Arsenal V Everton, Sun 1 March, KO 1405

[fakeyank]

Think this will be a draw, 1-1.

Need to start with Theo or Ox on the wings.

Ospina

Bellerin Kos Gabriel Gibbs

Santi Coq Rosicky

Walcott Welbeck Sanchez

Subs: Per, Chezza, Ozil, Ox, Monreal, Giroud, Ramsey

[Marc Overmars]

Good opportunity for Everton to get their season back on track.

[GP]

6-0

[Niall_Quinn]

3-0 Ozil hattrick, yawn.

[adzzzbatch]

Meh.

[Injury Time]

Lawro has us down for 2-0, my dad is going with my mate as I've got work to do.

Early ko so a laboured 0-1 as Wenger fails to get them mentally prepared again :rolleyes:

[alexander]

who knows.

We could turn up prepared and batter them. On the other hand we could turn up and play like a real sack of crap. No idea with this team and its manager. Like Russian roulette.

[Globalgunner]

Nah think we will win 2-0 and the loony at the helm will start spouting about "Belief, spiwit, qualitee, and character"

Not surprised many people enjoy negative predictions and when that happens the same people come out complaining about Wenger . The truth is you always get what you wish for . If you always predict bad luck to your team that is more likely to come true .
3-1 Arsenal for me .

[Herbert_Chapman's_Zombie]

Ospina needs to be dropped, he's had his chance and he's just not good enough

Szczesny, Bellerin, Gabriel, Koscielny, Monreal, Coquelin, Cazorla, Walcott, Ox, Sanchez, Giroud

[AFC Leveller]

Ospina needs to be dropped, he's had his chance and he's just not good enough

Szczesny, Bellerin, Gabriel, Koscielny, Monreal, Coquelin, Cazorla, Walcott, Ox, Sanchez, Giroud

I dont think he has been bad but from what i've seen of him this season, he has al the traits of a wenger goalkeeper, good with his feet, good shot stopper but dodgy on crosses and long balls.

punches things away too often, poor distribution and goal kicks

[Master Splinter]

Szczesny, Bellerin, Gabriel, Koscielny, Monreal, Coquelin, Cazorla, Walcott, Ox, Sanchez, Giroud

We have enough problems simply retaining the ball these days, so Walcott, Ox and Sanchez together is a disaster waiting to happen. If there was some established security behind them, it could be great. Rosicky should play, but obviously Ozil will instead.

We always have a problem retaining the ball when the much maligned Arteta isn't playing. Everyone knows he's absolute shit and needs to be killed, but sometimes we miss his 90% minimum, European leading ball retention and distribution.

3-1 Arsenal for me .
Oh good grief, if wishing team bad luck made it happen I think the collective wishes of a nation would have seen Rooney spontaneously combusting. Tbh my predictions are usually tongue in cheek, we should stuff them, like we should've stuffed (or at least turn up against) Monaco. As said elsewhere if you can't get your team mentally prepared for Chumps league you should walk, keep walking, stop for a breather and then walk some more.
I want the team to do well, I pay my season ticket (I'm going to Old Trafford) because I'm a fan of over 40 years, I expect them to give 100% each match, if they win it's a bonus but FFS turn up is a minimum!
I think Wenger appears good at finding good players at a good price, is he getting the best out of them, i don't thinks so-doesn't mean I want him set on fire, just time he played to his strengths.

[Master Splinter]

We always have a problem retaining the ball when the much maligned Arteta isn't playing. Everyone knows he's absolute shit and needs to be killed, but sometimes we miss his 90% minimum, European leading ball retention and distribution.

In his absence, WUMger refuses to play Rosicky who's the next best option for ball retention.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

The Arsenal: Ospina, Bellerin, Gabriel, Koscielny, Gibbs, Coquelin, Cazorla, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Özil, Alexis, Giroud.
Subs: Szczesny, Mertesacker, Monreal, Chambers, Rosicky, Walcott, Welbeck.

