No idea what's going to happen Sunday, hopefully Shami won't watch so we get back to winning ways (hopefully atpbx and Nickg don't watch either but for completely different reasons though). Given the way we performed against Chelsea in the 3 games late in the season last season I'd be tempted to go back to the Giggs/Carrick midfield partnership but Anderson has been so awesome this season I can't see him being dropped. I'd imagine we'll line up like this;

---------------De Gea---------------
Jones---Ferdinand---Evans---Evra
Nani---Carrick---Anderson---Young
---------------Rooney
------------------Hernandez

Subs: Lindegaard, Smalling, Fabio, Giggs, Park, Valencia, Berbatov

Fancy Chich to get a goal

:D

I hope we stay confident with two attacking wingers, drop one of them and we'll be very one dimensional.
 
Big match tonight Airbus - Aberystwyth. Not sure who to support...

Minute silence for the dead miners.

Rumours flying around that Fletcher will start - I cant see him partnering either of Anderson or Giggs in a 4-4-2 (in big EPL matches). Im seriously hoping you are 100% correct (although I could see Jones being in the middle of defence and Smalling being Left back too, especially after Evans' recent mistakes), any form of 4-3-3 would be a huge mistake
 
Hoping for a repeat of our performance away at Fulham last year this weekend.

We could even eclipse it with the form Nasri and Silva have been in. Balotelli a likely starter i think.
 
Don't fancy our chances on Saturday :(

Though a draw would be great!

ManU to stuff Chelski and fancy Spurs to get a draw/beat Pool though I can't really say why. Just a gut feeling.

I'm really not a fan of Fletcher. He's just... so very 'meh'.

If we continue our form in the league, we'll beat Chelsea quite comfortably. If not, it'll probably be a draw.
 
Quite looking forward to our meeting with Blackburn tomorrow. Kean doesn't know his ******** from his elbow and we really should be putting a few in the net against the likes of them.
 
With that in mind, I'm going for 1-0 to Blackburn.

I think its gonna be 1-1 in all honesty...without Wilshere we are going to struggle for creativity i think....dont Benni and Arteta are our messiahs tbh lol.

Kean is utter ****ing tripe and his sides are woefully un-organised and shocking in defence. Literally gives me hope of becoming a professional football manager from the hundreds of thousands of hours I put in to Football Manager.

If Arsenal don't turn them over (even if Blackburn score because Arsenal aren't great at that defending lark) it says more about Arsenal then it does Blackburn.

They've only played once or twice, give them a chance to fit in with the rest of the squad and the style of play that Wenger likes. I'm not saying they're going to be world beaters or anything but they could both work out to be handy editions to the squad. It's completely impossible that we'll draw with Blackburn, we're Arsenal which means we'll either hammer them or lose badly. :p
