Arsenal - pre match thread.

[GaudinoMotors]

It's more in Arsenal's hands than ours. If they decide to jog about a bit and string a few passes together we're fckd. Don't think our lot can raise their game anymore.

Of course, we do. It remains 100% in our hands to be third. Even 2 nd is amazingly still just possible if Southampton thrash Tottenham tomorrow.

Two games 7 days apart with our BEST team (no hangers on who are saying bye bye) and we are home.

City relished this sort of challenge once upon a time.

If the crowd play their part tomorrow then we can get there.

If it is full of disbelief then that mood will stifle the team.

The choice of side will decide everything.

Pellegrini must be forced by someone at the club to get that right if there is any chance he intends to play favourites for a last hurrah. Cannot do that tomorrow in any universe.

The future of the club not his 'nice man gesture to give his mates a send off' has to take priority.

More so the attitude of the 11 he picks.

We are gun shy and lacking in confidence and that has to change tomorrow 180 degrees.

I have no confidence in MP whatsoever but some in the players.

Yaya in, Yaya out - that is probably the one that will determine the anger on here tomorrow.

Can't see any chance that Bony will start, and whether Delph or Fernando plays won't exactly send people to breaking point, lol.

Yaya bench for me and then as many of our attacking players as possible.

having that rag Anthony Taylor as referee tomorrow seems really "convenient", he's going to be a man on a mission tomorrow.

Havn't we only ever lost once when he's reffed us?
Its the rags who seem to be doing badly lately when he does their games.

The riot squad might be needed if Pellegrini makes a total rick of his team selection - he has ruined the season for so many people me included.

Worried about him messing the last two games up and the Shite getting in CL !

Our record against top 8 teams is deplorable , and i fully expect the Goons to take at least a point on Sunday , which will mean we will be depending on West Ham to do us a favour against the Rags , hopefully the last game at Upton Park and the emotion of the occasion will be too much for a very average Rag team. But even then we will have to win at Swansea who are finishing the league strongly. If we lose 4th place to the Rags and Pep arrives to manage a Europa league club , we will become the laughing stock of football , every man and his dog will be queuing up to stick the knife in .So we need a strong performance from the 1st minute against the Goons, not confident at all about the next two games, sincerely hope the team prove me wrong , but i do not see the hunger in the players anymore , compared to the 2012 or 2014 seasons.

We have stumbled into a nightmare scenario. We actually gave a game away last week before a ball was kicked when we needed the points!

Swansea are bang in form at the wrong time for us too!
