    So far it's looking like United are the bottlers! The pressure's all on them.

    There's no reason why Arsenal should fail to beat Sunderland at home. I seem to remember United being nowhere for a couple of years not so long back.

    That's true I suppose, but I was talking about in the league.

    Arsenal will beat Sunderland. NQAT
    They've also got a much easier run in than Utd. Their only difficult games left are United and Spurs.

    I just pray Fergie selects Wes Brown rather than Jonny Evans on Sunday.
    Either way, I'm hoping he'll try and go for the throat and play 4-4-2 to compensate for having to use such a makeshift back 4.
    Attack being the best form of defense and all that.
    I'd expect Berbs to get his place back and Chico to drop back to the bench too.

    Well, we should have done better against Sunderlnad, but on another day, with a decent ref, we'd have won 3-0 - yet the idiots in the media try and make out they deserved a draw. If we'd won 3-0 they'd have said we'd cruised to a comfortable victory. It's annoying the way they just bend over for United, yet put up some resistance against us.

    Anyway, if we manage to win our game in hand this time we'll be level on points with United... In fairness I'd rather United stay in the lead 'til right near the end in many ways, so the pressure will be on them and not us. Preferably they'd be top, but we'd have a game or two in hand and only 2nd on goal difference.

    Just have to forget about the CL now, in a way I'd like to see an English team win it, but I think it should be Arsenal who are the first London team to win it, and Man U have too many annoying glory hunter fans where I live... Though it would be funny if such a relatively mediocre side won the CL.

    In a way it's a good thing we don't have a Prem game next, but if we lose we'll have gone out of 3 competitions in under 2 weeks, dunno how the players would react to that, and of course United are big favourites for the Cup. It's the clash with Man U in the Prem that I care about, but I want us to go into the rest of the Prem games in top form and with the right mentality...

    I suppose if Man U won the CL in a really flukey and undeserved way, especially over Barca, then that would be acceptable.

    united are veterans when it comes winning titles and grinding out results in the latter stages of the season

    all the pressure is going to be on arsenal

    Porto had some great players back then with the likes of Deco and co, plus Mourinho as manager. It's harder to argue about Liverpool, they had some very good players and just played a tactical, defensive game I suppose.

    And the starting line up only had one player who wasn't Portuguese, you don't see that very often in a CL final.

    united through to the quarter finals of the champions league then

    it was a bit nervy at the end last night, we were missing vida though, think we should of had a pen in the first half when nani was brought down but haven't seen any replays

    marseille had some good chances, their fans are insane

    chico

    How are their fans insane? And Nani's back already? I hoped he'd be out longer! I'm not sure I like Chico so much any more.

    yeah nani's back, the injury was just a graze

    after seeing the highlights it was actually chico who was brought down, deffo a pen

    the marseille fans were pretty intense, they made a lot of noise and a few didn't respect the minutes silence at the start of the game, they were shouting something when edwin took goal kicks too
