FC Brugge
Player Valuation: £2.5m
The title matches exactly how i felt/feel after that match. Unbe-f*ckin-lievable. Normally I wouldn't pick sides in a Man Utd - Arsenal game, I've even been known to have said that my least favourite side is Arsenal (before I came here of course), but Arsenal should have had the three points, and Wenger was exactly right in making a farce of the referee's decision to send him off.
Evra is a piece of sh*t, Fletcher, whom I consider a really good midfielder should have had red and Arsenal should have had a penalty for that tackle (though he was arguably United's best man on the pitch), which was way worse than what Almunia did to Rooney. To be fair that incident would have been a penalty anywhere, albeit a light one, but that can't be blamed on Rooney. And the own goal was of course, undeserved, but for God's sake, if you're going to head a cross away, don't let it bounce off your skull to anywhere, if you want it over the goal, head up, and if you want to clear it, put some force behind it and choose a direction. Dumbass.
Arsenal should have won, but it wasn't United's fault that they didn't.
Eboue, for that dive, should definately have seen red, diving may be part of football nowadays but that was one of the most blantant ones I've seen yet, and I was impressed that Wenger reacted immediately by taking him off. He should get a fine for that in my opinion. It's plays like that, and referees like the one that sent Davis off for Bolton that have in the past, and will continue to ruin football.
Having said that, that sending off was not Liverpool's fault, and they took advantage of it in a way that was fitting, their two last goals were magnificent. I know Gerrard is probably the most hated person here, especially since Ronaldo left (thank God, the little [Poor language removed]), but he hit a tremendous volley, and I wouldn't say no to anyone with his abilities to come play here for us (anyone except Gerrard of course, I'd buy him to put him in the reserves).
If I had to back one of the big four for the title, my vote will definately go out to Arsenal. Apart from the diving antics of Eboue and, in the CL, Eduardo, they're the team I respect the most. I have nothing against United, nor have I anything against Chelsea (nothing major anyway), but Arsenal matches them with a squad both cheaper assembled, and with ten times the footballing capacity either of those has.
