As long as we dont show them too much respect like we did with Liverpool we should win.

 

[roz]

There for the taking. Pepe from the start please.

 

[Jury]

City without him is like Barca without Messi. Partey has to start now. This is a huge opportunity.

You can see it that way, or see it as another reason to not throw him in underprepared...

 

[Oxeki]

That ****** Sherwood saying we're going to get battered by city.

 

[boonthegoon]

100% confident it won't be the usual 3-0 drubbing. I don't mind the 5 at the back if Tierney is playing. Just don't be over cautious.

 

[Camron]

Still fully expecting this:

That ****** Sherwood saying we're going to get battered by city.

Tbf, Big Tim would have said the same thing if you asked him this question in 2004...he is Mr Consistent when it comes predictions about The Arsenal!

If we play to Arteta’s instructions we’ll win this game. That’s with or without Partey. Citeh look a shell of the side they were two years ago. Massive outgoings and questionable incomings.

The lads believe they can win games like these now and that will be key. No De Bruyne is a huge plus for us. He tends to have blinders against us and his likely deputy (Bernardo Silva) hasn’t quite captured the form of two seasons ago either.

We can do this.

 

[CaseUteinberger]

Like that Partey wasn’t all smiles in the pictures. Hope he will bring some needed seriousness and edge to our team. A don’t **** with me mother****er attitude. We need some of that. Think though he is young Tierney has that. Gabriel seems to have some of that too. Maybe I am just dreaming but one can hope.

That ****** Sherwood saying we're going to get battered by city.

To paraphrase the great Jury: What a steaming pile of old ****!

If @GDeep™ was a pundit, he’d be Tim, wouldn’t he? Terrible stuff.,

Arteta to bring Raheem Sterling to the carpet.

Sterling Auba Pepe

Legooooooooooo

[Riou]

Not a bad shout...but rumors were that police used to let Adam Johnson watch football with them in jail and give his "expert opinion" on the games at fulltime.

So, I guess there is one "pundit" G is closer too than Tim...

 

[2Smokeyy]

No Tierney? Massive blow if he’s not allowed to play.

Also, Partey and Pepe both have to start. It doesn’t matter if Partey has had one/two training sessions or Pepe is too inconsistent, for what we paid for both they have to be thrown in and be the difference makers in these sort of games.

 

[rich 1990]

We should be able to win 11 v 6

 

[A_G]

We should be able to win 11 v 6

Looks like 11 v 11 to me. And you say Trilly can't count?

 

[2Smokeyy]

AMN and Thomas Partey either side of Xhaka when we’re overloading the midfield is going to be fantastic.

I think their athleticism is going to hide how poor Xhaka is off the ball. Got a feeling we’ll overpower that City midfield if we go with AMN, Xhaka and Partey.
