United really needs to get 1-2 more goals or else they might regret it in the second leg. The first one was kind of a fluke as two men were completely unmarked inside the 6 year box. Who is this Gibbs guy? Is he another one of those 15 year olds Wenger plucked from some championship/french club? I'm assuming Clichy is hurt. Arsenal's defense is really weak and shaky, United really needs to turn it up and pressure all out.

C. Ronaldo should have of had a goal off his header which was right after the first goal. I have a feeling we have more goals coming in the second half, we just need to finish our chances. Arsenal with the exception of Fabregas seems really rushed and are making some careless mistakes as they get closer to the Man U defense.

This tevez/berbatov thing is kind of reminiscent of kuyt/crouch. Both have good qualities, tevez works hard, plays fast and direct but lacks the first touch, finesse, and finishing of berbatov, I know ferguson wants to combine the two like Benitez did and Benitez found his complete striker in torres, hopefully tevez can find his goalscoring form again and stay at old trafford.

I don't like the score at all, United played well but really lacked the extra luck or creativity or whatever to finish moves off. Arsenal can certainly score one and more than one at home. Hopefully Ferdinand will be able to play then. O'Shea is always the luckiest fucker at the right place at the right time but a goal is a goal.

Wow, i'm used to whatch Serie A and this match was played on another level, first touch play all the time, ball always at the ground, players moving with perfect synchrony and everyone with beyond average stamina..........
And this is even without considering individual skills of the players on the pitch..... i think it's just a matter of mentality and ways of training

the quality of this game, especially united, was really high. rooney was great, ronaldo good (very close to scoring twice - and his longshot was absolutely great.)

and 1-0 is a very good result for united, even though they should have scored more, 1-0 is still a great home result before the second leg.. now united can play the second game knowing arsenal has to attack, and there is not a team on the planet better at playing defend and counter.

Thought it was a really good game overall, although united dominated midfield for most parts.

Arsenal better come up with some good game plan in their home game! Although, their defense was more horrible than usual T-T

arsenal playing silvestre = lose, same with the 2nd leg, every time I watch him, he reminds me of World Cup 02 (? unsure) where he conceded 2 penalty in 2 game and also personally contributed to an opposition goal.
gibbs is actually 19 (i think), he is actually english and not being bought from somewhere else!!!

I completely agree. The only offensive player that seemed to do his part in my eyes was fabregas. Van Persie is a strong individual player that knows how to get pass defenders but can also help fabregas in building up the attack.
Sadly I still have the feeling that unless Arsenal's defence has the game of the season they are not going to advance.

Silvestre put in quite a few saving tackles and was generally the most solid Arsenal defender the whole game.

The return leg should be tons more open, not to say this one was a cagey sort of 1-0 game.

united should have scored more, with all those chances...they played superbly but that's football for you, can't always score a ton of goals. im looking forward to the 2nd leg at emirates stadium! i expect a whole lot of counter attacking chances for manu

manu ftw!!!

--------------------Berbatov
------Rooney-----
Tevez ------------------- Ronaldo

meh dunno, it will be hard to put all those 4 in the same lineup, im sure if Ferguson finds the right formula it will have one of the best offense in the world, of course below just Barca 8]
