Stick or twist?
To Yates or not to Yates?

Thanks for the 7.30 kick off prompt too, that will catch a few out!

Nailed on.

We've got this.

The guns will fall silent and the white flag will be waved in the away end.

I think it’s a good game for us to have.
They are really struggling for forward players, so won’t have their usual threat.
We need to be up for this one

Everything's relative though. They may be short of players to challenge Liverpool at the top, but they've definitely got players who can hurt us badly.

Can’t help but see another defeat incoming.

We appear to have lost our defensive fortitude since the Liverpool game and they are very good from set pieces.

Think that applies to both teams Pap.

Arsenal won't be relishing this match.

My worry is how we played against them in the first game, given they beat us very convincingly.

Both Fulham and Newcastle games were quite similar to the first ones in style and I fear we may see the same thing in the next two games too.

On the plus side, after these two games are over, we've got matches against a lot of teams where our style seemed to matchup a lot better. If we match the results from the first half of the season against the bottom 10 teams we will finish top 5.

I think we have had the better of them in recent matches at the world famous City Ground haven't we?

[Reds73]

They had Saka, Martinelli and Havertz playing, and we couldn’t cope with Saka or Martinelli at all on the day
None of those are playing, plus they don’t have a fit centre forward.
Couldn’t possibly be playing them at a better time
