Away Premiership game after such a brilliant run in our games recently and it'sagainst Scums..
The North London Derby is in town folks. After the international break. So it's
After a poor league run for them Scums, they might step up against us. Teams often do, but no way, the way the young lads has been showing these never to die attitude and pushing forward, survive a physical game against Blackburn and Man Citeh, I can't see why we can't win this. It's the North London Derby, statistically we look superior than them. And even on paper in terms of man to man squad. But don't want to be over confident now. Let's show em how it's done and bag those 3 points and on their ground.
Statistics
A Few facts on our Neighbouring Rivals
* In 1919 Arsenal, who had finished only fifth in Division Two the previous season, were elected to the First Division in place of Tottenham.
* Arsenal's biggest home win over Tottenham was a 5-1 rout on October 20, 1934. Arsenal went on to clinch their third title in a row that season, while Tottenham finished bottom and were relegated.
* Arsenal have clinched the league title twice at White Hart Lane. In 1971 and in the 'Invincibles' season of 2003/04, when goals from Patrick Vieira and Robert Pires gave the Gunners the point they needed to be crowned champions.

Sitting 2nd in the league withLiverpool on top, First only seperated by goal differences and the fact that we have a game in hand. I say the start of the season, post Thierry Henry Era, we have done very very well, even plagued with injuries.If the lads can keep this up and go all the way through, I can't see why we shouldn't be in the Title race. Though it's known, that it's still early in the season. but Points no matter how much they are always counts. You can tell that to our Fellow Title Contenders (Manc United and Chavs down there).
Predicted Line-Up
Substitutes
Lukasz Fabianski
Emmanuel Eboue (If fit)/ Matthieu Flamini
Theo Walcott
Eduardo Da Silva
Abou Diaby
I'd go for this line-up though, but might change it after the Internationals game. I'm basing this line up after yesterday's game, and assuming the week before the game, we may have improvement from the Injuries list. Lehmann, Sagna, Eboue, Gallas was not fit but may be in two weeks time. After Senderos' red, can't see why we're not rushing him, unless Arsène still play Gilberto in CB. It's a given that Gilberto is poor at CB. Thankfully, Toure able to clean that one up. We are having problems in defense as our natural defenders mostly out.
but Flamini starting yesterday was pretty unexpected, as I would expect Hoyte to start as he is a natural Right Back, but, Flamini did very well yesterday. As he was pretty solid at that. Taking up challenges, knows how to handle his man. etc.
But the fact that we are scoring from Midfields now is beautiful though, Fabregas found his goal scoring form - as he's been scoring 4 in the last 5 games, - and Rosicky managed to get one aswell. The bet between these lads are great, and its benefits are going for the clubs aswell. So who's complaining? We scored from corners, from midfield. etc.
And the fact that the team spirit shown by the lads last night was brilliant. Despite we were down to 10 men, and the fact we play 2 midfileders in defense after our defender red carded, we didn't fold up. We played football with the lads still pushing forward. Indeed hungry for goals. We didn't play with 10 men behind the ball. That's the brilliant spirit we were crying out for, and hope to see more coming from these lads.
I really can't see why we can't win against Scums, but I'm not going to jinx it by predicting scores. but this is a beaut.
Shall we ?
Will post the "What They Say" Article here, before the game starts on the 15th. And I'm going to have quite the time of doing this. but it's all in a good fun! The fact the turmoil going on in that club with Jol failing to give them what they're craving for. After spending countless millions. Ha!
