PL: Arsenal vs Birmingham City | 01/05/04

[KingReyes]

Why haven't we discussed the match yet. Just because we are champions doesn't mean we stop here.

Edu is out and Freddy is back for the game tomorrow.
Edu out, Freddy in


Match Preview

Forsell has been ruled out of the squad according to a Brum site which is good news for us I guess.

I predict Wenger to make only minor changes as he is aiming for the unbeaten record like the most of us.

I say we win 3-1

Come on you Arsenal

 

[Arsenal1989]

Wengers already said he wants to go for this record, and plus the Arsenal will be on a high since winning the title.

I predict 2-1

henry and Reyes

 

[JGooner]

I hope he plays at least one or two youngsters, even if it's just for the second half.

 

[thegame24]

I reckon Arsenal 4-1 Birmingham

I would like to see Reyes score, and the other players to make an appearence to get a farewell medal.

 

[Mark]

I'd like to see a lineup like this:

Shaban

Lauren Toure Campbell Cole

Wiltord Vieira Gilberto Ljungberg

Reyes Henry

Subs: 1. Stack 2. Aliadiere 3. Kanu 4. Parlour 5. Keown

Pires deserves a rest after a lot of games this season and I hope we see Aliadiere, Kanu and Keown come on so they can get their medals. My prediction: 2-0 to the Champions! Ljungberg and Reyes.

 

[Split]

had to give up my ticket to this one, as I am too busy with work!

 

[Eastrek]

Stack
Lauren Keown Campbell Clichy
Ljungberg Gilberto Vieria Pires
Aliadiere Reyes

(SUBS: Kanu, Shabaan, Henry, Senderos, Parlour)


3v0 to Arsenal

Birmingham are not an easy team but I think the day will belong to us

Aliadiere, Reyes and Pires

 

[dsurg]

THE CHAMPIONS HAVENT CELEBRATED AT HIGHBURY SO.....anybody thinking AW wont play is best team just may not know uour manager quite well. I predict the line-up to be:

Lehmann

Lauren Kolo Sol Cole

Freddie Gilberto Vieira Pires

Reyes Henry

on the bench

Stack, Kanu, Ali, Wiltord, Keown

 

[Alexone234]

Keown and reyes will come on at some point otherwise there won't be enough games left for them to get a trophy.

Why no Bergy? Is he injured or something? Surely he'll be on the bench atleast??

 

[GoonerGurjit]

I reckon we'll play in a super-relaxed manner and turn on the style. 5-0.

 

[thegame24]

I swear Reyes only needs one

 

[flotz]

i really hope to see aliadiere and maybe senderos or hoyte
i say 3-0

 

[RocktheCasbah]

2-0 I think.
Can't see Shabaan playing, why would he? I hope Ali starts, with Reyes or Dennis.
And SW11's injured isn't he?

 

[Arsenal1989]

I swear Reyes only needs one

yeah he does as does kanu

the mighty keown needs 4 games and Ali i think needs 4 games too?

 

[RocktheCasbah]

Ali's needs 3, I think.

 

[Arsenal1989]

ahhh Right..

What about stack? since he played in the carling cup does that really count?
or is it only EPL that counts?

 

[GoonerGurjit]

No. Only Premiership games count...

 

[Arsenal1989]

ahh ok

 

[GoonerGurjit]

I think Keown will come on in each of the four remaining games. To be honest I don't harbor much hope for Kanu getting a medal.
