Arsenal v Swansea - EPL Tuesday 25th March - 7:45PM

[Munchies]

:coffee:

Team to start:
Fabianski

Sagna
BFG
Kosc
Gibbs

Kallstrom
Flamini

Gnabry
Santi
Rosicky

Sanogo

[AFC Leveller]

I'd bring in Vermaelen for Koscielny. id also play Rosicky in the number 10 role with Gnabs and Ox out wide.

1-1.

1-1.

Ox will probably be suspended, and Gibbs will have his lifted

[Niall_Quinn]

Why will Ox be suspended? It wasn't even a red in the first place, a fact that understandably gets overlooked given the even more farcical antics of the ref. Plus he wasn't sent off, Gibbs was. If Maureen is let off while his bang to rights red gets reviewed (and what a liar Maureen is) then they can't make a player who shouldn't have been sent off and wasn't sent off serve a suspension, can they? Oh wait - they probably can. It's the FA. Fucking Arseholes.

[GP]

Chesney

Sagan
BFG
Boss
Monreal

Ox
Cazorla
Arteta
Rosicky
Podolski

Giroud

3-0

[Niall_Quinn]

Hattrick Ozil?

[GP]

Arteta

[Letters]

Ox will probably be suspended, and Gibbs will have his lifted

I don't think they can retrospectively give Ox a red card because the ref saw the incident (supposedly).
But they will surely have to rescind Gibbs' card.
So, overall, we'll probably get away with it and the FA will finally have been hoisted on the petard of their own ridiculous rules.

[Marc Overmars]

Going to this. Yay.

A must win if we want to maintain the illusion of being title challengers.

[pmakgreb]

Normal back 5.
Arteta
Flamini
Rosicky
Podolski
Giroud
Cazorla

Ox will get the ban, precedent already set this season in a watford game.

Swansea will attack us which will either mean we lose 3-1 or win comfortably.

Just worried about out confidence after so many setbacks....

[Niall_Quinn]

I wouldn't let Giroud back on the pitch for the rest of the season. He literally won't stand up for the team. He's of no use to us.

[IBK]

He has confounded his believers.

[Niall_Quinn]

He has confounded his believers.

He had a huge gift put in front of him and he pissed on it. That's unforgivable considering half of us would give our right nut to play for the club.

[IBK]

Problem is that even if his extra marital activities have affected his form - that makes me dislike him even more - Ligue 1 striker who thinks we are somewhere where he doesn't need to prove himself?

[Xhaka Can’t]

I think Ramsey just made him look better than he was.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

We'll probably be all fired up from Saturday, looking to write wrong and twat them 3 or 4 - 0



Still too little too late though and would just cover up deep flaws.

No we really won't.

[Dein-machine]

Going to this. Yay.

:lol:

[Dein-machine]

If we don't start with pace up top with the likes of OX or Gnabbers - we won't score, simple.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

I would give Gnabbers a go.....amongst other things, a lack of pace has been our undoing

[Niall_Quinn]

Give Ox a go up there, sub him second half then give Gnabbers a go. But just keep hitting them with pace, pace, pace. Meanwhile chain Flamini to Merts so he can't go beyond the halfway line. And ask Sagna and Gibbs (nicely or violently, either's just as good) to cover the defensive flanks so opponents can't just walk in there at leisure.

[GP]

Akpom just scored a hattrick for the u21s. Give him a go.

[pmakgreb]

Kos out injured so i guess we'll see Mert and Vermaelan in the middle with Gibbs out left.

Also talk that Ox, retrospective red will be reduced to a yellow as it wasnt stopping a clear goal scoring chance, something i mentioned at the time to a few...

Abit worried about Swansea's pace up front and Michu back.

[Niall_Quinn]

Basically what we're saying is don't give Giroud a go.

[Munchies]

Ffs, Koscielny out with a calf problem

[pmakgreb]

just saw stats from Swansea's game with Everton. They had 60% posession and 21 shots to 9. Even we didnt have that dominance at home v Everton. They havn't won in 8 but you just know they will get that against us....

