Arsenal vs. Man U

Valencia and Nani on the flanks will help make the championship run easier this year. With Nani coming to form, let's hope Valencia feels the pressure to up his performance. With Park and Giggsy backing them up, Rooney will be the hottest goal scorer the EPL has seen in a while.

United still needs that "back to the goal" pure scorer in the mold of Van Nistelrooy. I thought Berbatov could be it, but he hasn't lived up to his potential. As soon as United finds that guy, Rooney will have as many assists as goals. Also, this fad of a single striker up front is rubbish - you need two strikers for that interplay unless you've got some energetic and prolific wingers like Ronaldo. Valencia and Nani could be those guys, but they have to be in the play more often. Yesterday was a good example of how effective that could be. Put Rooney up front, Valencia and Nani on the wings, leave Fletcher and Carrick in the middle to hold and create those breaks, and get the back four healthy and stable. I thought Rafael played a great game, esp. toward the end. As for Jonny Evans... errr... uhh... where's Rio and Nemanja?

I have to agree, Alex. His fall was rapid... Just think, May 2008 he and Vidic were the best defending pair in the world. Not even 2 years later??
I am very happy with Rafael da Silva's progress, and SAF just picked up Chris Smalling from Fulham, who may just be the next great England defender. Jonny Evans is a loss - time to cut bait there. We are well stacked in the midfield, so we need to go buy two solid defenders (kudos to the Arse on Vermaelen).

Nice work Chelsea! A 1-1 draw with Hull does us favors. Now if Arsenal wins or draws with Chelsea on Saturday and Man U wins, United will be top of the table again. I guess it'll be the rare occasion that I root for the Arse!
