Arsenal v Stoke - Sunday 22 September - 13:30 (Sky Sports 1)

[Master Splinter]

The team picks itself really. Maybe one one of Jenkinson or Monreal will get a start.

Stoke are a bit shit shit away from home. We're seemingly less effective at home. Could be tight against a ten-orc wall and of course, Mike Dean who will surely serve up another refereeing display for the ages.

3-1 (Giroud, Walcott, Ozil).

[Syn]

0-1.

Honestly.

It's all ending in tears.

[Xhaka Can’t]

0-1.

Honestly.

It's all ending in tears.

In that case, its a good thing I'm going to the Pompeii exhibition.

[GP]

3-0

[LDG]

In that case, its a good thing I'm going to the Pompeii exhibition.

That all ended in tears too iirc.

Tears that turned to little puffs of steam :(

[Özil's Panoramic View]

3-1.

[Marc Overmars]

1-0.

Bif with the winner.

[Zerlathon]

I'm going to say 1-1 at half time, with 2 goals on 80+ minutes to lead us to a 3-1 win.

Giroud will hit the opener, with a Ramsey thunderbolt and an Ozil stunner to finish.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-0 or 6-2. We don't often do anything else against Sparky.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

0-0 or 6-2. We don't often do anything else against Sparky.

I think things might be a bit different now that the pube lice (LDG :bow:) isn't calling the shots there anymore.

Hopefully, they'd have downgraded a bit from uruk hais to normal orcs, which should make picking them off a bit easier.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I think it'll still be 'lkick the shit out of them' time.

[torontogooner]

It will give me no greater satisfaction to see Flamini flatten Shawcross early and often.

1-0 Walcott

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

3-0

Ozil hattrick

[Nayan]

3-0 home win

[Ollie the Optimist]

It will give me no greater satisfaction to see Flamini flatten Shawcross early and often.

1-0 Walcott

the only better thing then seeing flamini flatten shawcross, is ramsey scoring the winner and runnning over to shawcross and celebrating in his face

[torontogooner]

the only better thing then seeing flamini flatten shawcross, is ramsey scoring the winner and runnning over to shawcross and celebrating in his face

:gp: I endorse the sentiments.

[Master Splinter]

Or alternatively, Ramsey continues his fine form and helps the team win another game all the while paying no heed to a slack-jawed non-entity playing for a woeful excuse for a football team under a self-promoting failure of a football manager.

[Xhaka Can’t]

3-0 with Rambo getting a Gordie Howe hat-trick.

[Bumble]

We will ruin them. 4-1. Hughes explodes with rage as all our goals are with skilful interplay on the floor.

Or more likely 2-0 giroud and Rambo.

[Injury Time]

0-1 pen for Ozil diving due to getting his leg broken by a Stoke player clearing a corner :sick:

[GP]

TEAM NEWS: No new injuries, Arteta could come back into squad - decision to be made on Saturday morning #AFCvSCFC

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

I thought it was about time for him but I was scared to ask in case I cursed it and he was in fact due back in 2 weeks. :banghead:

Sweet to have him back. Anyone think he should actually start against Stoke?

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

:gp: I endorse the sentiments.

Perhaps my scruples are waving at me from the subs bench but I double endorse the sentiment. :gp: :gp:

[torontogooner]

Looking again at the pic of Ramsey writhing on the ground, to those Gooners at the game on Sunday, give that cunt shawcross shit!

[Ollie the Optimist]

no just put him on the bench. start him against WBA on wednesday

[LDG]

I thought it was about time for him but I was scared to ask in case I cursed it and he was in fact due back in 2 weeks. :banghead:

Difficult.

I love Tets, but who do you drop?

I wanna see where this Rambo/Jack/Flamini thing goes.

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

I think it is maybe a game too early for him to start so I'd be happy not to. We do have a mid week game that I would like for us not to have to field our complete under 21 side in. I don't recall seeing him in many training ground pics either, although clearly he would have been training a little at least.

I'd be happy to take out Flamini for Arteta and I don't think we will actually suffer defensive as a result but it is nice that we actually have a player the manager trusts to play in Arteta's stead.

I may be in a minority but when we have a game at the weekend and a game shortly after in mid week, I tend like to pick two teams at once for each game, or at least half pick the second game.

[Xhaka Can’t]

Looking again at the pic of Ramsey writhing on the ground, to those Gooners at the game on Sunday, give that cunt shawcross shit!

