Revenge

Honestly, wasn't too impressed with them today. We have a good chance to win it with our first eleven + they will go into that game less rested.

 

[boxerumble]

Lose this and 10th place becomes far less realistic

 

[Jack_the_boy]

Losing this would be disastrous. Don’t even want to think about that possibility.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

We pretty strong form in league scored 11 conceded 1 in 5 games. We'll put much stronger performance offensively Southampton not great at defending

Leno
Cedric Holding Gabriel Tierney
Xhaka Partey
Pepe Esr Saka
Lacazette

Pepe earned his place. Partey needs to start. Esr needs to come back and so does Tierney. Gabriel needs games and he got better as the game went on.

 

[novar]

If Walcott scores against us again I'll depart in peace, we all have our limits

 

[Tourbillion]

I utterly despise Southampton, their plucky manager and the fact that Walcott keeps ****ing bossing us.

2-1.

 

[Riou]

I assume (and by that I mean Arteta better ****ing do it!) with Gabby going off and Willian lasting the full 90, that Gabby will start this since Auba will miss out?

Will accept Pepe over Martinelli, but not that gimp Willian.

 

[Rimaal]

His reactions are hilarious. I'm putting this here to compare, & hopefully contrast, with Tuesday's vid.
By the way, our top earners are Auba, Willian then Partey, in that order. He had the numbers up on the screen.

 

[James Bond]

Leno
Cedric Holding Gabriel Tierney
Partey Xhaka
Smith-Rowe
Saka Lacazette Martinelli​

 

[MikeVinna]

I’d like to see Pepe but Saka seems most comfortable on the right as well. I’d play Martin Nelly if Auba is out.

Leno

Cedric Holding Gabriel Tierney

Partey Xhaka

Saka ESR Auba

Laca​

Probably our strongest XI. Starting Saka, ESR, Tierney and Partey here should mean we look much more threatening. Movement and passing was God-awful today surely this will be nothing like that?!

 

[Rasmi]

I see a more comfortable win this time for Southampton. They are just a better team. It’s gonna be tough 4-5 games coming and the mood for Arteta will change

 

[GoonerJay24]

Leno
Cedric Holding Mari Tierney
Xhaka Elneny
Pepe ESR Saka
Lacazette

We have to get back to winning ways but unfortunately I have no confidence in the management here anymore

Is this a guess or a wish?

 

[andeoch1]

Today is the final nail in the coffin for Willian. Willian ‘works’ for Arsenal FC every time he dons our shirt. If I put a shift in at my job like he does consistently, hands down I’m being fired!!

 

[Rasmi]

Is this a guess or a wish?

Educated guess. I think we will lose and I predict a difficult spell ahead. Doesn’t change my views on Arteta. I think if he manages 8th this season it will be seen as ok season

Last time we played them in the league, it wasn't anything better than today. We were lucky to get a point ffs.

Yep they played us off the park at the Emirates first half. The respect we gave them you'd have thought we were playing Bayern.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

we were massively out of form and played with 10 men for like 40Min we played them away last season and won 2-0 comfortably

I knew you'd bring up 10 men like we weren't being battered before that. The game before that last season, it took a 96 minute equalizer for Lacazette in a game we should've lost. Anyway, I hope we do put in a better performance and win, all I'm saying is I am not expecting it nor does it look promising, does it?
