#MUTARS

After the big North London derby game on Sunday, Arsenal fans are still bouncing off the wall.  Tonight we travel to the so-called Theatre of Dreams to take on the Jose Mourinho managed Manchester United.  

United the "winningest" club since football was re-invented in 1993 when the Premier league was created with Sky TV money sloshing about and they took advantage of that.

Currently a club in some denial and currently in 7th place in the table some 8 points behind Arsenal who occupy one of the holy grail places in the league also known as 4th. This place being the last golden ticket place on the English leagues to the UEFA Champion's League.

Although United seem to be in decline this year and have drawn the last two games against Bournemouth and Southampton, they have always been the "team to beat" if you want to win the league.  Although Chelsea and Manchester City have benefited greatly by having oil barons as owners,  pumping in a billion pounds each to buy success, Manchester United are still the most successful club in the "Sky" era.

Under Wenger, Arsenal often struggled to beat club's managed by Mourinho.  Was it mental? oftem matching both his Russian billionaire's to at Chelsea and now at the Mancs.

Hopefully under "Dick" Emery Arsenal will show more mettle and play as we did against Liverpool and Tottenham.  From the first whistle straight on the front foot.  Not like the other games where we have failed to get going until at least a goal down and lackadaisical for the first half!

We will know by 2145 tonight. 

In the end.... Poor game. Both teams poor. Passing poor. Defending even worse. A draw was the kindest thing.  Especially from the Mancs.
