brilliant analogy of sagna and ozil. Mertesacker and koscielny are good centre backs, but they are both prone to cock-ups. Only remember the first game this season where that happened, due some? lukaku coluld be a right handfull against them.
if barkley is indeed rotated, i would rather see mirallas in the centre with pienaar left and delafeou right running at gibbs, reckon that could be a battle he'd win as i don't rate gibbs massively defensively. maybe it'll be monrael?
COYB's
same here, osman would get a serious chasing against their midfield if he starts.
Sadly, we'll be doing everyone else a bigger favour than what we get out of it if we win on Sunday - not least Liverpool.

Happy happy joy joy!
What do you propose mate? We stop winning in case it edges someone else closer to a rival? We're winning the league this year anyway mate so dont worry yourself about it

He should just put YAWN at the end to make it clear.
surely we'd be doing ourselves a bigger favour?. Liverpool got 0 points at Emirates.
Just watched Arse v Hull. They are a very good side with various runners creating various avenues for accurate distribution at pace. Ozil and Ramsey are particularly fabulous. Suspect a loss here as I think the emotions post the Manc victory will leave us a little flat. People like McCarthy will be a little knackered. The loss of Gibbo tells at times like this. Need to rotate the Barry-McCarthy engine for mental and physical freshness. I note Wenger rested some of his guns v Hull so think they will be fresher.
Predict 3-1 to them but hope like hell I am full of ****e

Extra days rest, late kick off....players will be fine mate. Nothing like beating the mancs on their own patch of stink to give the boys some energy. If we get beat it will be because they deserve it. I don't think it will be because we are flat and lacking energy. Just my opinion though mate. What a great chance to go there and enjoy ourselves again with 6 points already in the bag this week![]()
