Wow is all I've got to say... I think Arsenal are in big big trouble, I don't see them recovering from this with Wenger in charge.
United look a fantastic team.

Meh, we never really got out of second gear...
Joking ofc. An amazing game from us, we were totally brutal and Arsenal was woeful. Jenkinson was sh*tting himself all game, not surprised he got sent off. Surprised Arshavin didn't see red, he came very close in the first half. Awesome Rooney got a hat trick, and Young got 2 very impressive goals. Sucks for Chicharito he didn't score, he took up a few great positions and didn't get the passes. I can't exactly complain though! Was worried we'd start slow but we've come out of the blocks at top speed, couldn't wish for a better start.
Can't believe Arsenal shipped 8. Wenger will walk imo, sad for him if its his last game. I do like shutting up Arsenal fans though, they can get annoyingly chirpy at times, although not so much this season...

Thing is, Manchester United didn't even play at there best today. They didn't have too. Arsenal were never good enough, and they absolutely tore them apart. Some of the football was just mesmeric at times. Great game for the neutral, though.

What a ing day. I was saying 5-0 since Monday and damn, performance would have been level with the thought if we didn't concede. It should have been double figures today.

I dont like United but today i gotta give it to them. They just completely wrecked Arsenal. Some nice goals for Rooney and Young also.

Just having a look at Arsenal's scoring records on their website. It appears that the last time they shipped 8 goals overall was away to Loughborough Town (0-8) in 1896. Their previous biggest loss in the league was 0-7 to West Ham in 1927.
On paper Arsenal don't have a dramatically weakened team but they really need to get themselves sorted. This has to be the wake up call Wenger needs to either spend big, or get out.
I only really have a passing interest in football these days so I don't care about it as much as I used to. It's a money game these days and like someone pointed out earlier about Man City only being where they are because of money, I agree with that. It is killing my passion for the game and I reckon it will be totally dead within a few years.

Arsene Wenger in 2011: "Imagine the worst situation - we lose Fabregas and Nasri. You cannot convince people you are ambitious after that. You can't then pretend you are a big club because a big club holds on to its best players and gives a message to all the other big clubs that they can't come in and take our players."
Samir Nasri in 2010 : "I think we have more merit as a club than those who have built their teams with millions of pounds."
Gael Clichy in 2009 : "If any player Only wants Money , He will go to Manchester City."
Kolo Toure in 2008 : "City may spend a lot , but they will never overtake the Top 4 of the Premiership"

Wow what a thrashing to Arsenal and City did well too. Are the Manchesters becoming the Barca/Real of England? Nah but it was great to see. City look really strong in attacking with the front four of Dzeko, Aguero, Sliva and Nasri. Spurs should have really done better no exuse. As for Arsenal that really rubs salt in the wounds. I'd say though if Verlmalen was there it wouldn't have been so bad. He's a great defender and is a kind of leader of the back four. The young defender Jenkinson always looked nervy, wanted to make an impression going forward but then was always running back trying to make a tackle which led to his red. The guys on Match of the day was right, if you look at the subs Arsenal put out you can see thier suffering. When they get thier first team player back they should be better but they still need the depth in squad which every big team is doing. Onto Man U, what a perfomance. Absolute class goals from Rooney's FK's and Youngs double. Sad to see Welback injured but we've got Hernandez ready to fill in.

I don't think Geordie Ste will be too happy you hacked his computer to get his private images. Indeed, I am not! Nah, I honestly can't see what the big fuss is about this Ashley stripping fiasco. Loads of people going insane on Twitter about it but it doesn't bother me in the slightest. I'm definitely not Ashley's biggest fan, but surely he has the right to let his hair down? No matter what his job is.

There's a huge difference between 'Error of judgement' and taking the piss out of someone with cancer.
