Yea don’t think it will be a tough game. Wont be a blow out but arsenal will
Attack and we play so much better when we have space as well. Looking forward to it

yep totally agree.

 

[hihosilva]

Ill try
Ederson
Walker Dias Laporte Cancelo
Debruyne Gundagan Bernardo
Mahrez Foden Sterling

My only worry is Bernardo may need a rest. He has played non stop continuously for a few months.

Play Swindon in the cup the week after so he's likely to get a rest then

 

[Prater70]

Fuck sake, Attwell is ref!

Winifred?

Pray he does not pull a hamstring before then. Need him to be fit and raring for the season.

 

[mcfcinprague]

My 2nd away game of the season (went to Brighton), not been to the Emirates before, looking forward to it.

Says Covid on physioroom

As far as I know, that’s the only place that states he has Covid, the official line from the club is he’s not fully fit. Nobody has actually asked Pep what’s wrong in his press conference, unless I’ve missed something

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Obviously Arteta has it (hope he's alright), so not unreasonable to expect a couple of others have got it.

However, they had a full 20 man squad on boxing day and that's not including players they've just left out of the squad like Aubameyang.

So it would have to be quite the outbreak for them not to have enough players.

Aubameyang might even get a game if Arteta isn’t there.

Hopefully at full back.
