Midweek game against Villa who lost 2-0 to Liverpool today at home.
Our next games are: Aston Villa A Wolves H QPR H Fulham A Leeds H (FA Cup) Swansea A Then ManU at home.
We can definitely get a good winning streak going here and get back on track before the big game against ManU. I honestly don't care how we win as long as we do without injuries or additional suspensions. Song is unavailable for this game after getting his 5th yellow so Frimpong or Coquelin should get a chance to play unless Diaby is available (?)
Copying and pasting QS's post from the other thread:
Spurs have Chelsea(H), Norwich(A), Swansea(A). Chelsea have Tot(A), Fulham(H), Villa(H).
I can see both of them dropping a few points so we have to take advantage.
Back on the bike. Villa are shite, so I am hopeful of 3 points. We'll need to make a few changes, but we also need to keep the core of the first XI together. Bennie and Frimmers can come in. I would prob stick Chamberlain on one of the flanks, but Wenger wont.
Thought this game was on wedders
Arteta also suspended along with Song.
Are you sure about that Rex? I didn't see that mentioned when he got booked.
Arteta doesn't have five yellows.
3 for us and 1 for Everton I think. So just 4. Bloody hope he aint suspended.
Why is Arteta suspended? Thought he had only a total of 3 YCs.
Oh, I didn't consider the games he played for Everton.
Looks like he is suspended after all. He picked up one yellow against Blackburn in the league for Everton and another one against Sheffield in Carling cup according to Soccerbase. And he's on three yellow cards for us so far. So Rex is correct. We'll have to make do without Arteta and Song against Villa.
Fuck.
Fuck you Everton.
Arteta has 4 yellows total in the league. He has one in Europe too, are ye counting that?
Frimmers, Coquers and Rammers.
EDIT: SOMEBODY TELL ME IF ARTETA IS SUSPENDED OR NOT BEFORE I FUCKING LOSE IT HERE. I'M A COILED SPRING RIGHT NOW!! FFS!
No Song, no Arteta. Did Per pick up an injury too? I know Villa are hopeless but I never underestimate the ability of a McLeish team when it comes to causing us grief.
So we get punished for a foul he made at Everton? Nice...

You're right. Didn't realise that Soccerbase listed Champions League games but he got one of his yellow cards agaisnt Olympiakos.
He's not suspended then. Nevermind. :hat:

It doesnt matter. Aston Villa are fuking woeful. By far the worse team in the league at home imo.
😆 So he's not suspended now?
😆 No, he's NOT suspended (unless the Soccerbase stats are wrong). Just Song. We'll be alright.
He's only one card away from a suspension though. Would be neat if he picked it up against Villa or Wolves.
