    Erm year it's the day of the match and no thread created so far, until this one!

    As for the game, wouldn't be surprised if we dropped more points tonight.

    I think we will win today, albeit we will make hard work of it, but there's next to no chance of a victory on Saturday. But if we do lose today, we may as well lose every game until the end of the season for all I care because every other part of our season becomes redundant.

    Wenger spoke about the criticism motivating the team to do better. Although the statement was absolute garbage - because there's been no evidence of it happening this season - let's see if anything he says actually holds true for once.

    I'd make two changes, Giroud for Walcott, and Mert for Gabriel.

    I think this is the problem, we play the same way all the time...Lets mix it up... play 3 at the back, or play with 2 strikes on top, or play a 442, something diffrent.

    Quite possible the worst central midfield of any 'big' club in Europe?

    Check out Reddit football steams (google it I don't have the link as I'm on my phone)

    They have some top quality streams on there

    The media are all talking about the game at Upton Park tonight, but we have a very winnable game at home to Swansea and unless Spurs win, then we can claw back some ground on them and Leicester.

    This title race has still got a few twists and turns in it yet <ok>

    Wenger comes to his senses and starts Campbell, whilst dropping Walcott.

    Swansea equalise against the run of play. Ozil was clearly fouled in the build-up to Routledge's goal, how did the referee not spot that? <doh> but we should have played to the whistle.

    Just highlights why arsenal needs a better striker.

    Giroud hits the bar from 8 yards out when it's harder to miss than to score. I can't even be bothered to get annoyed.

    And that's why you won't win the league. A quality striker would have broke the net there.
    But we'll take that :)

    With the way this game has gone, you are very lucky to be level in the game and I still expect us to win. However, you are right that moments like that epitomise why we have struggled to take control of the league this year and why it's unlikely we will win it this season.
