My oh my, I never tought it was that simple to beat Arsenal
Teamwork, composure, possesion.. We had everything planned and it worked PERFECT.
What satisfied me the most is how we handled Arsenal from not scoring. I still can’t believe how this side lost against City nd West Ham.
Some magical stuff by everyone.
But I have to say that for me Fletcher was the man of the match.
I know that Rooney may have played slightly a little bit better than Fletcher but we all know what Rooney’s capable of.. But only some know what Fletcher is capable of.
How could this man score against such a big side? He could because he is not bad at all, he is only underrated. Not only his commitment to United is superb but today he gave an answer to those who underrate this special man. And he is truly special, and he made me feel proud to support the team, this man’s part of
Everyone gave his part. Arsenal were like drunk men running on the pitch.
And yes, Fabregas tipped one of the best in the world was there. Adebayor also gave his part at the end but no no, against our defence he was invisible.
So I’m still waiting to see what your excuses are now
Oh nd what about Eboue’s sent off and Adebayor’s dive? nd then you call Ronaldo a diver? You shouldn’t have watched this one.
What about Carrick’s magical passing? Rooney’s chances? Anderson’s movement or Nani’s tricks?
Carrick and Anderson both should have deserved a goal today because they were awesome.
It was just a fabolous performance.
Nd well, we got this score without Ronaldo so you shouldn’t dare calling United a one man team one more time because today was the prove of some silly **** you might say: Fletcher IS very underrated & We are NOT a one man team.
So, now Arsenal are out of the FA Cup and so are Liverpool .. You can consolate each other
PROUD TO BE A RED DEVIL TILL DEATH !!

what a good and royal thrashing, ouplayed in every part of the pitch, I now understand why Ferguson claimed Anderson is more than a match for Fabregas, splendid perfomance from him, not only held the midfield together but also started most of the attacks and he kept Fab very Drab, next time Gallas claims Manutd are “arrogant and complacent”, he should stand in front of his mrrior and slap himself a few times.

Smart move watering the middle of the field too…taking advantage of Arsenal’s second string fullbacks by attacking from the sides. Brilliant use of home field advantage.
Eboue’s sendoff was the reason so many Arsenal fans hate Eboue…he’s just an idiot. But watch Adebayor’s “dive” again and notice who’s standing on his foot.
A thorough drubbing, for which ManU is to be congratulated. But with Nani’s showboating and Rooney’s pathetic timewasting, I’ll be looking forward to clinching the league at Old Trafford.

Ah yea, Nani’s showboating that you weren’t even capable of handling it.
Oh, nd Rooney’s pathetic timewasting ? I think the real timewasting was when Adebayor ‘fell’ into the box and the match had to stop. Or else those 2 stupid fouls Eboue made and again, the referee had to stop the match TWICE.
That’s the REAL timewasting.

Gunner, you’re a ****ing idiot.
Have fun taking second place this year. Nani’s “showboating” proved to work against your incompetent full backs.
Go **** yourself. Actually, just wait till the end of the season and you’ll want to do it yourself.

NO ARSENAL!
Lehman had a freaking ****** *** game! Another reason he should have gone to Brussia Dortmund in the summer!
**** Man Utd! you guys played an awsome game! the p***ing, the dribbling, all perfect! being an Arsenal fan, im mad that we got knocked out, but Man. Utd. looked like they deserved it. Lets have a round of aplause for Man. Utd.
I just hope Arsenal does not play like that against AC Milan!
Ill be waiting for our next match up in the league!

I know Arsenal had some injuries.. but yea, that’s football right ? if you don’t like it , go play the match in your playstation.
Nani ? joining Chelsea ??? HAHAHAHAHA one thing is for sure, I thing there’re probably the same competition for midfilders in Chelsea and united, plus going to Chelsea is like a downgrade.

Are you kidding me? He was the only good Arsenal player on the pitch.
I know this may sound wierd, but Man U definitley deserved this. ALso, I felt they would have drawed if Ronaldo/Tevez had been playing.
My Ratings:
Arsenal:
Lehmann: 9/10 - What a game for him. Would have been 9-0 without him.
Hoyte: 6/10 - He tried to stop Nani/Anderson, he couldn’t. Part of this was on Eboue.
Gallas: 5/10 - I honestly don’t know what happened to him today!
Toure 8/10 - He put in 200%, he never gave up.
Traore 6/10: He played very hard, but was left to keep up with way too much.
Eboue 2/10 - Dreadful. He made way too many mistakes, and left a huge task for Hoyte. Nasty tackle.
Fabregas: 6/10 - Not much he could do. United were defending and marking him very well.
Gilberto 6/10: He tried hard. He honestly tried really hard, but it’s not working. He’ll do a lot better at another club. It’s time to move on.
Hleb: 6/10 - OK. HE didn’t look very concerned.
Eduardo 5/10 - HE NEEDS TO STOP PLAYING SO COOLY AND CASUALLY! He is not TH14! He needs to realize he needs to push harder!
Bendtner 5/10: HE had no faults or rights. He was virtually non existent.
I do think injuries are biting though.
Good Job MU! May the best man win ( the Prem)

very true, eduardo is WAY too casual. bendtner can get up in the air and has somewhat of a shot but has a virtually non-existent left foot. Eboue shows some of the immaturity of the arsenal side. Wenger needs to tell them to clean up their act and stop trying to be so tough.
Arsenal’s discipline is abhorent in the big games. The fights last year were shambolic and that tackle by fabregas in the chelsea game show that not much has changed.

well…it separated the men from the boys…we took the gooners to school and showed them how football should be played…
credit to the boys - outstanding performance w/out giggsie, ronny or tevez. great confidence by fergie not even putting ronny on the bench…
great game for fletch, roo and nani.
credit to lehmann saved them from utter humiliation would have been 8-0 by my count if it wasn’t for him…
van der sar could have gone home after the first half - think he touched the ball once in the second half

now that ought to get nani more games. i love giggsy but nani is very good and should start more often or, at the very least, be the first-choice midfild sub. also, lehmann should have wrapped up his role as the arsenal and german #1 after that game.

