But he has scored again. Only a Worth-Nothing cup game, but they all count, as Dudek well knows. Forlan is finally finding regular scoring form, and his confidence must be soaring now. But this weekend will put him to the test. Once again he will be called upon to perform at the highest level.
Personally, I stand by my predication that Utd will struggle to get any points from this game, but should Utd win, and should the winner come from one Diego Forlan, I think we will see Forlan become a 20 league goal per season striker, no problem.
He has the potential. Anyone who's even briefly viewed Forlan's history at Independiente will know that he can really bang them in.
6 goals so far this season may not be the highest goalscoring ratio, but it puts him a far cry from "Diego the Dud" who had been struggling to get anything at any level.
No, Forlan is on form, and after this weekend, he could be right up there with some of the best strikers in the Premiership. This weekends game will be interesting if only to see who scores the goals. Van the man? Henry? Wiltord? Forlan? Solskjaer?
Henry, Nistelrooy and Forlan are all on form. It's going to be a damn good game!

As much as I hate to back up Wookiee, but of the 32 teams that qualified for the first group stage of the Champions League, Basle were ranked 32th.

I've said no such thing. In fact, I've made no claims as to what Arsenal will achieve this season, and I have actually said that I don't think we'll win the Champion's League. There's a very long way to go yet, and Arsenal may not even end up in the top 5! So kindly stop putting words in my mouth.
> I think you need a reality check.
No, my feet are firmly on the ground, thank you. United have done well to win games while not playing well, but they have been fortunate that some of their opposition have been in worse shape than they have.
Those who need the reality check are those who think that beating these under-par teams means that United are back to their best.
> Arsenal aren't running away with anything.
Have I said anywhere that they are? You've managed to turn the conversation from "are United back to their best" to arguing with comments about Arsenal that I haven't made. Congratulations!

I hardly think that the next two games will be the final determinant of who qualifies for next years Champion's League.

Did I say we were unbeatable? Nope. We had a great unbeaten run, but that was bound to end sometime. So we've lost 3 league games in what, 11 months?And we *usually* have a good run in the second half of the season. So *if* we're top at Christmas, who knows where that could leave us?
> Get your head out of the clouds.
Oh, don't worry - I'm nowhere near as high as some United fans have been. That's why it didn't hurt when losing to Everton brought us back down to earth.

Tell "Stuart Chapman" that he is an abhorrent nefarious buffoon. A contemptible, squalid impertinent philistine.
Why? Because they beat us last season?
I recall a 6-1 victory for Man Utd not TOO long ago.
Arsenal are a good team, but some of their fans should get their heads out of their backsides.
Have a nice day.