Everton: Howard, Coleman, Jagielka, Stones, Garbutt, Barry, McCarthy, Besic, Mirallas, Barkley, Lukaku.
Subs: Joel, Gibson, Naismith, Osman, Alcaraz, Lennon, Coney.

[Gooner23]

The Arsenal: Ospina, Bellerin, Gabriel, Koscielny, Gibbs, Coquelin, Cazorla, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Özil, Alexis, Giroud.
Subs: Szczesny, Mertesacker, Monreal, Chambers, Rosicky, Walcott, Welbeck.

Happy with that team except I would have dropped Ozil for Rosicky.

[Marc Overmars]

Do not forget Rosicky has nearly reached his quota of 10 starts a season. We must use the remainder wisely.

[AFC Leveller]

Merts dropped, as last. He has been crap.

I'd have gone for Rozza too instead of Ozil. Light weight midfield again with both Ozil and Cazorla.

[Niall_Quinn]

Happy with that team except I would have dropped Ozil for Rosicky.

Everton will be strong in the middle. Ox is not a central midfielder, if that's where Wenger is playing him. If not it will be Cazorla. Another player who isn't a central midfielder. He's trying to accommodate Ozil and Cazorla again.

[Munchies]

Good to see Mertesacker dropped, a liability all season

[Master Splinter]

We have one genuine central midfielder playing against three or four, if Barkley is playing deeper.

They're going to have most of the ball, like our last few meetings.

We have to hope Premier League Lukaku shows up today. At least Naismith isn't playing.

I think we need to compound the mistake by keeping everything very narrow.

[AFC Leveller]

I heard that Mertesacker is dropped PERmenantly.

So Everton have 2 proper CMs in Barry and McCarthy + Barkley while Winget has decided to play Coquelin on his own. Clever.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Barry is truly Old Man Barry these days.

[Munchies]

Barry is truly Old Man Barry these days.

Still worth an England call up :lol:

[Niall_Quinn]

Barry is truly Old Man Barry these days.

Yeah but he's still old man break up our tippy tappy by any means. You don't need much to shut down our eye of the needle nonsense.

[Power n Glory]

In his absence, WUMger refuses to play Rosicky who's the next best option for ball retention.

No idea what Rosicky has to do to get a start for us. It's not even just ball retention he adds. We attack with purpose when he plays and we create more chances. It's not just the simple back and forth passes where the ball goes nowhere. It's criminal.

He was told not to pass it forwards but he kept doing it anyway. You can't allow that level of indiscipline.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Come on Arsenal. :bow:

[LDG]

I'm sure Wenger has it worked out, but I have a feeling Everton will flood the midfield, sit deep and hit us on the counter.

Therefore, I expect he has told his team to be diciplined and not overcommit, play it simple and use the width of the pitch.

I do not expect us to get closed down quickly, rushing our passing, getting caught in possession whilst our defenders are over-committed up top.

No, I'm sure we'll be completely prepared.

[Niall_Quinn]

Owen :doh:


NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[adzzzbatch]

No doubt about it.

Are you on hollibops in an alternative reality?

[Marc Overmars]

Come on Arsenal you awful bunch.

[Niall_Quinn]

BT reckon it will be Ox in the middle. So we lose his direct play on the flank in that case. Ozil wide, where we already know he doesn't do well.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

A good alert start from us.

:unsure:

[Niall_Quinn]

Here we go. We need 3 points minimum from this one.

[Niall_Quinn]

Immediately 5 vs 2 in the middle.

[Niall_Quinn]

Nah, BT got it wrong, Ox is wide right.

[adzzzbatch]

Midfield well and truly stuffed, lets see how we respond.

[Niall_Quinn]

Why are we stopping play to claim FKs? Little bit crazy.

[adzzzbatch]

mertesacker :wave:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Managed to pick up co-commentary from Phil Neville. :sick:

[Niall_Quinn]

Managed to pick up co-commentary from Phil Neville. :sick:

Thanks. That helps with the Owen thing a bit.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Aimless hoof from Gibbs.

