PALACE AWAY THREAD

[augie]

Been on holiday lads and only just got back. How many of the virtual new signings are starting today?

Benzema's virtual medical going ok ?

It's virtually finished

[OneBardGooner]

Anyone know of any decent streams for this?

[aw]

Arsenal starting XI - Cech, Bellerin, Koscielny, BFG, Monreal, Coquelin, Ramsey, Cazorla, Ozil, Sanchez, Giroud.

Subs - Ospina, Debuchy, Gibbs, Gabriel, Arteta, Walcott, The Ox

[SteveO 35]

So the best player from last week by a mile i.e. the Ox, is the fall guy again as a woefully unfit Alexis comes back in and no doubt we have Ramsey shoved out wide in the paceless midfield.

[SteveO 35]

The chase for the Calendar Year trophy starts today chaps. I'm increasingly worried that moneybags Leicester City could end up denying us the opportunity to sing "We've got our trophy back" on 31st Dec if they carry on their present form so there's no margin for error today

Only the second game in and the twat is already under pressure and so desperate that he's starting an exhausted Sanchez. Hilarious.
Ox was the best player last week, but perhaps he didn't show enough "qualiteee" at RIGHT BACK

Love the comment Jose made about Wenker today. All for it. The journos won't ever confront his ineptitude so someone has to expose it...

WTF!?

The Ox benched - and no Theo - and yet that lampost Giroud gets to keep his position (literally) standing still (and missing) in front of goal.

FFS wenker you clueless twonk WAKE UP and fuckk off.

We'll all be eating our words when we scrape victory against oil rich Palace today and launch our assault on the VT once more. Unbeaten from here until 19th Sept

[g88ner]

Another season and still no balance.

We've got both of our right midfield options fit and available (Chamberlain and Theo) but yet again we're trying to shoehorn as many central midfielders into the team.

Theo, fresh from his new £140k a week contract, can't get in the side ahead of the Ox or even a central midfielder. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't pick Theo either, but that's the folly of the new contract for a guy who can't get a game on the right and 8 or 9 years of evidence tells you Wenger doesn't see him as a lone striker regardless of what he tells the media.

It's ridiculous. It will probably be enough to get us a result today but is it really too much to ask that the manager assembles a balanced team with natural width and players played in positions that suit them?

Bonkers.

Still, 3pts please!

LOL. Mucho a handbrake will be getting stroked after a scraped fortuitous victory. May even parade the virtual Benzema at HT

This doesn't sound like you? It's ok if we lose today anyway, as the transfer window still isn't closed yet - am I right?

It is a disgrace that he dropped the ox but it is ridiculous that he cannot (still) see that playing players out of position (like he continues to do with ozil and ramsey) does not work - the tactically inept fool continues to show that nothing has or nothing will change with him in charge, and buying top players wont matter as long as le cock is dictating team selection and (non existent) tactics

[augie]

We might be ok today cos I have just seen the palace team and they have picked wickham to play up front - how the mackems got £9m for him I will never know

[LeftfootlegendGooner]

I would put theo on the wing in this and yes the ox should start too.

We need pace and those two have it in abundance.

You are taking goals put of the team if theo doesn't play and i dont care what anyone's thoughts on here are about theos limitations but he brings goals and pace and thats what we lack.

Come on ARSENAL please beat this team managed by an absolute cuuuunt
