After recent displays by United, im not so sure we will beat them.
There is a severe lack of 'football' about us at the moment and it seems to be a case of hoofing the ball in the air in desparation.
The team is constantly changed on a weekly basis by Fergie which is really frustrating as it disrupts the team; many of the players seem to have simply forgotten where and how they are supposed to be playing and the general morale of the team is down. The defence looked so poor in midweek against Sparta Prague; it's almost like if Rio's not playing, the defence aren't playing and the attacks not much different.
One important fact is that if we don't beat Arsenal on Sunday then I would say farewell to our title chances this season, that may be the single reason to spur United on to winning on Sunday but it won't be easy - thats for sure. Writing off our title chances at such an early stage in the league is beyond depressing.
So come on United, let's see what you are made of.
Predictions and any views on where the match will be won and loss please.

I'm not a big fan of Thierry Henry but when he's playing there's no stopping him. Arsenal are going to win it, no doubt in my mind.
Middlesbrough did well when they travelled to Highbury so I reckon they've got a good chance when they're at home.
Just you watch...just you watch.

Buh? What sort of logic is that?
Liverpool last season at highbury...Henry went past em like they wernt even there.

I see someone like Bolton ending Arsenal's run. I think Liverpool stand more of a chance then United. The United defence just can't hold out.

I disagree.
I heard Paul Gascoigne's new name on that Tim Lovejoy show, Wednesday night. I couldn't believe it...
Surely, he doesn't really want to be known as "G8", does he??
This has got to be some kind of PR 'boosting' thing to bring back his lost attention to hisself; to make him a star again - sort of like when David Brent did that awful dating show in The Office...

Anyway, at his age, you can say Wayne Rooney has the potential to live-on for far longer than "Gazza" managed to before his late-night lifestyle got the better of his ageing mind - but, also, I guess you could've said the same thing about him, after Italia '90, too?

If United win this, it'll mark a return to form; a loss would be a showing of disgrace, and a draw would pretty much be the pundits' expectations met. However, I think that Arsenal will be on the recieving end here- United's forwards are all now fully fit, and the defence is now tighter than it has been for some time, having only conceded 2 goals in the past 5 games. If Reyes, Henry and co can be contained, that's half the battle won. Being aware of the fact that attack has not been one of United's strong points recently, I hope now is the time for consistency to return. I hope for a win for United here, although a draw is more likely.
I can see Rooney having a terrible game. Mainly because Arsenal have a decent defense and Rooney is over-rated and over-weighted. Let's face it, he'll be G8 mk 2.