[Niall_Quinn]

We've stamped our anonymity on this opening stage.

[adzzzbatch]

We've stamped our anonymity on this opening stage.

very much so.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Terriible from Alexis.

[Niall_Quinn]

Our crossing :haha:

[Master Splinter]

Alexis Sanchez :doh:.

[adzzzbatch]

So this closing down players thing?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

According to the commentator I am listening to, our first match at the Emirates was in 1996.

It's Olivier, Phil, not Oliver.

[Niall_Quinn]

Our front man is barely a yard inside the the opposition half when we get possession.

[AFC Leveller]

Alexis Sanchez :doh:.

Has a habit of doing unnecessary flicks and back heels when a simple pass would do.

[adzzzbatch]

29% possession at home :haha:

pathetic

[Niall_Quinn]

71% possession for Everton so far. On our patch.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Besic. :haha:

[Niall_Quinn]

Besic :haha:

[Niall_Quinn]

Besic. :haha:

You've gone with the full stop again? Still don't like it.

[Power n Glory]

Gibbs shouldn't be starting over Monreal.

[AFC Leveller]

71% possession for Everton so far. On our patch.

Much last like season when they dominated us and we scored in the 80th minute.

Wenger definitely knows what he is doing, sometimes.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Er Gabriel. :doh:

Ospina clears up his mess.

[Niall_Quinn]

Gabriel :doh:

Ospina rescues us.

[Power n Glory]

Of dear! Good recover by Ospina. Gabriel. :doh:

[adzzzbatch]

Gabriel :haha:

[Niall_Quinn]

Ches looks happy.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Terrible pass from Ox.

[Niall_Quinn]

Come on Ox, WTF was that?

[adzzzbatch]

alexis :doh:

[Niall_Quinn]

Is Alexis showing early symptoms of Wengeritis?

[Niall_Quinn]

Gabriel can't afford to be fucking up with a face like that. He needs to be doing it better than everyone else.

[adzzzbatch]

What a load of shit this match is

[AFC Leveller]

Is Alexis showing early symptoms of Wengeritis?

Arshavin all over again....i hope not though.

[adzzzbatch]

Gabriel :haha: so shit

[adzzzbatch]

not much sound coming from the fans at the soulless corporate bowl.

[adzzzbatch]

I'm loving the response to the other night, showing great spirit and togetherness.

[Niall_Quinn]

If we're going to play it like this then surely Walcott is a better option to Giroud?

[AFC Leveller]

Wenger was right, we will be surprsed by what we see on Sunday.

This has been the greatest non bounceback game since we were last humiliated.

[adzzzbatch]

yes owen it was a foul

[Niall_Quinn]

Why not a yellow?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Great response. :lol:

[adzzzbatch]

Wenger was right, we will be surprsed by what we see on Sunday.

This has been the greatest non bounceback game since we were last humiliated.

:haha:

[Power n Glory]

I think we're trying to hit them on the break.

[Niall_Quinn]

BT showing the empty seats.

[adzzzbatch]

no shots on target :haha:

[adzzzbatch]

giroud :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Giroud somehow misses.

[Master Splinter]

Might as well take Giroud off now.

[Niall_Quinn]

That's more like it. Notice how by playing the ball forward we created a bigger threat.

[Power n Glory]

Giroud has to score that.

[Niall_Quinn]

Giroud has to score that.

It's a plus we actually had somebody in the box. Let's go from there.

[adzzzbatch]

our crossing :lol:

[Master Splinter]

-25% successful crosses.

[Munchies]

ffs

useless

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Another crap cross.

[Power n Glory]

We're definitely trying to break on them with pace instead of bossing with possession. Makes sense.

[adzzzbatch]

a little better there

[Niall_Quinn]

Well it's inept but at least we are on the front foot.

[AFC Leveller]

We're definitely trying to break on them with pace instead of bossing with possession. Makes sense.

We have pace to burn but Giroud is not about pace, so why play him? Welbz or Feo would have been much better.

