It's been almost 6 years since we've won a Premier League game in the backyard of these inbreds. Let's wipe the floor with these mugs.
If we can beat Stokalona, we'll beat Barcalona easy.
1-3 win Arnautovic, Campbell x2, Nacho.

Any 2 of the 3 of Elneny, Rosicky, and Chambers instead of Falmini and Welsh OJ.

Not the greatest time for the Annual Stoke World Cup Final to pop up on the schedule given the result tonight, but at the same time it gives us an instant chance to move on and get another confidence booster. Hopefully Elneny will be ready to go, seems like Wenger wants to include him from his comments earlier.
What's the word on Sanchez? Is he definitely back? Even if fit he probably only makes the bench so we're looking at virtually the same side we played today. I hope Wenger has the stones to put Chambers in instead of Flamini, I can't bear the thought of watching him and Ramsey, full running and pointing, signifying nothing, at least defensively.
Furthermore, I can't see Man City or Leicester dropping points on Saturday so the pressure will really be on us come kickoff.

Away at Stoke for Elneny's first match? Might as well throw him in the fire and see how he does. If he holds his own there he'll be able to handle most games I would think.
If Ramsey plays as CDM, we will lose.

Remember Monreal being thrown in against Stoke away when he first arrived, IIRC.

4 points out of Stoke and Liverpool away?
I take it. Lets do this!

I dread this game, more than any other. Just one win there since they got promoted in 2008, one!

On Elneny. Wenger said: "He has joined us and we will see if he can qualify for Sunday."

No team better at bouncing back than Arsenal.
When we lost to West Ham 0-2, we beat Crystal Palace 2-1 the game after.
When we lost to Olympiacos 2-3, we beat Man U 3-0 the game after.
When we lost 3-0 to Sheffield Wednesday, we beat Swansea 3-0 the game after.
When we lost to WBA 2-1, we beat Zagreb 3-0 the game after.
When we lost to Southampton 4-0, we beat Bournemouth 2-0 the game after.
Granted, we didn't lose to Pool, but it feels like a loss. Wenger said the team should channel their frustrations into beating Stoke. I think we'll see that.

I don't care if Elneny only has 1 training session before the game, doesn't know any of his team mates names, cant speak a word of English, no time to unpack, brush his teeth, know what Country he's in or day of the week it is; Get him in the team for Stoke, god damn it!! I don't want to see Arsenal's version of the Chuckle Brothers (Flamteta) on the team sheet!!!

I'm pretty confident that we'll win there, bad record come from Pulis' era when Stoke away really was our Nemesis, something like Bolton away under Fat Sam.
But now they actually play football which will suit us, Hughes isn't using high pressing + Wenger has good record against him I believe - 0:2 win.

We have lost both games at Stoke, since Hughes has been in charge.
Last season, we managed to get 0-3 behind before HT.
Shaqiri's injured at least
