Bloody heck.. This could end up double figures tonight.

A look at the crazy goals for and against the Arse are putting down..

Arsenal 5 Palace 0
Arsenal 3 Liverpool 1
West Ham 0 Arsenal 6
Burnley 0 Arsenal 5
Arsenal 4 Newcastle 1
Sheffield UTD 0 Arsenal 5 41 mins


28 goals for 2 against and half of those was an own goal!!!

Bets on they absolutely pull their pants down for City at the end of the month.

Are you are saying that in hope more than expectation?

Expectation. They're basically City lite. They've got the style but lack the mettle in my opinion.
They bottled it last season after having truckloads of good fortune and I expect them to do the same this one.

As has been said many times before, no teams are going to do us any favours playing against our two closest rivals.

If Sheffield were playing were playing us, I bet you they'd be stuck right in trying to play for that point and giving it their best effort of the season to "win" their only cup by drawing against us or maybe even getting a sneaky smash-and-grab last minute win.

Against the likes of Arsenal and City they lay down like persian rugs, bend over with the lube and roll out the red carpet to their open goal.

We just have to take care of our business ourselves - especially this coming Sunday.

We pretty much have to win that now.
As much as a draw would have been okay before, it pretty much will be a gift to Arsenal with their goal difference and hand them the lead.

Beat City, and let the two of them beat the shit out of each other when they meet - or possibly even draw, which would be the best result for us.
And then avoid any banana skin matches in those remaining games..

The Manchester derby, for as woeful as United eventually were, did show that City are there to be had.
They've had a soft underbelly with that leaky defense, and as long as we actually show up early in the game for once and not think we can just come back from going down early as we've done so many times, we should be able to handle them

We play them next month. Didn't we struggle against them in early January or late December?
Agree with justme, they're mentally gone.
They are looking at one of the worst ever prem performances. Derby and Sunderland territory.

Arsenal beginning to fade towards half time there, only 5-0

[teesred]

Just had a look at their fixtures, they have a lot of big games. Chelsea,Spurs,BHA,Villa,City,Utd.
Obviously Chelsea and Utd should be a cakewalk for them but the others may be hard games.
City and LFC have some similar fixtures, villa,Spurs,BHA.
City have Newcastle too. Ours looks the best run in on paper. Obviously it not going to go to script and there'll be plenty of twists etc.

City v Newcastle is a cup game but every little helps.

6-0 the arse

You reckon Odegaard is gonna get his camera out again at the end of the game?

Certainly didn’t do them or him any harm last time - so I would rather he didn’t
