Looking forward to the Arsenal fan [HASHTAG]#meltdown[/HASHTAG] after we win
 
If we can get a win here then it'll really hurt a rival and so early in the season. All about performing and getting 3 points for ourselves but the damage it does to the Gooners is a bonus if we can do this.
 
Obviously want you to lose but I actually think you will beat Arsenal. Wenger won't get the tactics right.
 
We're gonna lose.
Arsenal will play into your hands, in a less dramatic way than the suicidal Germans did last night.

Everyone knows the way to nullify your threat and where your weak spots are, but some managers appear to have an ego issue with playing in that manner in order to get a result, and Wenger is one of them. They'll come and stand toe to toe with you, and you'll play through them on the counter.
 
If they play 3 at the back Mane & Salah will have a field day with Firm linking them. Obviously we will concede but we will deffo score and i reckon 3 right now.
Well I will go with that
You were bang on on that Watford game being an easy win <laugh><laugh>
Trusted you man
Just like I trusted Jimmy<laugh>

Every so often (most notably at City) Arsenal and Wenger change their tactics
This will be the game they do it this season :emoticon-0101-sadsm

It's actually incredible how these managers don't sit back. As you say, it must be an ego thing.

The irony is Mourinho has the biggest ego but he's the one who doesn't care how he or his team look when playing ugly to win.

Mourinho just wants to win, winning ugly means jack to him, as it's winning

Wenger rarely changes his tack, albeit I'd forgotten the City game that @These are my salad days mentioned, when they did play cat and mouse

So he could surprise us - but I doubt it.