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ox and Gibbs won't miss this game.

[fakeyank]

7-0

[Niall_Quinn]

Ox and Gibbs won't miss this game.

Gibbs should play in defence for this one, rather than wherever it was he was playing vs the chavs.

[Injury Time]

The stand making Ox like finger shadows?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Inside the mind of all other players.

[1_nilto the arsenal]

I think Grioud should be dropped. He's just a passenger and we need everyone to stand up and be counted, I would go with Sanogo if he's fit or even the Ox. I can see us winning tomorrow quite comfortably but the joy will only last a few days when we get another hiding from City, could be 5 or 6 depending which City side turn up.

Yeah, Sanogo has to play.

Same ability in front of goal.

But Sanogo offers more in terms of an outlet. He'll chase after the ball and is faster.

[Niall_Quinn]

Gnabry? Why not? He's as good as any other option, has more pace and is more direct.

[Xhaka Can’t]

Something needs to change - I'd go with Gnabry with at Sanogo in the squad. Giroud at present is a waste of space.

[Niall_Quinn]

Something needs to change - I'd go with Gnabry with at Sanogo in the squad. Giroud at present is a waste of space.

At least he lies quite flat to waste less space.

[AFC Leveller]

Drop Giroud from the squad. He's fucking useless these days and complains and moans everytime someone challenges him. Stupid French people.

If Theo was available i'd have played him in the last few games up front, esp away from home where we have more space. He's have burried that early chance against Chelsea.

[AFC Leveller]

Also, is Akpom Evra's brother?

[JonasTC]

Wish we would give Ox and Gnabry a go on the wings... We're really missing speed upfront and thats why Chelsea could just go at us, because they knew we had no speed to punish them (same happend vs Spuds, but they just suck to much).

I'd like to see Sanogo aswell, as bad as he is, we cant deny that when he has been playing, our team has been looking pretty good (even tho' he hasnt).

[pmakgreb]

Diasagree big time re Sonogo. he is poor, alot worse than Giroud. I'm not a big Giroud fan but at the minute he is our best option up top. Remember Everton at home in the cup, Sonogo was awful and it was only when Giroud came on and scored 2 goals did we look comfortable.

Until we sign a proper striker we have to go with the best we have. Cant afford to start gambling with raw players at this important stage of the season.

We are where we are.

[GP]

I like Giroud a lot, I think he's got a lot of qualities that really benefit the team. Early season he was key to the shape of the side, really integral. Though lately he's looked like his heart isn't in it. Maybe he's tired, maybe he wants to leave, who knows?

Play Akpom, tbh.

Play Akpom, tbh.

He was never clinical infront of goal, but he did give us an outlet early on in the season. He made runs, and held the ball up decently.

He's shot now.

Akpom/Sanogo it is.

[pmakgreb]

i fear for us if we are to play Sonogo or Akpom. 4th place could be at risk... Giroud is still our top goalscorer, crazy people would prefer a average player and raw talent with no big game experience over him.

[Marc Overmars]

We might as well play Sanogo, Akpom or whatever reserve we have.

It's no secret we'll be going big for a striker in the summer. Podolski and Giroud may well be considering their futures so I'm not convinced their mind is in the right place anymore, leaving us with no viable options up front. How has this happened?

[Munchies]

Wenger ready to drop Arteta, Szczesny and Giroud tonight [Mail]

Fabs, Flam, Sanogo/Akpom in then. Much better

[PGFC]

No we really won't.

Glad he's dropping Arteta and Giroud, they have bpth been shit for months. Chesney has done well all season apart from the last couple of games but i have no problem with Flaps.

[Marc Overmars]

I'd be surprised if he drops Chesney. Although maybe he wants to give Fab a mini-run of games before Wigan just to keep him sharp.

