im traveling to london in a few weeks and want to go to a match, ive checked the fixtures and am trying to decide between arsenal/man u and chelsea/norwich. obviously, i expect arsenal/man u to be the better match, but im only london for four days and im not sure i want to sacrifice a full day to go to manchester. what would you guys recommend? im not familiar with norwich at all, will the quality of play/atmosphere be anything comparable to man u/arsenal? and is there a significant difference in stadium experience between old trafford and stamford bridge? i appreciate yalls help, tia
Arsenal/Man U will be much, much better. Liverpool's close too, so you could check out both cities. Not too far of a drive/train ride anyway.
Norwich has been promoted back to back years. They led their league last year in goal scored. It is a pretty attractive style of play. Odds are they will be outclassed by Chelsea and probably lose by 2 or 3 goals.
I would probably go to Chelsea/Norwich but that's only because Stamford Bridge seems like an incredible experience. Old Trafford would be a little out of the way but potentially much more incredible. Ask yourself, how badly do you want to see Arsenal lose in spectacular fashion?
Definitely head to manchester for the game even if you aren't a soccer fan. Just plan your days in London well so you don't miss anything.
Personally, I would try for the United/Arsenal match, not many times you'll be able to do something like that. If you do decide to stay in London, it's certainly not a bad decision. Norwich has a good fan base and should bring some solid away support. The Bridge is great and there really aren't many bad seats in the place. Not sure if price is a big issue but the Chelsea match will be cheaper, especially when you factor in travel costs and whatnot.
damn i completely missed that.. went ahead and booked the trip to manchester though, im excited thanks for yalls input
nice man, arsenal v man u will be intense, well intense if we finish our fucking squad and get rid of the pussies
