Stoke vs Arsenal 8/5/2011, 14:05GMT

[CandysRoom]

Right then, full of enthusiasm once again for the most beautiful of games, and what better way to continue a momentous victory over Manure than to go to Pullisville, turn over the cloggers and end our season on a bit of a high.

What will Wenger do?
Same team as against United?
Does he play Ramsey?
How do we break their Neanderthal defence?
How do we make sure their Neanderthals don't break us?

Lots of questions, one week to get em right...

Hope someone beats the **** out of Shawcross.

Amen to that!

Too early to hope to see Vermaelen in some capacity? If he doesn't start, it's crucial that Djourou's fit because I can't see a pairing of Squillaci and Koscielny dealing too well with their long throws.

Play with the same lineup as today, apart from Verms coming in for DJ and Arsh for Nasri, and we should be fine.

As long as there are realistic chances for second place we have to go for it, and that means beating those mugs.

Hopefully Ramsey has a blinder and destroys them.

We're a better team so it'll come down to belief and wanting it more. How many times have we played really well against someone, only to go and throw it away next game.

Focus lads, focus hard!

ramsey to amputate both of Shawcross' leg with a blunt meat cleaver

 

[Jury]

Re: Stoke Vs Arsenal 8/5/2011, 14.05GMT

If I was that way inclined, I'd like to pay someone to steam onto the pitch from the stands and lunge two-footed onto Shawcross' standing leg, breaking it in several places. Or maybe just straight through his femur with a sledge hammer.

Not these idiots again. How wonderful would it be for Ramsey to bag a goal here.

I would rather he didn't play, but when the alternative is Denilson, we have no choice. Speaking of Denilson, where have he and Rosicky disappeared to? Hopefully it signals the end of their careers here.

I hope we smash these inbred ****s. Would be nice to see somebody kick the crap out of Tony Pulis.

What's with the odd kick off times? Is 2pm too 'boring'?

Yeah this lineup plus, if available Cesc for either Jack or Aaron, Jack's played a helluva lot so perhaps rest him.

Re: Stoke Vs Arsenal 8/5/2011, 14.05GMT

Dream scenario is for Aaaron to score a 90th minute winner right in front of all their fans. I'm feeling an Arshavin-esque 'shhhhh' celebration, or the Henry one where he slid on his knees in-front of the Spuds fans. That would be just perfect.

Not sure about the injury situation regarding Djourou, but if fit I would go with:

Szczesny
Bac / DJ / Kos / Clichy
Jack / Song / Rambo
Theo / RVP / Arshavin

Why change things around too much after our performance today? If things aren't going to plan, there's always Cesc and Nasri waiting on the bench.

0-2 Arsenal.

I fancy us to comfortably get 3 points from this, as 6 days later, Stoke have one of the biggest games ever in their history.

I can't imagine Pubis not resting at least some of his better players, 6 days before their first ever FA Cup final. They're unlikely to be finishing much higher or lower than where they are now, so this is probably close to a meaningless game for them.

If that is the case, I wouldn't expect to see Shawcross anywhere near this game.

Comfortable 2-0 Arsenal.

I'm not sure. 6 days is a long while long enough to not need to rest players and h might see more benefit in them playing.

We will win anyway.
