Arsenal 1-0 Everton.

[Azzurri]

Pretty much my view on it too mate. He's done nothing wrong, I'm trying to note how he helps with distribution and general possession but we're a bit crap in midfield so it's probably best to have the French turbo charged wardrobe with the bulb head to do his usual ace stuff.

That's the best thing about him, Jags and Distin are far better defenderbut both love to take part in a good hoofing session. Heitinga likes to try and play a short pass (except when he tries a 50 yard long ball and hits it 80 yards instead).

I fancy Saha to play well tomorrow like - it's about time he did, and that Mertesacker's shabite.

Drenthe running at Carl Jenkinson/Djourou/Koscielney or Saha belting one from 20 yards is about our only chance of getting anything I think.

 

[Arsene]

Fulham went there a couple of weeks ago and were the better team and came away with a point, why do you feel we have no chance. It is going to be difficult but to say we stand no chance is ridiculous. Some of you lot just come on here for a moan at every opportunity.

fulham were not the better team, they played well. But there's two reasons for that. One because the same 11 arsenal players played 3 days earlier against Dortmund in a very hard game.

Two Arshavin played instead of Gervinho who is our biggest attacking threat. If your right back deals with Gervinho, you will do well, if not then it will be hard game

Let me introduce you to Tony Hibbert..

Also, Gervinho has an absolutely titanic forehead.

Hibbert eats Gervinho alive and scores a hat-trick. Without passing the centre line. In the first 15 minutes.

Nailed on.


Also, hello Arsene. Welcome to GOT! Do you know of a nice chap who goes by the name of Gooney?

He seems to have... gone missing....

Probably just out having a drink with Amelia Earhart and Jimmy Hoffa, like.

If only...it will most likely be the above, only with Distin at CB, Heitinga in Midfield, and Drenthe dropped to the bench

The ole Christmas Tree formation. Very festive.

EDIT: ffs the auto-links were ruining my decorative tree. Fixed.

 

[Walken]

It 'd be a real shame for Heitinger if he gets shunted into midfield after he easily dealt with Stoke, and was superb against Man Utd, having said that if the alternative is Neville!! Cant Moyes take a chance and give Barkley a game in the centre before he is 28 and deemed ready to play in his natural position, or signs for Utd.

 

[davek]

"I’m sure there is a Diniyar Bilyaletdinov on Keppler 22b who is tough in the tackle, picks a mean pass and scores boss toe bungers every second week but the Earth version of him is a bit of a damp squib."



Great line mate.

 

[Tommy Chong]

You have to play Heitinga, don't you?
If anyone knows how to defend against Van Persie, it'll be him?
He has trained extensively with him in the Dutch team!
He should know all of Van Persie's tricks...

 

[turner]

I fear a bumming the likes of which are only dished out in borstals, boarding schools and certain nightclubs where there's a back room with a single red light bulb and a pommel horse.

 

[Alio]

I've just told Gav off Daybreak that Arsensl are gooning down today. Come on the Toffees

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

A little late to the party. But as always great job Chico.

Nice picks of Frank Mclintock, George Graham and Charlie George brought back memories to me.

Hoping for a one all draw. But my inner feeling is we could get walloped today. If they score I just don't see were are goals will come from we look tripe as you say on our build up nevertheless the finished product. I'll keep my fingers crossed that we shy away from our normal setup and go for it.

It's massive, you could land a space ship on it
