Rest every single player due to play in Greece (apart from Martinelli who obviously needs to be rested for both games)

12 of these dead rubbers left before the season ends. An ideal chance to play the kids who will replace the mongs like Elneny and Xhaka next season.

Of course, that's fanciful thinking on my part. I fully expect Swampy to return at right back, and Xhaka of course will play both here and in Greece because he always does

Lose 2-0, win 5-0......in the words of the Catherine Tate character - "am I bovvered though?"

I still maintain that finishing as high up in the league this season as possible is priority to take some momentum into next season.
Whilst a top 4 finish is now starting to look doubtful, a top six finish remains realistic if we keep winning.

100% Rob, our final lge position is more important than chasing an unlikely cup win.

Wasn’t there some poster on here that got ridiculed for saying some European game was more important than a Man United match - and then we lost 8-2!

To be honest Arteta can play who he likes tomorrow, but looking ahead he better play our strongest team against Spurs next Sunday - and if that means resting some players on Thursday night then so be it.

That was dear old Red Member of course...........and I think the reason he got caned was for saying that the 8-2 defeat was "irrelevant"! Back then we were top 4 regulars, now we're mid-table dross. From memory that game was even before the transfer window closed so around 3 or 4 games into the season, whilst we're now 26 games in and destined to finish between 8th and 12th. As I've said before, the new Everton !

I'm sure he will rest players for this one ,I don't mind it in principal but we must kill the spuds above anything .
Apart from winning last week against the firkin foxes what pleased me was that we had a plan we deliberately attacked their weakest point something we rarely do .
tic tacs work if you apply them but as we know under wenger we just huffed n puffed and hoped to blow the house down .
From a purely financial point though Europe is vital so stuffing the bubbles is important although I cant see us winning the whole thing !

ABSO FUCKIN- LUTELY! Above all else....


Be an added Bonus if we can rip the Filth a new one and see Maureen throw his players under the bus (again).

Chambers starts for Arsenal. Saka, Auba and Partey also come in.

[SteveO 35]

Good to see Martinelli rested again

[rodders999]

Hopefully we see a good showing from Chambers today so we can get an extra million from Palace for him in the summer

And hopefully does so well that Swampy becomes third choice right back behind him and Cedric !

OHHH! What a fuckin' surprise to see Martinelli not in the starting line-up. and Clubfoot and side-show still starting...

[rodders999]

BT reporter interviewing Dyche asks him about “rattling” Arsenal.

When do you ever hear that being said about any other fucking team?

City are blowing everyone away this season but you’ll never hear someone suggest you should go out and “rattle” them same with the victims last year when they won the league at a canter, nobody would dare suggest to kick them off the pitch to stop them.

But that has been the default stance against Arsenal for years now and it’s fucking disgusting.

FUCK OFF

[augie]

Smith-Rowe injured ?

For the life of me I cannot understand how this spanish fool is clearly sending out a message of "I'm rotating", but still is not giving martinelli any game time much less any starts Last week in the papers he said that martinelli is getting frustrated with his lack of game time - who could fcuking blame him ? Every other player on that bench (bar the keeper) has had game time and starts recently, but yet some people are stupid enough to think that arteta wouldnt sell martinelli

I know that arteta's treatment of some of our younger players is going to bite us in the arse in the next few years to the point that we will actually be ok with the sale and treatment of gnarby - of course by that time arteta will have been sussed out and gone out of the club and will be gone back to spain to coach sociedad or valencia or some insignificant team, but the harm will already be done

[augie]

The stupid c.unt has just said that his starting line up is reflecting that he needs to rotate cos we have 4 games in the next 9 days and that everyone will be involved - anyone actually believe that the phrase "everyone" does include martinelli ??

I've resigned myself to the fact that Martinelli, Saliba and Balogun are all leaving. Wouldn't be surprised to see ESR become a fringe player next season too

True.. and what really pisses me off is that the chav pensioner has been brought on time after time and played (not) utter-shyte except for last week and then what happens oh fuckinn surprise he starts the chavCunt...whilst Martinelli is literally ROTTING ON THE TOUCH-LINE - It fuckkin Stinks to high heaven.

The more this season goes on the less and less I think Arteta is the manager we need.

[rodders999]

Balogun is 100% gone, off to Germany for the mega bucks.

[rodders999]

Auba’s shit mate
