Arsenal vs Nottingham Forest 23.11.2024 - KO: 15:00 GMT

It’s fair to say that the international break came at the right time for us, although losing Ben White is certainly not a welcome turn of events. Can only therefore hope that Calafiori is back fit before too long so that he can slot in at left back and Timber on the right.


It’s fair to say this isn’t a side brimming with confidence, too many players not wanting to take shots on. Despite their defeat to Newcastle, Forest will defend robustly and make look to exploit us on the counter. So beating them will be tough, but will hopefully lay down a marker that we can get past teams that are compact and defend deep.

A clean sheet would also be nice

I hope we win, tbh.

This really is a must win if we are going to get back on track

[Marc Overmars]

Big performance and result needed here. Has to be the start of a winning streak otherwise we are finished.

Correct.

After the Chelsea game I actually felt a bit better despite us slipping 2 points further back. It was a decent result (although in the context of the overall run, possibly not good enough), Odegaard was back and by all accounts it was a better performance. We need a good win in this one and go on a good run up to Christmas, which we are certainly capable of given the fixtures. Do that and Liverpool drop a few points - as they surely will start to soon - and we could be back in contention at the start of the year.


...or we could lose in which case #ArtetaOut.

0-3 Wood hatter

[HCZ_Reborn]

Arteta’s 92nd Home League game in charge, of the previous 91 we’ve won 60, drawn 15 and lost 16 (scoring 194 goals…so managing an average of over two goals a game)

We have scored the first goal on 58 occasions, conceded the first goal on 30 occasions

[Mac76]

Sounds like most of the minerly-injured - Saka, Rice, Leo and Califiori - will be available

Feels like Nwaneri should also get minutes in this one though, if only as a sub
