Which part do you not agree with?

 

[DCSPUR]

starting to feel that familiar nervousness that comes up twice a season...

 

[Geyzer Soze]

Which part do you not agree with?

Poluting our players with those scum presumably

 

[Hazardousman]

Which part do you not agree with?

The part where I have to visibly see Arsenal players next to ours, it's like drinking milk that's a week old and has been left out in sunlight.

Not being expecting to win the game might suit us, because whenever we get talked up we seem to crumble where as when we go under the radar we seem to play well. I remember after we beat Stoke 4 - 0 last season everyone talking us up and then we crashed under the level of expectation and I feel the same happened after we beat City this year. We have a young team that I feel is still mentally weak in some aspects. Hopefully we can use the tag of underdogs for tomorrows game to our advantage.

Can't lie. Not feeling optimistic. Not just because we're wobbling, but because I've been saying for weeks that I think Arsenal are serious business this year.

Don't believe the hype. They have had an incredible amount of luck this season. Leicester should of had a last minute penalty, against Southampton they shouldn't have had the 94th minute penalty they did get. They sit high on the form table for sure but Chelsea aside they haven't played anyone of note that you wouldn't expect them to thrash anyway.

I'm glad Poch referenced the fact its not just the fact we are missing chances, its the fact we aren't creating enough full stop. Hopefully they've had it drummed into them this week that we need to be more incisive with our play. They aren't invincible!

Like most other teams in red ('Boro, Stoke, Sunderland, Southampton), we should batter this team into oblivion.

 

[nightgoat]

In relation to them "flying", this is true but seriously look at their opposition in the last few weeks. They've beaten Burnley with a last minute, handball, undeserved winner, they got battered by Middlesborough, they scraped through against Swansea, they beat Sunderland who are the worst team in the history of the league and twice beaten the champions of Bulgaria who are absolute tripe. The Chelsea result was fantastic to be fair but that was still when Chelsea were a mess.

This. They only beat Burnley with an offside handball where the ref played on until Arsenal scored. Cech should have been off against Sunderland, and at 1-1 with ten men you can't say they definitely would have gone on to win. It's like how people were giving Man City the title after only five games yet ignoring that four of their wins were against (at the time) the bottom four teams in the league. Since then they've won two in nine.

If anyone needs it, I'm here for counseling after the match

 

[yankspurs]

Whoa. Dembele's gonna start?
Lloris; Walker, CCV, Vertonghen, Rose; Dembele, Wanyama, Winks; Son, Kane, N'Koudou

If I see that lineup, i am throwing down a grand on Spurs before kickoff.

 

[Mustard]

I'm quite stressed over this game.

As always.

I think we will lose. As always

But I did dream we will win 3-1

I hate these games.

 

[ghjk_91]

In full Keegan mode - I'd love it if we beat them.

 

[yankspurs]

I hate these games.

I went in big on us in this game, and will probably go bigger. So we will lose for sure

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

Whoa. Dembele's gonna start?
Lloris; Walker, CCV, Vertonghen, Rose; Dembele, Wanyama, Winks; Son, Kane, N'Koudou

If I see that lineup, i am throwing down a grand on Spurs before kickoff.

That line-up? You got more chance of getting a whale up your arse

 

[dynamoSpurs]

Might reverse funk HARD on Assnil

 

[Everlasting Seconds]

That line-up? You got more chance of getting a whale up your arse

Oh, so it will be that line up then.
