Martinez press conference vs Arsenal

[Nobody]

Did the gaffer do a press conference this morning? It's usually uploaded by now isn't it? I can't wait to watch it with it being a massive game of our season and I'm convinced if we can beat Arsenal we will win the cup.

We came through the internationals unscathed and we have fresh players in Baines, Barkley, Jagielka, Distin, more or less everyone. It was only Coleman who played the full ninety. Our football is suited to Arsenal's pitch, last time there we played them off the park and Barkley ran the show in midfield. The whole team shone and I think the occasion will get Lukaku, Deulofeu and McCarthy up for a great performance. I've never felt more confident going to the emirates, despite our dip in form lately I think we will turn it around on Saturday and but in a performance that will resemble one from late 2013.

Delayed mate as he's been doing some other interviews.

I'd guess for ITV.

Apparently Koscielny missed Frances friendly last night, tweaked his hamstring in the warm up, hopefully for us this is confirmed in the PC.

Sounds very unlikely Jags is going to be fit according to RM. Everyone else (apart from long term) is fit.

 

[ijjysmith]

God I hope he's pulling our leg about Jagielka.

God I hope he's pulling our leg about Jagielka.

Pun?

 

[ijjysmith]

Pun?

Nope. Actual.

 

[FTY]

Nope. Actual.

No I mean was it a joke about pulling our leg, considering what the injury was.

 

[bluelife]

Don't want to get my hopes up because its the kind of game that can just end up voiding your weekend of all happiness and hope within 30 minutes.

 

[mawders]

God I hope he's pulling our leg about Jagielka.

Pretty much guaranteed Jags won't play. After what happened in the derby with half fit defenders I think it's common sense to play Stones. He made one mistake against west Ham that led to Carrolls shot on goal but other than that he was solid. My team;

Howard
Coleman, Stones, Distin, Baines
Del McCarthy Barry Kev
Ross
Rom

Wilshere out!! Don't think its a massive difference but every little helps
