Arsenal v ManYoo

Sunderland v Millwall or Tranmere

Noooooo.

I was so sure we would meet in the final.

Bring it on biotch :¬P

Here's a comment from a devoted Gooner in Iceland after the draw was made:

Hello to you. As a big fan of Arsenal I would be delighted to see my heroes walk over Man United and stroll on to the final to complete the tribble (sic).

As a United fan, I'd also like to wish Arsenal the best of luck in their bid to win the Tribble.

;)

Pot calling kettle black there. And if i remember right in that game your Arsenal players didn't really need much encouragement to hit the deck. Plus was also the scene of the most blatant piece of acting i've seen when Scholes kicked the ball at Lauren which hit him in his family jewels and then he waited for 5 seconds before actually registering something had hit him and even then writhed around holding his face. Oscar winner that boy isn't

Throws up a quick fact:

'Man Utd have not lost a domestic semi-final under Ferguson since he took over as United manager in 1986'

Not bad at all, lets hope it continues :)

Should be a decent encounter, by then we should have a couple of our senior defenders back and Ole should be in contention too. I can see a heated encounter coming up and Wookie no point talking about United players fouling because the Arsenal players have hardly got the best of records!

If we show no desire.

No, I mean when we beat you 2-0 at OT in last year's Cup! :-)

I can see this being another ill-tempered match, when Keane & co get fed up with the getting the run-around and start kicking masters like Henry and Bergkamp up in the air! ;-p

I can personally see United wiining, such is their desire to win trophies now that the Premiership is ARSEnal's.

And ManYoo are worse.

Will still be a tough game though. As we know from last year, when they can't outplay us, they try to kick chunks out of us.

Even if you Man U fans will say 'think back to 1999' but we're a much better team then back then.
