I’ll take a 1-0 now.
They will set up to boot the shit out of us, time waste and complain about every decision.
We will yet again waste about a dozen chances and score 1. But as long as we score 1 more than they do,that’s all that matters I suppose.

We just beat one of the best teams in Europe. Napoli have conceded 3 goals at home ALL season and we scored 4 in one game like Pep said. Napoli would destroy this current Arsenal side.

We are our own worst enemy. Show up, work hard, play with focus and determination and we’ll win comfortably IMO.

Their defense is penetrable. Conceded 13 goals in the league. Lost to Watford and had to come back to beat Swansea.

Ederson

Walker
Otamendi
Stones
Delph

Fernandinho
Gundogan
D. Silva

Sterling
Jesus
Sane

Subs: Bravo, Mangala, Danilo, Bernardo, De Bruyne, Aguero, Foden

De Bruyne looked tired and played 90 min against Napoli and West Brom both,would be shocked if he starts. Gundogan keeps his place and has more energy right now. Jesus comes back in for Aguero. Some posters here need to get the idea that we have starters and back ups out of their heads because that is simply not the case. The only reason that Bernardo isn’t starting more league games is because Pep wants to ease him, well see the benefits of this treatment come January just like we did with Sane last season.

What a strong squad we have. Walker, David and Jesus to come back in fresh.

We can bring on Aguero, Bernardo amazing.

If we are winning I would give Foden some minutes towards the end (10-15 min). Would mean the world to him and he deserves it after his recent performances. I’m sure Yaya wouldn’t mind. It’s a small gesture to show how much we value him.

Going for 3-1 win for us.

I dont see Foden being on the bench just yet and I think Yaya would mind

This is not the first time you have alluded to this. Do you not feel we are more clinical this season?

You can’t help but feel confident the way we are playing - that’s why most city fans think we will win.

But we are City fans and we always think how are we going to Fuck this up.

Teams can’t live with us and I will be surprised if we lose more than 3 games in the league this season. Next season might be the tough one though, managers get Savi to the tactics. Then again what do you do to stop us...enjoy the ride...

That's the genius of Pep and his management team mate - never stops thinking, evolving, improving, creating.

The idea that Arsenal are a very physical side is ridiculous. You make them sound like Stoke under Pulis.
 
I'm off to the Etihad tomorrow with an early start on the train from Euston

I travel more in hope than expectation and fully expect you Mancs to stuff us but you never know

Should be a good game

I'll be in the away end

My only gripe is likely again to be the lack of trams after the game back to Piccadilly

I bet it rains, too

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.

Yes your public transport in the capital is far superior to ours, but then of cause it has had far more money spent on it.
 
Looking forward to this should be a great attacking game.
Anyone no what the 1894 group have planned for sergio.
Should be something special really

It's often quicker to walk back into town.

Being a Gooner I was actually there

I don't remember us being physical

Quite the opposite, I thought we played well and deserved to win

Weather forecast is good, and walking to Piccadilly is no great hardship.
