English League Football ** spoilers ** [2nd - 3rd October 2010]

I think he should definitely be loaned somewhere, he isn't progressing at all. I know he only gets the odd game here and there but Wiki says 3 goals in 20 games, and one of those was a handball! I say loan him out where he'll get regular football and see how he does. Owen, Bebe and Hernandez is plenty of cover. I think Welbeck looks more dangerous than Macheda tbh.

I dont mind loaning him out - its "with the idea of selling him next summer" is the bit I dont like:(

Noticed how we've had two clean sheets since Rio came back? Both of them away, one of the against the current best side in the Spanish League (which some say is the best league)

There's a reason for that.

You have to admit thats more luck than judgement (Rio certainly did some great defending against Valencia, but they were wasteful also) - rio is still a lot better than Jonny this season (on a good day JE imo is a great centre half, but not so far this seasoon), but I just dont think Rio will ever be a permanent fixture in the 1st XI again.

I will happily eat my hat if he plays more than 6 1st team games in a row after the int break

Arsenal going to batter Chelsea today, last few games against them Arsenal haven't had a real striker and have been ineffective in the box, Chamakh is going to bang a hat trick in and make Terry re-consider his values. Can't wait, 5 - 1 Arsenal.
 
Or are Chelsea going to out muscle Arsenal and deliver a humiliation themselves?
 
Arsenal will dominate the game, Chelsea may bundle one in on the counter attack but as I say, Chamakh will score at least 3, maybe 5
 
No chance, we can and usually always outplay Chelsea but our incompetence in the final third and the physical power of Chelsea will be our undoing.

• Arsenal's record against Chelsea and Manchester United since their win at the Bridge in November 2008 stands at: P9 W0 D1 L8 F5 A20

• Arsenal have only been able to win two of their last 17 matches against Chelsea

Stats usually mean **** all but with a weaker squad then last year playing i doubt we'll get a better result. Should Chelsea not bother to turn up today then we can win, but with flappyhandski in goal, an untested CB partnership and a weaker attack/midfield i doubt we'll win. A draw would be a decent result too.

Chelsea to win with a 2 goal margin but there's still a chance we could win. Lets hope arshavin turns up today!

COME ON YOU GOONERS!!!!!
 
Only just noticed that it's 2 weeks until our next match....so what was he resting Berbatov and Evra for?? :confused:

So annoying. 2 weeks is too long. Not too fussed about the euro quilfiers. We all know what teams will make it and what teams won't. Quailfiers is all about the underdogs trying to make it.. I guess seeing Scotland finally make it to a big tournament is something to hope for... but we have Spain to look forward to... they could play their u16 team and still give us a whooping.

hope Liverpool lose today to add more humilation to their pathetic season. lol.
 
Liverpool team:
Reina
Carra, Soto, Skrtel, Johnson
Meireles, Gerrard, Poulsen, Cole
...........Kuyt
...................Torres

I wondered if it might line up more like a 4-3-3
ie:
........Poulsen
...Gerrard......Meireles
Kuyt...................Cole
...........Torres

But had a mate confirm they were running a 4-4-1-1 in training this week :(


Other news: Pitch inspection in half an hour. Pitch has been battered with heavy rain for about 4 days straight now.
