Hopefully we can get a good dominant win , and I think we have a good chance of it with most of thier players out . We will see tommorow night when they play Fenebanche how they cope with loads of players out.
Also if that Carlos Vela starts he can be very dangerous and theres always Fabregas so we cant take the win for granted.
But anyway, predicting a 2-0 win with Ronaldo and Rooney on the scoresheet.

Wenger expects Gallas and Walcott to be fit for the Utd game.

not afraid of Walcott, Evra is more then capable of dealing with his pace. Gallas is a ticking timebomb.

walcott is supposedly out but adebayor maybe in. all in all utd need to take this game very seriously, arsenal need the three points and we cannot afford to lose. rough them up i say, out run them and take every chance that comes our way. rio, vida, evra and whomever plays rightback hopefully brown for me, must be alert and concentrate for 90 mins plus, we have to beat them and also no goals conceded would be a fab bonus. arsenal regardless of what happened against stoke are a top team and are more than capable of winning this one.

Adebayor will be out of action for three weeks apparently; therefore, Le Arse will be without their two key front men on Saturday. Van Persil got red-carded against Stoke, and is out for 3 games I think. Whether Theo will play remains to be seen; Evra can handle him though.
Our central defence will have to deal with Bendtner and Vela.
I think we have a real chance on Saturday, as long as we stay focussed for the whole 90 minutes. The lack of concentration is something that has manifested itself in several games this season.
Arsenal are no mugs, even with a weakened team; as their youngsters have proven. They can pass the ball until the cows come home!
I'll go for 2-1 to United, with Berba and Ronaldo on the scoresheet.

I have never liked Arse ne Wenger (he must have copped it as a kid with that name). He is too piggy arrogant. He make the players nancy boys. I will never forget the poorest display I have seen on a pitch with the hassle they gave Van Niselrooy, appalling.
It's good for us with so many injured Arsenal players, though as stated we cannot take this lightly. They need a win and arguably this is a six pointer. One of the games that counts at the end of the season.
I hope Giggs screams up the wing, around five defenders and smacks it into the top of the net (a replay of my favourite United goal and favourite FA match, and favourite footballing year).

Cristiano Ronaldo says United can take solace in the Reds' commanding second half performance against Celtic, despite not finding the goals to secure a victory.
Ronaldo's closest attempt in the first half was a rasping free kick that flew just over the bar, and six minutes from time his shot was too hot to handle for Celtic keeper Artur Boruc, who spilled the ball into Ryan Giggs' path.
The Welshman headed United level with the rebound to earn a point, which Ronaldo said United should not be ashamed of.
"We had enough chances to win but a draw is good," he told MUTV. "We now have eight points and it looks like we're through to the next round.
"Sometimes the goal doesn't come but in the second half we played fantastically and created a lot of chances. We played in their half of the pitch and played a lot better in the second half.
"We could have scored more than one. The goalkeeper made a few good saves, but sometimes it's not possible to score goals. Last week we scored four goals, tonight we scored one goal. Celtic didn't cause us any problems in the second half, so I think we deserved the point."
Ronaldo and co. now gear up for a trip to the Emirates Stadium to face Arsenal on Saturday lunchtime. He added: "The aim is not to lose a game. We came [to Celtic] to win three points. It wasn't possible tonight but we did get one point and now we're thinking about the next game. I think the team is playing well."
------------------------------------------
Hopefully the team stays focused and forget that just because Arsenal are off usual form, this fixture is always a tough one. Strong defence will be the key i feel.

Well Fergusons mentioned how the arrival of Maradona sparked an incredible training session so the players will be itching to get out on the field and put the hurt on Arsenal. This is where we start our surge up the table come on the reds!.

We are jumping over ourselves thinking that Arsenal are without their strikers and we can rue them. But such attitude from both the fans and players will only bring us misery. Let us focus on our training and not undermine the opposition. One fights hardest when down.

2-1, think we could possibly get a clean sheet. You can't write arsenal off though.

Don't underestimate Arsenal. They always give us a challenge, even when they have injuries. We just need to focus on our game, and as long as we are solid at the back and finish our chances, we should be strong enough. Three points at this juncture would be perfect.

Think we will dominate tbh, they have no forwards, if we get an early goal and then get into them they will fold. Im glad Van Pervy is out like him as a player (he was a real knob tho last week) Adebayor needs more chances than our own 'leg end' Andy Cole (funny no one goes on about him like they used to about Coley eh? ![???](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y135/tayetaye/what.gif) ?) Bendtner - well not much to say here is there. At least William 'fag' Gallas is there to steady the ship - lol! I think a win is a distinct possibility - 2 or 3 goals to the good

Arsenal playing like shite, massive injury problems etc. This is all set up for them to bounce back against the odds if we don't approach the game in the right frame of mind. Utd should win this, we owe them down there big time, but there won't be more than a goal in it I reckon.

I think we'll win this one, but it's not going to be easy, if we score first Arsenal will raise their game. I see it being a close 2:1 we have the edge in front of goal. Ronaldo to score first 2:1 to Utd.
I reckon Arsenal will start the stronger as they usually do and it'll take us 20 minutes to get going and hopefully we'll go on from there and dominate the game.
