in Manchester United: Q&A

Print
Ahead of Sunday's tie versus Arsenal FC, The Short Fuse -- the Arsenal site here on the SB Nation network -- have been kind enough to agree to do a Q&A exchange with us. Many of you probably know the routine by now: as always, we have you -- our readers -- supply the majority of the questions for these Q&A's while I supplement in a few of my own. What do you want to know about the Gunners. Quite obviously, much has changed since the 8-2 match at Old Trafford in August. Do you want to know what their supporter's ambitions are for the season? How about their expectations? How about their confidence in a top 4 finish? Do you want to know their thoughts on the return of Thierry Henry? This is your opportunity to gain in-depth knowledge on the London side from their hardcore supporters. Ask away!

It looks like your young left back will be playing again. Are you worried considering the considerable run of form Valencia is in? He ran rings round Rickets on Saturday
Do you have any idea why Van Persie was left off the 40 man shortlist for the Ballon Dor? What a bunch of idiots
Thoughts on your wingers? Walcott scored on Sunday but are you happy with him this season? I would much prefer him to come off the bench regulary so his pace can terrify the defense like he did against Barca a couple of seasons ago. And I am shocked AA is still at the club. He has been terrible for the last year or so.
No idea what you have been rambling about but I ask for you to please stop.
Your comments will continue to be deleted if you can’t add anything useful.
Here are my questions
Although Robin van Persie has said he is committed to Arsenal, there have been talks about him leaving Arsenal for the entire season, basically for the same reasons Cesc Fabregas left the club: to win titles. Do you believe van Persie will be a gunnar come sent season?
Arsenal have had alot of ups and downs in the 2011/12 campaign, the team started in disatrous fashion going 2-4-1 in their first seven matches (including an 8-2 blowout at Old Trafford againist Manchester United), then going 7-0-1 in their next eight then going 2-3-1 in their next six and this includes losing in stoppage time to Fulham and more recently losing to Swansea in disastrious fashion (giving up the Danny Graham game winning goal literally right after tieing the game).
What are your thoughts for the rest of the season? Are you confident this team can finish in a place where they can atleast qualify for the Europa League or do you think the quest for European football is a lost cause. Not to mention is the team with the talent they have are underpreforming or are playing up to your expectations.
What are your thought on “The Professor” Arsene Wenger. I know their are alot of Arsenal faithful that have that “In Arsene we Trust” mentality but after not winning silverware since the 04-05 season and with the ups and downs the team have been going through , do you believe that it’s time for Wenger to leave or do you believe that Arsene Wenger can lead the team back to the promise land like he did oh so many years ago?
I ask this question not just because of what I just said because I watched the 8-2 blowout and after the game they had Arsenal supporter Piers Morgan on and even he said that even he could do a better job of coaching than Wenger and that he needs to go because of the lack of silverware, that the young guys Arsenal has are not good enough and that he does a poor job on transfers since the man who man the transfers Chairman David Dein is gone from the club. It was after watching that it got in my head that maybe a coaching chance is needed.
Premier League wise, Arsenal is basically eliminated from winning the title, but what moves do you think the Gunners need to make to secure that they will be in title contention in the future?
How excited are you that Thierry Henry is back with the club on loan and what are your expectations of him being back with the club?

My Questions
What is your opinion of Park Chu-Young? When will he start playing games again? Do you think that with van Persie, Henry and Chamakh above him in the pecking order, the Korean striker should be loaned out either temporarily or for the rest of the reason?
How do you think Arsenal’s fullbacks will cope with United’s wingers? Who are your choices for fullbacks for this upcoming match?
What do you predict the final score to be this weekend?
Is van Persie the right candidate for captain, or do you think there’s another player who deserves to wear the armband?
