We have struggled to break down Man Utd in the past, missed chances people like RVP and Adebayor especially guilty of that. We haven't been strong enough mentally or phyiscally you could put that down to refs and the character of certain players. When the going gets tough we have tended to crumble, players haven't stood up but now we have a player in Ramsey a talismanic figure, a young, up and coming leader who can make the difference when we are under pressure
For me the biggest difference this year has been Ramsey without a doubt the best player in the league and the most influential. Kosicleny/Mertesacker/Szczesny have been brilliant for ages imo but whats changed is Ramsey influencing games in the middle of the park, winning us matches, scoring at crucial periods which has been our biggest problem. We have missed too many chances at crucial periods to kill games off and then pay for it later on. Ramsey has turned us into killers in front of goal
Because of injuries, we have had to use more or less the same group of players so fatigue could be a factor, we could potentially be defending for large periods of the game because of the lack of rotation, fresh players available, having played 2 big games already etc. Which its why we are so lucky to have Aaron Ramsey the fittest player in the league, probably in the world even if we don't play well we can still win games because of Aaron Ramsey's physical endurance, technical quality and his ability to score goals
Man Utd have always tended to keep our strikers quiet, wide players but now we have a different threat and hes coming from midfield which poses Man Utd different problems. The return of Flamini could make Ramsey even more dangerous playing him further forward not focussing on the defensive work (Like he has been recently alongside Arteta) he could cause Man Utd all sort of problems with his runs from midfield
Aaron Ramsey key to beating Man Utd

May the best team win, lets hope that it is a breathtaking match where the football does the talking!

I don't think it will be a breathtaking game tbh 3 massive games in a week its gonna be a tight, ugly affair
Flamini will make a difference but its obvious our attacking players like Rosicky, Ozil, Cazorla, Giroud need a rest. Which is we are going to have to rely on Ramsey again to dig us out. We can't make changes because the likes of Podolski, Walcott, Oxlade Chamberlain, Gnabry are injured

In my opinion we dont rely on one player. We need the same togetherness and fighting spirit and a moment of class from someone like we showed against Dortmund.
If we manage to do that we are fine.
