Eduardo



Diaby is easily interchangeable with both Ramsey and Rosicky. I'd prefer to see either of them get a game ahead of him but I reckon he'll get the nod.

This will be four or five nil to Arse, imo.

Frisbee

I'm gonna say 2-1 Arsenal, maybe even a draw.

No Arshavin, RVP, Denilson or Almunia, all of whom have been mainstays this season.

SlickRic

0-2 arse for me.

is steven defour playing? i'd like to see how he does if he is.

Royale with Cheese

No Defour broke his foot in Liege's last league game.

I'd reckon 2-0 or 2-1 to Arse, but a draw wouldn't surprise me.

keano_afc

We should win, but I'm not 100% confident. Defour is a big loss for them.

2-1 to the Gunners.

Daemos

Live tonight on Setanta Ireland (Sky Sports Xtra?) at 7.45pm

Arsenal are without alot of big names, in cluding Almunia, Van Persie, Denilson, Arshavin, Nasri, Walcott, Djourou and Fabianski, with third-choice keeper Mannone likely to start.

Liege are missing the injured Defour, as well as Dalmat. Witsel is likely to return to the squad after a long suspension.

I could see Liege sneaking a draw tonight, maybe even a win if their fans get behind them and the Arsenal players get dis-heartened, which given their recent run of bad luck is very possible.

Nah, Id be very surprised if we didn't win by at least 3 goals

Redzer7

Going for a 2-0 maybe 2-1 win for Arsenal tonight, can't wait for the match .

Kirnsy

4 -1 . we never keep a bloody clean sheet.


hopefully im proved wrong and vito does the job..

Fuzzy_Dunlop

Rosicky starts I'm led to believe. Full lineup in a few minutes I'd imagine

[edit]


Happy with that team. Think we're gonna win this.

Smegball

Bendter to shine tonight I think.

2-0 Arsenal.

Arsenal 7/2 to win at present, doesn't seem very generous.

Redzer7

Really Bad Arsenal :mad:.

Guy:Incognito

Yep he did mess it up alright.

Lou Macari is the harbinger of doom!!

Arsenal are are joke of a club, it happens everytime a big club beats them they lose all their confidence and play crap for 10 games, lucky they have some easy games in the league coming up.Jose Mourinho was right when he said Arsene Wenger is the only manager of a big club that does not need to win things, lets see what happens when they miss out on a top 4 place.

Beau x1

decent stream anyone?

Bounty Hunter

pg2 of the streams sticky iirc contains em

Didn't take long for the wheels to come off at Arsenal I see. What is it about this crop of players that makes them so mentally fragile?

Des puts too much pressure on them with his high expectations

It's quite possible, but tell me. He's not an Arsenal fan.

I don't support Arsenal, having said that, don't think they will.

Redzer7

Yesss.

Paleface

That was great time to score. COME ON!!!!!

Quazzie

About fûcking time. Bendtner ya beaut. 2-1

That_Guy

There's some hope for ye yet.

Beau x1

YESSSS. ARSENAL FAN 'FO LIFE.

Mossy Monk

Absolutely awful first half from Arsenal. What on earth was Eduardo thinking of. A good goal by Bendtner though. Wenger needs to keep him off the wing.

Vampireskiss wrote: »

I do not see what their top 4 status has to do with the Champions League.

WillieCocker

Bendtner, lovely goal.
We can win this, nerves seems to be ruining their play.

Beau x1

Despite how ecstatic I am with the goal before half time, I really think we should have made at least one more signing before the transfer window closed.

Still, that's what being an Arsenal fan is all about these days..faith in our manager.

We're definitely not out of it, though. However, I could have seen us struggling to get anything out of the game if we hadn't gotten that goal.

But that's the risk you run when you ask a striker to play out wide and at times puts him in defensive positions.
It was a silly mistake, but in fairness he probably doesn't know the first thing about defending.

Beau x1

What happened with Eduardo? I wasn't tuned in for that.

Doing flicks right in front of our box, resulted in the first goal.

pat dolan . . . . . implying about the bloody peno and that mannone should have guessed "he went that way against everton last year".:rolleyes:


i reckon we'll do it.

My grandmother would have known that he should have cleared the ball from that position instead of trying to be fancy and making a balls of it.

I am actually glad I no longer give money to Setanta so they can pay for that rubbish

He was being silly,..
Both himself and Rosicky look as naive as each other tonight, like they have been on another footballing planet whilst being missing for over a year.

That iraqgoals stream is rubbish for me. Anyone got a better one?

Fuzzy_Dunlop

That was a fantastic tackle just there from Rosicky.

WillieCocker

It's funny, Vermaelen has been our best player so far.
