Arsenal (A) Build up

[Shaggy]

Their bench is ****ing rubbish.

Their bench is ****ing rubbish.

I haven't heard of half of them!

Sagna at left back, Jenkinson at right back according to Wenger.

We should play Downing on whichever flank Jenkinson is on.

[Red_Polo]

Well, I for one think we'll nick a win.

[Shaggy]

Well if he's right back then Downing gets to take him on. Could be a good avenue for us, that.

[Mostar]

Contain Arsenal for 60 minutes and bring on a rampant Suarez to run at a tired Arsenal defence and have a similar effect to Aguero on Monday.

We'll leak the goal as they will be pressing us time and time again.

We don't really have pace (need Suarez to link up with Downing as Carroll will slow things down) nor creativity upfront to hurt them on counterattacks.

Arshavin worries me the most, that weird looking **** always decides to play his game of the season against us.

As long as our movement is up to scratch, we shouldn't need pace.

Have faith.

Fair point RedReet

Was really looking forward to seeing us tear Arsenal apart and with Suarez on the bench and I'm not so sure that will happen.

My concern is that they will score first with our more defensively minded setup and we'll play the catch up game.

While oddly a lot of our bench is better than our starters.

[Gibbo]

We are going to be hoofing like there's no tomorrow

Carra ---------> Carroll - head down, no-one running onto the ball.
Agger ---------> Carroll - As above
etc
etc
etc

We will look how Sunderland did last week.

If RVP plays like he did last week then we should be fine. Arshavin's heart doesn't seem to be in football anymore, so hopefully he shouldn't be too much of a concern.

Perhaps you're right but I don't feel as optimistic as I felt before the game.

I'm really nervous now.

[RedReet]

I need to be. Can’t handle another weekend if we don’t get a good result.
