Coventry

[Henry Norris 1913]

Look out for my dad, he will be the one with the half and half scarf

typical modern fan

[augie]

funnily enough, i think he'll play an unintentionally stronger side going forwards - pod and gnabry up front, mid of rosicky, caz, ramsey and arteta.

he'll rotate in TV - the only risk will be in switching in Jenko and Flappy.

3-0 us. pod 2, gnabs 1.

I thought that tv5, arteta and ramsey have all been ruled out by wenger already ?

[corkbarry]

This reminds me of 1987,Coventrys Cup,no one will stop them

[clockender1]

Ramsey was on the bench today, I saw him.

[markyp]

im not usually an optimist when it comes to Arsenal but I fancy us to tear coventry a new one,Podolski must start,let him loose Arsole !15-0!!!!!

[Top Londoner]

1-0, 87th minute. KALOU

FACT

[Midz]

We should tear them a new one regardless of who he rests.

[Gunner Rob]

If AW cocks this up by playing a weak side I will hold my breath until I'm sick or something......

I want us to win the FA Cup but....he must play a weakened side v this lot.

they are not even a championship team. we dont need to beat them 6-0 , a 2-0 win will be fine as long as we then have all our top players fresh to beat Southampton next week.

Southampton away is a MUST win game. Coventry is a WILL win game whoever we put in the team

[The Knowing One]

Comfortable win whoever plays, it will be the next round which is sandwiched between Utd home and Bayern Home, that we'll see a seriously weakened side, we can only hope we get away with a reasonably easy home tie, as 'There's Only One' will never jepordise even bench players for the FA Cup against the Holy Grail that is the Champions League, depressingly the Quarter Final of the FA Cup (should we make it) is the weekend before the return leg in Munich so unless we get absolutely hammered by Bayern in the first leg expect another weakened side.

[stevefox7]

This is an Ideal game at an Ideal time. We have 5-6 players who need game time these players could be very Important in our run in. Players like Podolski, Oxlade Chamberlain, Vermaelen, Jenkinson, Bendtner could yet be called upon to play 4-5 games in a row if we suffer from a couple of Injury's.

Predict another 2-0.

[bergkamp10]

1-0, 87th minute. KALOU

FACT

2-0 after 75 useless mins before the BIG GUNS come on!!!

[DB10GOONER]

Sorry Barry - but I can see this one being double figures!

10-1 to The Arsenal.

The Coventry goal will come from Flappy spilling one into his own net.

[Dan_85]

12-12, replay in Northampton.

[singwordssosad]

Gnabry to score and create one. be good to see Tom lead the side too. COYG

[QuartzGooner]

Like to see Gibbs, Ozil and Cazorla completely rested, but keep a strong bench if needed.
Otherwise like to see mix of youngsters, and players returning from injury who need game time.
Ideal game to give Zelalem a debut?
Not sure all of those returnees are ready for 90 minutes though, so hope to see Ramsey and Oxlade-Chamberlain come off the bench and get as much playing time as their injury progress permits?
