TheMoog 0 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Going by recent results I get the feeling they're having a late resurgence while we're still having a bit of a wobble. With it being away from home as well I've got the feeling we'll struggle to get owt from this match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tooner 243 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 arsenal have been schizo all season, 2-2 Ba and raylor, RVP to score but later succumb to injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 10972 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 As has been said, their defence is occasionally spastic and if HBA starts he would have a field day against Gibbs imo I like Vermaelen and Koscielny but the latter can be a little unpredictable and I'd fancy Cisse and Ba to give them problems. Szszszssezzzzeny can be class and he can be utter utter shit. I don't think we'll keep RVP quiet and can see Walcott cause our fullbacks problems. There's goals in this, and I genuinely don't have a clue which way it'll go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4843 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 This is the game where we rip someone a new one. A historicish sort of 4-1 to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Besty 4 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Walcott went off injured on Tuesday and Ox-Chamb looked unfit in the second half, hopefully they miss our game, the less pace vs our defence the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call me a cynic but I reckon they'll pass their fitness tests at the last minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With it being away from home as well I've got the feeling we'll struggle to get owt from this match. I agree, I don't think we'll get anything. Which is a shame as we've thrown away 4 points in the last 2 matches to lesser teams and we could do with a result Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Manson 0 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 A draw would be a great result considering the amount of goals they're scoring at the moment! Sagna coming back has made a big difference to their defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Looking forward to the game for some reason. This board could do with it too; all that's been talked about recently is the same old circular, tedious arguments that put people off this board, or mocking Sunderland.

StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Would preferably go with a 4-3-3/4-5-1 with Ben Arfa coming in for Cisse and Guthrie in for Taylor as I think if we line up 4-4-2 we could have another Tottenham performance on our hands.

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 We've played 442 against better opposition this season and done alright, so why the pessimism? The tactics definitely didn't help against Spiurs but on that day they were just on fire and would have beaten anyone especially after going 2 up so early on.

Because for the past few games our centre mid has been pretty anonymous for getting on the ball and passing it on, its mostly consisted of either getting the ball to Jonas or completely by passing the midfield by hitting it long to Ba/Cisse, this way we'll be more able to match up Arsenals midfield as they'll try and make the pitch as big as possible using their wide players. Plus we need to adapt our game instead of haing plan A as 4-4-2 and plan B as bringing Ben Arfa on when things arent going to good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEADMAN 0 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 not looking forward to this match i thought the mackem match was bad this is worse ill go for 3-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogerbarton 24 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 If Van Persie goes off in the first five minutes we might get something. Walcott and Oxlade-Chamberlain are going to be a nightmare for our defence. We've struggled against pace all season. Not at all convinced by our defence at the moment. That said, I'm not entirely convinced by Arsenal's defence either. We might be best having a go at them with Ben Arfa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't remember him doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
