Anyone looking at backing Arsenal for top 4 should double up on those odds, as the first can’t happen without the second. Smaller stake at bigger odds e.g. £10 double returns (14 * 8 / 1) £1120.
Or save yourself an tenner as it’s not gonna happen ?

Here's the squad that drew 1-1 with Wolves. Now missing Gilmore because of injury.


This week's injured/missing players

RULED OUT: Josh Sargent (ankle), Kenny McLean (foot), Adam Idah (knee), Ozan Kabak (hamstring), Andrew Omobamidele (back), Christoph Zimmermann (groin) Billy Gilmour (ankle)

MIGHT PLAY: Ben Gibson (back)

Hold the line nervy nellys
Not sure Gilmour out is necessarily a good thing. The Norwich fans seem to unanimously despise him and the only reason he gets games at the moment is due to a clause in his contract which means Norwich get a payout from Chelsea based on appearances.

Just FYI, bookies generally don’t permit ‘related contingency’ bets

There are so many reasons why we will be in the CL next season.

Kane
Conte
New Players (who will only come to clubs with CL)
Money
Spurs mixing it with the best sides in the world
Boasting rights

You honestly believe that our players under the management of Conte are going to throw all that away in 90 minutes?

When we lost 5-1 to Newcastle we didn't have anything else to play for as we had already qualified for CL, and Chelsea had already burst our bubble, ensuring Leicester won the PL. The players were no longer motivated.

I understand the pessimism and fear about this match but it is unwarranted. We are going to win, end of. Stop beating yourselves and enjoy the ride!

I was completely confident up until this sickness news. I mean, it never happens to anyone else but us. Why can’t we just have a normal build up before a big game. When anything untoward happens before a match we always seem to make such a meal of things.

If there is any club that can fuck this up from here it is us. So many bad memories of us and Arsenal going down to the final day to decide who finishes higher:

1996 - Bergkamp and Platt in the final few minutes to nick a UEFA Cup spot off us when we drew at Newcastle
2006 - Lasagnegate
2010 - Throwing away a 2-0 lead at Burnley after hearing they were winning
2012 - Marton Fulop
2013 - Newcastle and the ghost goal
2016 - Lost 5-1 against 10 man Newcastle when a draw was enough

Don't remember any final days against Arsenal ever going in our favour apart from last season when we had that late rally to come back and beat Leicester - arguably they were the ones to benefit as we had to play in the Conference League that nobody cared about whereas they got proper rests between all of their games this season.

"Previously, Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham clashes were not set to be broadcasted, despite the stakes on the table. But, with Sky Sports' Soccer Special, fans will be able to watch the goals from the other seven games on Sky Sports News as they happen"

Better than nothing for us deprived UK based fans.
Come on Sonny score a few so we can watch.

Be surprised if you can mix those two up.

The double is much better value then Arsenal Top 4 straight up, on Sky Bet at least (the charlatans).

Arsenal top 4 is 10/1
Norwich (12/1) and Arsenal (1/3) double is 16.33/1.

Turning out to be the biggest game of our season; who would have thought.

I think we will win this game in emphatic fashion.

Son might even score a hat-trick.

Wasn't there one final day under Emre where Arsenal had to beat our result on the final day and they lost while we drew?

Just looked it up and we drew with Everton while they lost at home to Brighton when a win would've got them CL.

Go out and get the first goal and the game will be in our hands..... the only way we could f*** this up or turn it into a drama, is by giving them an easy opening goal or some stupid mistake or red card... be focused and fired up from minute 1 until the end... and we will get the job done. I have no doubt... and with Conte in charge I'm certain we won't underestimate Norwich... be disciplined, work hard and show hunger.

There is absolutely no way our coach and our players would fuck this up. I would have some reservations if at all, if we needed to win but we need to draw. The mindset has to be right and will be right. I dont think going out for a draw is the right mindset as that puts your mind inbetween two stalls and fucks things up - thats why i think we will be too strong.

They will be up for it, make no mistake but so will our players and fans and Conte.

Yes... we need to be fired up and go for it... but we also need cool heads. No stupid actions.

My worry is we lose that edge to go the extra meter because a draw is on. Having to win you need to take chances and they often pay off. Being secure for a draw may see us turn off and play to contain them, which is dangerous. I don't want see it 0-0 in the 80th minute. You are right an early goal will help. Off the blocks and get into the game form the off.

Look, the game will be won. I have absolutely no doubts about it.

I just want us to do it with Sonny topping it all off by winning what Conte calls "the golden foot" (that's sticking now ?)

The guy really does deserve it!
