So you can shoulder a guy in the back and get away with it?? And he was the last man back, although maybe Ljungberg was losing control of the ball, so a free kick and a yellow should have been given.

Not so sure, if other teams put it up to the "invincibles" in the same way then we'll see. Mind you, they could do with winning a few trophies before they're up there with the best of the past 20/30 years....

joe soap contact was minimal and if you take into account the wet conditions and i dont think it was a shoulder into the back
put it this way if finny did something similar and was sent off you would be highly irate

"Fabregas threw the food. Van Nis went into Arsenal.
dressing room after the game going mad winding up Arsenalplayers after last
year. Wenger called him a Fcuking Cheat and told him to get out. Van Nis
went for Wenger, Edu stepped in and hit him, security guards piled in going
mad. The kitman was hit by the guards and got a broken nose. He wants to
pursue assault charge but Arsenal don't want him to. Ferguson then came in
and started as well, ranting at the Arsenal players. They told him to fcuk
off, he grabbed Fabregas who responded in kind. Man U dont want any
comebacks as Van Nis started it and their stewards were out of order.
Ferguson also knows he should not have gone in to the Arsenal changing room.
If Man U complain the kitman will pursue his claim. The police know what
happened. Difficult one for the FA."
