Must win game this, 2nd to 7th is far too close for my liking especially with the rags having a game in hand. Yaya has to play with Ferna in the middle but can see Ferna getting pushed right back if Zaba isn't back in time. What happened to Pablo Maffeo? Is he on loan / injured? Thought he looked useful earlier in the season

He's out on loan in Spain
 
My fear is that arsenal have hit rock bottom. Every year they look like missing out on the top 4 with 10 games to go and then turn it around.

I sense another draw.
 
Arse will win. Maybe a draw if we're lucky. We will miss a hatfull of chances again and the ref will gift them the freedom of Ashburton Grove.

When do we ever win away at Anfield, Emirates, Stamford Bridge, White Hart lane?

We will draw at best.

We really should be able to go to there and win though.

We won at Chelsea last season. I think we have a reasonable record there.

We won at Arsenal a couple of years ago and also in the League Cup before that. I expect us to win well on Sunday

Just read that Sterling is a doubt for the game due to back injury, Southgate said Raheem had stiffness in his back before Lithuania and he still played him and it got worse, what the fuck is that?

That's International football for yeh and all for the sake of a game that most have put 90% of the TV audience asleep.

Why don't you skip down to Pep's pad and ask nicely if you can give the pre-match team talk? We badly need your PMA!!

WTF - None of our players being injured should be considered a positive

There appears to be a small but growing section of our support base that specialise in negativity. They seem to think that all our players should be capable of getting into
a world 11 and that we should be scoring at least 4 and conceeding no more than one in games. The player mentioned in this case gets a lot of stick and in fairness his contribution has been varied. But he normally puts in a shift and occasionally a man of the match performance. Certainly we will be in a much stronger position if he is in the squad to face the Gooners on Sunday. It is then up to the manager to decide if he should play.

you are not getting my drift mate it was tongue in cheek, don't particularly want sagna in the team, he's the weakest of the weak links in our squad in my opinion, he can be as fit as a fiddle if you wish just not picked to play

The top teams in London are not an easy away trip for anyone. Since the beginning of 08/09, City have picked up 6 league wins at Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs (25 attempts), 2nd to Liverpool (9 wins) and equal with United.
 
It is weird, but a draw at the Arse and then a draw at the Chavs, psychologically seems better, than a win at the Arse and a loss at the Chavs, even though it is less. points
