We showed the world that United are a team of desperation, not determination.
Manchester United To win away at Old Trafford is always special for any Arsenal fan. To humiliate them is extra special, and make no mistake, we humiliated United.

ONLY Arsenal could have done what they did last night and an Arsenal Legend says ONLY Ox has what his Invincibles had!
Review, Player ratings and Solutions? Bayern at home last season. The intensity of our play our focus until we derailed after 30 minutes with the sending off was amazing.
