Two keepers on the bench. What a fucking coward.

 

[Gerry_A_Trick]

The bench is awful, we really need to sort out oir injury issues and get Salah back.

 

[Farkmaster]

Bench is horrible and team is toothless. I´m not sure what the alternative really is though.

Yes, nnot much to play with there, except how we set up tactically.

 

[Markeh]

0-3, wirtz 2 szob 1

someone sent off early, arteta in tears

slot hoisted on the players shoulders and fully redeemed

isak rips his cast off in the crowd, instant recovery

linda henry in the crowd, rips her blouse open

 

[SummerOnions]

We're winning this 2-2

 

[SummerOnions]

Slot is gonna talk after the game about how this was the best football of the season

 

[SummerOnions]

Seriously though just put a kid on the bench for experience you coward. 2 keppers on the bench is just to be a moody bitch

 

[Fabio]

Just a good performance please. Fight for second balls. Press well. Hopefully score a goal.

 

[Mamma Mia]

Gakpo and Wirtz with the goals, Frimpong and Bradley with the havoc.

 

[dee]

So back to 4-3-3 with Frimpong and Wirtz flanking Gakkers

 

[Modo]

Based on that bench, we're throwing the FA cup game just like we did in the League cup.

 

[Modo]

3-1 Arsenal

Chiesa to score a late consolation goal

The bench is at least balanced with LB/RB/CB/CM/AM/2 x forwards

 

[Modo]

Good to know that Slot is good at balancing shit

 

[Pellowed]

Surprised to see Jones on the bench for this fixture, especially after his recent performances. A four man midfield would make us stronger defensively.

it also makes us so much weaker offensively

 

[Fabio]

Macca is about to drop a generational stinker of a game.

Day with a Y in it then

Without Ekitike or Isak we don't have the luxury of playing 4 in the middle plus our FBs are a bit bloody hopeless at overlapping runs currently

 

[dee]

Right. Deep breath time. Try to build some optimism. Hope those that have travelled give it a good shout in the library.

After all the gloom on here of late maybe it won't be so bad? After all, Arsenal won't sit back and.... that's a good thing. Right?

 

[SummerOnions]

I can't tell.. either we get a lucky 1-0, it's a thrilling draw for the neutrals that Barney Ronay can write a tapestry about, or we are gonna lose 5-1

Wolves gave Arsenal a tough game recently by parking the bus and hitting them on the break. Stone age tactics but it almost worked. Without our first choice strikers, in what is sure to be rough weather, I think a four man midfield is our best hope of getting something out of this fixture.

The team have bored us for weeks at Anfield, boring us for pleasure in the hope of a scoreless draw is a real treat.

 

[mark1975]

The problem is we'll let them have the ball, that's the problem.

 

[Fabio]

The problem is we'll let them have the ball, that's the problem.

Tbf even if we had the ball we probably wouldn't do anything with it

 

[Best Believe It]

We're going to lose. And we're going to lose huge.

 

[Momo]

1-0 Ngumoha first goal. Get your shilling on it.

 

[tombrown]

Is this the negative pussy nursing home? Sounds like
