Wow. A call actually went against United! De Rossi puts the spot kick into row Z. Unbelievable.

Messi will be back, but since Rijkaard has no idea what he's doing we'll lose easily at the Nou Camp and have a close game at Old Trafford. 4-1 aggregate.

I predict a 'Pool v Man U final.

The bit I find most supprising about that article is that Ancellotti has a guaranteed job next year, Berlusconi has to be up near the top of the impatient chairmen table.

Thank God. Sell him, Deco, Henry, Zambrotta, Marquez, Thuram, Edmilson, and Gudjonsen while they're at it. This team needs to get younger and faster (like Man U.).... grumble grumble....

Getting a new goalie wouldn't hurt either, Valdez was utter **** today and cost us 2 extra points.

HUGE win for Man U. Great comeback. I don't think anyone expected Hargreaves to take that FK.

Quieroz (sp.?) should get a lot of credit for your team, dude is a genius.

Don't tell that to Real Madrid fans! Although many think that he was pretty good for them but got forced into bad decisions by the big wigs.

Anyways, yea, Queiroz has been great as Sir Alex's consilgere, good tactition and great eye for talent.

One of the big moves today was Sir Alex throwing Anderson into the fray. He was awesome when he was on, all over the pitch kept the ball moving and fought for a ton of balls in front of his own box. great performance.

one of the benefits of Sirius - channel 125 often plays Radio 606 from england outside of matches.

so I'm listening after the man u/gunners match yesterday on my way to the home depot center.

I can't believe all the Arsenal fans calling and complaining that Wenger is the source of their problems (neither could the hosts).
So they're not at tops of the table. All of a sudden Wenger has no clue what he's doing?

(of course as a spurs fan I enjoy it - something to laugh at while they sit mid-table)

Wenger ain't the problem. My opinion is that Fabregas and the young gang were overachieving earlier in the season and hence raised their expectations a bit too much. Sure they have great young talent, but Arsenal cannot compete with the talents like Christian Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney AND the stingy Man U defense. Of course losing Eduardo was a huge blow and look how badly they've played without him.

Wenger can be a bit of a douchebag, like yesterday suggesting there is some huge conspiracy against Arsenal but he is a great manager. He has a great eye for talent and a great developer of talent. I guess sports talk radio is the same around the world, only idiots seem to call in!

I think the one questionable move Wenger tried yesterday, starting Lehmann actually paid off as he made a bunch of key saves. Pundits seemed to think that starting that Song fellow who I had never seen was a bit odd but I think Senderos has been so bad that he had no other option.

He probably should have started Walcott just to see how the kid could do in a big clash like this over 90 minutes. He's proven to be a game changer as a sub, but since Arsenal had pretty much nothing to play for(Premier League still a stretch) I think it would have been a good move to start Walcott over Eboue.

They did overachieve a bit, losing Eduardo hurt, especially now that Adebayor's confidence is basically shot. Wenger has no real other options unless he wants to play RVP up front.

I think Arsenal's first choice 11 is capable of winning the league, what their main problem in my eyes is they don't have a big squad. Certainly not big enough to try and compete in 3 competitions. The Man U game is a perfect example, Ferguson was able to throw Anderson and Tevez into the fray. Wenger threw on Walcott a fine talent, but also Bendter(promising player but right now just a guy who can win high balls), and Hoyte. Not exactly the cavalry. Wenger is a fine manager, Arsenal needs give give him a bigger transfer budget though. Finding young talent is essential and good and all but you have to be able to make that big buy if you want to make an impact.

if anything that's what I felt Wenger might try. It was a game they had to win, nothing to lose. after some of those runs in the CL game why not start him and see how many scoring chances he can get you.
