United need just one point to be crowned champions for the 3rd consecutive time.  .  .will the Gunners let them have it?

  Sir Alex has been nothing short of a soccer genius this season with his ideas, formations, and player rotations. Proved effective in the UCL and EPL.  Now as the Red Devils prepare to receive Arsenal at Old Trafford, it's without a doubt that the old man's mind is brimming with new ideas for that solo point.
  United have got most of their key players fit and ready for action.  .  .Rio Ferdinand who has been out with a rib injury is expected back for this game. He might get a few minutes to prep him for the UCL final coming up at the end of the month. It's not certain that Tevez will get a start against Arsenal like he did in the UCL semis.  .  .remains to be seen.
  Can United give a repeat performance of that fateful UCL night at the Emirates? Or will they lose all points?

   Arsene Wenger maintains his Arsenal attack are as good as Manchester United and intends to prove the point by delaying the champions elect a title party with victory at Old Trafford on Saturday.
  The Gunners have little other than restoring wounded pride left to play for, given they are now secure in fourth place in the Premier League and were handed a European lesson when outclassed over two legs in the Champions League semi-final against United.
  Main cause of their woes could be their defense, and with the more experienced Clichy and Gallas still out injured, it's not certain that there will be no holes. But, Almunia is still a very good GK.
  This time around, we should see Arshavin the assassin put in an appearance.  .  .Vidic will have a lot of work to do if that happens. In fact, the entire United back line will have some serious work to do this time with Arshavin complementing the fast paced Walcott, and the skilled Nasri. And as Arsenal are out to salvage some severely wounded pride, their attack will have a more dangerous edge.

  This absolutely promises to offer a lot of skill and pace.

win
lose
draw
it really dosesn't matter!what matters is that the 2008/09 season HAS been won by Manchester United

@cristalz
was it not hard for you to write something positive about a team that has lost inspiration in the past few weeks?u must have done a lot of research just to have something nice to say bout dem gunners

see you next season cos the 08/09 season is a wrap

Lose this one and let's see if it wrapped up or not ! Remember LIVERPOOL is right at your back !

Arshavin set to return for Old Trafford trip
By Declan Taylor

Andrey Arshavin will return against Manchester United after fully recovering from flu.

The Russian was sent home from training twice in a row last week because of illness and sat out Sunday’s defeat against Chelsea. But he is available for this weekend’s trip to Old Trafford.

However, Arsène Wenger has no other returning stars for the clash. William Gallas and Gael Clichy are both out for the season and Manuel Almunia is still struggling with an ankle injury, although he might return for the final game of the campaign against Stoke.

“Andrey Arshavin is fully fit,” Wenger said at Thursday’s press conference.

“Gallas, Clichy, Eduardo and Almunia won’t be available but everyone else will be.

“Almunia has a little chance to play against Stoke. I want to play the players who have played the most games against Stoke so if he is available he will play.”

The only person that can stop the Man-U's celebration is arshavin. This guy needs to be checked throughout the 90 mins play. It is not over until its over. Coz Lpool is a team that I know cannot slip up through the next games coming ahead, a slip for Man U today, then the league if off their hands.

Goodluck to whoever.

ass-shavin can't stop us from wrapping it up on home soil.

One thing is Sure . . .Man UTD won't be crowned Champs tmrw . . .next weekend i guez . . .or an upset. losing their last two games
