Once the gap is 11 points, we switch into top 4 no pressure mode.

I've said it before i think Danny suffers from lack of consistent game time and has done most of his career, i actually think there is a semi-decent footballer in there if he were given regular games, he'll never be world class but i honestly think he is better than the two muppets although probably less clinical than Olly can be :rubchin:

A bit harsh but I dont think anyone would be sorry to see him go. Regardless of whther you blame injuries, consistency or just pure ability, he has never delivered when it mattered. - though finds himself in excellent company in that regard. We need to sell him and Giroud in the summer, get in about 40million for the pair and buy a proven striker with that money. Welbeck and Iwobi look like they can make a real contribution in the future. They are at least more fun to watch than the aforementioned.

Agree, he does miss a few, and should have scored the equaliser against Watford. I like his work rate though. At least he puts in he effort like Campbell, Giroud rarely chases a ball down if it's more than5 metres away from him. Walcott jogs about doing very little.

Yeah, that and that Everton are total cack at home - only three teams have a worse record at home.

Do we have the mental strength and tenacity to see this game out? Will Wenger decide that with 15 minutes to go he will bring more defenders into an already shaky defence, and bring off our most effective players, thus handing the initiative to the opposition as usual?

DB10 & NutFlush can sort that one out for you. :lol:

I've given up hoping for a goal fest that would reduce our goal difference deficit.

40million for the pair!! From who exactly, who is that crazy?? We'll struggle to give them away. I cannot think of a club anywhere in the world who would pay Walcott 140k per week.

We dont really do goalfests. For that you need worldclass strikers - no. Or everyone playing on the same level - no.

Wenger has said publicly before he doesn't care about g/d. Love to see us lose the league because of that then hear what he has to say.

Oh alright, I'll take 5m for Giroud and Walcott as the free bonus.
