[El Duderino]

Have a wedding in a few minutes, will likely be hungover for this. Does not augur well.

Do yourself a favor and just keep them flowing at a steady pace till the show is over.

 

[How Soon Is Now]

Officially matchday!!!!

Only 16 hours until Rob Holding is burying the ball for his hat trick.......And Cech will be really angrily picking the ball out the net, frustrated at the third own goal.

Of course I'm kidding. Let's do this!!! Son will be starting his penalty awarding slide tackle any minute now. Plenty of time for Sanchez to trip over it.

You'll be numb to any pain at least........ops:

I think we have to go with the same starting line up vs City with Welbeck in for Giroud. The likelyhood is that Potch will match the formation so it will be down to individual battles with the key ones being down the flanks and in central midfield.

 

[Ricardo ja crispy sanchez]

Sp**s operated chokers, arsenal win this easy 3-1. Sanchez to score and alli sent off.

I hope you were the priest.

Shame we're not playing the last game ever at WHL.

Would have been more appropriate.

True. Although a loss to us would bring the finality of their tennancy truly home :bounce:

 

[bingobob]

Pumped for this.

 

[Deathstroke]

Pumped for this.

Same here, though not sure why. A couple of weeks ago, I would've expected us to get a sound thrashing in this fixture.

 

[Lady_Gooner]

Excited for this match - which means it'll probably be a massive let down. Hopefully our budget chelsea style works but I see us getting massively exposed tbh. Oh well, seasons nearly over!
Come on Arsenal!

 

[Makingtrax]

Like the Man C match, have a good feeling about this for some insane reason. A bit like going to the dentist and you know he's going to say that the the twinges are just sensitivity, before you get in the chair.

 

[bojed]

The road to St Tott's starts tonight.

Come on you Gooners!

You know that with close matches it 's the ref that often decides games.

After a few lucky games early on we've had a huge swath of poor decisions against us. Offside goals, harsh sendings off/penalties against, missed penalties for us etc.

Mathematics tells us that luck averages out. The City game was a perhaps a turning point.

Hope today Oliver sends off Dier and not Coq, even though they both make two identical clumsy challenges.

Couldn't find ex players thread and this thread is appropriate anyway as today the fans will sing in honour of David (Rocky) Rocastle who would have been 50 this coming Tue if he hadn't died age 33 from cancer. When he died we were about to play the NLD, another reason why this thread is very appropriate. Rocky was a very exciting footballer and a fans favourite. I was fortunate to see him play many times and this quote from David Dein sums him up perfectly.

“I’ve seen the nearest thing to a Brazilian footballer you’ll ever see,” Dein once said, “and he’s from Lewisham.”

Is that a reference to 2006 or just a hope that they don't get 'pasta' defence?

If you're intent on feeding Sp**s fans, don't skimp on the spoiled meat!
