Let the TABLE do the 'TALKING'...

[raydiative]

tell that to arsene wenger.

sometimes i wish arsene can urge his players to go for the scoring board rather than something else.

We NEED A SILVERWARE!

actually if they splash the cash on 2 - 3 world class players, they really have a good chance of trophies.

but 1st, get a good goal keeper.

I don't quite like the attitude with every Arsenal fan about what next season will be better.

Last season we said the same, the year before we said the same, and now we are still saying the same thing.

Cannot procrastinate liao lah, time to put our words into action.

COME ON GUNNERS!

Happy Reefing,

P.S: I am an Arsenal fan since Pri 4. Since Tony Adams, Ray Parlour, Dennis Bergkamp and Marc Overmars days to Thierry Henry, Patrick Viera and now CESC FABREGAS and my favourite, ARSHAVIN! :D

YEAP!

I see the current stash of goalkeepers we have, I am deeply concerned.

Almunia form is like stock market, sometimes sharp sometimes terribly blunt.

Fabianski, is "OMG! I think my grandma can be a better GK than him!" seriously need ALOT of on-field experience. His handling and judgement of the flow of the game and set pieces also quite poor.

Mannone - Never see much of him in action so cannot comment..

Wonder how David Moores feel now.

It was his silly decision to sell to the yankees and it has been a soap opera since.

Rooney should aim to beat Ronaldo tally - Ferguson

Sir Alex Ferguson has challenged Wayne Rooney to surpass Cristiano Ronaldo's 42-goal season for Manchester United.

England striker Rooney reached 30 with two against AC Milan as United beat them 4-0 to send them crashing out of the Champions League 7-2 on aggregate.

"That has to be his goal now doesn't it?" said Ferguson referring to Ronaldo's 42-goal tally in 2007-08.

However, Rooney said: "I'm delighted to get two more goals but I haven't set a target. I just want to keep scoring."

The 24-year-old, who also scored twice in the first leg in Milan, added: "Overall, it was a great result and we are delighted to get through.

"The first goal was vital. We set out to get an early goal to kill the game off and when we got it we shattered Milan's confidence.

"That was the major turning point. Now we can just look forward to the quarter-finals draw [on 19 March] and see how it goes from there.

"There is no preference. They are all difficult games at this stage of the competition."

Former team-mate David Beckham, currently on loan from La Galaxy to AC Milan, hailed Rooney as one of the best players in the world after his latest performance.

The veteran England midfielder Beckham said: "Wayne is such an exceptional talent.

"Without a doubt he is one of the best players, if not the best, in the world at the moment with Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi."

Ferguson added: "Wayne continued tonight what he has done all season - he was absolutely sensational.

"(But) it was a marvellous performance from all my players, especially in the second half when our second goal effectively ended the contest.

"When we play with that tempo we're very difficult for anybody to play against.

"Ji-Sung Park, in particular, showed sacrifice, intelligence and discipline and we needed that against [Milan midfielder] Andrea Pirlo."

Asked who he would like to face in the last eight of the competition, Ferguson added: "With the kind of team I've got, it doesn't matter who we get."

Beckham, despite his disappointment on the night, admitted he will remember the occasion for a long time thanks to the rapturous reception he received from United's supporters on his return to Old Trafford.

"It was a disappointing night because we lost the game, but returning here is always special," he said. "It was an unbelievable reception I got, incredible, and I have to say thank you.

"If this is my last appearance at Old Trafford, I'll take the memory of the fans away with me - they were incredible.

"Of course I now want United to go on and win it. They deserve it."

Beckham left the field wearing a green and gold scarf thrown to him by a fan protesting against the Glazer family, who own the club, but he denied that meant he is anti-Glazer.

"I'm a Manchester United fan. I saw the scarf there, I put it round my neck," he said. "It's the old colours of United, that's all I knew.

"To be honest it's not my business. I support the club. I always have done and I always will do.

"It's nothing to do with me the way everything is run, that's to do with other people but I'm a United fan and I will always support them.

"Obviously you can hear it week in and week out. There's always protests going on. Let's hope it gets sorted out."

Milan coach Leonardo, meanwhile, admitted his side had simply been outclassed at Old Trafford.

"I guess we can analyse the game in many ways, but the one thing we cannot deny is the performance of United," said the Brazilian. "They played a truly great game.

"Conceding a goal so early made a comeback even more complicated for us.

"In the first leg we played an equal match. We lost but we dominated for some periods. Today was different.

"We have some problems but United is a very strong team, they can use your mistakes in the best way. They are very clinical and that is what you have to be in this competition."

Bay M 2, Man U 1

goals here: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xcrxtz_bayern-munich-2-1-manchester-united_sport

Ronnie's was totally unmarked when he scored his 1st goal. His marker slipped and fell ... haha.....

gosh the second Bay M goal was such a cheap giveaway.

Alex must be fuming.... haha I like to see his face after the goal.

return leg at old trafford will be very exciting.

Alex & capello will be sweating heavily on Ronnie's injury

[pokmingsheng]

if rooney's out,

i guess england chances in the world cup are almost dead zero..

Totally perfect but was hoping a manu and chelsea draw initially.

Oh my goodness.... I am this close from spouting expletives!

Liverpool is such a mediocre team these days.

The club has taken a huge tumbling down the stairs.

I cannot see how they will improve next year given Benitez record in transfer targets.

I mean ... Babel and Ngog.... they cannot even get into the first team for Sunderland if they are there......

Goodbye to top4 and even the 6th place might be beyond them.... this is the saddest season in recent yrs.

And no, they will not even be able to overturn the 2-1 deficit in the return leg of the Euro cup.

I watched abit of the match.

I think Liverpool lacked the sharpness they used to enjoy last time!

Too much tinkering by Benitez perhaps?

Anyway about Arsenal, have you watched the replay? totally enjoyed looking Arsene Wenger's reaction when Bendtner scored! Totally like a kid! hahaha

Man U vs Chelsea, I don't know what to say about this match. BUT I have to say Chelsea was the more dorminant side throughout the match. Rooney's greatly missed AND I am surprised Scholes and Fletcher didn't capitalise on some schoolboys' mistakes by Mikel and I love Park! Drogba wise, oh wells, pa-jiao linesman! seriously! i am not surprised his car be pelted with bird shit!

this season is so heartbreaking for Liverpool fans,

far cry from what most would think initially after last season's good performance..

i'm afraid after this season, key players might leave..

world class managers like jose mourinho would change their mind and go for other teams instead..

Liverpool might be another newcastle/leeds..
