Match Thread Arsenal 5-1 Everton

[jimmythenut]

Just saying like

We haven't beaten them at their gaff since 1996 so parking the bus isn't a suprise.

Lol

No Friend, Sam Allardyce tactics certainly are not the surprise. An attitude of hope and pray strangles our fan base

No Gylfi is a weird one, other than that it's kind of what I expected.

...probably blag, but i’ve been told;

Pickford

Kenny
Williams
Keane
Mangala
Martina

Walcott
Gueye
Schneiderlin
Bolasie

Niasse

Please this not be true!!!!

7 defensive players against a team who was just beaten by swansea. Inviting arsenal to just attack, is not the way forward, especially with Niasse and Bolasie, who due to an injury isn't really on form. Awful selection.

One of the main reasons we've never beaten them at their gaff is because we always park the bus hoping for a draw or to nick one. Maybe, if for once we actually had a go, not go gung-ho, but actually try and win the game.

Don't buy that from Eggs. Think Rooney or Siggy will be in there instead of Bolasie.

Tough fixture, keep me fingers crossed.

It's the lineup mate, too many are hearing the same thing already. No surprise, arsenal play narrow, and try play through teams, so just congest it with five central defensive players.

 

[BernieH]

looks like 541 or 523 depending on how you read it. Not a fan of just saying we are scared of you.

 

[kiss the crest]

I have heard the same as eggs

 

[Highland toffee]

Correct!

Hope not

 

[Iceman11]

Hope not

Unfortunately it is!

Arsenal are in a bit of a crisis (they lost to Bournemouth and Swansea recently); we, on the other hand, would seem to be on the rise again. Walcott and Coleman are on fire, Rooney and Sigurdsson make a perfect duo in the midfield, and in general future looks bright.

I predict a comfortable 3-0 victory today.

Unfortunately only one of those four are playing...lol

Smash the South London squatters!

Please.

Thanks.

Sam Allardyce special if that lineup is true. If he could get more than 5 at the back you better believe he would.

90 minutes of battening down the hatches against a defensively weak Arsenal side, who if they score are guaranteed a win on account of the team being made up of 8 defensive players

 

[nsno-chris]

7 at the back

Smash into the corners

Leg after it
