and personally if Arsenal played well and lost 4-0 I wouldnt have cared, as long as they gave it their best effort though today sucked.

[Technologic]

United were walking all over arsenal in that game

[carrick]

right im off to celebrate this victory, ill be back later to read more stupid comments. im sure greco or simmzay (true arsenal fans) will tell you that this match wasnt pointless and they wanted arsenal to beat united. what cardiff city said is just an excuse because arsenal lost.. he wanted a good performance but didnt care about the result? what a load of rubbish.

[Mortalized]

Eboue is such a dirty player.

[Xeck]

Eboue is such a dirty player.

It was defiantly a red, but I don't think Eboue meant it. I can't really explain how but I don't see why he'd deliberately do that. :|

[Greco!!]

Eboue is a dirty player, dont get me wrong he can be mint at times but i just hate it when he loses his cool

We were awful today, it hurts more than the 5-1 lose to spurs because atleast in that match we played with a bit of passion. Gotta give man u credit they didnt let us have any time on the ball and looked dangerious everytime they went forward :(

I dont think this will affect us to much mentally, I just hope we get some players back for the ac milan match

[Puma]

HOW THE F*** DO YOU FEEL ARSENAL SUPPORTERS? xD

[LOLMATT]

4-0 TO THE MAN UNITED

[Minstrels]

Hes a United fan. Surely thats reason enough for a City fan? :P

No I get along with a lot of United fans... the ones with no arrogance.

[Xeck]

No I get along with a lot of United fans... the ones with no arrogance.

Serious? Those types of United supporters are rare.

[Brody]

worse performance ive seen from the gunners in ages.

we were simply shocking this season certainly has been odd.
Tottenham 5-1 man u 4-0 how often does that happen let alone the same season yet this year we seem to be doing better.

but back to the performance
Goalkeeper: cant fault him not his fault
Defense: shocking full backs were shocking gallas and toure not usual self
Midfield: again pretty bad. like we wasnt there at times. not the usual arsenal fluency
Attack: cant really fault them. no service not there fault really

the eboue challenge was bad and deserving of a red so no complaints

Adebayor diving was dissapointing to see and hopefully i wont see it again this season

we better do better against milan

arsene wenger said this cup was not top priority but thats not an excuse losing 4-0 to man u sucks. it shouldnt happen.

haha yeh i hear alot of arsenal fans who hate eboue, the tackle was shocking and its not the first time he has tackled like that :eusa_wall

desperation

ye thats the 1 sorry :P

ade's dive is 1 of the first i have laughed at, it was that bad lol

[Minstrels]

I reckon Brown payed him to keep him from being shot and he thought a bullet was going straight at Brown so he dives infront of him with his arms out... like them body guards do in America!
