who will win this years shield ?

Yes I understand a draw can not be the final result so the draw tip is at end of normal time

My tip is that no one will remember or care 2 weeks later.

2 weeks is a bit ambitious wof

He should play a reserves side. Just a glorified practice match

wasn't a "glorified practice match" to most mancs supporters last year when Moyes won it

In fantasy land if they thought that.
We have won it 20 times and I couldnt care less about it, still probably better than the League Cup though

It's one of the toughest competitions to qualify for on the planet which makes it better than the League Cup.

Yes didn't think of that marty. Hard to make the community shield so

midnight sunday night the game is on ESPN. Of course that ESPN is a yank channel that the coverage headline says " The FA Cup live "

Don't forget America is in a different time zone

3-0 win to arsenal . Promising signs there considering it was their "B grade" side

If we couldn't beat their b grade then there would be issues

We had a few players out too

Agreed. City played an almost 2nd string and I wouldn't take anything from the game.

Shame how much this match has been devalued over the years. The thousands of empty seats says how much the fans have lost interest

was only empty seats on one side of the stadium which was theirs ..

And nearly all of the top tier from what I saw.
Maybe it meant more to Arsenal fans ?
They only have a 20 minute journey, unlike City who have a 4 1/2 hour trip

Chelsea vs Arsenal 2015

tips ?

Arsenal 2-1, not sure there is much interest anymore. Just a final practice match, would think both clubs trot out their B sides

maybe so but it is the most difficult to get into for football clubs
