Which team would you rather lose the unbeatenrun to?

[voomboom]

I cant decide, possibly pompey, cos their fans all seem to be secret gooners anyway, or norwich with an early goal from bently perhaps?

Um .. none?

 

[Soler]

Midtable obscurity.

 

[calvinngai88]

Hopefully none, but wouldn't mind if it's lost to Portsmouth, their fans will still cheer Arsenal players on, and not jeer.

Why would you want our own player to end our unbeaten run? Cant happen anyway, loan players cant play against the club that own them. I dont want anyone to beat us and when we do eventually get beaten i couldnt care who it was against really, a loss is a loss.

 

[robix]

i don't want to lose, obviously...but i'd also say pompey, mostly for their fans. i've never been so impressed by an opposing side's fans than away to pompey in the fa cup last season...

Im sure they can.In fact doesnt Wenger insist on it? He had a whole thing going on about it last season when some teams wouldnt let their loaned players play against them but he said that was ridiculous.In fact Jeffers played for Everton against us and didnt Pennant play against us?!

you dont want to lose to a big team like the mancs or chelsea - but at the same time you dont want to lose to lesser team like everton or crystal palace - so as someone already said i'd want a mid-table side to end it.

Would be absoloutly horrible if man utd were the ones to end the run - even more horrible if it were Sp**s ...... but thats not happening anytime soon with santini in charge !

The rules now state that no loaned player can play against his team - no matter what the manager says.

Actually mate, the new ruling is that loan players can't play against their club. To be honest I prefer to see our loan players playing against us, how else are they expected to learn from the best?

 

[sav7302000]

Yeah thats right!Its all coming back to me! They changed the rule and Wenger didnt agree with it saying its not really any good for the loaned player.Surely the manager should have the choice.Anyway- when the time finally comes I would like it to be Portsmouth but I dont think its really gonna happen, do you?
More likely to be Liverpool I think

Yeah, I agree with that. It should definitely be between the two managers whether or not the player can play. It's a shame though, I wouldn't mind Bentley being the one to beat us - at least he's one of our own

 

[Jose_Reyes_2005]

Anyone know WHY they changed that rule ??

My guess would be because the FA didnt like fans booing their own player if he scores against them - sort of like what happened to Lua Lua when he scored against newcastle.

can anyone clear that up ?

 

[starsky]

Portsmouth.

Their fans were awesome in the FA Cup, I would hate it to be any other club cos they'll just brag and brag

 

[WelshGooner10]

think the Barnet result is about as close as we will come to losing

 

[Alexone234]

If we are going to lose one, if just hope it is in October.

I want the 44 game record too.
