Apart from the fact you're bound to say that (for real, no offence on that), I honestly don't see it. How come Man Utd matched Arsenal point for point in the league match, when Arsenal were trying damn hard? Today, it just seemed Man Utd were asleep, not outclassed.
You say Beckham effectively wasn't there. The man is, and I guess only you could deny it, the best English midfielder since Bryan Robson, and possibly since Stan Matthew and Bobby Charlton. So, do you mean Beckham isn't good enough for Arsenal?

look i had had a long day, up at 5 in the mornin and back late, i was was lettin a bit of my happines off, you gotta gloat when you beat man u 2-0 at old trafford.
i was not saying man u were crap and not saying arsenal are the best team ever.
in the league game they got the best of us, probably when it mattered more. ill admit they were better than us that day, and with a weakened team. but we were not outclassed, as they were today and they had their full team out.
beckhams not a bad player, one of the best crossers of a ball in the world, and his pass to giggs was world class, but apart from that, as i have been saying for years, he is shit. no pace, cant tackle, cant beat players. ash never gave him a kick.
problem with uniteds midfield yesterday was they were over awed by simply the best midfielder in the world, and theres no shame in that. they tried their best to kick him as they always do and tried to get him to react but had no answer to his power and skill.
btw, ive never seen a team MOAN as much a manu, both supportes and players at every decision that doesnt go their way, and then fergies comes out and says what he said, the man should go in to comedy.

Word, 9,000 of us sang them of their place, i'd seen how bad it was on the tv but i was'nt ready for that, they all just sat there and did'nt say a word, if i was a Man Utd fan i'd have been embarrassed to be there, disgraceful. The Theatre Of 60,000 Mutes. The view from the Stand was superb though, its a top ground.
As for the game, Vieira, Edu, Razor and Pires were world class, they won everything and never dropped to Man Utds level once, technical football at its finest. Wiltord and Franny never stopped working, and apart from one Keown mistake our defene were solid.
Cole had beckham in his pocket and Lauren did'nt need a pocket for Giggs.

arsenal have on it.
