Арсенал (Лондон, Англия)

Если считать дебет с кредитом, то положительных моментов чуточку больше, но скептицизм все еще остается, как с точки зрения игры, так и турнирных перспектив вообще. Ну и тоже напишу про нашего польского голкипера: с такой игрой он должен стать первым номером сборной на домашнем ЕВРО

Будет весело и будет истрачено очень много нервных клеток. Выходить должны, выйдем ли вопрос, на который лично я ответить не возьмусь. Внизу приведу календарь и свои ожидания об одних из матчей.

Arsenal did well to overcome Udinese in the Champions League qualifier, but this challenge is likely to expose the limitations of a squad still desperately in need of new players. Doubts over the fitness of Thomas Vermaelen and Laurent Koscielny are also a grave concern, with no experienced alternatives available. United have won six of their last seven meetings with Arsenal at Old Trafford in all competitions, conceding just two goals, and were rampant in the second half against Tottenham on Monday night.
