Shouldn’t underestimate this young Arsenal side. Saka, Rowe-Smith and Odegaard will cause us problems with their energy in midfield. Defensively they’ve been better lately. It’ll be important to get a couple of early goals because I can see us getting a little leggy in the second half. Be happy with a draw and delighted with a win.

Is he fit enough to start though? If he is then brilliant.

Fit enough to be on the bench, no way he will start having not played for several weeks.

Ky has returned to training

we need to put atleast 5 past them, else I will be disappointed. they have shit players who are good at beating shit teams. they are nowhere near us

Arrogant much, JCL ?

Why not make Arsenal look like Bon Accord?
Arrogance of some is astounding.

So is the negativity of others. Just having a bit of fun. We have made far better teams than Arsenal look very average. Get a grip man!

Excellent to see kyle back. Not sure what condition hes in and whether hes ready to start a game yet.

at least we’ll be playing on a decent surface at arsenal. They have a fairly shit defence so we should get chances. Think gundo might play the 6 for this one. Probably see mahrez and raheem back too

Do we think it's covid and he's waiting on 2 negative LFT's or injury niggle?

Cannot play Gundogan at DM. Arteta will ruthlessly expose that weakness.
