    This could be a good game for Rosicky, but I doubt he'll play

    I should also have mentioned this is a game that a certain Mr Łukasz Fabiański will have been looking forward to since August.

    Virtually guaranteed a starting place at the Liberty, he will be keen to show his old team mates what he can do having spent so long in the background at The Emirates. I know he had a bit of a reputation amongst some Gunners fans, but there were also plenty who were sad to see him leave.

    Hell definitely be up for it. Hopefully Ramsey will be as well due to his Cardiff roots.

    I'm hoping he's going to have a rather quiet game

    This will be a low scoring tough game (they are all tough in reality) I think we will edge it 1-0 with bony getting the winner with just 2 minutes to play...

    One of my favourite clubs is Arsenal, loved your Thierry Henry days. As for tomorrows game, I feel as long as we up our midfield game, we should capitalise on the home advantage, having said that we do have a good defensive record this season, and I'm going with a 2-1 to the Mighty Swans....<ok>




    PS: This does have the makings of a draw game though.

    This will be a really tough game. I would like to think that we'll win this but after the shambolic defensive performance in midweek, I'm going for a 2-0 Swansea win.

    Szczesny, Chambers, Mertesacker, Monreal, Gibbs, Flamini, Ramsey, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Sanchez, Cazorla, Welbeck

    Nacho Monreal against Bony could be a problem. He could get bullied.

    Surely Nacho can play right back? - then bring Chambers in the middle.

    Or even Flamini at right back?

    I was just thinking this. I think Szczesny has had as many touches as Welbeck and Alexis so far.

    Pattern of play so far suggests that Swansea are going to dominate possession and we'll look to hit them on the counter. I actually think that could suit us.

    Looks like Swansea's injuries will give us some advantage here, they may lose their captain and main CB.
