Mind you, earlier on Arsenal were rubbish till van Persie came on - maybe these rape allegations spur them on. He ought to be first choice at the moment, really.
I heard today that Ronaldo would not be considered due to the rape allegation plus the recent passing away of his father, but hey presto, there he is on the bench, yes he did make a difference when he came on.

Nistelrooy annoys me by wanting the ball on a plate all the time, hence the fact being thrown around now that all his goals for united have been inside the box.
Rooney's display was mediocre, but the lad cannot do it on his own.
No single person on the pitch was to blame, it was just a very bad team performance.

Arsenal seem to be picking up a bit since the return of Henry.
Van Persie is a good player with good individual skills, plus he has decent players around him which helps.

I am supposed to be going to OT on the 22nd of Nov to watch the Villareal game, at the moment, I am thinking of returning my tickets.
