Arsenal (a) match thread

[Shaggy]

Mignolet ; Toure, Skrtel, Sakho ; FLANAGAN, Gerrard, Lucas, Henderson, Cissokho ; Suarez, Sturridge

Johnson is ill. FFS.

[RichC]

Not good news that, they'll be targeting him massively

[little dave hedgehog]

kelly will be sold.

[Shaggy]

Not ideal but moving Henderson there and bringing Allen would've been preferable to Flano. ****in hell. Good luck against Ozil/Cazorla lad.

[Sarb]

kelly will be sold.

Cant see that. Didnt he recently sign a new deal?

I dont fancy our chances today to be honest. At least Chelsea lost

[Marina]

Have I missed anything re: Martin Kelly?????

Not ideal but moving Henderson there and bringing Allen would've been preferable to Flano. ****in hell. Good luck against Ozil/Cazorla lad.

Hopefully he steps up and takes his chance, it's not ideal but I can see why he's not wanted to break up that midfield after last weekends performance.

[little dave hedgehog]

no, he's still lovely, marina.

[Shaggy]

Szczesny, Sagna, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Gibbs, Rosicky, Arteta, Ramsey, Cazorla, Ozil, Giroud

[RichC]

We've got to get at that midfield from the get go today

[Fredo]

Not ideal but moving Henderson there and bringing Allen would've been preferable to Flano. ****in hell. Good luck against Ozil/Cazorla lad.

Weird selection that. He must have seen something in training. He could have easily shuffled it back to a 4-2-3-1 or 4-1-1-2-2.

[Shaggy]

McLaughlin even?!

Hopefully Flano repeats that performance on his debut v City.

[Marina]

no, he's still lovely, marina.

why is Flanagan starting instead of him?

[Shaggy]

Arsenal subs: Fabianski, Vermaelen, Monreal, Jenkinson, Hayden, Akpom, Bendtner
