Thought after the Champions League he would have called it a day. He was made to look old that game.
I think he wants to play as long as the club think he has something to offer. FWIW I think he does, but he certainly shouldn't be starting big games against sides like Arsenal. Get Anderson on from the start, lots of energy, better tackler and he couldn't exactly give the ball away any more. If you need something with 20 minutes left, Giggs is a decent option from the bench.

Foster shouldn't have been beaten there, Arshavin probably should have had a pen just before anyway
Didn't honestly think that was a penalty, messy tackle but he did get a bit of the ball (was lucky too though). You'd definitely get a free for it if it was outside the box in the Premiership these days but I don't think you should. If I got a penalty given against me for a tackle like that in a university match I'd be ****ing furious.

Arshavin made it pretty irrelevant anyway.

Stone wall pen. Only part of the ball Fletch got was with his arm(s).

Yeah he should have saved it but it was a great strike and they deserve it on balance. United have been pretty poor, Rooney has done nothing and badly needs some support. Ferguson so often surprises us with the side he picks for big games, sometimes it work but today is not one of those games. Expect Berbatov to be on soon, hope Arsenal hold on to this.

Oh god the old its the balls fault argument agian.

Cannot really understand why they say Arshavin has done nothing all game, Ok he has not dominated but we have seen him a lot more of him than plenty of other players. Was not far away from scoring earlier either.

It was but it was relatively straight at him, so he should have saved it.
He was in the middle of the goal and the shot ended up near the top left and into it after Foster couldn't palm it away. Hardly staright at him though yeah he could have done better.

It did swerve quite a bit, but his starting position was poor. Shouldn't be beaten at the near post from that distance.

Really enjoyed the Bolton/Pool game, obviously. Drama filled and the right result. ;)

Lucas and Voronin are awful though.

Very sporting of Lucas to demand a red card for a fellow professional too.

And Foster is such an overrated goalkeeper, although that was a fine, fine save just now.
