This will be a tough match. I hope Barbatov is not listed. He is the most wasted in my opinion for that kind of money. Perhaps these are both English clubs so the game might be more aggressive than sit back and hang on to it type. I say Ronaldo and Rooney shines while Macheda will come in late and scores a wonder goal.

Ahhhh. Seems like just yesterday it was a rainy August afternoon in the OBX and what did ol' dadryan find on the TV? Champions League Qualifying.. my goodness, yes it was Arsenal vs Twente... as I recall.
Wonder how many folks will stumble upon Champions League on FSC? Maybe something will be gained if it's on FX I suppose...(looking at you Kev29) I mean how many stay at home dads or rainy day beachgoers stumble on FX?

From the Guardian's minute-by-minute...
28 min: "Same old Arsenal, always cheating!" chant the home fans, who have come to cheer on a team that numbers Cristiano Ronaldo among its ranks.

Well, if you're vacationing on the Outer Banks - you might be able to stumble upon a Champions League match on FX or Fox Sports Carolinas - or both! We'll see how Fox make this happen - could well end up with more matches on basic cable.

You've got an optimistic point. I'll take it. I'll probably be forced back into the work force by then anyway... When do they predict you'll be able to get live video feeds on the I-Phone?

Good performance by United, but they should have put this tie away today. Too many chances created and only one finished. It'll be very tough to get the result at the Emirates.

Did anyone else think that Arsenal was going to do better?
Why wasn't Arshavin playing?

@UnitedDemon,
Arshavin = Cup-tied to Zenit St. Petersberg
