Arsenal away pre match thread

[paulchapo]

When was the last time we got a win at l'arse?

We won there in a league game when they had a man sent off,not sure when exactly but it was fairly recent.

I think Pellers will do what he did when we went to the swamp and set up not to lose. Against his attacking ethos, but I think he would be satisfied with a point on this occasion.

I hope so.

Fancy that.

Mike Dean presides over an Arsenal loss!?

 

[The Count Of Monte Cristo]

Really confident for this 1 looks like arsenal will only really have ozil as a real game winner on the pitch where as we will have yaya, silva, kdb, sterling, aguero!

And Bony. ;-)

 

[bluemoon98]

nice of the team today to go to the childrens hospital and meet them :)

not really sure where to put this ...

 

[sam-caddick]

I hope so.

I agree as well.

Arsenal have to play us, United, Liverpool, Everton, and Spurs away from home in the second half of the season.

Going all out to win this game is naïve if you ask me, a draw would be a good result, especially considering our defensive displays recently.

They will start fast and try and blow us away early and we will start as slow as usual,it'll be a car crash

I don't mind losing. I do mind suicide note team sheets and not fighting. But we just have to hope that they are up for it. It's not like we are not as good as them on paper.

We should really be wary of set pieces especially corner kicks. As they have a few players that head the ball pretty good, particularly giroud and koscielny. Really wish Kompany could have a part in this game.

No way should Yaya start this one. Delph and Fernandinho need to protect the back four. I might even sacrifice an attacking player to throw Fernando in there as a last resort.

Fernando shouldn't be anywhere near our first team based on his last few showings. At stoke he was a disgrace to the shirt.

If we used that criteria, there are a few who shouldn,t be getting on the bus to London.

I'd like to see
JH-
BS-NO-EM-AK
KdB-Dinho-YT-Nando-FD
RS.
That's presuming Kun isn't completely fit. If he is then Nando out for RS.

Sub Silva for YT.

And we need to hold the ball up front so Sterling and KDB for me either side of Bony with Silva in behind.

Very true. I agree with what Joe is saying in the press. The performance needs to be a million percent better than it has been if we are to get a result. I'm guessing there's been some very frank talking going on behind the scenes.

Lets hope so. Certainly the team has looked out of sorts for a few weeks now

Fernando is injured. A lot of people have him in their team above, you need to rethink that
