Yep
Its a first goal job, if we get the first we're in with a shout. If they get the first goal they'll sit deep and counter attack and probably get more knowing how naive we are at chasing a game.
Team is brimming with confidence following the CL fixture, but not having Jack out there will be a huge blow. His energy and work ethic have been a big help last few weeks.
Can Arsenal take this one? I wouldn't call it impossible, but tough considering the quality of the defensive midfield at Citeh (Barry, Yaya) and the speed upfront (Silva, Tevez, A. Johnson).
My early prediction - not a draw If Arsenal does take it however, I think that's a serious statement of "We're here to win the league".
Even though I can sometimes be perceived as being a little on the negative side, I think we will win this 3-1.
Citeh aren't playing that well despite their lge position, Chelsea should have beaten them, as should Blackpool.
I think if we can keep the gargoyle quiet and take our chances then we will win.

yeah and that counts for shit. they will never light the premier league on fire but they'll scrape plenty of wins against teams like us this year.
My fear is that Ade will do to our defence what Drogba always does!!! That's why I really, really hope he doesn't play. And I know that will involve some running, but I think the guy will be motivated enough against us to do it.

Point taken, but I still cannot believe you mentioned greedywhore and Dogbreath in the same sentence and neglected to use the words "fucking" and "cunts"!
