I don't care who we put out, I hope we go and embarrass that wannabe mickey mouse club. Now I just gotta find that game televised here locally...

I think we'll get done but not a hammering, the stiffs are gonna fight like hell to stake a claim in the 1st team so i'm expecting a decent performance from them and I think we'll go down fighting and only get done 2-1. Still not good though is it? :(

tottenham to play their full first 11, win 4-0, picking up no injuries or cards, and then going on to win their next league game with seemingly no ill effects at all.

Shouldn't the title of the thread contain the word shithole rather than swamp??

Who's died? I would hope we show our class. Would be very disappointed to hear any boos/whistles...

We have got 1st team squad players that NEED games - Djourou, Denilson, Vela and maybe Rosicky. Don't think Arsene will go further though, so I expect we will see Nordtveit, Miquel, Lansbury, Randall, JET, maybe Cruise.

I don't mind - attitiude is more important than personnnel. Even if the Boss doesn't care, whoever is picked has to remember who we are playing, wear the shirt with pride and fight to the last whistle.
