David Batty?

I could have sworn Barton was a DM?

Why not? His good work ethic, passing and technical are put to much better use there than on the wing.

Should be Given Carr Cacapa Taylor Roz Milner Barton Emre Zog Viduka Owen Going to go for a 2-1 win, Boro to fight bravely but us to just edge it.

I like Milner tbh and think he's a good player. He's just playing out of position, should be given a go in centre mid where he'll be of more value.

Hopefully Emre will make a difference when he comes back if he's actually used.

must have.

3-0 but Butt's just hit the bar.

The pessimism from some people on this board is fucking disgraceful, get behind your team ffs.

For Rozehnal?

Sounds like a better start! COME ON LADS!

Have a bit of belief at least..

Come on Newcastle.

1-0 Arsenal..

Seems as if we're playing a bit more defensively this time, am a little worried.

Nah, he's just come back on.

Hoping Barton will come on for Roz early in the second half.

Sounds like Duff just had a pop.

Mmm I'd say.. Given Beye Taylor Cacapa Enrique Milner Barton Emre N'Zogbia Viduka Martins

I've heard Leroy Lita of Reading wants out - he's strong, quick and scored a decent amount of goals last season. Worth a punt?

Yeah that's probably where I was sitting was in the family enclosure to the left of you guys looking miserable

Just got back from the game, had to sit with the Gooners unfortunately who were pretty obnoxious but was still an enjoyable game. First half performance was great - Duff in particular looked good but then the wheels just fell off in the second half. Something to build upon at least.

To be fair, the team that Arsenal had out at the end of the game wasn't at all far off their best. Only Clichy, Rosicky, Flamini and Toure missing I think.

5-1, caps off a great game. Deserved thrashing.

The reaction from Lee deserved a follow up boot in the jaw. Little fuking baby. Arsenal are no better, if anything it serves them right.
