Following another thread in which I disagreed with MJD! I thought I'd put it to the vote, without fans being biased please! As I'm sure there's more glory hunting Man U fans on here than Arsenal fans.

I'm going to be biased here, of course, being a true United fan since the 80's, but...
...Arsenal 'can' play the best football, 'on their day'. But recently, United have seriously improved their 'watchability' and whilst the number of games that United are playing the better football in is increasing, the number that Arsenal do is decreasing.
If Arsenal played the ugliest looking football in the league, but won it most seasons, would their fans complain? I doubt it.
Anyway, come this Sunday, we'll see who has the measure of it...

I always prefered a shoot 5 football, yeah it does move around a bit on a windy day, but i had some brilliant games with this on the school playground as a youngster so my vote goes too shoot 5 as best football.

As a Liverpool fan I'll be honest - watching my own team bores the pants off me, in fact I feel myself nodding off during games!
But this isn't about Liverpool and it pains me to say it but manure play the better football. Everytime they get the ball and go into attack mode it looks like they're gonna score, but when you take out Rooney, Ronaldo and to a point Tevez, they look distinctly average. Maybe I'm contradicting myself there but at the moment it looks like Arsenal are running out of ideas as well as energy.
Theo Walcott should start more games IMO.

agreed. Walcott is a cracking player. Must have been at Arsenal 3 years now? and has barely had a game.. The day he starts playing week in / Week out is the day Arsenal and England Become better teams

the object of a football match is to score more goals than your opponents.
By definition then, Man Utd are playing the better football.

As simple as that sounds, it is very true. You don't get points for artistic merit.
Figure Skating anyone?