Myths disproven:
1. Arsenal are better than us
2. Arsenal play pretty footy, esp prettier than us
3. Rooney is garbage
4. Fletcher is bad (Hes now played in 7 of 9 of our 4+ goal games, we should play him more often)
5. Park is bad
6. Saha can’t go a game without being injured
7. Nani has no end product (2 assists, 1 goal)
8. Fabregas is better than Anderson
9. Fabregas is good in big games
10. United can’t play without Ronaldo
11. United have no team spirit
12. Arsenal have a good team spirit
13. Arsenal play an honest game
14. United dive more than Arsenal
15. Arsenal have depth
16. Adebayor is amazing, and he shows up against big teams
17. United don’t have depth
18. Arsenal have a chance at the treble
19. SAF needs to be sacked
20. Carrick is useless
21. Wenger never complains to refs (35-36)
—
Fletcher for MotM. He does it again. he has been involved in 7 our of the 9 games this season where we have scored 4+ goals.
Anderson outclassed Fabregas by miles. Cesc was walking around the pitch like a zombie, and his passing matched that. Anderson was stealing balls, passing well, beating players, holding the ball well, moving, creating, assisting (rooney), and shooting.
eboue, toure, bendtner, and adebayor were acting like children. eboue went cuck norris on evra. toure kicked nani out of frusteration after the play, cause he was angry at being owned so thoroughly. bendtner was diving. Adebayor was diving (dont make excuses), and then he gave vidic a little ‘nudge’ after vidic had knocked tha ball out.
Arsenal, you may think you do, but you really have no depth. And if anyone actually marks you in the midfield, as opposed to letting fabregas have a few minutes to make a pass, then the whole game falls apart. and dont say lehman had a bad game and that was the reason… if he hadnt had such a good game, it would have been doubled.
gunner- are you serious? are you seriously complaining that you lost due to tactics??? isnt that kinda the point? and why dont you get some more wingbacks. again, NO DEPTH! Excuses as to why you lost, and excuses as to why adebayor fell. he dived!!! shut up and go cry about it why dont you!
And dont complain about nani’s showboating. i thought it was hilarious. theres beating someone, theres outclassing them, and theres what we did to you. the players were expressing their true selves: arsenal were getting owned and being pu$$ies about it, and united were playing around them, scoring, and having a laugh while they do it.
why would nani join chelsea? whoever wrote that needs to get off whatever theyre on. nani is getting time, which will increase in the future, and hes playing well. hes happy here, with ronaldo and carlos Q and anderson… why would he leave. besides, chelsea are a step down in terms of quality and trophies from united

Good sportsmanship shown by ‘Oh.. Really’ and Morin Kashi. ManUtd fans should not get too complacent and cocky too, as we still have a long way to go.. What we can do is just pray that Utd will continue to do great stuff like this every match and win all 3 trophies! May the best team wins!!

Injuries my foot, United played without Ronaldo, Tevez, Giggs, Hargreaves and Scholes for most of the game! Adebayor’s dive was pathetic, Gunner and Eboue taking AGES to walk off the playing surface is the real timewasting! Up United!

Well, Well, Well….What A Whooping!!!!
I’m the first to say that i dissed Fletcher (Rox) all of the time but he was GREAT today and so was the whole team.
Anderson has so much promise that’s it’s crazy and did you see Nani’s half backflip….Whoo!!!.
No real boasting is needed because it’s only what we should be doing so i’m just content….and real talk, it’s only Arsenal.
We need to focus on Lyon now because what’s done is done and remember we have Arsenal in the league to come so that chapter is not over yet…..cause we WANT THAT LEAGUE & FA CUP & OLD BIG EARS a.k.a. The European Cup.

Hey, Great game by the lads. Anderson was jsut fantastic today. he completely took fabergas and the out of the game. It was nice to see fletcher get two goals as he is really underrated. rooney was lively as were carrick and nani. i hve to agree that the two or three arsenal fans who posted their comments were true to thier word and not making any excuses.

But at least I can respect our players MORE than you.
Supporting a team means that you have to respect everyone involved.
And no, no one knows O’Shea nd Fletcher are **** or whatever you wanted to write there.
Who was the man who won us that important match against Liverpool last season?
Who’s the man who scored the brace today in such an important match?
…. Carrick nd Hargreaves are bad?
Do you watch Tom or Jerry or football hun, ’cause you’re making me feel in doubt about that.

and hargreaves is just a kicker….he contributes very little.
and whats with people saying “i was wrong bout fletcher” just cos he plays 1 good game.
man utd need consistently good players not chancers like fletcher.
kleberson,veron and forlan all had the odd good game but they were sold and rightly so.
same should happen fletcher and o shea
