Will probably be a similar team to the Community Shield game. Koscielny little bit doubt, so Monreal at CB? :lol:

Palace were excellent in the second half of last season, but hopefully we can catch them while they're cold. They're likely to be quite disciplined though, so some ammunition off the bench might be needed.

Hopefully:

Szczesny

Debuchy
Chambers
Koscielny
Gibbs

Arteta
Ramsey
Wilshere

Oxlade
Sanchez
Cazorla

Subs: Ospina, Monreal, Flamini, Rosicky, Campbell, Giroud, Sanogo


Prediction: 2-0 (Giroud, Ramsey).


Come on Arrrrrrrrsnil :scarf:.

Palace are a good side. This is a fairly rough test to start off with. 6-0

Must win if we are to stay in the title chase.

Wenger needs to go if we don't win this.

3-0 Ozil hat trick.

Moss is the ref. We won the 3 games he reffed last season, scoring 7 and conceding none. R Madley is the 4th official, one of the cunts who played for the gypos during their 6-3 robbery last season.

MS' team is too small. Think Wenger will go with the same team that started yesterday. Maybe Giroud instead of Sanogo though if he proves his fitness is up to scratch.


business Palace have done this summer:



InChris Kettings (Blackpool) Free
Fraizer Campbell (Cardiff) Undisclosed
Brede Hangeland (Fulham) Free

Out
Neil Alexander Released
Kagisho Dikgacoi (Cardiff City) Free
Daniel Gabbidon Released
Dean Moxey Released
Jonathan Parr (Ipswich Town) Free
Aaron Wilbraham Released
Jose Campana (Sampdoria) Undisclosed
Jack Hunt (Nottingham Forest) Loan

http://www.premierleague.com/en-gb/news/news/2014-15/summer-transfer-window-2014.html


Hangeland :lol:

Remember pining for him in the days when there was a Mertesacker-shaped hole in defence. Maybe we can get him on loan now.

Very very poor.

We can't continue with having to start a turd like Sanogo.

He's so valuable defending corners and FKs.

To be fair Palace have had no intention of making this a football match, which is understandable and part of English football. Up to us to break them down.

But we've had NOTHING up top, Sanogo is absolutely hopeless.

Ramsey and Alexis a bit sloppy with the final ball. Santi and Jack are back to being pretty shit. Kos a bit shaky from time to time but made up for it with the goal. Chambers and Debuchy good, bar a couple of iffy moments. Debuchy 1.3million times better than Sagna going forward.

Taking off Sanogo should transform things. I think it was arrogant of us to give them the 2 man advantage and we've paid for it in that first half.

It scares me that our manager thinks Sanagoo will be a good striker.

Team balance also needs adjustment. Useless lampost off aka Sanagoo, Oxlade on, Sanchez moved up front.

It actually worked out well for us, if it was 0-0 we would have walked out at half time and carried on playing the same useless, laboured style. Now we've had the wake up call and we know we need to fucking play.

He hasn't earned a bath.

Spray of lynx and a walk home.

Defending deep is one thing, it's for us to break them down not to expect them to come out and play, but I abhor time wasting and this referee is too weak to punish Speroni for it, he's also a total clown for the way he handled the vanishing spray.
Marking at set pieces is always a concern when Mertesacker doesn't play and Koscielny is at fault there. Cazorla and Wilshere not content with average performances seem to want to put us under pressure in our final third. Chambers was good until his booking for impetuosity, Debuchy also impressive.
Ramsey trying too hard to do too much, Sanchez looks like he needs time to adapt to the physicality of English football...Sanogo winning the ball well but then messing himself in posession.
Not a terrible performance but not a terribly convincing one, typical first game rustiness on show

Our anticipation is way too slow. We're not seeing the runs for clever incisive balls, not anticipating their mistakes and clearances. They're getting on the end of all their clearances and we're allowing them time to miscontrol too often without nicking it. Lacking a little sharpness I suspect...

Niall_Quinn
