Pep on the Arsenal game : "We need an incredible noise from first minute until the end"

This is a weird one, Arsenal's fixtures are pretty interesting so even if we lose, I can see them dropping points yet. We just need to keep the end of season motor going irrespective.

O'm worrying already....what I'll be like on Wed evening I dread to think.

I'm fine now. But once 6pm passes on wednesday evening, I'll be a nervous wreck. Oh, for a start similar to what the barcodes managed yesterday!

Didn't he once or twice get linked with the managers job at City many blue moons ago ;-)

I'm quite relaxed, we're better than them and more importantly they know it.

 

[BringBackSwales]

I had to think about that!

Gabriel should be worried just as much as Holding, he shit himself in the game at the emirates.

We’ll have them, fuck em.

That Jesus fella is pretty good.

The danger from Arsenal comes from their SERVICE in and around the box. Snuff that out and I just don’t think they can trouble us through the middle.

The second and third runners, especially to the far post, have always been our Kryptonite, because our midfield has traditionally not been the scrappy, hustlers who snap at your heels, so that runner often goes unfollowed and unchallenged.

Arsenal “crash the box” with bodies, so if you can stop that service into the box from wide, you can expose them on the counter and attack their vulnerabilities.

Yes, Jesus is a good player. However, much like Haaland (and every other striker!) if you cut off his supply, you nullify 95% of his game.

Even if the Goons scored a couple of early goals they have shown they cannot play 90 minutes at a top level , the Dippers and the Hammers wore them down , their main problem is Holding , he is a clown and the last game against them he tried fighting Haaland and going toe to toe , which no defender will win. Plenty of goals in this game , we will win 4-2 or 5-2 , in a great game of football.
