PL: Arsenal vs Manchester United | Wednesday 1st January | KO: 20:00 | BT Sport

Getting into the top 4 is probably a bridge too far with so many good teams to pass, but if Arsenal can build on today's performance and be able to sustain that sort of play for 90 minutes, I believe they have an outstanding chance of winning the Europa League.

I am still worried about relegation. The league is competitive and lots of teams are fairly good. I hope we can go on a run and get some distance between ourselves and the bottom part of the table. Too early to start hoping for top 6 or top 4. Let's get the ship stabilised and go from there.

If we can maintain this level of intensity, we'll climb and finish in the EL places at least. All I'm looking at right now is to win the ****ing EL, get in the CL back door and use that to get some quality in the summer.

This is the first time this season that I have jumped up and celebrated our goals. It's good to feel reconnected to the club again. On another note, now is the time to send an official complaint to the refs association. Not a single yellow for Utd was totally shocking and seems like corruption more than incompetence. We need to do this after a win so it doesn't look like sour grapes should the next result go against us. It's unacceptable.

It's been atrocious over the last couple of weeks. Today and last game were just blatantly in favour of our opponents. I agree that the club needs to raise an almighty stink about how we are mistreated.

We've won 4 of the last 5 home league games against them. And let's be honest we've been poor for most of that era. Just shows how far they have fallen.

Twitter is bad place . Also i hope people stop making jokes about Lingard I read he struggling off field with depression

@Taylor Gang Gunners just sinking in that we beat United, the fanbase that we hate the most.

Thanks for triggering me. I am off to look at a Manure fan forum!

With Fergie they usually sit down and hit us on counter hardly a bullying

We were that soft that we usually had ourselves beaten before kick-off.

MOTD just started... Phil Neville in the studio and some other ****s that will be choking over the result

I wish Lingaard all the best in his fight with depression but that does not give him the right to be constantly trying to injure Arsenal players without punishment. Last year he got Holding out for the season and today he had a couple of nasty challenges which he got away with.

Lingard having a bad game at the Emirates.

you love to see it

 

[Tumblin'Dice]

Honestly, I'm just glad that I can be happy about a positive result again.

No longer having to worry about how any positive result could lead to negative long term repercussions.

The best game with difference that we have played in many time. Amazing performance today, the new era of Artera is coming.

 

[Oxeki]

Wasn't it also Olay's 1st defeat as United manager?

That would be PSG at home. But in the league, it was definitely when we beat them at the Emirates last season

Most impressive part for me is how he has already made us look more solid by getting us to defend as a team, I know we lost the chelsea game but if it wasnt for the huge mistake by leno I think we keep them out, we kept both chelsea and utd down to very few chances

That down because our central midfielders protect the defense more if you notice with Emery this season that 1 pass from deeo open us up because the positioning of our midfielders are bad no discipline at all

Pleased Arteta is getting the team working together and working hard. Does that means these players aren't as shi te as the many accusations on this board have suggested?

I am far from relaxed though. A better team than this anodyne version of Manu would have scored in the second half and maybe even got a draw. Unless we go 3-0 up we will drop points if we tail off as we have in the last games, and if we fall behind....

Which goes to say that perhaps this group of players is not the best to play this type of football and Arteta needs to get his own group.

Ever since VAR came to play I've stopped celebrating with full commitment. And I think it's the same with some people in the grounds as well.
