"I think Arsenal will lose at Old Trafford, The Etihad and Stamford bridge.

That is why I am not overly worried about a 5 point gap."

I take it you feel ManU will win at Etihad and SB then?

"They always lose at WHL as well."

Oh, Sandy, you clown.

Just out of interest, what are you basing your thinking on?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Just an opinion. I think away from home they will struggle to keep clean sheets at the big clubs, considering they've struggled throughout the season.

Granted Dortmund was a brilliant clean sheet last night, but I think it was an exception, as opposed to the rule.

Also the 3 clubs I have mentioned will have had further time to settle and gel and get used to their managers ways.

City look awesome at home.

Mourinho is unbeatable at home in the league(or as near as damn it)

And Man United will win simply because, in my opinion, we have to win. And our players should be confident of winning due to results in previous matches; with a majority of the same players. .

I've seen janujaz play since the start of the season, hes the most form player in your squad and thats just being polite.

That's very true Santi, followed by Rooney and then possibly Evra who gets a lot of slating generally.
No doubt about it we need to step up big time to get anything on sunday.

Then you are not a particularly good judge then

I've seen him playing for a couple of seasons and he is not only brilliant, but he can play anywhere from CM, either flank, and his best position, behind the striker.

Ox is in no way miles better than him.

And how do you think we will do away to Chelsea and Arsenal?

We've conceded more at home in the league than Arsenal have away too.

I take it you feel ManU will win at Etihad and SB then?

What has next season got to do with this?

I presume you know we have already played City at the Etihad this season

We may struggle. But I think we are good enough to take points from the games.

If you are alluding to the same point as I think HenrysCat is, we have struggled so far. We are not in good form. Arsenal are. And we have played some of the tougher teams at home, Arsenal haven't. Every team has a bad run. I just hope we don't have two bad runs

How has Macca seen Januzaj play for a couple seasons?

I though his first season for us with the u21s was last season? Do the 6 games he's played so far count as a season?

What has next season got to do with this?

I presume you know we have already played City at the Etihad this season

What happened? i honestly cant remember
I think you guys drew at Chelsea though

Januzaj been here 2.5 years

*tougher teams home and away, Arsenal haven't (for my earlier post)

Shinjisshin

But it sounds like you bais towards United is making you say Arsenal will definitely lose to Chelsea but we wont based on little evidence other than a gut feeling. Based on form surely Arsenal have the best chance of picking up points away.

I think we will improve as the season goes on but to suggest we are good enough to take points at Chelsea and Arsenal is quite naive right now.

he made a cameo for United's first XI pre-season before he made the step up to United's u21 side after starring for the U18's the previous season.

Ok fair enough, but I still wouldn't say seeing a player for 1 season at u18s, 1 season at u21s and 6 games for the first team is enough to know for sure how good a player will be.

The kid needs to be given more time, assess him at the end of the season at the earliest.

I guess some Man Utd fans are reasonable.
It might sound unbeleivable now but BEndtner was amazing at U-18 & U-21 level, most thought he would be a world beater but we all know how thats turned out.
Chelsea had kakuta & Mceachran, Likewise you guys had Macheda who some were claiming was the next Ronaldo
Even last season, Sterling at Liverpool won an England cap, and this season he's nowhere to be found.
You just never know what will happen with young players and judging them too early is a mistake we all make

I think we will improve as the season goes on but to suggest we are good enough to take points at Chelsea and Arsenal is quite naive right now.
-------------------------------------------

You think so?

Haha did you not see Robb's wheel of fortune any team can beat any team.

If Basel can win there I'm sure we can. Arsenal could too, but I don't think they will. And that is from watching Arsenal and Chelsea over the years, albeit sporadically, and knowing Wenger and Mourinho's styles.

I think Mourinho, like SAF, knows how to beat Arsenal.

Has Wenger ever beaten Mourinho?

Man City are awesome at home as I've said.

I can look at the facts, and go with the form guide from this season, but that would be as foolish as going with instincts in the big games.

Man United v Liverpool, formbook out of the window.

Did you expect Arsenal to turn Dortmund over.

I can only use what is in front of me and base MY opinion on MY instincts of interpreting the stats and facts.

Call it gut instinct or whatever you want, I can't use anything else really can I?

Ok be honest what were your instincts in Arsenals games vs Liverpool & Dortmund?

I think you'll find that your instincts are just as biased as you are

My instincts tell me you are a WUM.

I thought both games would be draws

I guess some Man Utd fans are reasonable.
------------------
I'm unreasonable because I have a high opinion on a kid I've watched star for the u18s, then star for the under 21s at only 18 years age, and now after breaking into the first IX is already starring for them too causing the opposition to double and treble up on him?

I think the kid has literally everything and what you are seeing with him now, for the first XI, is him starring and he is even not playing in his natural position. Rooney currently plays there.

I rate him higher than anything else that has come out of our reserves for a long long time. The guy has immense ability, a terrific attitude and absolutely no fear.

Sorry if that makes me unreasonable

There's nothing unreasonable about rating or raving about a young player, but to claim he's better than such & such after a few games is for the lack of a better word 'ignorant' cos who knows what will happen to him in a few years.

Ive given a few examples of playesr who lots of people belived who go on to be world stars and only a handful of them end up making it.

You might be right and Adnan might turn out to be an incredible player but to act like you know this for a fact is unreasonable
