Match Reaction v Man Utd (home)

[Niall_Quinn]

Arteta took them all on the Polar Express. And got them a house and a dad and a baby brother for Christmas.

Excellent first half. Just the clinical final ball/shot missing again.

Solid second half with everyone putting in a required shift despite the tired legs.

Did United have a clear chance in that game? When was the last time we reduced any team in any type of form to just scrappy quarter-chances? And wihen did we nullify an opposition team who have one obvious style? It shouldn't be revelatory, but with the malaise and unproffesionalism that has set in over the last few years, it could be a genuine stepping stone.

Maybe Arteta instead of Emery woukdn't have been such a risk afterall. Not bringing him in earlier this season when it was clear that nothing was working was terrible mismanagement.
