Go to the ticket office with your ID and ticket and they’ll sort a seat out in one of the corp or hospitality suites for you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 It's only defensive if we sit in. Quite a few sides play with a back threw. I'd imagine one of Trippier or Hall will be asked to step into midfield to make up the numbers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginola Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Not sure I'm a fan of 5atb, but Hall can push into midfield for a 433 if needed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 5 minutes ago, Nobody said: Trippier The likes of Trossard and Martinelli should be okay for him I think. The Arsenal build up is so slow so they won't be running at him in space. He also won't have to deal with a bunch of crosses and having to pick up a more physical player at the back post. Think it should be alright. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Trippier is there because his arse doesn't cave in on the ball when we're under pressure, unlike Tino at times this season His pace is a concern though for sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibierski Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Quite impressive as well that we have got 5 at the back, and the defence has become even slower than if we played 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
