Well where do you start with this one?! Maybe 8-2 to United way back at the start of the season?
This result will be in the back of everyone's mind going into the match both fans and players alike.
Fact is I think this was one of those freak results that happen once in a while and at the Emirate today at 1600
It'll be a different story.
The Arsenal players seemed fired up and want to have a revenge mission that sees their own season get back on track.
It's a very hard one to predict for me as both sides have been seriously dented by injuries. I can see a draw written all over this one but Arsenal fans would happily take a 90th minute winner by Henry to get everyone smiling at the Emirate once again.
Welcome to the FootballTalk blog... 2012 is going to be a very active year in Football and for that reason you'll be able to enjoy lots of blogs of which you can have your say. I have also got an additional writer to offer you readers a variety of blogs and views.

Manchester City V Tottenham Hotspur The Preview
Many people will consider today a league title showdown between arguably the 2 most exciting teams in the premiership this season...
This is a very hard one to call, Man City will fancy their chances as their home form is unbelievably great but the way Spurs play could quite conceivably dent that respectable record.
The main argument for Spurs fans expecting a win from their team would probably be the loss of the Toure brothers and Kompany and even though they will be missing Adebayor themselves, would you ever back against Defoe?? I think not..
That being said I'm going to go with an absolute thrilling 3-2 victory for Man City which will firm their place at the top of the table and make Spurs rethink their title hopes.

Norwich Hold Chelsea To A 0-0
Norwich City achieved their first clean sheet since being back in the Premierleague and in turn kept Chelsea from earning 3 points which has to ultimately end any hopes of the title depending on other results of course.
Another talking point will be one more game gone without Nando scoring and even though Ruddy did so well to stop him scoring it still doesn't reflect well on the out of form Spanish international.
So is champions league qualification the best the blues can hope for? And is that even going to happen?
Who knows....

Drogba To China?
According to a Chinese newspaper Didier Drogba is very close to completing his move to Shanghai Shenhua to link up with Anelka who moved earlier this month.
Is this really a good move for Chelsea?? If true then they will be losing a real goal scorer when Torres still can't hit the target and Sturridge is still being played out wide.
I would say that this would be a clear sign that Chelsea will be seeking a new striker but who??
