    Unconfirmed rumours on twitter:

    Chris Wheatley ‏@GoonerTalk

    Arsenal's first three Premier League fixtures (unconfirmed): Sunderland (H), Fulham (H), Southampton (A)

    Not too bad if true...

    Heard of this too. Not sure if you can say they will be easy new teams always tend to start well and fulham and sunderland aren't any pushovers. Mess these up and we are in for an uphill task. The fact that we are expected to win all three wont help much as our main problem has always been psychological.

    I thought the London clubs could not get any home games because of the Olympics?

    If this is it then I can see
    Sunderland (2-1 Win)
    Fulham (1-1 Draw)
    Southampton (0-2 Win)
    7 Points out of 9 wouldn't be bad.

    Wouldn't be a bad start if so.. Will wait for the official ones first.

    Same here. I wouldn't mind Newcastle first, away at the Sports Direct Arena, thrash a potential top 4 rival (and the easiest one too, give the team some confidence)

    I wanna speculate on our fixtures ... I reckon we will have to play both Man U AND Man City twice next season ... I don't know how we can avoid it to be honest now that City are champions .......

    Looking at the fixtures, I think it's important to see where we play after a CL game.

    CL game 1

    Man City away. That's tough but City will also be in the CL, so let's hope that we get a home game first in the CL while City get an away game in Russia.

    CL game 2

    West Hame away. Another away game and playing against Fat Sam's team. Could be tough.

    CL game 3

    QPR home. Pretty good.

    CL game 4

    Fulham home. Again, pretty good.

    CL game 5

    Aston Villa away. Not the worst away fixture.

    CL game 6

    WBA home. Perfect.

    So after CL games, we have three home games and three games. Can't argue with that.
