Team v Arsenal

Lennon1981 · Aug 30, 2013

The thing I found most funny is arsenal fans genuinely think they will win easily, my gooner mate(everyone has one) has even bet me £10 AND I get the draw! WTF! They think because we won both games 1-0 by a penalty that we are struggling. That's what happens when you only watch motd highlights I guess.

I'm pleased they all think that though it means they will be in for a shock come Sunday

Lewis Holtby on the Arsenal game: 'Nothing would be better than to see those lilywhites jumping up and down in the away end on Sunday.'

Someone at my work even said that we won't win because we simply won't score as Arsenal don't give away penalties. Hmmm.... pretty sure you gave away 2 in your first game mate. Gooners for you! Haha.

I can probably get a ticket for this game... But in with the home fans. Has anyone ever done that at a NLD? I don't think I'll be able to hold it in if we score... Let alone win! I'll probably get lynched. Fml

I did in 1993, the last match we won at Highbury. I nearly did get chucked out.

I couldn't watch a match in the home end again.

I think we'll screw it up again big time. Mind you, I feel that way pretty well every match.

Braver man than me, it would only take one psycho and a bad scoreline for them

Surprised they didn't have the 3-2 to us at The Emirates. That was just incredible, Bale's quality outside of the boot finish from a flick on that Defoe somehow achieved, Rafa's cool penalty before telling the Arsenal fans to 'shhh' and Kaboul glancing a header right into the corner at the end as 'Arry cautiously urged the players to stay on the pitch when celebrating

Love watching that game back.

One of my top moments was the Lennon equaliser at the Library 94 minutes in - 4-2 down with 5 minutes to go!!!

you should wear your spurs shirt hidden and if we hit a last minute winner jump on the seat rip off the over shirt and start chanting 'oh when the spurs'

I would say something like:

Chesny

Sagna
Koscielny
Mertesacker
Gibbs

Wilshire
Rosicky
Ramsey

Walcott
Giroud
Cazorla

Sounds about right, however Wilshere and Ramsey are doubts, Vermaelen, Diaby, Arteta, AOC and Podolski miss for sure. Flamini could feature on bench or even on XI if Ramsey or Wilshere miss out.

- Townsend on merit from the last few performances and his 1st half yesterday

1st half yesterday? Well taking whole game yesterday and Andros was probably weakest link on the side and rather predictable.

Though I missed 1st 10 minutes, must've been quite marvel on those stages to get praise.

Buckoxx · Aug 30, 2013

Lloris

Walker ----- Dawson -----Vert -------Rose

Capoue

Dembele-----------Paulinho

Townsend--------------------------------------Chadli

Soldado

If we go 4-2-3-1 take off Dembele and put Holtby in the role behind the striker, deserved his go after last night.

Yea that was amazing. The only reason why I possibly prefer the 2-3 was because we got the 3 points, but the 4-4 certainly felt like a win still.

This would be the most probable team.......

Lloris

Walker Daws Verts Rose

Paulinho Capoue Dembele

Townsend Soldado Chadli

But im hoping that Kaboul is 100% now, even if he played last night........and the 3 players registered today so can be called upon
to play

Lloris

Walker Kaboul Verts Rose

Paulinho Capoue Dembele (Holtby/Eriksen)

Townsend Soldado Chadli

This would allow the team to play a more effective high line as 3 of the 4 at the back are speedster. Hotby or Eriksen to come in for Dembele, if Dembele not able to sustain the whole game. I think it is still too early to introduce all 3 of Lamela, Chiriches and Eriksen together during this game.

Well I agree with the first team, and I agree with the final point as well - it's definitely too early to play three players we haven't actually signed yet...

Chiriches a Done deal from OS.

Considering the fact that the former is an official pre-requisite to support Arse, it all sounds rather risky.