[Niall_Quinn]

Lazy by Giroud FFS

[adzzzbatch]

the quality or lack of in this match is shocking

[Niall_Quinn]

We are way too deep when we don't have the ball. There's no outlet if we win possession. Cautious is okay but this is too much.

[adzzzbatch]

cross :haha:

[Niall_Quinn]

The crossing :doh:

Sort it out

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bellerin shot blocked by Jagielka.

[Power n Glory]

Gibbs can't cross for toffee! When will he improve?

[Niall_Quinn]

Bellerin's pace over the first yard is awesome.

[adzzzbatch]

crowd wakes up little bit

[Niall_Quinn]

crowd wakes up little bit

They're handing out discounted prawn sandwiches.

[adzzzbatch]

lukaku :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a tackle by Gabriel. :bow:

[Niall_Quinn]

Gabriel :bow:

[Niall_Quinn]

Finally - we might have a footie game here.

[Power n Glory]

Brilliant tackle from Gabriel but almost caught out on the break.

[adzzzbatch]

woooooooooooooo

[McNamara That Ghost...]

GIROUD!!!!

[Power n Glory]

Goaaaal!

[Master Splinter]

BIF!!!!

He's back!

[Niall_Quinn]

GIROUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That'll do

[adzzzbatch]

lovely goal

[Power n Glory]

Fine finish from Giroud.

[Niall_Quinn]

It's almost as if being positive instead of desperately negative has transformed our game.

Have the players ignored Wenger again?

[LDG]

:scarf:

[Master Splinter]

We are kings of the set-piece :bow:.

Time to snap up Crouch, Zigic and Big Andy.

[adzzzbatch]

giroud giving it away :doh:

[Niall_Quinn]

Alexis giving it away much too much.

[AFC Leveller]

It's almost as if being positive instead of desperately negative has transformed our game.

Have the players ignored Wenger again?

They have started to apply the "do the opposite of what wenger says" logic. If he says stay back and wum, they attack with pace and create.

Good on them.

[adzzzbatch]

coq :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ox and Coq. :haha:

Clowning around.

[LDG]

Coq cocked it up :doh:

[Niall_Quinn]

Even Bellerin not fast enough to cover all the mistakes being made by Ox and Coq

[Niall_Quinn]

Gibbs in the centre going for a Giroud cross :haha:

Wengerball :bow:

[adzzzbatch]

ooooooooooooo nice from cazorla

[Master Splinter]

Oxlade's passing is beyond poor. Just criminal at this level. Surely someone can work with him on it on the training ground?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Howard saves from Catzola.

[Niall_Quinn]

Nice effort by Santi.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Besic trying to help us out, Howard saves.

[Niall_Quinn]

Sagna :haha:

[Injury Time]

Please pile in a few more we are +1 gd over United

[Munchies]

Howard saves from Catzola.

Cats :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Arsenal 1-0 Everton, HT.

A disgusting pub team is what we are.

[Niall_Quinn]

HT 1-0

Desperate start but we've picked it up and deserve the lead.

[adzzzbatch]

another goal on the 2nd half please

[LDG]

Owen's voice :angry:

If he wasn't a footballer, he would have been a fucking copper.

[AFC Leveller]

Cats :bow:

http://img.thesun.co.uk/aidemitlum/archive/01505/leecattermole_1505689a.jpg

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

I remember we bought a pie.

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

Owen's voice :angry:

If he wasn't a footballer, he would have been a fucking copper.

:d

[Niall_Quinn]

Owen's voice :angry:

If he wasn't a footballer, he would have been a fucking copper.

That's a horrendous thought.

[Gooner23]

Enjoyed that once we got going. As always our final ball has been careless. Everton don't look up to much though so we might get away with it for once.

[Niall_Quinn]

Barclays helping out football :bow:

By robbing everyone in sight and the kicking a bit back for advertising and a bit of fake respectability. :doh:

[Power n Glory]

We just have to stay switched on. It looked like a slow start but I think it's intentional that we sit deep and let a ball hogging team like Everton come forward and hit them on the break. Long sustained periods of attack where we have possession is where I worry because we switch off and keep pushing men forwards.

