I'm not sure, and I think the bookies will reflect that tomorrow.
4-1 loss
Wigan are the sort of team we struggle against these days. Organised, commited, tactically switched on and have some good forward players.
We dont have any match winners, we dont have any real threat, no confidence and no plan from the manager so i dont expect us to stroll this. If Wigan beat us it will be because they wanted it more and wil deserve it.
Giroud is the worst strker wenger has signed IMO, he really is poor and cannot be first choice anymore. How can the manager ply him for 2 fucking seasons in a row even though it was evident from day one that he was limited.
Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalacanthearyouimshitt ingabrick just remembered last Arsenal match I went to at Wembley was when we were using it for chumps league matches...hmmm
I'd go with your team too MS, some pace upfront and legs in the midfield.
Really hope Arteta doesn't play
How quickly we've forgotten Jeffers! :d
It's quite incredible that it wasn't too long ago half our fans were kidding themselves we could easily do without Walcott too. Interestingly I've almost forgotten what Gnabry looks like from a time when folk were saying he should play every week! Anyway no wild cards like Sanogo for me..... I don't think Giroud is the second coming, but he is easily the best we have. Sanogo can run around and make a nuisance of himself....but I could do that too and my left footed attempts would be better than Sanogo's that was heading for the corner flag the other day!
--------------Szczesny--------------
Sagna-----Merkyl------KOS-----Gibbs
--------Arteta-----Ramsey-----------
Oxlade--------Rosicky---------Cazorla
-----------Olivier Giroud--------------
i think giroud is in the team more for his defending at corners than for his striking ability... as we don't concede many goals from corners nowadays. maybe he should be 4th choice CB.
gnabry is injured I think at the moment and we don't really have much choice around the team for Saturday. Not sure if Ramsey will start though as Wenger might still want to ease him into the game and if Ramsey is the difference between beating Wigan and not then that is a very sad state of affairs. We have a good record after each spanking, so we will win and everything will be forgotten and Wenger will sign a new contract as we sneak 4th place.
Going to this.
2-1 Wigan
