As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
Reading that the cheapest ticket for this is £62. Form an orderly queue.
Anyway, matchday profits were up to more than £95m and we're awash with money.
The forehead cannot start in this one surely. If he does it shows wenger still doesn't believe in punishing mediocre performances.
If he does drop him, the next time he gets a chance in the team he'll know he'll have to perform. If he can't handle that kind of pressure then fuck off and take a pay cut.
Thing is, as much as The Forehead is erratic in front of goal, he's actually played pretty well in our last 4 or so games, including banging in 3 goals. He's also worked well down the wing with Jenko. I can see reasosns why Wenger wouldn't drop him even though I personally would.
I would also drop Gervinho...as much as he may have improved he is still not good enough. His poor touch and erratic thinking cost us the win at City. For me he is the one player I wouldn't want to have the chance he had in the first half.

I agree. But the manager's a moron and the Ivorian Tony Daley played in France. So he'll start. Because the more we say he's shit the more Mr Knows wants to prove what a 'genius' he is by proving us wrong...
the ox has had a bit of a slow start imo, i think feo is front of the queue after wednesday night
I'd start Walcott
he looked hungry on wednesday, hopefully he carries it through. if he wants 100k that badly he needs to start f##king showing that he is worth it consistently.
Theo also always plays well against Chelsea. He's one of the only players Cole has never really had a handle on due to a combo of raw pace and erratic touches! But he's always scored a few against them and done well and they really can't handle pace.

Agreed, this is the exact reason why feeeooo - feo has to start. He did look quite sharp on Wednesday too. But wenger knows an all that. We'll see.
Im not all that sold on Theo starting.... As you could see wednesday when he scored his first goal.. he was too busy making a statement when he was meant to be celebrating. Never expected that sort of a reaction from him. Giroud will be absolute class tomorrow, mark my words. Chelsea at home, Terry the racist twat and sideshow bob wont know what hit them.
