Right i cant wait i'm spurs fan so flame me if you want i dont care
what do you think the score will be :D

i tell you one thing if we get beat by arsenal kids and we have a whole first team out i will hang myself
 
Classic derby match, fantastic for us neutrals :)
Nothing in it if you ask me but Arsenal will be on a high after beating the Mancs. It's a derby and a cup semi final so god knows which way it will go, hopefully it'll be a 7 goaler with huge amounts of noise from the crowd :)
Good luck to both.
 
I have a sneaking suspicsion its gonna be a 1-1 thriller with plenty of action but lacking in the finishing dept.

Tho that does depend on how Robinson plays and wether or not he's in a flapping mood like he has been recently

im a spurs fan btw
 
We (Arsenal) will be playing mostly the young guns again, I would expect it to be the same team that faced Liverpool last round so I'm really looking forward to seeing them again.

I expect the game to be fairly open and flowing end to end, wouldn't be supprised if more than a few goals were scored at both ends.

Score: 4-2 to Arsenal.
 
I've got my ticket for the game, so hopefully it isn't snowed off. :)

We should be OK at home. I reckon 1-1 or 2-1 to Spurs. I'm worried about the away leg though...
 
I'd expect Arsene to have a starting lineup like so:

....................Almunia.......................

Hoyte......Toure.....Senderos.....Traore

Walcott....Diaby......Fab..............Hleb

...........Baptista.....Aliadiere..............

Look like a very strong team, I'll be having a few quid on Arsenal! Come on you Gooners!

i think the arsenal teenagers are better than spurs first squad

2-0 :eek:

....................Almunia.......................

Hoyte......Toure.....Senderos.....Traore

Walcott....Diaby......Fab..............Hleb

...........Baptista.....Aliadiere..............

If that is indeed the starting 11 then theres not many teenagers in there! I count 4 :p

Spurs likely 11

........................Robinson.......................

Chimbonda...Dawson.....Gardner.....Ekotto

Lennon......Zokora......Huddlestone.....Malbranque

................Berbatov........Defoe..............

I'm expecting a Spurs win, though it won't be easy a high scoring game for the neutral looks likely. Spurs are not the same defensively without Ledley, but bambi on ice Gardner will need all his concentration to deal with the front two. I imagine Dawson will cover Baptista with Gardner on Aliadiere. Down the flanks both teams are arguably stronger down the right, so that will be interesting to see which is more productive on the night.

After all these predictions of goals galore it sods law that its a 1-0 (to Spurs! :p)

Noticed that ITV have put the highlights on at just before midnight! :(
