Fletcher wary of backlash
Date published: 07 November 2008
MANCHESTER United’s Darren Fletcher expects a wounded Arsenal side to “come out fighting” when the two teams meet tomorrow lunchtime at the Emirates Stadium.
The midfield player believes the injury-hit Gunners will respond positively following a troubled week.
He said: “They will come out fighting. I am sure they will have been hurt by the criticisms they have received and that will only spur them on.”
While Arsene Wenger’s Arsenal side has been ravaged by injury, United have a full-strength squad at their disposal with Wayne Rooney and Dimitar Berbatov set to be reunited up front after being relegated to the bench in midweek.
