Arsenal v Birmingham - EPL | 17-10-09 | 3pm |

[Proof]

Now, that the international boring weekend is behind us, it's time get back to the Arsenal. I would love us to score 4 or 5 goals and it's a good time for Eduardo to take a bit of revenge on 'the Blues'. The good news is that Martin Taylor will be on the bench. Chelsea will have a tough match at Villa Park -against PL's best defence so far- so we could take advantage of that.

- Mannone -
- Sagna - Gallas - Vermaelen - Clichy -
- Diaby - Fabregas - Song -
- Rosicky - Van Persie - Arshavin -

We really shouldn't have a problem winning this. Birmingham aren't great away from home so i will expect a few goals here. A clean sheet would be good too.

Mannone,
Sagna, Gallas, Verm, Clichy
Rosicky, Fabregas, Song
Walcott, Van Persie, Arshavin

If not Walcott, i'd like Eduardo.

By the way, what's the latest on Almunia?

The date in the title can't be right:

07-10-09

Still a little too early to predict the team as there's another round of internationals this Wed, but Eduardo hat-trick, and Diaby to do his clumsy, ankle-smashing, femur-cracking, metatarsal-breaking tackle routine.

Eduardo to score.

thought Eduardo was injured still?

and as dbig said, we're not out of the internation break yet.. will wait until after Wednesday before predicting a lineup..

would like to see some of our players be rested for those countries that have already qualified or guaranteed themselves a playoff spot or been completel eliminated (including Vela-qualified, van Persie-qualified, Arshavin-playoff, Fabregas [will be out on his family issue], Bendtner-qualified, Vermaelen-out, Ramsey-out, Gallas/Clichy/Sagna/Diaby-all playoffs, Theo-qualified, Eboue-qualified)...

cant remember who else, but i know Senderos, Rozza, Eduardo (if not injured) are all still playing for a chance to qualify or get to the playoffs...

 

[progman07]

Our best XI should be playing:

Almunia

Sagna Vermaelen Gallas Clichy

Song
Cesc Rosicky

Theo RvP Arshavin


There is amazing potential in this lineup.

 

[USArsenal]

if everyone comes back healthy, i could certainly deal with that lineup.. but we all know Diaby or Eboue will play as well

 

[Unforgiven]

Does Taylor still play for Birmingham?

 

[USArsenal]

he does... proof mentioned in the first post that he will be on the bench (not sure how he knows that, but anyhoo)

 

[Klaus Daimler]

Taylor won't play this one according to Physioroom, official reason being "ankle injury". He's scheduled to be back again around october 24th. Good choice from Brum there. I don't think anyone would have been able to guarantee his safety in London.

Speaking of Brum: There is no other team in the Premier League that I hate as much as the spineless, ****y, useless ****ups that constitutes Birmingham. Not even Sp**s. Sp**s are a joke, and jokes are funny. There's nothing funny about Birmingham though. They're just one big travesty of a football club.

 

[IBL]

Ordinarily I'd say this is 3 points in the bag but seeing as we're coming back from interntationals I'm not as confident. We should still have the quality to win but dont expect a sizzling performance as our last was....and I'd really like to beat this team and beat them good

 

[HollandGooner]

should crush them with our attacking team.
but i expect a late 4-0.

 

[Lord Dula]

im heading to this one - anyone wanna meet up for a pre match pepsi?

 

[AshburtonGhost]

Pepsi, Dules? You been going to AA or something mate?

 

[alboots101]

I`m going....does anyone dare?

 

[Shadow Moses]

C'mon Arsenal. Is Edu fit? If so he has to play

 

[kamikaze80]

lets trash these ****ers

 

[bojed]

6-0 to us.

Verminator x2
Gallas x1
RvP x1
Cesc x2

I'd be down for a couple colas before the game.
