The pressing issue is the hear and now, the short term. Every fan and supporter (including myself) wants trophies, wants results to our fantastic football. We want to compete for mainly the big two trophies and pick up some of the other smaller two along the way
I love the Arsene does not buy experience waffle. Bacary Sagna, William Gallas, Mikel Silvestre, Tomas Rosicky, Andrey Arshavin and Eduardo are all experienced international players
Almost more than watching his ability on the pitch, I wanted to see Wenger being forced into making a decision. One that we haven't seen for a while. He would have had to fit Nasri, Cesc, Van Persie, Adebayor and Arshavin into four slots
We haven't seen the best of this kid yet, I think many including myself at times have watched him and not taken into consideration
Andrey Arshavin has a bit of that in him but he is mainly a very talented team player. The great Thierry Henry was someone who could burst past two defenders
I have a funny feeling that this game will match the hype, two great footballing teams will give their all but I hope that Arsenal's home advantage and desire will come out tonight
As much as I do not like Cesc behind Adebayor he can rotate with the other midfielders behind him during the game. What is most important is our balance and I believe that Diaby out on the left makes us unbalanced
The likes of Denilson, Bendtner and Eboue. Our back four are currently down to the barest of bones so not much rotation will take place in that area of the pitch
Many predicted those players to turn out but most would have assumed that they would have played in the positions that they have for 80% of the season
Phyically Manchester United are nothing to fear in midfield. The likes of Carrick, Scholes, Ronaldo etc are pretty lightweight so that shouldn't be a problem for our side