[LDG]

I remember we bought a pie.

And he would have been Owens D.I.

The pair of them. Policemen in disguise.

[AFC Leveller]

We only got going after that tackle from Gabriel.

Merts would have been upfield. just saying.

[adzzzbatch]

We only got going after that tackle from Gabriel.

Merts would have been upfield. just saying.

he would have ducked out of the tackle.

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

So does he have a 'knock' or was he dropped or was he rested?

[Niall_Quinn]

That's a fucking foul!

Ridiculous.

And the Giroud gets booked.

fucking ridiculous.

[Niall_Quinn]

Not good by Ospina.

[adzzzbatch]

all everton from the kick off

[Alpha]

Oh good grief, if wishing team bad luck made it happen I think the collective wishes of a nation would have seen Rooney spontaneously combusting. Tbh my predictions are usually tongue in cheek, we should stuff them, like we should've stuffed (or at least turn up against) Monaco.

Every one is entitled to his opinion and I agree with that . I , personly like fans who support their team to the last second of the game, fans who make it hard for the visiting teams and push their team to the victory , fans who believe in their team and never give up .Unfortunately , most arsenal fans are not that way . Any defeat hurts but it hurts more when fans boo their own team . It's pointless and doesn't help at all.

[Niall_Quinn]

Crazy dive. Ref buys it. Fucking ridiculous.

[Niall_Quinn]

all everton from the kick off

All poxy ref tbf

[adzzzbatch]

kos isn;t with it today

[adzzzbatch]

COME ON ARSENAL

[Niall_Quinn]

Did Coq just signal he wants to come off?

[adzzzbatch]

good strength by giroud

[adzzzbatch]

Did Coq just signal he wants to come off?

nah just a new shirt

[Niall_Quinn]

Good effort buy Giroud. Strong.

Was a pen too but not given.

[Niall_Quinn]

Definite pen. Stopped the shot with his arm. Crappy ref.

[adzzzbatch]

Gabriel has been good since his early fuck ups

[Niall_Quinn]

Gibbs :doh:

[GP]

Neville is woeful.

[Niall_Quinn]

Bellerin playing well, Gibbs playing crap

[adzzzbatch]

ozil :haha:

[AFC Leveller]

Bellerin playing well, Gibbs playing crap

If ever there was a guy playing with the handbrake on, its Gibbs. Always plays it safe and looks timid and shy on the ball.

Grow a pair you pansy.

[Niall_Quinn]

Ozil skies it over the Everton bar.

[adzzzbatch]

lenon coming on, who?

[adzzzbatch]

alexis has been crap today

[adzzzbatch]

bellerin good run but then :doh:

[Niall_Quinn]

Rapid feet from Bellerin, mush faster than his brain.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mirallas off, Lennon on.

[Niall_Quinn]

Miralles off. At least we won't have to put up with his non-stop diving.

Lemon on.

[AFC Leveller]

Lennon the wide right Gibbs. looks energetic and pacey but had no end product and runs into players.

[adzzzbatch]

we need another goal

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cazorla sends it sky high.

[Niall_Quinn]

Beautiful football. Such a shame that didn't hit the net.

[adzzzbatch]

too tippy tappy

[Niall_Quinn]

Too intricate.

SHOOOOOOOT!

[adzzzbatch]

good save!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ospina saves from Lukaku.

[Niall_Quinn]

Fuck. Hoof ball. Ospina tips it over from Lukaku.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Garbutt. :haha:

Phil Neville has already picked him out as a future England player and that was after ten minutes.

[adzzzbatch]

hope coq is ok :(

[Niall_Quinn]

Head injury for Coq. Looked a bit nasty that one. Got butted by Bif.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Giroud takes Coquelin out.

[Power n Glory]

Coquelin is bleeding bad I think.

[Power n Glory]

It's his nose. May have broke it if it won't stop bleeding.

