If we take our chances we’ll go through. If we don’t we are out. Despite the tears on here about the Newcastle game, we were by the far the better side and had we taken our chances we would have been 4-2 up. Even those numpties claiming they toyed with us at 2-0 up. Well they didn’t stop us making chances did they? We just kept missing them.
That's exactly it, Limerick. We'll either thrash them 3 or 4 nil or we'll let them off the hook for them to nick it 1-0 near the end.

This is one of the worst sides they have assembled in many years, we should stuff them. My only worry Is that when we met them in December, we were aimless from open play. If we don't nick one from a corner today, it il be a long afternoon.

I just don’t see us getting a result here. Confidence is low, sickness and injuries, and these bunch of mugs we are up against seem to only pull out a performance against a top four side.

Plus, we’re in that ridiculous all white strip today, and I don’t think we’ve ever had a win while wearing it.

A week ago if you put a thousand Gooners in a room and offered them their choice of what premier league team you would want to be drawn at home to in 3rd round of fa cup, I would wager manu would have got a large percentage of votes - now because they played one good game against the victims and we were shite against the geordies, it seems that we are all worried about today's game :? Make no mistake, this is a shit manu team that we should be beating even without saka, and I would suggest that losing to them at home today would rank as one of our worst results in a long time. Yes I know we have glaring weaknesses in the team, but ffs have you looked at their team ? Every shit team in the country has been rolling them over before they played the victims, and honestly if the cone boy and his players feel confident enough to talk about themselves as title contenders, then swatting these c.unts aside should be expected. If they play their favoured 3-4-3 formation then we need to keep our wingers wide and get the ball to them early - that forces manu to either drop their wingers back to mark them, or push their centre backs out wide to mark them thus leaving one centre back on his own in the middle. This is not a game for odeargod to take a load of tippy tappy touches before releasing the ball, and if he starts doing that then he needs to be subbed

3-0 home win :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:

Typical Arsenal to draw the Cup holders at home in the 3rd round while all the other top sides hit cricket scores past League 2 dross.
I know it really Stumps me when it keeps happening. :D I just wish Saka was available to Bail us out....It seems to be the same thing every year we get the more difficult draws, it's driving me Batty. :D Wouldn't it be brilliant if we knock theseCunts for Six! :wink:
Over and over again….
Well we have to draw the line somewhere even if we're wide of the mark and after all this is about actual Cup.

The premier league player accused of rape stories have surfaced again with the policing sending the evidence file to the Crown Prosecution Service to decide the next steps.

May go somewhere, may not.......
If it is who we suspected, he should have been jettisoned to the desert league for him to be another clubs problem a long time ago!

Confidence is anything but low. That’s a hangover perception from the Wenger era anytime we get a series of bad results. We will be well up for this and if we take the chances we created against Newcastle, it’s not going to be close.

This Game is HUGE for both sides.

After their performance against the ScouseFilth they will be feeling very Buoyed (*) (Ooooh! Missus :oops: ) because like it or not they did play well. And if, IF they can turn us over on our own turf, considering until last week they have been Utter Shit all season, it will be perceived as them (Finally) Turning their Season Around and so for them this is a Golden Opportunity to not only do that, but take sweet revenge on an Old Enemy.

For us it is also MEGA Important to Win, even if it is a Hard Fought Victory; which if we are to Win I think it will be (*). Our form has suddenly taken a nose dive,.. well not so sudden as we haven't hit the heights of playing some of the excellent football we have in the past 2 seasons... our usually stable defence is looking well shaky, we don't have the option & attacking prowess that Saka brings, Martinelli is still in the toilet, Havertz has disappeared (perhaps because he is being played out of position :roll: ) AND of course we don't have a Proper Striker. On top of which it would also knock them back still further what with their owners thinking they have finally found the right manager for the job, another loss for Amorim will not go un-noticed by them.

the manckyCUNTS will definitely fancy their chances , Amorim has had another week to further implement his Tactics and his Systems of Play and Passing, so expect a very different approach from them.
Rednose Fucked Off..... But This really could go either way.

Can beat them Most Definitely, But that will depend on ALL our players turning up and playing their Best, also of course if PGMOL haven't put a large wad of cash on a Home :loss via a Red Card , a Penalty or a new Rule they have specially invented for this game.


Heart says narrow scrappy & hard fought Win
Head says Close My Eyes and fucking Pray.

keeps on about our wingers...would that be Martinelli who cant beat a man or the non performing trossard?

or we may be lucky and see ladyboy Sterling earning his £250K this week

Pointless signing. He's a sick note and not all that tbh.

Get rid next summer along with Zinchenko, Tomiyasu and play Lewis-Skelly or Timber there when White has returned from injury.

Along with Merino that's about 80 odd mill spunked up the wall on average.

The least clinical front 3 of any “top” team you’re likely to see ,

Havertz , Jesus , Martinelli

Fuck me here we go again.

Hope corner fc are at it again today

Did you put up a team a few mins ago with him starting ? Was he injured after team was announced or was your initial team line up wrong ?