Arteta and Giroud though.. :wave:

[Letters]

We'll probably be all fired up from Saturday, looking to write wrong and twat them 3 or 4 - 0



Still too little too late though and would just cover up deep flaws.
You say 'deep flaws' but if we win tonight we're 4 points off the top with 7 games left each.
I don't think for one second we're winning the league this year but despite the 3 away thumpings we're not a million miles away.

[Power n Glory]

I'm not sure it's worth dropping Chesney but he has been clowning around a bit lately. Taking risks that he shouldn't but I'm sure he's learned his lesson and should be given a chance to prove himself.

I have no problem with him dropping Arteta. A terrible display over the weekend and a poor captain. Same goes for Giroud.

I think Wenger should just give Podolski a run of games up front and get him off the wings. Give him a last shot there to see if he makes a difference because he's the best finisher in the squad and his style of play made need time to get used to. We should also shift Ox back to the flanks and give Gnarby a chance.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Arsenal starting XI: Szczesny, Sagna Mertesacker, Vermaelen, Gibbs, Flamini, Arteta, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Rosicky, Cazorla, Giroud

So much for dropping Giroud, Arteta and Chesney then

Fuck sake.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

In that case:

3-0.

Giroud, Arteta, Szczesny.

[Power n Glory]

Arteta and Flam in the middle. I'm expecting us to get bossed in the midfield. At least Ox is on the flank for the counters. Plus Rosicky is playing down the middle...or so I hope.

It's a chance for players to prove themselves.

[Flavs]

Hattrick Ozil?

:good:

Arteta will play I think, after his media tirade at how shite they all were against Chavski then i think he will leave him in.

I worry about Vermaelen vs Bony though

Ox on the wings is always exciting tho', looking forward to that :)

"This is where Arsenal really need their supporters behind them", says the commentator.

I assume he means in the stadium and not on GW.

He may not be personally responsible for the goal but ulimately NQ, he doesn't appear to have have the managerial ability to inspire the players to do well tonight.

Main criticism of the manager so far - he MUST see that Giroud can't be arsed. So bring on a replacement now, not on 68mins.

Swansea have figured out we're not here tonight and are getting ambitious.

Oh we're losing and your response is to pick a fight with other Arsenal fans.

Grow up or get lost.

[1_nilto the arsenal]

We are lacking width so badly. What we need for next season is two wingers and a striker and our fast pace game will return, we are too slow in build up play and our passing has gone backwards.

[Munchies]

danny is still a scout for us, unreal

He's been a scout for ages, has he actually you know, scouted anyone ?

Not picking a fight, just curious on those who still back Wenger is the right man to lead us for the next 3 seasons. This is an open forum and I am not flaming or abusing anyone so why dont you grow up.

[Niall_Quinn]

Bloody hell Giroud.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bif not successful with the overhead kick.

[Niall_Quinn]

Worth a try Ox. At least it's positive.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Wasteful from Ox.

[adzzzbatch]

Worth a try Ox. At least it's positive.

he's making runs with the ball and having a go, doing much more than anyone else.

[Niall_Quinn]

Gibbs has got to be subbed, he's got nothing tonight.

[1_nilto the arsenal]

We are being outclassed. How emabrssing.

[Master Splinter]

Ox is the only player threatening them.

Gnabry giving them something to think about on the other flank might give us two threats.

Even Podolski would be useful.

Pace and runners in behind are so crucial.

[Munchies]

Spurs are 6 points behind us..

[Niall_Quinn]

Need a goal before HT or this could be one of those ultra frustrating nights.

[adzzzbatch]

why can't we retain the ball under pressure as well as Swansea are and we're supposed to be a possession team.

Spurs are 6 points behind us..

Everton are the more immediate worry.

Except we aren't being outclassed in any way shape or form. Swansea have been crap. Problem is we've been crap too. But still had all the game.

Yeah - it will really hurt the whole club if we don't get at least 4th so I'm all for that! Come on Swansea!

