    this game is like last year with roles reversed where united had to rest players for the Europa and didn't give a monkeys and we spanked them.

    on the plus side United are still capable of one of those stroll round the pitch performances. they did lose at home to west brom not long ago. Also they only have the FA cup to play for and make take it easy because of that.

    it could be a really dull game.

    Oh yeah. That's true about the FA Cup. They've not got much to play for in the league, nor have we.
    Could be a bit of a nothing game all round.

    it is a nothing game. we will rest players, united might rest players and it really depends on if Pogba is interested or not. although we have lost to a united side with 8 defenders in the team so anything is possible.

    I don't want us to "chuck" it, and I don't want us to get hammered.
    But the Utd game is not a "must win" game like it would have been back in the day when we were chasing titles.
    I'll be disappointed if Wenger puts out "the kids" and we get a walloping, if it rests a few key players or puts them on the bench then fine, I think pretty much any manager would do that in these circumstances.
    agree with all of that - my fear is Wenger will do something daft like playing Laca instead of Auba like he did in the W Ham game - one of the stupidest most illogical things I've ever seen and it may actually have had an effect on his, Monreal's and Bellerin's fitness at the end of the game

    Will probably lose this, we have nothing to play for, they always beat us at OT and we have a huge game on Thursday so I’m going for a 3-0 loss.

    Apparently we have taken a squad predominately made up of reserves. Auba, Bellerin, Welbz and Cech are the only senior players thought to have travelled.

    Wenger trying to top the 8-2.

    I think I'll watch this game from behind the sofa.
