Yes but football isn't played on the Internet

Ange doesn't know how to park the bus and that will only play into our hands. Son is a concern despite having a poor season, if we keep him quiet then we have a decent chance of getting the 3 points.

Poor season? Hmm. He's equalled his second highest league total ever. The only time he has scored more league goals is when he won the golden boot.

I guess that's even more cause to be worried, even if he's not as his best, his goal scoring is pretty much as good as before.

Either way I'm not too worried about this game. The players know exactly how massive the game its really a game we can't lose. I trust them to do the job under those circumstances.

The cocks have already complained.

Same team as Fulham as so long as Earl has his shooting boots on we win comfortably.

Unfortunately the fans don't play the games. There might be a couple of local players who wouldn't want Arsenal to win it but the majority are foreign with no feelings either way. Also just like City and United players do, a lot of players from all the London clubs will probably socialise together. If so they'll bust a gut to help.their mates.
If we win it this season it will be our best ever all things considered. No fucker has done us any favours. So called rivals Chelsea rolled over, the rags were pathetic and so were Spurs until they found some fight too little too late. Villa needed the points themselves.

I’m sure remembering every time an Arsenal fan has abused a Spurs player out and about with his family will be reason enough to dry bum Woolwich.

Spurs had a more difficult game vs Burnley than City vs Fulham, and they have fewer options on the bench.

Their LBs are injured, and two of their forwards (Werner and Richarlison) are injured as well.

Guess we are going to attack more on the right (their left) side.

Given that they need to win too, we may try to score early and force them to be more open and take risks. Alternatively, we may try to be patient, tire them down and hit them in the 2nd half, with Doku replacing Kova if we need to score goals.

Let's hope Villa beat Liverpool tomorrow. Would make our task a lot easier.

Over on the Spurs forum. Brilliant.

on percentages that would mean if they have a full ground on tues there will be 42000 home fans looking for a city win and just 15000 cheering them on

True, but it has an impact if a crowd actively doesn’t want the team to win the game

Is Ake not injured?

Grealish maybe back too.

80% of what I’ve seen social media, Reddit etc is spurs fans wanting a defeat. Some saying they’ll even celebrate if we score

Some everton fans were saying the same in 2014.
Then they all celebrated like mad when barkley scores his screamer.
