Come on you Gooners.

 

This is easily the game of the weekend for me, and it's going to be a tough game for us. They have so many different threats going forward, hopefully our defence can have another stormer.

 

I'll say it now to get it out of the way.



We're going to lose this match

 

Kyle!
Cheer up chuck.

 

Hey, it worked against Hull, so why not try again?

 

Kyle's anti prediction strikes again

Keep up the good work Kyle, I particularly liked the way your Bendtner hate helped him score last night

 

Can't believe I'm gonna miss this game. Fuuuuuuuuck!!!!!!!

 

Looking forward to this. Not expecting anything from the game but we know we will go at you and attack and look to be on the front foot all the time which is refreshing.

Same team as against United I think. Deulofeu might come in for Pienaar due to fatigue but I don't think he will.

 

On a serious side, this game will a difficult game at home. Not only is Everton riding high on their win against Manure, but they have a striker that will cause us problems in defence. Lukaku for me is their main danger man. He is probably the most powerful striker in the league at presence and we'll have to double up on him this weekend. We have to keep him quiet.

 

I'm worryingly confident for this game! Either way though my fantasy football team is going to take a humping.

 

Good thing for this game is we have our own big striker in Giroud, he will have had a good week's rest by the time this game comes, so he will be freshened up and could cause some problems for Everton's defence with his workrate.

 

We dealt well enough with Lukaku when we played WBA at the Hawthornes a few months back. Just need to sever the supply lines in midfield and we should be able to isolate him.

 

Everton are playing some good football and they are armed with some pretty good loanees. Although we are playing better, this will be a step up. I am still confident of a victory but we will have to be at the top of our game defensively, especially against the beastly Lukaku.

 

Looking forward to this one.

Before the United game we'd have taken 2 points from the 2 tough aways this week. Now that we've already got 3 in the bag, we should be relaxed & confident coming to the Emirates. That said, you're top of the league through merit & it'll be a tough task to leave with anything.

I think we'll have plenty of power & pace to worry you on the break though.

 

Not with El Classico being played it's not - Sunderland v Spurs!

 

Sagna will most certainly be out, Jenkinson will deputise again. I think Giroud will return

 

Flamini may also be missing for this game, he's injured his groin again according to the BBC, he's also not seen training with the 1st team squad in the photos released by the club.

 

After today's results, win this one and we're 7 points clear.

Before today's results this game was already huge, but now it's massive. The chance to go seven points clear of Chelsea and eight points ahead of City can't be missed. Come on you Gooners.
