Manchester United takes a step forward towards its second consecutive final of the UEFA Champions League. At Old Trafford, derby in English, the red devils holding the trophy exceed Arsenal FC 1-0 with a goal in the first half of Irish John O’Shea.
Wenger modified four elevenths the team defeated 2-0 in the league Middlesbrough FC. Bacary Sagna in defense takes the place of Emmanuel Eboué, the midfield is not Alexandre Song and Denilson in attack, Andrey Arshavin (unusable in Europe) and Nicklas Bendtner are replaced by Abou Diaby and Emmanuel Adebayor.

Cesc Fàbregas test without luck in the end area, defiladed on the right, then finds Bendtner who enter for Theo Walcott. It ‘still the United, however, to be alive, with a right Carrick ending a side not much. Wenger lays into the fray even Eduardo da Silva, who notes Adebayor, Bendtner but to be dangerous on a free kick from Fabregas battuta, anticipates the Danish head of Edwin van der Sar but sends out. Jonny Evans to replace Ferdinand, hit hard, but after four minutes of recovery the Danish referee Claus Bo Larsen sends all under the shower will be the challenge of returning to say who will book the plane for Roma.

Bendtner has notched up 12 goals this season, an impressive haul, but admits there have been times during the 2008/09 campaign where he ‘could not put a foot right’.

“People have not seen everything yet – there is a lot more to come and when people realise that, things will become even better,” Bendtner said in the May issue of the official Arsenal magazine.

“I feel more part of the starting XI this season than last and I feel I have improved all over my game.

“We had a down period – me personally as well – but it makes people stronger, more determined and focused.

“That is exactly what it has done with me and I have been playing better since then.”

Nicklas Bendtner yet to produce his best football.
Nicklas Bendtner insists there is much more to come from him as he looks to win over sceptical supporters.
The Arsenal striker has endured a difficult season, despite making more first team appearances than expected.
Injuries to Emmanuel Adebayor and Robin van Persie have seen the Danish hitman thrown into the spotlight on a regular basis.
