Arsenal v Spurs Sunday 23rd Nov 430 PM

Klaus

We'll see what the squad is really made of over the next few games. I'm expecting Saka to step up in a big way and show why he's one of the best players in the world.

Yeah, they're 5th, but lets be honest, outside of City (in the second game of the season), they haven't beaten anyone of note. Burnley, Leeds, Everton and West Ham. (13, 16, 17, 18). They are better than last season, but at home, i would expect us to win this game, even if its the NLD.

We were a little short v Sunderland, but i think we all agree that game could have gone different if Arteta made better subs toward the end. Hopefully we get one or 2 players back (GabMart & maybe VG?) We'll see what Arteta says at his presser.

Qwiss

USArsenal What makes you think Arteta will make better subs now? This also comes after an international break which always throws up weird performances. We are better than Spurs and should be winning it but I feel like people are being a bit complacent. If we had Gyokeres and another attacker back I'd be a lot more confident.

Maybe learning from his mistakes? He learned from his conservative nonsense approach against Pool and City earlier in the season and stopped putting out a Zubi-Rice-Merino trio in the midfield.

This TIFO needs to be amazing after that last embarassment

Sicario2 that's not too bad if true. Means Gyok, Martinelli and Ode should be available hopefully.

Don Pacifico

Sicario2 oh FFS, can't believe Jesus won't be fit!

Saturday will see the return of Gyokeres.

He will barge Romero out the way and then bang one in doing the biggest Bane celebration you’ve yet to see. Big manly forearms on show as they crowd are elated

Qwiss

lorddulaarsenal actually Romero is the kind of player that will snap and give a pen or get a red with all that physical pressure if Gyok is fit. Bring it on.

Have to admit I think this has banana skin all over it.

Post international break, Frank knowing is well, and missing quite a few key players.

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

MistaT big time. Plus Merino up front and no Gabriel 😮‍💨

flobaba

Just don't mess up the tifo this time...

That Sunderland fiasco will have given the rest of the league a few ideas.

This may be a tough game.

Sicario2

SimplyThePest what Sunderland did was hardly rocket science.

But this is a big test given the circumstances and context we find ourselves in. If we get 3 or more of our attackers back (even on the bench) I back us to win though.

Qwiss

SimplyThePest Sunderland got lucky, you can't repeat that by copying their plan.

SimplyThePest

Sicario2 Exactly, it was markedly effective (relative to other approaches we've faced this season) and I imagine that that our opponents will have taken note of it.

Fully expect Spurs to go with a similar approach this weekend.
