Arsenal v Swansea
The interesting thing about Arsenal right now, because of the frantic end to the transfer window that went on there - which in itself made a mockery of their summer transfer dealings to that point if you ask me - is no-one quite knows how the team is going to set up this weekend.
I think Mikel Arteta is a good signing for them, and Per Mertesacker will be fine, but while we can all guess at how they will settle down, we just don't know.
For a man previously reluctant to spend much at all, Wenger suddenly went out in a panic in the last few days of the transfer window and it will be interesting to see if his gamble works out.
Either way, though, I think the Gunners will have too much for a Swansea side who have also made a couple of acquisitions.
There's no problem with the way Brendan Rodgers' side play football, but Swansea's problem this season will be getting goals. It's a massive issue for them.
In Scott Sinclair, Nathan Dyer, Wayne Routledge and Danny Graham they have plenty of pace and talent up front, but they're realising that they won't get too many chances at this level and that it's imperative you take what comes your way. The other problem as well is that teams are going to find they can cut them up.
As long as they keep learning as they go, though, they'll have a chance of staying in the league.
Prediction: 2-0
Must win.
will win. . .and Lawro can do one. . .it was panic buying but we didnt do too bad. . .I think we have the base of a good squaf if we go out and add in Jan. . .Cahill and maybe a striker. . M'Vila would also be nice (same names I know but. . . cant think of anyone else at the mo)
Only fear is AW saying all is OK in Jan, whuch it may be but we all know the squad needs more
