Rooney

If he had missed that he would have been rollicked for not just controlling it and shooting, or even heading.

I think it was a bit too high to control and a little bit behind head it.

I see Giggsy has signed a years contract with Man Utd. Will he play less games next year? I don't think so. Outstanding player.

Glad to see he's signed for another year. As bad as this may sound, I can't help thinking he'll start ahead of young players who need games. I hope I'm proved wrong.

there's those people who understand football and then theres leak

What I mean is that people were saying Rooney is back to his best because he shinned it into the goal.

back to his best when hes scored 2 goals in 2 weeks wouldnt say its his best

hi, torres here.. I'd go back and quote you then me, but you know, dont want to bring up happy memories of his rise back to form *cough* incase you miss him.

Nice point today. Don't really know what happened in the game, will watch Match of the Day tonight. Any thoughts Bocsh?

pretty pissed off as we had a chance to go a point behind man u and apparently were battering but our finishing was awful espically Arshavins

but good point for you

seems like arsenal can blame the lino, Arshavin was being kept on by Ferdinand and then on the other occasion Bramble on Arshavin in the box

Arshavin's goal was definatly on side. It hasn't been his best season for the Gunners, only really the Barcelona game i can remember having a good game. Sami Nasri has been tremendous for you's though.

Mignloet in goal for us has a great game. If he's up for it he's great but other times he is terrible. Looks like Craig Gordan is out for the season so hopefully he has a bit of confidence after this game.

Titus Bramble. He's back to his old tricks. Very lazy. He was great at the begining o the season but I think that is hugely down to Michael Turner. Bramble (like Anton Ferdinand) need to play along side a leader, being told what to do. He can't lead the back four. Turner is a leader can control others.

anyone got the highlights i missed it

Watch MotD 2 tonight?

Missed that as well lol

but the 4-4 draw that we had with newcastle isnt looking that bad now it could be the point that wins us the league

lovely win for us, we played a very fluid game with maxi and meireles drifting in from out wide and finding space, still have reservations about our midfield when we come up against a 4-5-1/4-3-3 formation

A well deserved win for your lot, no complaints whatsoever.

No doubt some will use THAT tackle as a smokescreen though.

utd didnt attack. Even I was embarrassed for them. Cannot believe how tentative they were. Was a nasty tackle but if i were a utd fan i'd be blaming fergies approach for the loss not cheap excuses. That and carrick being shite. Technically the worst team to win the prem if they manage it this year?

Yep, and by far and away the most average team to win it also(which we won't anyway).

still can't believe how much arsenal are bottling it after all these years, so many chances to move top and now 2 competitions they have been dumped out of, morale has to be low.

who's your money on bazz?

forgot to add, because this year they had such a good chance for silverware and the league title itself imo has been theirs to lay claim to, but they have not yet managed it.

I think Arsenal will beat Utd in the cup and Man Utd will win the league. I can see Man City finishing second also

apparently we losing clichy at the end of the season as hes been putting off contract talks for the past 2 years and its up soon and Wenger said instead of losing the money he rather get money for him by selling him and so far Spurs have made a bid for him