[Power n Glory]

Unlucky! We will score!

[Maestro]

I don't want 4th if that means we continue with this crap. Fuck the players and the manager.. made for each other the cunts. No urgency, no creativity.. this is beyond a joke.

we need it mate, we'll be hard pressed to attract the calibre of player we need without CL footie

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cazorla shoots, Vorm saves.

[Niall_Quinn]

Holy shit - Flamini clueless.

[adzzzbatch]

giroud :doh:

[1_nilto the arsenal]

Out passed, out run, out played, out scored, out everything. Wenger out.
Agreed 100%. This was not the reaction I was expecting after Saturdays emabrssement.

[Xhaka Can’t]

It looks like our only hope is a penalty.

[Niall_Quinn]

giroud :doh:

He's done.

[adzzzbatch]

Just notice all the away teams are leading tonight

[Master Splinter]

Cazorla may have have come out of hibernation in the last five minutes.

[Power n Glory]

What the fuck is Gibbs doing?

[1_nilto the arsenal]

A manager with 6 games under his belt against a manager with 1001 with just Arsenal being out thought tactically, that is a truly sad stat.

[adzzzbatch]

WTF Gibbs

[JonasTC]

Out passed, out run, out played, out scored, out everything. Wenger out.

What are you talking about? We've dominated this matxh so far, bar one big mistake from a defender who are normally on the bench for that reason.

[Maestro]

emabrssement.

now that's just poor spelling, really poor

[Niall_Quinn]

It looks like our only hope is a penalty.

Nah, we can get a couple of goals against this lot. But we need to make sure we don't give them another one.

[Niall_Quinn]

What the fuck is Gibbs doing?

He's playing like a scared kid. Shouldn't be on the pitch, his head isn't in it.

[Niall_Quinn]

now that's just poor spelling, really poor

It was an accident :run:

[adzzzbatch]

will Wenger have the sense to make some changes in the break :pray:

[LDG]

:ilt:

[Munchies]

Bony is a tank, or our players are weak as shit and don't want to fight for the ball..

[1_nilto the arsenal]

Sagna's crossing has been awful all season, the sooner he leaves the better. IN ARSENE WE TRUST :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-1 HT. A bit shit.

[Munchies]

Cripps woz rite

[Maestro]

It was an accident :run:

:lol:

[adzzzbatch]

Bony is a tank, or our players are weak as shit and don't want to fight for the ball..

The thing is though a lot of fans turn their noses up at a player like Bony and believe giroud is better.

[Xhaka Can’t]

I'm so glad I didn't go to this.

[1_nilto the arsenal]

"An accident happened - that doesn't mean you're not a good driver" Fuck me, who was the driving instructor, he should be shot!

[fakeyank]

Horrible horrible game. Only one good chance against Swansea at home is unacceptable. Everyone associated with the team should be ashamed of themselves.

[Munchies]

The thing is though a lot of fans turn their noses up at a player like Bony and believe giroud is better.

Giroud is a '£10m lamp post' .

Don't see what he does.

Wenger had all summer to get a good striker in, Bony was available, look at his goalscoring record, not that bad so far!

[Xhaka Can’t]

The thing is though a lot of fans turn their noses up at a player like Bony and believe giroud is better.
I don't think there is anyone thinking Giroud is better now.

Someone like Bony would have been just the ticket for the stagger in.

[Penguin]

You would all be slagging Bony off if he was here :lol:

[fakeyank]

What are you talking about? We've dominated this matxh so far, bar one big mistake from a defender who are normally on the bench for that reason.

Dominated? If keeping the ball and passing sideways and backwards is dominating, you must be talking about another game other than football. This is shocking! No excuses for that!

[Power n Glory]

The thing is though a lot of fans turn their noses up at a player like Bony and believe giroud is better.

I've certainly heard that this season.

Giroud is having another one of those games. No movement around the box and isn't even trying to get on the end of a cross. Sagna's crossing has been poor too but he at least needs a target and to see some movement so he knows where to hit it.

