Arsenal (h) pre-match thread

What has it got to do with Yaya if Foden is selected as a substitute?

I am afraid Yaya is finished at the very highest level, his ball retention and passing ability is still top notch but he runs as if he is in a vat of treacle and completely slows our approach play down to a snails pace.

I said I bet he would mind if he was not selected ahead of Foden
Yes, i agree he is finished at the top level but i would be surprised if Foden is on the bench for this one

DT: "Aston Villa and Nottingham Forrest are big clubs. City are not a big club because I hate them. "

its funny because before the oil money came most people thought city were a big club, a big club with a big, loyal fan base but just shit on the pitch. A proper sleeping giant.
Its funny how money and success can taint peoples view of a football club.

Looking at the league tables, we are actually doing better than Celtic at present.

Mark of a great side ;-)

Maybe you should try not booing all your former players just because they had the audacity to leave your underachieving club. No respect.

That would be a valid point were it true of me
I don't boo former players as I see it counter productive
I can't answer for other Gooners. Like all clubs you get a mix of fans. The idea possibly implicit in your comment that City fans occupy a higher moral plain is risible to say the least

 

[Jack Hackett]

Regarding the match tomorrow, City are very much the team in form and frankly should beat us at a canter

Your football recently has much to admire especially that win ove Chelsea with some of the best football I've seen these past couple of years

Despite that I am part of the current 13 votes in your poll predicting an Arsenal win ;>)

Er, I think you'll find it's a plane actually.

Arsenal will try and kick lumps out of our flair players tomorrow, just like the semi. Just have to hope the referee make sure the big decisions and stops it early on.

The ref is Oliver so no chance of that

Apparently they did not kick lumps out of Silva - Jack the Gooner fan told us that earlier . You are clearly mistaken .

When did the FA instruct their referees to make big decisions and ensure fair play ? Is it their very latest initiative ?
