If the Mancs can beat Arsenal at home do you think WE can do the same at Anfield on November 28th?

No I doubt it, I would be happy with a draw but I dont think we can beat them.
There is no-one anywhere in the world at any stage who is any bigger or any better than this football club.

Highly unlikely.  Arsenal will bounce back I'm sure and though they wont have another run like it they're more than capable of winning at Anfield.  Man U's player of the match by far was Ferdinand he won everything in the air and kept Reyes, henry and Bergkamp quiet almost the whole match.  We dont have a defender of his quality which is what really won the game.  With Stevie G back along with Alonso we'll make it a good game but I dont see us taking 3 points from that fixture.

No reason why we shouldn't win. Our mid-field is getting very tidy, good at closing down and pushing out good possession, not giving away lose balls. If Gerrard is back and if Kewell could pull some form, we will be in with a shout. I think Cisse, might be a better player in games where we do not dominate and he can utilise his speed on the break. Campbell is strong but ponderous and is there to be turned, by a fast player.

I think we can beat them if we can convert our oppotunities , Arsenal confidence now isn't that high , last year at Anfield we dominated the game and lost hopefully that will not be the case this year .

I agree. I have no hope in Kewell, but lets see what Nunez can do.

Is he left sided, like Kewell ?

with our midfield in full force and cisse should get better  by the time arsenal comes around we should be ready enough to pull out a surprise win and keep our home record streak alive

Gerrard will be back by the time we play Arsenal. I think our midfield will become inredibly solid by the end of the season. We still haven't seen what Nunez can do so our midfield players could be the ones scoring for us more and more often.

Nunez is earmarked by the boss for right midfield.

Of course we can beat Arsenal in a once off game, and if we are to improve on last year we need to get a few wins against the big three.

We're capable of beating anybody on our day, so why not Arsenal?