[Niall_Quinn]

Laboured, scared performance. Dominating the game, can't do anything with it. Swansea awful, we can't take advantage of that. Gibbs, Sagna - dreadful. Giroud with another zero hearted performance. Cazorla poor. Rosicky poor. Arteta poor. Flamini hopeless. TV showing why he's the benchmeister. Bit sad really. With a couple of changes and a bit more ambition the 3 points are there to be taken.

Will definitely hack my own leg off if we wait until 68mins to change it.

[Master Splinter]

Please make some pro-active changes Wenfer.

Gnabry looks ideal, seeing as they're struggling with Oxlade. And Sanogo or even Podolski in the middle because Giroud has lost all bearings since he reinvented himself as cheap tabloid fodder.

[1_nilto the arsenal]

I hear ya. I have always said you dont have to spend drastically to identify and scout a good potenial striker. Who the fuck was scouting Giroud, no speed, no class, no skill, nothing. Lakaku, Bony, Michu, they are all players who could enhance and score minimum 25 goals per season with our midfield players.

[Munchies]

Ok, let's guess when the subs happen.

I'm going with 72 mins

:coffee:

[Xhaka Can’t]

Giroud is better than this and has been better than this.

He has simply checked out. I hope to god he isn't with us next season.

And by not being with us, I mean at another club.

Not dead.

Bring Park on FFS - anyone. Bring Fabs on as striker, more mobility than Bif, plus we could say "what a fabianski goal!" if he scores.

[Xhaka Can’t]

John Jenson looked more likely than Giroud tonight.

[Niall_Quinn]

I wonder if we're planning to play like this against the gypos? Hope not.

[Niall_Quinn]

TV looks utterly defeated after that goal goes in. Not exactly what you need from your captain.

[Ollie the Optimist]

Giroud is better than this and has been better than this.

He has simply checked out. I hope to god he isn't with us next season.

And by not being with us, I mean at another club.

Not dead.

and not from too many games either. his off field antics have affected his performances. shocking today so far, he doenst even move.

[adzzzbatch]

This bottle of Bordeaux that is keeping me company is good medicine this evening :beer:

[Power n Glory]

and not from too many games either. his off field antics have affected his performances. shocking today so far, he doenst even move.

Why the heck is starting if this is so clear to see?

[Xhaka Can’t]

I wonder if we're planning to play like this against the gypos? Hope not.

If you haven't written that one off yet, then I admire your optimism.

[1_nilto the arsenal]

When I first learned about the Giroud signing and watched him on YouTube, I soon realised we had signed a Stephane Guivarc'h. Absolutley no pace, no skill and just a lump of a striker, I knew then we were in trouble. Pacey strikers win games not strikers who stand still and wait for a flukey chance.

[LDG]

Here we go.

Come on Arsenal :scarf:

[Ollie the Optimist]

If you haven't written that one off yet, then I admire your optimism.

even I've written that one off

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Come on Arsenal. :bow:

[Ralpheroo72]

Chamakh and Giroud will be a potent force at Palace next season.


Giroud is better than this and has been better than this.

He has simply checked out. I hope to god he isn't with us next season.

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

Wow....no 'bif' supporters left round these ere parts hey....

No changes I see...

And even when he gets the chance, he misses !

72 mins it is :coffee:

[1_nilto the arsenal]

So looks like no changes then. I guess Wenger just said same again boys, go and win the game for those poor fucking fans of ours.

oh..dear

[1_nilto the arsenal]

looking good for City! I reckon we might get hit for 7?

[LDG]

Wow....no 'bif' supporters left round these ere parts hey....

It's not black n white ya know.

I still rate him, but he's given up. Silly boy.

[Power n Glory]

One slip and it's a goal conceded. We're playing a suicidal highline. Both Arteta and Flamini are pushing up along with the fullbacks.

[adzzzbatch]

Giroud giving away free kicks now
