I wonder how fit Stones is currently as he has started very few games recently but been on the bench for most of them? I think Pep may save him for Spurs so go with

Ederson, Walker, Akanji, Ake, Gvardiol, Kovacic, Rodri, Bernardo, KDB, Foden, Haaland

these are the in form players at the moment and despite no wingers, we are creating and scoring again

They didn't in the FA Cup game, though. They played quite defensively and relied on counters. Fortunately, Son wasn't available then.

They'll try to be smart and play on the counter, IF they still have a chance to make the top 4, that is.

We have to have a plan for Son. Usually we just hope he wont be on it. He always is against us. Definitely need a sort of zonal man to man plan. Walker last third. Bernie middle third. Cant have him destroy us again

Only way rags win on Sunday is if Arsenal have a dodgy lasagne for lunch

It's football, we all gave the rags bugger all chance against the dips....and what happened? The dips didn't manage to beat them in 3 attempts.

I do think Arse will hand them their personal arse on Sunday but, I've not wrote the rags off fully.
 
Another must win, but at least it's a chance to go top and put pressure on Arsenal.

It would be good if Newcastle lost against Brighton, Spurs beat Burnley and Villa beat Liverpool but I might be asking for a lot.

That would mean 4th place for Spurs is dead but 5th is pretty much confirmed, with a trip to Sheffield United after us.

Fulham to deal with first mind. Their last home game so it will be a tricky one.

I see Taylor is the referee.

Cue mass hysteria on here.

And Coote on Var.
Taylor is the one ref i fear most given his history with us.

Referee: Anthony Taylor. Assistants: Gary Beswick, Adam Nunn. Fourth official: Keith Stroud. VAR: David Coote. Assistant VAR: Dan Robathan

Thankfully he's having a pretty below average season, until they play us I suppose

Still got 17 league goals and 9 assists so far. Puts him in the top 6 or 7 of both the scoring and assists table. He missed some of the season because of the Asian Cup too.

In fact, he needs one more goal for it to be his second highest league tally in his career, only second behind the season he won the golden boot.

Not sure he's been below average.

There would have been a time, not so long ago that I would have taken him in a heartbeat, now I'm not so sure, probably doesn't help him being in crap team, but anyone thinking of him "destroying us" is fucking one of lifes worriers.

To be fair them stats are pretty good though, especially being away in the Asian Cup, but looks leggy to me, well did on Sunday anyway

Coote is a rag.
Hope he is one of them that would prefer city to win it than arsenal.

I agree. I do think he's lost a step, unless I'm imagining it. He doesn't seem quite as sharp as he was a few years ago. He's coming up 32 though, not old by any means but inevitably you will lose half a step at least compared to in your 20s.

Still, his stats show he still has goals in him. Its a weird one I suppose, saying he doesn't look as dangerous as once he was yet he's on course for his second highest goal scoring season, so there's still plenty of life in him yet clearly.

Did you see his peformance for Arsenal v Bournemouth with the joke decisions giving Arsenal the penalty and ruling out Bournemouths goal. Though we all saw with his FA Cup Final performance that he is clearly a Rag.
Hopefully we don't give Taylor and him any opportunity to give anything against us
