10 reasons why I found Man Utd beating Arsenal 1 - 0 in the FA Cup yesterday particularly satisfying.
1: After a couple of seasons suffering from terrible injuries, both Darren Fletcher and Wes Brown had excellent games, and were integral to the victory.
2: Fergie got it right tactically, rather than simply encouraging the players to kick chunks out of the opposition.
3: Arsene Wenger turning to the Ruud Gullit shcool of football management - add another striker - and another - and don't worry about the midfield.
4: Thierry Henry believing the hype, and trying to score from 30 yards with his first touch - thankfully it was blocked.
5: Ronaldo's trickery producing an end product on almost every ocassion.
6: Keeping a clean sheet after such recent defensive horror shows, and a second clean sheet against the Gunners this season.
7: What's more, we haven't been beaten by the Gunners this season. Not many other teams can say that.
8: Oh, and you can't keep the FA Cup now either.
9: And you're not Gunner do the treble. There's only one team that's achieved that particular standard.
10: Alan Hansen got it wrong.
Still, we're in a lose - lose situation with the final. If we beat the 1st division team, well we were expected to do so any way. If we lose (and I'm not ruling that out) then we're a laughing stock.
Don't worry though, you've still got the league. Even if you stumble against Liverpool and Newcastle, we'll help you out by taking points from Chelsea...
