The rivalry between
Arsenal and
Manchester United is a notable one in English football as both clubs are recognised for having great history and traditions. Although their first competitive match was in October 1894, the rivalry was instigated in 1990 because of a brawl between both teams. In the years that followed Arsenal and Manchester United were fierce domestic rivals, and there was great animosity, but underlying respect between the two clubs. The rivalry at its peak was centered on managers
Arsène Wenger and Sir
Alex Ferguson, and their former club captains
Patrick Vieira and
Roy Keane.
I'm nominating this as a complete topic, an account of the rivalry between Arsenal and Manchester United. The articles selected for this topic are ones which have shaped and defined the rivalry, hence why the
1979 FA Cup Final and
1948 FA Charity Shield are omitted. It begins with the Old Trafford brawl and ends with the 2005 FA Cup Final. --

Support: Well, the main topic and games that fit the category, seems complete. (no need for the clubs themselves as it's only about a part of their history)

Support Is a great football topic and a well known rivalry. While not as big as it used to be in the 90's-00's, it is still one of the games each fan base want to see their team win. NZFC(talk)21:26, 27 March 2018 (UTC)reply
