Like !

Got a feeling it will be tough. Arsenal unlike rags or spurs can hold on to the ball and keep it for large periods. They'll look to frustrate us. I can see it being a tight game. Hope I'm wrong.

Well the 7-0 thrashing of Norwich, the 5-2 smacking of CSKR, the 6-0 drumming of Spurs. I couldn't attend any of these but I'm going today!

Sorry!

Expect we will get embarrassed today

4-1 win

Yes you are wrong ... lasts he came up to manc to play the rags he bottled it and sat back ... if they do that, we'll be all over them ... and if he comes out, then even better as it'll be more open for us ... 5-1 and there's only one winner here today!

You forgot what started it all ... that too was a result similar to your prediction ... 4-1 ;)

Love the optimism, hope you're right. I imagine they will put in a decent showing vs us as they normally do.

A nice early goal would settle any nerves and set us up for a big win.

I think we will see this line up:

Pants
Zab
Kompany
Demi
Clichy (if not injured)
Yaya
Fernandinho
Nasri
Navas (possibly silva)
Beast
Aguero

Be surprising if silva doesn't start.
Most probably expect them to score so it will be 3-1

Dropping Milner?

Very attacking.
Hope back 4 can keep it neat and tidy today so our front 5/6 can go for it.

Not a surprise. A big opportunity for Nasri to show he can play well with Silva.

Perfect.

I really think the more they come out to play with us the better. If you look at our results, teams that give us the ball and pack it in we struggle with. Teams that gave tried to come out and play we have absolute destroyed besides Bayren home. I find myself more and more worrying about games against smaller teams that are just trying to get a result rather than a bigger squad who actually thinks they can hang with us.

A lot of rotation in Arsenal's team, too. Sagna, Monreal, Ramsay, Walcott all in. Will be tough.

Happy Pantillimon has kept his place. Not so happy that Clichy is there.
Other than that great side.
