The chance of new signings, especially with international fixtures, is -25%. What with the inevitable injuries, late arrivals and little bit fatigue, it will probably be a slog of a first game.

Anyway, hopefully the team is:

Szczesny

Sagan
Mertesacker
Koscielny
Gibbs

Arteta
Ramsey
Rosicky

Theo
Giroud
Cazorla


3-1 (Theo, Giroud, BFG, Benteke).

Come on Arsenal :scarf:.

Not a single 3-0 win last season. Hopefully you've sorted your life out this year.

Villa are a bit shit anyway, so yeah, 3-0. Atmosphere will get ugly if this is anything other than a home win.

by renewing your season ticket, you are allowing them to think the fans are happy. by paying that much money, they love it, they dont care if you dont turn up or not, you paid them 1000 quid into the bank so allowing the rot to continue, so you are doing more to help that, then i am, by going to one game and cheering for the team. well done

So you believe everything that Wenger says? Are you fcuking mad? Robson talks the truth and he has no grinds to axe with wenger, apart from him being in the job paying 7 million per year for coming 4th. Do you really think that if Wilshire was a fit player and not injury prone, he would have signed for United or City, the fact he is a fcking cripple at a tender age puts off a lot of buyers.

So you think he has an agenda by stating the obvious and facts that Wenger cannot be trusted to buy decent players, has not got a clue about tactics, was pissed when Bould took defensive traning and has not won anything for 9 years. So he was sacked from Arsenal TV, so what, he's got the balls that most reporters dont so they dont get banned from the press conferences.

wengers only ever banned one paper from his press conferences and thats the sun last year because they made up a story and he was livid. fair play to him, he takes so much shit of them, im amazed he didnt ban them sooner.

stating the obvious is saying wenger was pissed at bould for taking defensive training. yeah im sure thats true. i mean its not like our defence massively improved last season is it? why would wenger be pissed at that. wenger does buy decent players too.

Arsenal v Aston Villa

The Luis Suarez saga is having a similar effect on Arsenal's summer too. We are waiting to see what happens there, and the Gunners have not made a significant signing yet, despite supposedly having £70m to spend.
It appears they missed out on Gonzalo Higuain, who joined Napoli from Real Madrid instead and, although Wenger has claimed his side can win the title with or without Suarez, I don't think they can with what he has got in his squad at present.

Benteke asked to leave Aston Villa but ended up signing a new contract lasting until 2017
Even so, they are still capable of beating Aston Villa at home. I do think Villa will have a better season than last year, though, and they did brilliantly to keep Christian Benteke.
They put a £25m price tag on him and nobody who wanted him was prepared to pay that, so they kept hold of him and he got a new contract - everybody is happy.
Villa are a well-run club under Paul Lambert and I see them staying out of trouble this season. Their younger players will be better for the experience they have picked up and, in Benteke, they have got goals in them.
Lawro's prediction: 2-0


Hope Lawro is right

I'm actually a lot more worried about us playing at home than playing away from home at the moment, we did ok at the back end of last season away from home because we sat deep and played counter attack...but there is no way we will do that at home and our midfield will give about as much protection to our back four as a condom full of holes.
Draw or Villa win....three points is never certain when your playing with Ramsey it's like playing most of the game with ten men or really nine men because of the way he brings down the quality of those around him (and there isn't a great deal of quality going around to begin with)

It's obvious to me that since beating Citeh in a friendly match, Wenger in his own deluded mind thought to himself; Actually if we can beat Citeh with the current squad then why should I go out and waste money on transfer because of the sake of it? Does he not realise that was an exhibition match and should not be measured over a season of 50 plus competetive games. Yes we may be good enough for 4th place just about, but who gives a fcuk about that apart from him and his cronies. I just really hope and pray we have really bad season with the spuds finishing above us. Then he'll eat his fckun humbile french frog eating pie.

Arsenal v Aston Villa (1500 BST)

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger: "We want to start well at home with a win against a team who are strong on the counter-attack, so we need a good defensive performance. Pre-season has gone well - the only really bad thing is we got some injuries, the last one to Mikel Arteta just before the season starts. Thomas Vermaelen and Nacho Monreal we could get used to the idea, but the most recent one is a blow because we're a bit short in midfield. We have vital games coming up, next week we have the Champions League qualifier, so we hope not to get more injuries."

LINE-UPS - Arsenal v Aston Villa (1500 BST)

Arsenal: Szczesny, Sagna, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Gibbs, Ramsey, Rosicky, Walcott, Wilshere, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Giroud. Subs: Podolski, Cazorla, Fabianski, Sanogo, Jenkinson, Frimpong, Gnabry.

Aston Villa: Guzan, Lowton, Vlaar, Baker, Luna, El Ahmadi, Westwood, Delph, Weimann, Benteke, Agbonlahor. Subs: Okore, Clark, Bacuna, Helenius, Steer, Bowery, Tonev.
