Weather? Well the BBC reckon sunny spells and a max of 17°C today. That would be nice.
A view from The Observer:
One only has to look back over the dozen years of the Premiership to understand that Manchester United v Arsenal is the biggest game in English football. Only one other team have won the title in that period and the Blackburn phenomenon was so short-lived that it was over by the time Arsène Wenger moved in at Highbury. Since that fateful day in 1996, United and Arsenal, and Sir Alex Ferguson and Wenger, have turned into one of football's great double acts.
Their rivalry is not simply about winning trophies, it is an adornment to the wider game. Most leagues have their double acts and deadly rivalries, but in Scotland, Spain and Italy, for example, what tends to happen is that one team is up while the other is down. You have a period of Celtic dominance followed by a period of Rangers dominance. If Real Madrid are breaking transfer records and cleaning up in the Champions League, Barcelona are probably going through another period of transition, and so on.
What is unique about the United-Arsenal rivalry is that for the past seven or eight years they have been as good as each other. There have been times when one or the other has had the upper hand, but the apparently beaten team has always managed an effective riposte.
And there's a new Red Issue out today too.
