Rayvin 5459 Posted Saturday at 19:24 Share Posted Saturday at 19:24 So how should we play this over two legs then? Same as usual for both, or try to be more conservative in game 1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're using WW2 inspired metaphors, how about you think of your avatar and get into the spirit of the Guns of Navarone?  I find the fact you’ve used a Vietnam War gif here physically painful.  Anyway, I tend to agree with HMHM about this.     5-0 to us, 10 on aggregate  4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 22241 Posted Saturday at 20:27 Share Posted Saturday at 20:27 Do what we did 2 years ago in the league at this time of year, the time Arteta's lwgo top head blew off. With Botman back we've got nearly all that team and some extras. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toonotl 3230 Posted Sunday at 07:45 Share Posted Sunday at 07:45 I think we'd all be thrilled if we can hold them to a draw. We can beat them at home for sure.  HMHM makes a good point though. Three away games on the bounce is a tough ask. We've looked increasibgly leggy the last two second halves too.  Biggest test of the season for us so far. I'll go 1-1. The players will be desperate to earn our place in another cup final. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonpack 10276 Posted Sunday at 08:10 Share Posted Sunday at 08:10 No Bruno is massive, be interesting to see what Eddie does, suspect it'll be Longstaff to try and button them up, but we'll be severely limited going forward. Â A one goal deficit for second leg would be ok, but any more than that will leave us the proverbial mountain to climb. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 6859 Posted Sunday at 08:26 Share Posted Sunday at 08:26 (edited) Yeah. I think Longstaff will get the nod. Â im also not sure Botman can play two games in 4 days so we might see Kelly start? Edited Sunday at 08:26 by Holden McGroin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fabs is back, he only had a one game suspension for too many yellows in the league - means fuck all in regard to the cup.  @Howmanheyman just needs to get his hiney back to work on Tuesday night and stop pissing his pants, we've got Gloomy and CT for that sort of behaviour. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly will be fine next to BDB, he's a cooler head than Schar is. Â btw I still think ciaoman needs to be working that night.

Anything within two goals of them for the Second Leg and I'd give us a chance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut 235 Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago If Longstaff's in, I'd love to see Tonali being given a bit more freedom. Now he's playing with confidence I think he could fill in the Bruno role comfortably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonBlue 818 Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago  i know we're competing for champions league places, but i'd prefer you lot win this one. primarily because it hurts arsenals title bid.  it's a tricky quandary. i hate liverpool. i hate their fans a lot more than i hate the club mind. i don't like arsenal but i really can't stand arteta. slott i don't mind (yet).  it would be quite funny re klopps reputation if slott won the league with basically the same squad.  it would be quite funny to see arteta continue on his meltdown.  so my hopes are with you guys for this one. and city will just have to make up the ground another day. if we have it in us this season.  ideally you'll win it with something really controversial too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