We're not that sort of fans.

[torontogooner]

We're not that sort of fans.

:haha:

[Ollie the Optimist]

also if anyone is an injury doubt for this game, dont play them.

its mark hughes and stoke. their tactic will be kick the shit out of arsenal because of some outdated view we dont like it physical. they'll get a shock when they try it with flamini and he destroys them

[LDG]

Or we could just fucking fuck those cunts up

Biggest premiership defeat coming up.

10-0

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Or we could just fucking fuck those cunts up

Biggest premiership defeat coming up.

10-0

Ignore the neanderthals. No point going down to their level and getting Flamini to break Shawcunts leg and earn himself a 3 game ban when we can't afford to lose him.


Best response would be to absolutely humiliate them on the pitch, a complete walloping with Ramsey getting a hat trick.

[GP]

http://oatcakefanzine.proboards.com/thread/220038/ramsey

Priceless.

[Marc Overmars]

How dare Ramsey, playing at a high level after breaking his leg, what a bastard.

[PGFC]

Wow, their dribbling imbeciles are even worse than ours.

[Dr Singh]

3-0 to us.

We have a good record against them recently, particularly at home.

Considering previous victories over them have included us starting with players like Squilly, Djourou and Gervinho, they are going to get pummeled.

I hope someone stuffs Shawcross in good and proper. If it's Ramsey who does it, all the sweeter! I want to see blood.

[WMUG]

What's that about how Ramsey's leg was broken before Shawcross made contact? :unsure:

[Marc Overmars]

What's that about how Ramsey's leg was broken before Shawcross made contact? :unsure:

Baffled me as well.

They are strange people.

[The Ogg Monster]

Inbred cunts is what they are.

3-0 to us. another wonder display from Ramsey please.

[GP]

We're in for a battle here, so like Letters at a urinal we'll have to stay on our toes.

[I_Killed_Kenny]

3-0 to us. Ozil turns it on for the home crow. Theo with 2, bfg the other

[milla]

Bendtner, Arteta and the new GK are in the squad for this game. I hope Bendtner start alongside Bif and Feo, we could use some height against this Uruk-hais. :coffee:

Even though Pubis is gone, Stoke havnt lost that cuntness and i still hate them as much as i did last season.

We've done well at home against them i think and i expect us to get a result. 3-1 with Giroud Theo and Ramsay getting on the scoresheet.

come on arsenal!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sky's programme starts at 12:30.

[Ollie the Optimist]

mike dean as the ref. given our record with penalties so far this season, expect him to give stoke 5 penalties, send off 3 of our players and disallowed 4 of our goals claiming they didnt cross the line or some other bollocks he usually comes up with

What's Carragher talking about? :lol:

[Özim]

Wilshere has 2 goals in 80 PL games, shocker that one.

Sky just showed a stat where Ramsey had more assists, more goals, more passes and more tackles than Wilshere in the 1st 4 games. When Cazorla comes back Wilshere will probably be dropped.

[Özim]

I was surprised he has so few goals, from what I've seen of him he's not created much either. I know he's been injured but those stats are the stats of England's brightest young talent.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Ffs, they are literally dropping like flies.

[Ollie the Optimist]

rumours on twitter that gnarby is starting instead of theo who has an injury. not confirmed yet by arsenal or journalists.


edit: apparently theo is ill. begs the question, why was he starting in the first place? unless he just vomitted all over the changing room

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ah illness for Theo apparently.

[GP]

Theo has the green apple splatters.

[Maestro]

nasty contagious bug been going round the team over the last couple of weeks

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

FFS.

Its FA, they're after us, they tried holding us back with croocked refs, but that didnt work, so now they're poisoning our players instead!

No Theo? Fuck.

Hopefully this Gnabry kid is good.

[Ollie the Optimist]

Never seen Gnabry play, is he shit or okay?

mixed bag. some games he looks class, others he looks a bit lost. if he makes the runs though, ozil will find him. fingers crossed

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Never seen Gnabry play, is he shit or okay?

Has been one of our best players in the reserves though the couple of times he's been asked to step up into the first team he's looked shaky.

Definitely has the quality to be a good first team player for us though. Time for him to man up and show us what he's worth.

[milla]

He's ridiculously good.

I hope Wenger will play him on the left and Jack on the right. The kid is talented though. :coffee:

[Syn]

Never seen Gnabry play, is he shit or okay?

