have faith man! 


they lost 6 points in 2 games only a matter of weeks ago ... and that was when the CL pressure ramped up - it's just about to do the same, with the arsenal games they have coming up

I don't get your point, mate.  Arsenal play the Mancs twice in the CL well before they play them in the league.  If they manage to beat the Mancs in the CL and reach the final, they still play them in the league some 11 days before the final in Rome.  Resting players in their league game against the Mancs with the CL in mind should not be on Wenger's agenda.

even with a CL final in the offing?


remember our league form in the tail end of 2005 after we won the SF?

Mate, I remember our league form in 2005 before we won the semi-final....weren't very pretty either.

Seriously, Wenger would be very foolish indeed to rest his best players against Man U in the league match on March 16th.  For one, he'll need to keep his players match sharp if he's preparing for a final.  For two, he'll have 11 days before the final to recuperate any players that pick up knocks (although this is Arsenal we're talking about...they're all made of fecking glass).  No, I expect he'll play a strong team at Old Trafford that day.  The more likely time for a weakened side will be in their last game against Stoke.

Thats true but do you believe Citeh will put up more than spirited resistence?  I doubt it, they´re simply not good enough.

i've know how that match will go... Citeh will take the lead.. In the 2nd half last 15 mins mannure will equalise and in the last min will be a mannure victory...

or...

Citeh will take a 2-0 lead and mannue will win 4-2!

Easily predictable..