[Niall_Quinn]

Garbutt. :haha:

Phil Neville has already picked him out as a future England player and that was after ten minutes.

World Class. Wonderkid. 60mill to gypos. Has anyone ever seen a better defender than Walker? Or a better winger than (can't remember his name but that spud who is world class too)

[adzzzbatch]

nose looks broken

[Niall_Quinn]

Coq back on his feet but heading off the pitch. Looks dzed still. Doubt he can play on.

[adzzzbatch]

coq back on :bow:

[Niall_Quinn]

He might not have a nose any more but he's got balls.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lennon prods it, Opsina well to it. :bow:

[adzzzbatch]

shhhhhhhhiiiiiiit nearly let cunt score

[Niall_Quinn]

Good save Ospina from Lemon.

[adzzzbatch]

fuck off barkly

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gabriel is the new Kos. :bow:

[Niall_Quinn]

Barkley not booked? What?

[adzzzbatch]

hows that not a booking?

[Niall_Quinn]

Which version of the rulebook states it's not a yellow card for deliberate fouls on Arsenal players?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Phil Neville on Barkley: Has the potential to be the best midfielder in Europe.

:haha:

Please stop.

[adzzzbatch]

too fucking tippy :banghead:

[Niall_Quinn]

Phil Neville on Barkley: Has the potential to be the best midfielder in Europe.

:haha:

Please stop.

He's world class. Like Baines.

[adzzzbatch]

WTF coq

[McNamara That Ghost...]

He's world class. Like Baines.

And Garbutt.

[Niall_Quinn]

That useless fucker Naismith is coming on. This has late fluke equaliser written all over it.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Besic off, Naismith on to ruin it all.

[adzzzbatch]

He's world class. Like Baines.

like naismith

[Niall_Quinn]

And Garbutt.

Garbutt is world class. Probably the best young talent I have seen since Kompany was young.

[adzzzbatch]

get gibbs off ffs

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Koscielny booked, of course.

[adzzzbatch]

kos :doh:

[Niall_Quinn]

Oh yeah - Kos booked of course. Ref has no problem getting the card out for our lot.

[adzzzbatch]

the whole of the everton side are world class tbh, tbf.

[Niall_Quinn]

Alexis :doh:

That's no good.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stones the next England Captain with play like that.

[adzzzbatch]

COME ON ARSENAL FFS!

[Power n Glory]

We should be making a change. Ox off for Theo. Te game isn't over yet. Coq may need a rest as well with that knock.

[Niall_Quinn]

Fuck, we're blocking our own shots again.

[adzzzbatch]

fuck off ozil

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Smash it Özil!

[Niall_Quinn]

Stones the next England Captain with play like that.

Stones is world class.

[Niall_Quinn]

Ozil is not world class :doh:

[adzzzbatch]

Ozil is not world class :doh:

sell him he's shit

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stones off, Gibson on.

Ox off, Rosicky on.

All according to the commentator.

[Niall_Quinn]

Gibson coming on. He's world class.

Rosicky coming on. He doesn't convince me. Not in that shirt. Ox off. Mixed from him. Busy. wasteful.

[Niall_Quinn]

Alexis is being fouled literally every time he gets the ball.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It's Old Man Barry off for Gibson.

[adzzzbatch]

barry world class off replaced by Gibson another worldie

[Niall_Quinn]

Barry off, Gibson (a worldie) on.

[adzzzbatch]

alexis :doh:

[Power n Glory]

Sanchez needs a smack sometimes.

[Niall_Quinn]

First big challenge goes in from us in the middle.

Who?

Rosicky.

[adzzzbatch]

1-1 coming up

[Niall_Quinn]

Welbeck getting ready. Put him on for Bif and pump it over the top.

Ospina does well there.

Garber or Garbutt (it changes) is world class.

[adzzzbatch]

good sub for a change

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Alexis off, Welbeck on.

[Niall_Quinn]

It's Alexis off, Welbeck on. Pointless sub.

[Globalgunner]

Can we pub it out for another 10 mins
