Manchester United visited the new boys Burnley , at their Turf Moore. Burnley is a club that has the thinnest purse to buy players, and nothing much was expected of them.
But they had decided from the start that they would give Manchester United a real fight.Michael Owen was chosen as a striker for this match, and Fabio Capello watched on from the stands, but to everyones supprise he was a complete failure , and around half time Ferguson decided that it was more then enough as they were by now chasing Burnley as Robbie Blake hade scored the one goal of the match, so Ferguson brought on Dimitrov Berbatov in the place of Michael Owen, but things did not change at all. Manchester had a glorious chance to equal the score when Patrice Evra was brought down , and a penalty was awarded in Manchesters favour. The supprise taker was Michael Carrick , and it was a very poor weak shot, saved by the goalkeeper. People wondered why Rooney or Giggs did not take the penalty, it was a costly miss.And could very well be Burnleys biggest win in the E.P.L history.Manchester tried hard and sent players forward but luck ran out , so did the time. It was Burnley first win verses Manchester United in 41 years.

NOTHING WRONG WITH YOUNG ARSENEL TEAM.
The Arsenal fans are upset that Arsene Wenger has not spent big money in buying costly players this time. But his policy has always been different from other managers. He believes in buying young and even didcarded players and then develop them as stars. He gets them cheap and sells them for a fortune. Example Nickolas Anelka was brought by him for 50,000 pounds from P.S.G. And sold to Real Madrid for 23 million . Thierrry Henry, Patrick Vieira, Alexander Hlep,Cesc Fabregas .Example Fabregas is a discard fom Barcelona, now Barcelona want Fabregas for 30 million pounds, and they will also give Allexander Hlep free.Henry was discarded from Juventus .
But I would like to bring some things to your knowledge .they are as follows.
Arsene Wenger has brought Arsenal into the champion league for the past eleven years, on a small team , and they have reached the quarter finals or as this years semi finals.Not bad for a cheap team of players.The Real Madrid team have failed to reach the quarter finals for the last five years in a row , and that to after spending madly o at least twenty players in three years, what do you say to that? In the Manchester United team Berbatov, Rooney, Tevez are worth 30 million pounds each Nani Hargraves, Carrick are 17 million pounds each .

ARSENAL VERSES MANCHESTER UNITED.
The long awaited clash between the two English giants was held on 8/11/2008. Manchester United as to its full strength, while Arsenal had a few injuries , Emanuel Adebayor and Emanuel Ebouhie wre absent to injuries , and the Dutch striker Robin Van Persie was suspended for this match. While William Gallas and Mickaal Silvestre had a fractured nosefrom a previous game and were only fifty percent fit for this important game..While Manchester United had no such worries or any suspension. So on paper Manchester United were definately the stronger and the side to win the is classic match.We must remember Arsene Wenger was strongly attacked by everyone for still depending on youth, over experience.
But what is wrong if the young Arsenal get results , without spending huge amounts per player, like 17, million pounds per player, when you can get that resultfor750,000 pounds.
when the match started Arsenal made a very, very nervous start as the team was a patched up team and Toure also was absent.Inthe early fifteen minutes Mickaal Silvestre made a very nervous back pass tothe goalkeeper leading toa free kick. But Arsenal gained confidence and carmed their nerves, as well as the Emirate fans.
But in the 23rd minute of this match which realy turned out to be a cracker of amatch , and one of great delight for the neutral viewer. In the 23rd minute the ball from Samir Nasri the french footballer who joined Arsenal this year, to strengten the midfield after the departure of Gilberto, Flameni and Aleksande Hlep. The ball from Samir Nasri took avery wicked defection from the outstretched foot of Gary Neville and went in the net.The Emirate Stadium found their voices at once and never lost it after that.
Both sides made attack after attack , but the score stood at the break at 1-0 in Arsenals favour.
Early in the second half Nasri scored his and Arsenals second goal, this was a breather for Arsenal ,with a twogoal cushion Arsenal then defended more , but also went forward. Alex Ferguson also made a few changes he also brought in the ever reliable Welsh footballer Ryan Giggs, and a young Brazilian Rafael DeSilv
Michel Carrick colided wth the Arsenal goalkeeper Emanuel Alumuni. but sadly Alumani could not play all the 90 minutes of the match. As he was feeling the affects of the collission and had to have treatment on the pitch.
and wasalso replaced by the Polish goalkeeper Fabriaski. It was in the 90th minute of the match Rafael De Silva scored a thunderous goal. And as there was six minutes added the question all asked was it enough for a win or a draw , The TottenhamHotspur game was on everybodys mind as Arsenal let it slip from their fingers of 4-2 to 4-4 in injury time.
But Arsenal defeated Manchester United once again ,.This was their 37th match and Arsenal have won 14, Manchester United 13, with 8 draws.But Arsenal were robbed of a penalty when Vidic , had his hands around Nasri, and he even pulled Nasris jersey.in the box,and nasri felland claimed for a penalty which was not given. But F.I.F.A. rule says holding with the handis a foul and holding the jersey is a bookable offence, and bringing a player down by the jerseyin the box is a penalty.It now looks like Manchester United games are fixed like Juventus did a few years ago. referee Harold WEbb cansay we referees are not gods . Vey true. But consult the linesmen when aplayer is dropped ina box.