He's 18 years old. A talented youngster. No need to put him in any category yet - lets wait until he has a season under his belt as a squad player.

This bug got mert and ozil first now theo. Sort it out.

Jurgi Loew is there. :bow:

[mkkreuk]

how many has ozil picked out merts from a corner playing/practicing for Germany? This will be a very useful tool, especially in the short term.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

We are missing Theo. His pace and runs always gave us a real threat on the right.

[Maestro]

definitely son of tyson

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Özil. :bow:

Least said about the pass the better.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

BFG and Jones clash heads.

[Penguin]

We are missing Theo. His pace and runs always gave us a real threat on the right.

Gnabry keeps drifting into the CM area, leaving us with zero width considering Ozil's on the left. And whenever Sagna goes forward to support him on the right, Gnabry drops back into RB leaving Sagna to attack alone :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ches nearly played Flamini in to trouble, did well.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Ffs Wheelchair. :doh:

[Maestro]

giroud has been poor so far

[Globalgunner]

We need to learn to kill off these mongrel teams. Stoke are little different from the bog dwelling Orcs that Pulls used to lead. They still have a nauseating prick for a manager too.BTW, Jack is most certainly the one to drop when Cazorla comes back. Our weakest midfielder by farce

[McNamara That Ghost...]

2-1 HT. Not really a classic.

[Penguin]

giroud has been poor so far

Tbf he hasn't had any support. Not much he can do if we can't get the ball to him.

[GP]

giroud has been poor so far

No he hasn't. He's been quite good, if a little isolated.

[AFC Leveller]

Stoke to get an eqauliser just after half time.

worying that we have noone on the bench to change things up, esp attacking wise.

[Munchies]

Thanks to GP for this site, they got HD streams for games.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Wasn't a high pressing 1st 45 minutes..... clearest indication yet that they're getting ripped apart for the 2nd half.

[Maestro]

re:giroud

opinions

when he's had the ball i just think he could have used it better. calm down pass it and move, forcing things a little imho.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Theo's a bit missed, too.

His pace and the width he adds to our game would have given these orcs a mare.

[Munchies]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BUxSMriCYAA5EaW.jpg

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Hughes will rile up Stoke during HT and for the first 15 minutes of the Second Half they're going to have a real go. We need to weather this storm and snatch a goal to shut them up.

Haven't really been at the races today tbh. Not created that much but I think a lot of that is due to the fact that Stoke are playing quite well.

[Darknight02]

I thought its been an excellent controlled performance.

Giroud has been exceptional in my opinion. He's competed for every ball. Won every ball and held off both Shawcross and Huth on multiple occasions. His touch has become fantastic. He would have made a fabulous assist with his head if he had just timed his run from offside better.

Ozil has contributed to both goals and has had two assists so far. We really are missing Theo and a proper winger on the left flank. As it would have given us so much penetration.

Been very impressed by Gnabry. He looks more like a central mid and unfortunately doesn't give us pace and an outlet on the right wing. But again extremely impressive in his strength, maturity and hold up play. Could have had a goal with a better composed shot.

Weakest player so far has been Wilshere. Drifting centrally far too often and leaving Gibbs exposed.

Flamini has been very solid in my opinion as well.

We are competing for every ball. And I'm sure any team watching would see that we are not being outmuscled at all by anyone.

If only we had a pacey winger on both flanks, we'd have cut them open on multiple occasions.

Bit of a strange game so far, the crowd are very flat and there doesn't appear to be much urgency from either side, yet there have been 3 goals. After we scored we fell into that old habit of playing like it's a training routine and got caught out by their first period of pressure, thankfully we woke up and restored the lead.

I think we're missing Theo's running, it's all very congested and geared towards the centre at the moment.

We've not really done a lot wrong but hopefully we can put this to bed before allowing them to come at us again.

Loved Ramsey's little ssshhh to the Stoke fans. :lol:

Theo's a bit missed, too.

His pace and the width he adds to our game would have given these orcs a mare.

He really hasn't been missed so far.

Hughes will rile up Stoke during HT and for the first 15 minutes of the Second Half they're going to have a real go. We need to weather this storm and snatch a goal to shut them up.

Haven't really been at the races today tbh. Not created that much but I think a lot of that is due to the fact that Stoke are playing quite well.

we've not been good, i'll take any kind of win today. just win against the cunts

Tbf, the date on the first one is from two seasons ago.

But still, Piers Morgan... Cunthammer of the first order.
