I'd say you go into this game as favourites. We're top, but you're playing much better at the moment.

I can't see us beating you, if we shut down Suarez, Sturridge will have a free run, if we shut down Sturridge, then Suarez is going to have a field day. And Flamini is injured, so we're relying on Arteta and Ramsey.

 

You're top and at home. Like it or not, you're favourites

 

You could have Coutinho to worry about too

PS...I don't think we'll win and we're not playing that well, yesterday was the first time this season we'v performed in the second half

With Coutinho and Suarez it means we'll be fielding a young Wizard and a Magician - Is that actually allowed in the rules?


Arsenal are favourites, but we've got a good chance. Get our front 3 interchanging and linking up and Arsenal's defence won't know it's arse from it's elbow. We just have to be strong in midfield as Arsenal have the most balanced midfield in the PL imo. Should be a great game, I'm quietly confident we can pull it off, although no doubt it's gonna be a tough game. Bring it on I say.

It's also useful they're playing midweek, although I expect a very different starting 11, a midweek distraction will go in our favour

 

Who does Cout replace Henderson? Cant see us doing that, we will get over Run in the middle of the park if we try and play 2 in the middle

 

3 away games we are guaranteed to not win. Arsenal, Chelsea and Man City.

I'd take the draw.

 

Ignore Kyle. He's a mopey goth

 

And goal difference (if we both win )

 

We know

So what's your prediction for the game?

 

Highest number of goals for, I thought?

 

I'm hoping Suarez does a middle-finger celebration to the Arsenal fans if he scores. I reckon the team will be up for this, to prove what an awful decision it would have been for Suarez to go to the library.

 

This ^ Don't try and put the 'favourite' tag on us.

I just remembered. Johnson went off injured on Saturday and was replaced by Kelly.

With Kelly returning from a major injury Arsenal may not be the best game for him to start.

Henderson at RWB could be very likely.

 

Think it might of been a precaution to be honest, we were 3-0 up at the time and he took a slight knock in the first half but was able to run it off.

 

Either 1-1 or a tight 2-1 win for the Arsenal

 

No Henderson at RWB, just NO!

Johnsons injury isnt too bad then?

 

We stand a good chance at The Emirates. With Flamini out then Ramsey is not going to be the goal-threat that he could have been and I would back Sherts and Sakho to deal with Giroud.

With the possible return of Ford then I can see SaS ripping holes in Arsenal's defence. I'm so optimistic that I'll post a 1-1 draw!!!
