look at the fixtures, we're gonna play 5 premiership games in a month, liverpool and newcastle in 2 days?

and if we march through the champion league quarter or semi finals, there will be more!

[Arsene]

Newcastle away is the worst, but we could slip up at any of those fixtures, except for Sp**s.

 

[zerofeel]

jam packed schedule but i think the gooners can cope with such heavy fixtures since they are matured enough this season to grind out results but Newcastle away is always tough...hope that all the senior players will not be bog down by suspensions or injuries..we have such a small squad!

 

[lewdikris]

We went through it in October... we'll deal with it then. Championships are about momentum - momentum gets you through that kind of schedule.

 

[Adam]

It's good when you have games in tight periods. Winning in cycles is more efficient.

If we get into a good winning mentality - then these games could be routine.

When you don't have time to think about a game too much - you can rely on ability much more than the psychological factors of the match. You start to rely on your winning foundation that you have established over the last few fixtures - you fall back on it as a safety net and as a style. Template winning!

Lets cheer the team on for these matches. Looking at matches during the liv, man , chelsea matches .. we coped very well

lets hope we do brilliantly this time

To be honest, we are missing strikers. Jeffers actually was quite ok until the stupid red card incident. If we can give him another chance ... maybe

Oooops .. i can detect many ppl screaming at me now!! *Hides from jeffer blasters* ;D

 

[bobbypires]

5 games 5 wins

 

[Gooner83]

I can see why Wenger is keen to get Bergy and Wiltord back to give Thierry a rest.

 

[thegame24]

Sp**s are gonna get bum rushed on my birthday

april is cool for me. arsenal like these pressure games!

and so do i, it means more arsenal on the TELE

 

[A.Hussain]

wenger better bring back pennant now. seeing how freddy is coping with injury. we might lose for the rest of the season if wenger doesnt let him heal and plays him for this entire cycle of games

Last season the mancs had to play us, liverpool and newcastle in a row. They won 5 out of the 6 matches and thus proved they were worthy champions.

At the start of this season I said we had to prove it as well, we have picked up 10 out of 12 points against man utd, newcastle, liverpool and chelsea. No other team has a record this good, now we gotta pick up at least another 9 against those teams again.

I see no reason for us not beating all of those sides.

 

[Mark]

liverpool and newcastle in two days though, those are tough. if there was a longer length of time between them i wouldn't be worried, but they are tough physical games and especially since it's nearly the end of the season a lot of players may be tired. the rest shouldn't be a problem.

 

[AFCG7]

Sp**s are fighting relegation.. will be a very very tough game.
They gave us hell at Highbury..what makes u lot think we will beat them so badly at ****e Har Lane???

 

[laolu]

it's april, there is no how we won't have games like that: that is the price you pay for being in the EPL. Adding CL and Fa cup games (hopefully) is the price we'll pay for success. If we plan to win on many fronts, we have to be ready to pay for that success

... it doesn't come cheap

by the way, it could get worse or better, fixtures could still be changed and all that

 

[zerofeel]

gawddd....tats rite...more ARSENAL on the TELE... :mrgreen:

 

[ilovehenry]

They gave us hell at Highbury..what makes u lot think we will beat them so badly at s***e Har Lane???

Only two games a season they actually get fired up for, and they really needn't bother.

:roll:

It will be at max 7 games and you have to add if we do get to the semi's in the FA Cup we'll get Pompey moved or the FA Cup moved to another day. I don't think the Newcastle game is absolute yet either.

There will be a lot of chopping and changing between now and April as well to compensate for our schedule.

he will extend and extend his loan...... ops:

 

[Exiled In Newcastle]

The Newcastle games an evening kick off, but the rest are all 3 o'clock on Saturdays!!! Woohoo!!! Thats the most amazing thing about those fixtures

 

[leongsh]

Does not matter who Arsenal have to play, whether at home or away. It will be one match at a time. Arsenal will deal with the matches when they come. More importantly for Gooners who don't have a season ticket at Highbury is that more matches involving Arsenal will be televised
