Sanchez, Cazorla and Coq were immense.

{Ed025's Note - some lovely champagne football dags, i dont know what more you could want..

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed025's Note - i really did G62...i ran upstairs to see if my crystal ball had been nicked.. :)

04 May 2015 23:08:04
Well happy Ed, and as you said, some Champagne football.

But, when 2nd half started, you knew we were going to take foot off pedal.

I'm not greedy, but would love us to just smash a team for 90 minutes.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 May 2015 23:25:37
Think you can add Ozil, Rambo and Kos as they were pretty awesome too
Some of Ozil's touche's are quite magestic

What this season could have been without those injuries at the start .......😞

Nice seeing Jack back also - he does add something to the squad

As long as we don't lose either of the next two games its 3rd place minimum for us and no CL qualifier :-)
OK I know we'd hope to beat Swansea at home and deffinately should beat the billion debt disasters away but we could have a couple of off days and still be OK.

For dags its literally anyone vs our defense rather than our own players, pfff get a life, and that battle has been won and over you could sign that striker in your 100 player list

In 33 Prem games, we have only failed to score in 3 of them.

2 v Chelsea. 1 v Soton.

(If we fail to score tonight, I'm going to get slaughtered, lol).

Guys, I have some clarification on the Ospina Oscar incident.

Most of you said it was a blatant penalty. But hasn't the ball been played before the clash? What do the football rule book say reg this incident? Just curious to know.

Thanks in advance.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

04 May 2015 19:13:03
To be honest, I wouldn't have been surprised if Michael Oliver gave a pen.

We got away with it but Ivanovich should have seen 2 yellows, so swings and mini roundabouts.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 May 2015 19:37:08
I wasn't sure either, Sen. What are the rules with playing advantage for penalties, anyone? Cause if the ball had gone in and he'd given a penalty which was then saved, people woulda gone mad. Are they allowed to wait and see if a goal is scored before pulling it back for a pen?

Agree0 Disagree0

04 May 2015 21:00:07
I think they play advantage, than wait to see if the team who have been 'fouled' gains aforementioned advantage.

If the ball went in, ref would have given a goal, if no advantage was gained, ref could blow for a pen.

But, I may be wrong.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 May 2015 16:31:10
So, who do we go with tonight?

Opsina or Szsezency
Bellerin or Debuchy
Gabriel or Mertesacker
Monreal or Gibbs
Walcott or Ramsey
Giroud or Welbeck

Im going for the first player in each position. On form Ospina, Bellerin, Monreal all pick themselves. I think Gabriel would be a better choice as we need a more aggressive and proactive defence against a Hull side fighting for their lives. I think Walcott needs to play as Hull play with 3 at the back and can cause trouble for the left sided CB and Left Mid/wing back. His pace scares teams and he's had plenty of time to recover, he needs these games to get his match sharpness and finishing back. And Giroud is a better option upfront and we might need that long option if we are under pressure.

Hull won't be easy, but we've gone away to Burnley, Palace and QPR and did the job, so i ex

Spot on Detroit.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 May 2015 17:21:14
Big sausage fingers hit submit too early.

.. So i expect another 3 points against Hull. And us to push on a beat Sunderland and hopefully secure 2nd place. Which would be an improvement on last season. Hopefully building towards greater things.

Ed, thanks for sending first post through.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - thought it cut off suddenly.}

04 May 2015 17:38:27
Swap Ramsey for Theo and I'm with you 100% Detroit mate.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 May 2015 17:55:52
Have to agree, would be great to see Gabriel get some more game time, Debuchy is injured so will definitely be Bellerin.

Want to see us as strong a possible, it's a game a week now so no need for a lot of rotation.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 May 2015 11:56:01
Today night we have a game against hull city away, I have gone thru most of the post today, strangely no one is talking about that game, could it be a case of overconfy or a hiding fear.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

04 May 2015 12:29:58
I'm never too over confident against anyone, well I was against Manchester United in our home game and look where that got us :-)
I'm expecting a very tough game against a Hull side that has a very tough run in so are fighting for survival, we should get back to winning ways but it won't be easy.
I'm going Hull 0 Arsenal 7

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed025's Note - you are flattering hull there G62..

04 May 2015 12:52:53
It doesn't pay to make wild predictions Ed as they always come back to bite you on the chin, I'm sticking with 7 0 and anything else would be a nice bonus mate :-)

Agree0 Disagree0

04 May 2015 13:32:09
Every game is tough and Hull will be no push overs. We have to be at the top of our game and be ruthless.

All our remaining games are winnable including the Cup Final but none are a given. It would be crazy to simply assume we are going to walk over everyone here on in.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 May 2015 13:38:43
I'm going to be a bit more carefree and flamboyant, throw caution to the wind, and say 1-2.

Jeez, life in the fast lane is skin on your teeth crazy.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 May 2015 14:12:01
Well we don't talk about it since there is nothing to talk about, since it seems very strange. We are on a good run, and no injurys to worry about, so that is why.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 May 2015 15:26:54
I'm going for 2-0, and hope my hangover clears before kickoff.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 May 2015 09:35:35
Just looking on the club page and looking at the training photos, they are all out there, bar Debuchy.

The Ox is back and even Diaby who I thought had gone awol again.

Wouldn't it be great to go a season with this few injuries, with money to spend and quality already in the squad.

Just to add some top quality in the window and keep everyone on the pitch. Is that to much to ask for. Lol. :-)

{Ed025's Note - i have a feeling next season will be your year red dog...and i am known as mystic ed..

04 May 2015 09:57:59
Well that's good enough for me then ed, are your mystic powers saying league and champions league or just the Emirates Cup. Lol. :-)

P.s any chance we could have John Stones in the summer please. :-)

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed025's Note - im sorry red dog stones is going nowhere mate, my crystal ball is saying a league and FA cup double, but alas european success will not happen next season, beaten by barcelona at the semi final stage im afraid, and out of the league cup to a championship side after playing mainly reserves, there is also in the mist 2 major signings coming in, 1 of whom will blow your socks off.. :)

04 May 2015 10:53:22
You don't mean Luis GUSTavo do you Ed? :-)

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed025's Note - the mist has not cleared yet G62, but the runes are saying he is not from these shores mate :)

04 May 2015 11:10:08
He's not Welsh is he? :-)
Just think it might be nice to have a lovely bunch Taffodils on show next season :-)

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed025's Note - i will light a jos stick and crack a quail egg...then i will let you know mate.. :)

04 May 2015 11:18:40
Now that would be a season and a half ed and am now wearing some very loose socks in anticipation. :-)

Now are you sure we can't have Stones?

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed025's Note - im sure mate..

04 May 2015 13:06:01
A signing that will blow our socks off . Could the worlds best striker be signing? I mean , Bendtner would be a revelation at our club , but I'm not sure we could afford him .

Agree0 Disagree0

04 May 2015 19:53:52
One which will blow our socks off?! You've got to give us his name ed! Or at least a clue!

Can't believe you're taunting us this early, the summer window isn't nearly open yet!

Anyone else think that's bad management. You miss a pen you're then bottom of the list

Agree0 Disagree0

04 May 2015 14:15:59
I don't agree we are in a results business, you have the chance and you dint take it so back to the drawing board, i think its good management. I do not think Ozil is our no 2 pen taker anymore after last season, its now Santi and then Giroud and then probably ozil.
