Burnley v Arsenal | Sun 26th Nov 14:00 GMT | Turf Moor | Not on UK TV

[tap-in]

After a great win vs Spuds we have to continue with that same passion. This will be a tough game, Burnley are doing well and if they beat us they jump ahead of us in the PL. We have to win this game and if we play like we did last weekend, I'm confident we will.

Obviously our away form has been awful but I'm hoping the buzz in the team from last weekend will help us kick on. Also we are getting close to the top lot now (excluding City) so we really have to be up for this.

Thought I'd add a footnote from Wenger. Great to see he starts with everyone looks alright but it then goes on to say Walcott still out. Planning for life without Walcott

on team news…
Everybody looks alright. There are some kicks because it was quite a physical game [at Cologne], but overall we have no injuries. Everyone who played will be available to compete for the squad on Sunday. That is one of the positives of last night, we have no injuries. The fact we can rotate means the players are less overloaded with competition.

on it being a nice feeling to have those options in such a busy period…
Yes because we play every three days. Apart from Theo Walcott, and long-term Santi Cazorla, all the players are available.

They're better than last season for sure , be a harder game than Sp**s that's for sure .

 

[kraphtous]

The English press are ready to slit our throats as soon as we drop points and they will go absolutely nuts it if it happens against their favorite yer da', Mr Heart and Passion, Grit and Steel.

Need to beat these ****s, preferably at their own game.

What do you say about combined XI?

Mine is:

Nick Pope
Matthew Lowton - James Tarkowski - Ben Mee - Stephen Ward
Johann Berg Gudmundsson - Steven Defour- Jack Cork -Robert Brady
Jeff Hendrick - Ashley Barnes

Think Lacazette just shades in over Barnes, but apart from that you're spot on.

Terrible poll btw @tap-in. What if I think Arsenal will win but without passion, or Burnley will win without it being considered an Arsenal flop?

 

[kopzilla]

Consistency is what is needed...hope we take off from where we left...pleased that Welbeck is back.

You can abstain

This on Sky? Gets too confusing with who has the rights for what.

 

[GeorgiaGunner]

I dunno what to make of this game, to be honest. Feel like anything can happen.

 

[SA Gunner]

Haven’t seen them play yet but their point tally should give us a good indication.

This game will be tough, but we are looking solid. We must make it count early on top open the game to our advantage.

Definitely a tough game but Burnley have only beaten Arsenal once in 12 games dating way back to 1975. They’ve lost the last 6 on the trot.

Must win for us though gotta be keeping pace with the top 4

My optimistic side thinks we'll ride the momentum from Sp**s and win 2-0 (and feel like we left a few on the table as well). His pessimistic counterpart thinks we'll turn in a uninterested performance and lose by the same margin. Think it's an all-or-nothing type deal, but who knows.

If we can win our next 3 prem games id be ecstatic. Burnley and Utd tricky.

Thanks for the reminder. And here I was thinking we never catch a break from the ref....

Wood surely gets ahead of Barnes, even Vokes is in with a shout.
