Worried about the 4 attackers starting for Arsenal, might be a backs to the wall type performance needed. 

Aye, their team looks very strong. I fancied us for 3 points before I saw the lineups.

Disappointing Sandro hasn't started, but it'll be a fitness thing after a year out and 3 games in 6 days imo.

 

Glad to see we're sticking with big Joe on the left linking with his little brother. We know this team and lineup can work well with our old pressing selves. Still think we get something here, 2-1 imo

Would have preferred Tonali in there obviously, can only assume he's not 100% because we've got over a week before the next game. Burn presumably in there to counter the set-piece threat but thought Kelly had done enough to get the nod.

 

Like Willock/Joelinton on the left though.

 

Feel the same, and I'm gutted for Krafth, because I thought he was outstanding on Wednesday, Livramento has been very average this season.

 

The only player you'd have taken caution with would have been Willock, as he's had the most injuries and missed nearly as much game time as Tonali, yet Willock starts, therefore for me it's not a fitness thing for many, it's just what the manager wants to go with.

Are we even playing today?  Not sure they've even mentioned us in the build up to the game yet, good to hear from the impartial Martin Keown and Ugo Monye though

Monye he's a rugby lad isn't he?

We tried to press arsenal at the Emirates and they bypassed us with ease. And we're cutting us open. 


We also played a similar (ish) lineup in this fixture last season and it was a very close game, not many chances for either side and we won 1-0. 
 

Does that have less or more bearing on today’s game and setup?

Keown doesn’t get enough hate imo. Absolute tosser that thinks he’s some sort of footballing intellectual.

He is. Compared to the other chimps in the PG Tips advert.

100%. On there trying to flog his book n'all, shocked he even has the capacity to write one.  Can't be many sporting books that'll be worse to read than that :lol:

It’s UK accent bias, for sure. He sounds posh-ish but is thick as mince. Horrible bastard.
