Everton V Arsenal PL

WillieCocker · 15-08-2009 3:24pm #1

Well here we go, our first game kicks off against Everton on ESPN HD.
Predictions......i would like to say 3-0 to the Arsenal.
My head tells me 2-1.

Hope the lineup is like this

Vokes · 15-08-2009 3:27pm

Everton 3 - 2 Arsenal I reckon. A double each from Cahill and Arshavin. The winner from Pienaar.

Wreck · 15-08-2009 4:21pm

Arteta out is a big blow for Everton, gives me a bit more hope that Arsenal will nick it. Going for 2-1 Arsenal.

anybody watching this on ESPN HD

any good,better or the same as sky sports HD

RasTa · 15-08-2009 5:29pm

Here is to a high scoring game with Arsenal winning it for €€€ reasons. Got €50 on a Stoke Arsenal double @ 3/1

Well it's all been upscaled so far.
Have to wait for kick off to see the match cam.

DenMan · 15-08-2009 5:31pm

Come on the Gunners.

Here we go!!!

Bobalicious93 · 15-08-2009 5:32pm

I'll say 2-1 Arsenal. Arshavin and a Neville own goal. Cahill for Everton

WillieCocker · 15-08-2009 5:33pm

Match cam on now.
It looks slightly softer than Sky Sports HD but also less noise.
Looks very good.:cool:

Xavi6 · 15-08-2009 5:37pm

Did I just hear right? TEN GRAND was spent on Bendtner shirts?! He must have a mssive family.

Those numbers are expensive......

wandatowell · 15-08-2009 5:40pm

Heart is thinking 3-1 to Arsenal

but it looks like a 1-1 draw to me

Xavi6 · 15-08-2009 5:41pm

What's the story behind this number 52 lark anyway? Seems a very random number to pick.

EDIT: Here we are -

Bendtner explains switch of squad number

Arsenal centre forward Nicklas Bendtner has changed his squad number for the new season.

The Dane caught up with Arsenal.com to explain why he decided on the switch and give a personal offer to fans who had bought his shirt through Club outlets this summer.

“The new season’s almost here, and along with the rest of the players I’m really excited and believe it can be a really special one for everyone associated with the Club." said Bendtner.

"Before it starts I wanted to change my squad number from 26 which I’ve obviously had for a number of seasons now. I chose to move to 52 because it’s a special number to me personally, and I hope that it brings me good luck for the new season.

"I appreciate that a good number of fans have bought their kits for 2009/10 already with names and numbers printed up so I’d like to personally cover the cost of replacing anyone’s shirt that has my previous number. It means a lot to see supporters wearing your name and number, and I want to ensure people aren’t inconvenienced by the change."

* The offer is valid for supporters that purchased the Arsenal home, away or third shirt from a Club shop or online via Arsenal Home Shopping since June 2009. Any supporter wanting to upgrade their shirt that features Nicklas’ previous squad number must show proof of purchase in store.

Looks shite anyway

WillieCocker · 15-08-2009 5:42pm

Vermaelen looks eager!!!

It's double his old number, 26.
I'm convinced he hopes it will double his tally.

Bobalicious93 · 15-08-2009 5:47pm

Is it just me or does the Everton kit actually not look that bad anymore?

No it doesn't, but the away one is awful.

Wonder how many he's had to replace, I gather that Arsenal fans are not overly fond of him.

wandatowell · 15-08-2009 5:50pm

Anything of of interest happen so far wreck??????

WillieCocker · 15-08-2009 5:51pm

Arsenal look a bit nervous all of a sudden.

Ten grand would mean around 200 or so. Not exactly a shocking amount.

ShoulderChip · 15-08-2009 5:59pm

Fuzzy_Dunlop · 15-08-2009 6:02pm

Denilson! Always loved that guy, knew he was our most effective player:P

Souless · 15-08-2009 6:02pm

Vermaelen seems to be doing well.

Frisbee · 15-08-2009 6:08pm

Got it

Bobalicious93 · 15-08-2009 6:10pm

Arshavin is pure class.

WillieCocker · 15-08-2009 6:11pm

Vermaelen is winning a huge amount of his challenges.
Looks like another gem from Wenger.

Bobalicious93 · 15-08-2009 6:11pm
