Former Man United player Bryan Robson thinks the Red Devils have what it takes at the right time to triumph in the Manchester United vs Arsenal clash at the Old Trafford today.
Robson, who was chosen to coach the Thailand national team back in 2009, is certain that the Carling Cup title holders can humble their rivals to claim the top spot in the English Premier League table. United have proved to be much better at home than away this season, and in view of the availability of Ferguson’s top players, the game could be an amazing one in favor of the home side.
"The great thing for the manager heading into this crucial period is that he's got his best players coming back to form and fitness," Robson was quote saying by ManUtd.com. "We've got Wayne Rooney back (in the team), and he looked devastatingly good against Blackburn; so his fitness and sharpness are a major plus for us.”
With 6 games on their agenda set to take place from today till the 4th of January 2011, it is up to Man United to get organized and take every single opportunity they get. After tonight’s game against Arsenal, the Devils will still have one game in hand. Their fate in the Premier League title race this season is still undetermined, but the “heavyweight battle”—as referred to by Robbo—between the Mancunians and the Londoners, might play a major role in the final table standings.
"This is another big one," Robson added. "(The) top spot in the league has rotated between ourselves, Arsenal and Chelsea in the last couple of weeks, as we all jostle for position going into the New Year.
"I have made the point before that results against your immediate rivals could make the difference right throughout this league; and it is no different at the top in the race for the (Premier League) title. That adds even more spices to this game."
