English FA Cup 16/2/2008 - Manchester United vs Arsenal

This is the English FA Cup live commentary and play by play soccer match that everyone has been waiting for and salivating over - Manchester United against Arsenal at Old Trafford. The talk has been of this game dealing a psychological blow to whichever team that lost, going into the final hurdle of the last few games in the English Premiership. If that were the case, I have to say that Arsenal might have to go home with their tails in between their legs. They are missing a whole boatload of players for this game and that might include Adebayour. If that were to happen, even with their goal scoring midfielders in Fabregas and Hleb, you know they would be busy guarding Rooney and Ronaldo. That leaves Bendtner to play upfront although it might be Wenger's mind games to put Adebayour's availability in doubt for this game.


Koule Toure and Eboue will be back from the African Nations Cup for this live commentary and radio broadcast English FA Cup soccer match between Arsenal and Manchester United and that should help to solidify their backline against Manchester United's pacy strikeforce. However the question is if they can score at Old Trafford, given the solid partnership between Ferdinand and Vidic at the back. They might have to take advantage of any slip ups in concentration from Ferdinand and then defend well against a Ronaldo determined to show that he can perform at the critical matches instead of just being a flat track bully. What most soccer 'experts' and media couch potatoes wanna be soccer managers actually do not realise is that as long as you beat all the mediocre and average teams, losing one or two games against your top opponents will still win you the title. That has happened to Manchester United many times during their title winning seasons and they will show it again in this live commentary and TV telecast English FA Cup soccer match against Arsenal. They do have a good track record against the Big Four, but they have consistently beaten the other sides and that establishes their huge advantage over the rest of the Big Four who regularly struggles against supposedly inferior opponents.


Due to the massive number of key injuries and playing away and Wenger not really too enamoured with the FA Cup, this live commentary and radio broadcast English FA Cup soccer match should see Manchester United roll to a comfortable win over arch rivals Arsenal. With Rooney back in the team, Manchester United will not lose as they have shown this season. Ferguson will also be eager to gain a psychological advantage over Arsenal in this live commentary and TV telecast English FA Cup soccer game and you know what he is playing at since Manchester United have largely been silent prior to this game while the young Gunners have been shooting their mouths off with Fabregas saying they are the better team this season. That should end up on the walls of the Manchester United dressing room before the game.
