Even in the unlikely event it's an absolute cracker of a match?

It doesn't make any difference. It just means that my 'half time' is when I'm asleep. I still see it all. I watched the cracking 1st half at Fulham and went to bed.
Lucky I didn't stay up and watch the 2nd half dirge.

3.00pm kick offs are 2.00am for me and the only time I watch a whole match live is when it's a 7.00am kick off, and even then it will have already started by the
time I turn it on.
 
Must win today., need to be beating Burnley if we’ve got aspirations of Europe.

Personally would like him to ditch the back three/wingback experiment but as Burnley will let us have a lot of the ball, it’s a game where wingbacks will do a lot more attacking than defending so could work.

We had/have some important players injured, Carlo’s felt the need to be creative with formations and selection but it’s not worked. Interesting to see what team he puts out today but never a good sign when you’re guessing from game to game.

For the most part I want to see players playing in their natural positions. Playing Gomes left wing or Davies right wing back is just weird.

Love the fact that Arsenal is still considered a terrifying fixture for our fans. Leicester have been absolute crap recently too.

Anything can happen this season in all fairness, it's just recent form (last 6 weeks) suggesting we're in for a rough ride. Let's turn it round today please bois.

True, no need for it. He rolled the dice on Iwobi against Fulham and it kind of worked because they are so bad. At least we had one full back playing then, though. When we have both out it's concerning to me to see a promosing youngster not given his chance, but who knows what goes on in training or how hard he's working, etc. I desperately hope there is none of that Iwobi at left back and Davies on the right today, mind you. At worse Iwobi right wing back and Nkounkou left. I can imagine he'll select Delph on the left though.

I’d love this game to be over in about the 50th minute, 0-4 or something like that, I very much doubt it though. Another 90 minutes of nail biting heart attack inducing football to bare

That would mean we'd score early then half the team crap themselves and the second half would be like Fulham again.
