MANU

The rivalry between these 2 teams in recent times is well documented. The fracas at OT where RVN fell on his arse as if he was hit by a falling meteor (My Manu friends will disgaree) and the war of words that always seems to happen between the 2 managers now seems like a thing of the past. Both managers have had good things to say about each other.
This is always one of the games of the season and there will be a record 75000 people at the Theatre of Dreams for this clash. Shadowed by the money and success of Chelsea over the past 2 seasons is a different thing but the fact remains that Arsenal and Manu are 2 of the best teams in the world in terms of the football they play.
It will be very strange to see a Manu-Arsenal clash without Keane or Vieira. When both these giants left their respective clubs, there were real doubte over whether they will be able to cope with this. But both teams have shown that the have not been hit hard.
Arsenal will look to play a 4-5-1 that has been so effective in Europe. It will be interesting to see how Neville fairs against Reyes. Cesc will again play a crucial role and AW will hope that this prodigy will dominate midfield as he has been doing.
A very interesting battle on the cards...
