A great chance to pull a gap on the chasing pack. A must win game.

0-3

I don't care if this is one of our away day pub specials. Just get the 3 points then we can sit back and watch our rivals slug it out. Even though they're 2nd bottom Burnley have got results against a few of the top sides this season so I'm not taking this for granted.

1-2.

Probably more worried for this than I was for the Liverpool game (easy to say in hindsight though). Burnley are the classic "raise it up against the big teams" side and they do actually play good attacking football and aren't a side who'll simply just bend over for you.

Mark my words, it's going to be a fight and you've got to hope Wenger and the players don't get complacent here.

0 - 1, 1 - 2, 0 - 2 ....... whatever, I'll just take a win no matter the score. Keep it calm in the first and don't conceed and hope that our quality is enough to score goals when we inevitably create chances which we should do as Burnley's defence has been a bit shit this year.

With the Manc Derby on at the same time, it's imperative we make ground on both our rivals for 2nd to 4th place.

Hmm. They did beat City at home and then draw with Spurs. They've won very few games all season though so we really shouldn't lose there.
With Chelsea next (who will come for a draw, and get it IMO), we do need to win this one.

Burnley are a good side at home and have covered more miles than any other team in the league (i think) so we should expect a typical FA cup style clash and with this being a 5:30 kick off, a couple of cunts in the commentary team hoping tiny Burnely beat big bully Arsenal.

1-2. Classice wenger style sitting back after getting two goals ala Palace and Leicester.

They've only scored one in five games.

And their only win in ten is the 1-0 over Citeh. Citeh :haha:.

They've conceded the most headed goals and the most goals from corners. We have to target those weaknesses with Bif/Welbz/BFG/Gabriel, etc.

Or alternatively, play it like a training session and hand them their end-of-season boost.

If we control their early bluster and play it professionally, it should be about 0-3. Nervy, edgy, annoying 1-2 otherwise.

Burnley's best player - the whiny, bitchy, precious crowd - will take over soon if Dean continues to to allow them to kick, punch, elbow, scythe and trip at will. Which he will.

Just play a bit better FFS and score a few more past a limited side. A five-minute burst will do.

Same old little team's crowd, always crying.

Gotta start putting some possession and penetration together. The pub game we're being dragged into suits them and this shithead of a ref. If they equalise, by fair means or foul, we'll have their fans, the ref and the commentators whipping up a frenzy and our boys will need to show character.
