This could be a fun game and hopefully they will continue their habit of only starting to play after HT by which time we're already 3 up.
it's high time we ended thier run of handy games against no marks and put them right back to where they started the season. they were well beaten first 2 games and the issues they have are still there.
I always want us to win, obviously - but I would agree that a draw away against Arse is a good result. Usually. However, the way things are I think any dropped points are potentially catastrophic. It's so tight at the top and you just know City aren't going to drop many.
I obviously want us to win too. I tend to work on the idea of winning your home games and away games against the lesser sides, anything away to the other "big six" sides is a bonus. Arsenal have improved a lot this season. They are now playing in a similar way to us, Spurs and Man City. However, I do think their defence is there to be got at too.
Just read that Glenn Hoddle collapsed this morning and is "seriously ill" in hospital. Can't say I'm a big fan of his punditry, but I wish him all the best anyway.
Like I say, generally I'd agree, but it seems that this season it's so tight that one slip could be fatal. #nervous
We aren't competing with Arsenal and a draw keeps them at a distance, we're competing with Man City and they got 2-0 there.
for me we need to see really where arsenal are at. 1. look at who they've played lately. 2. look at thier keeper and centre halves. imo a draw isn't disaster but if we are serious about winning this league this is a game we should be looking to win
You can only play who is in front of you. Arsenal have liked good recently, this is going to be a real test for them.
