West Ham v Arsenal, 17:30, ESPN

L'prof

Very important game for the Gunners today after too poor cup performances. We've beaten the Hammers in our last 2 meetings, but they were both at the Emirates. You have to go back 3 games for our last victory in Upton Park and while they appear to be struggling, they're very capable of putting in a solid display against us this evening. I'm praying for 3 points as we can't afford to fall any further behind United, but nothing can be taken for granted here.

No Parker for West Ham which is good cause he always does well against us. Gibbs is the only defender on our bench which is slightly worrying.

Royale with Cheese

Only one midfielder too. Very top heavy bench.

Big Pussy Bonpensiero

Interesting fact, Djourou hasn't lost a game (may be league game) that he has been involved in with Arsenal.

Don't think so, no assist for Nasri on FF.

One of the key features of a stepover is that you don't touch the ball.....

Souless

Jesus Walcott should of done alot better with that chance! :mad:

Frisbee

Could have been, my stream is atrocious.

Touché!

I'm not actually watching the match so I can't say, but I hope the assist goes to Nasri!

Fuzzy_Dunlop

It'll be great to have Sagna back for the next match. Not looking forward to eboue against Barca.

Frisbee

Great save from Woj.

Awful attempted back pass by Djourou.

+1 while he's not the worst coming on as a sub right attacking midfield he is most definatly not a rb we're bascially playing with 2 CB's and a LB

I usually do but it's not connecting for some reason, doing my head in.

Frisbee

van Persie hits the post more than any other player I've ever seen...

Souless

So unlucky that move deserved a bloody goal!:(

Fuzzy_Dunlop

****in hell van Persie sure loves hitting the woodwork!

Great stream there.

amacachi

Got a jittery stream on the go, almost makes the Arsenal defence look stable.

TanG411

When the post is hit, it means Arsenal will draw. :mad:

amacachi

Get in.

Frisbee

Love it Theo!

Ardennes1944

fantastic change of direction from walcott!!

cson

That's Cesc's goal that is. Didn't give it up after he got stopped in the tackle.

Mars Bar

That was very neat

keano_afc

I'm still sitting tight, last season's game here is still a sore one for me.

Bloody cracking football though, super stuuf. Come on the Arse.

Fuzzy_Dunlop

Really well done by both Theo and Robin.

iMuse

Wayne bridge is having a bad game. Need to push on and score a few more

wandatowell

Liking the performance so far, the team is working hard tracking back when we dont have the ball and bombing forward when we have it. Its putting the hammers under pressure all over the pitch.

M5

"your getting sacked in an hour!"

amacachi

Should've been a good goal there.

cson

Haha, Djourou shows why he's a CB :P

keano_afc

AH! My decision to bring DJ into my FF team yesterday almost paid dividends there.

Same! If he scored and Nasri got a goal or an assist somewhere, my week would be complete.

From what I have seen, Arsenal are completely dominating and look much more threatening with RVP.
