A half fit Kos will be patched up for 70 mins, for the last 20 it will be anyones guess.
Koscielny's fitness is secondary when it comes to a game Wenger dare not lose.

if pardew has any sense he'll set em up the same way as against the chavs - let us have 66% possession and then have tiote, ameobi and cisse hit us on the break.

with easy games for southampton, swansea, and west ham, the pressure is on us to win.

tha toon are pretty compact away from home - they've only lost twice away all season - to West Ham & stoke like...

they drew at swansea too and beat the scum away.

if wenger wins this he truly does have a guardian angel up there... :banghead:

I think we'll actually be OK in this game and over the festive period and The Dear Leader will be the cat that got the cream, until we get a hiding at the Etihad in January.

liverpool is 50/50 - you never know which side will turn up. my best guess is bore draw or another Alexis winner.

QPR is an absolute home banker - west ham, well we have not been great there when they were utter shite. now they are above us and managed by the great northern whale, who is another that has a hoodoo on wonga. they've just beaten newcastle and swansea, so i think west ham go 2-0 and keep it.

then just 3 days later away at Soton - looks another draw unless they are on a high/low from the chav game. though this time Schneiderlin will be fit - he's fit saturday.

sods law says wonga squeaks through personally, but based on form i think we only pick up 5-8 pts from 15 which is going to leave us well off 4th.

we are in the 6th/7th place mixer definitely rather than 3rd/4th this year.

West Ham is definitely going to be a struggle. They are playing some decent stuff, can see them causing us a lot of problems.

Can see that oaf Carrol bullying our defence :oops:

Kos definitely ruled out.

that leaves three choices for CB - Debuchy out of position and played 70mins in 3 months. 19 yr old Hayden, who hasn't trained, or 17 year old Stephen O'Connor with 20 mins first team experience.

you could defend wenger a little if the suspended players weren't also both being expected to play out of position, one in his first season and the other for the first time ever :banghead:

30 years in football, marvellous isn't eh...hmm...hmm...marvellous :oops:

Koscielny is a fucking disaster waiting to happen. He has clearly been rushed back. If he was fit last week he would have played against Stoke, if he wasn't fit he shouldn't have been involved but Wenger has left himself so fucking desperate. What are the odds that he'll have a recurrence and a minor injury will turn into a 3-4 month job?

Honestly, going into the season with one back-up centre-half, who happens to be a kid who has played a grand total of 0 games at CB in his life and is also vying for/covering right-back. Particularly shrewd as both of our centre-backs played well over 100 club and international games last season before travelling halfway round the world and spending a month at the World Cup - he will moan about that later in the season no doubt, as though he couldn't have been expected to foresee the risk.

Without Kos I think they'll score a couple. But I think we will too. 2 - 2. If both the Frenchman & Plodolski play we won't score.:barscarf: :barscarf:

1-2 Not that it matters as the reich will remain in place regardless of the outcome.
