Any new's on the Koscielny injury yet? I think he is far and away there best defender at the minute, big plus if he is out.
It is still Arsenal and they did beat us last week so I am pretty sure MON will not allow any complacency to creep in. They will be gutted though and who knows what reaction that might produce in their next game. Both managers will set their teams up to go for it as they both want (in Wenger's case NEED) to win something for their long suffering fans this year. I fear the 'wounded animal' though so hope the lads keep it tight and hit them on the break like we have been doing so well recently. I can see (well I am hoping for!) a narrow 1 goal win to us.
20433 seats left to sell at the SOL for the game...which means there is 27567 sold atm i hope we can get to 30,000 + arsenal fans
For once Wenger has come out and had ago at his team, this will either kick them on or knock them down an early goal for us would be great in these circumstances. Last week I feared the 120 minute game would get to us and and when MoN had to start and bring the subs on unfortunately they were not in the same class as, Henry, The Russian and Ramsey. This week I would still make Arsenal favourites but I think we have a better chance. We have to score at least two goals and since we have few options I think Frazier has to play CF, I mentioned above an option to help Bardo out against Oxo, or the Russian. Seb can score goals but he is not great in CM and against Arsenal he is too slow on the wings, but I am reluctant to say drop him. It is going to be very interesting to see how MoN lines us up on Saturday...our squad is just too thin we really could do with another striker to play up front!
