Sicario2 If the game was truly must win, it can't become more must win...
And even if it could, surely Man City winning would be the trigger for that?
You're tying yourself in knots.
Gazza M if Odegaard is available and actually fit, he could be the key to a win.
Sicario2 so no Goykeres. Fuck
Fucking hell after the results today I'll be so happy if we win this.
Panda feels like it could really put the jet fuel in the engine if we get 3 points. the win away against newcastle is what sparked this run of the last 2 months. winning his + the boost of some returning players could really carry us through the Xmas period
hopefully the time off with the knee injury gave the shoulder the time it needed to fully heal because we can't be losing him for 3 weeks every time he falls on the pitch.
So Gyok just sitting on his thumbs at home?
Let's marmalise these scrubs.
No Gyok? 😟 hopefully Saka/Trossard/Eze can do the business and be great to have Madueke, Odegaard and Martinelli as options on the bench.
Was not expecting VG for this match. Having Noni, Ode and GabMart available for the bench is a huge plus though. Timber was expected to play and so was Calafiori. (or at least Cala was always going to be in the squad, as he was only sent home during the break as a precaution)
USArsenal if they play hopefully they are really fit and we aren't rushing them back. This will be an interesting test as Arteta's comforting tactics of edging the 1-0 is not likely to be as effective without Gab so we'll get to see what we do to try to address losing that way of playing.

Yeah, i agree, but i suspect that would be why they might not start. But they could come on to make a difference later in the game. Also agreed about trying to nick it 1-0. I suspect we won't do that though. I dont know why, i just feel like we might go for it today (and we should). Im just not sure who we will see up front.
2-0, Saka and Eze.
If Ode is actually fit Arteta will start him.
Qwiss
The truth is, ideally, we would have Ode starting and Eze on the left. Though still who to put up front in that scenario? Trossard? Merino?
USArsenal Arteta will start Merino
Mirth
Yeah, im sure it will be Trossard, Merino and Saka up front.
If the atmosphere's electric, I expect a 3-0 drubbing even without a CF. Our best home performances in the NLD come when the crowd are hyped and it feeds to the players.
