There is an entire chapter in Sir Alex Ferguson's autobiography devoted to Arsene Wenger but even now, one year on, you have to wonder whether the Arsenal manager has actually read it. Especially pages 188-189. It is about the tactic that Ferguson devised for playing Wenger's team; a tactic that helped Manchester United win 10 out of the 14 matches they played in the last five seasons of Ferguson's tenure.
"In later years we learned more about Arsenal's thinking," wrote Ferguson. "Arsene had a template of how he sees his players and the way they play. We didn't need to win the ball against Arsenal, we needed to intercept it. You need good players who can intercept."
Ferguson then noted how Cesc Fabregas would nearly always "twist the pass round the corner then run to get it back on the other side of the defender" for Arsenal. Ferguson's instruction to his players was thus: "Stay with the runner, intercept the pass, then counter-attack quickly". The space for those counter-attacks was usually to be found in the wide positions where, whether home or away, Arsenal's full-backs were invariably lingering in their opponents' half in the often naïve expectation that their team-mate would not lose the ball.

A new Sponsorship Today report shows that Manchester United now earns 11% of all sponsorship income across Europe's six major leagues.  :shock:

Typical arsenals fans, complain about the turks setting off flares. Then they do it themselves. Worst fans in the country

Wasn't that bad. Biggest crime was boring match from Arsenal side which is a rare thing to see. Also, wish Welbeck broke that prick's leg off. Subhuman scum, just like Costa and Mourinho. They are perfect for each other.

Hope that Arsenal will never again give so much to another Spanish player. They don't deserve it.

Well yeah, but he kinda shit his pants when 15 year older man pushed him. Was pretty quiet till the end. Will press charges probably. Typical little man, piece of shit who is loud on words but is a coward when it comes to slight physical confrontation. This was the biggest win of the season: http://zippy.gfycat.com/UnhappyMeagerKillerwhale.webm

Shame this is the real world and Wenger is not the Mountain, in my fantasy I totally seen Mourinho eyes bleeding out while his punny brain has been squashed.
