You can name 12 subs?! :blink:

Exactly. Pace, work rate and some height should it be needed later in the game. No one’s expecting miracles but when you consider we lost one of our other highest scorers (Micki) and Wellbeck is still only one behind, it shows how bad our options are. It’s absurd to think a 19 year old kid with next-to-no experience would be a better option. No one expected a thing from him when he came on against Leicester after another lengthy lay off and he even managed to nab a goal.Quote:

It’s not officially the end of the season yet. Serie A are still playing matches, same with France.

Bergkamp would've had a fun time getting there if he was still around.
Yes if he's fit to play a part i'd be happy to see him there, though Emery will have to bear extra time in nind when looking at players who aren't 100% fitQuote:

me too, even though the club e-mailed ST holders this week to inform us that if Arsenal win, our ticket prices will go up - despite the fact of course that the club will have a significantly greater income if we qualify for the Champions League....Quote:

It has noise so it's not going to fool anybody that it is us. :ninja:
However it could just be testing the acoustics.
The take of one of our Arsenal supporters on Redcafe about Mkhitaryan:
:blink:Quote:
They're absolutely right btw. This has nothing to do with Mkhitaryan being in danger, it's a personal decision i.e. he hates Azerbaijan.
Armenia competed in the Azerbaijan Eurovision, proudly displaying their flag. They were all granted visas and nothing happened.
Same with the European games held in Baku, Azerbaijan. The Armenian athletes weren't attacked at all and they were never in danger.
It's just a shame Mkhitaryan and his family made the selfish decision play political games and boycott the most important match of our season.
I mean just :blink:
:wacko:
It’s always easy to make a decision for someone else when you’ll never have to make it yourself in your entire life.
This is interesting from Emery:
"I speak about Petr a lot but above all he is a great man and a great professional. His behaviour in his year with us has been amazing.
"I want to do something important with him in his last match. This was my conversation with him - I told him 'I want to do something important with you in the last moment in you career, playing or not playing'."
"He can start or not start, I have to decide, but he deserves trust because his career says to us he is a gentleman," he said.
"Really, how can we not believe in him?"
i guess that last bit does make it sound like he'll play but who knows?
Maybe he won't start him after all????? :unsure:

Wankers.
Match day. :sick:
Sarri to Juve is gathering momentum.
FFS we can’t lose this, not with their best player and manager ready to do one.
Come on Arsenal. :pray: :pray:
5am kick off over here. Got such a busy day at work, I really hope this doesnt go to extra time.
:sick: indeed.
It seems a bit cruel expecting me to work.
Haven't been this nervous for a match since the 2014 Cup final.
Same here, if it goes to penalties, I will miss my train to work! So hopefully the boys have it sewn up in normal time :pray:Quote:

I wouldn't say that myself, its still a major trophy even if it is in the CL's shadow.Quote:

Fuck me! I'm getting nervous now!
COYG!! :scarf::scarf::scarf:
Fair point but i'm not sure i could say those recent FA Cup wins did that, in terms of the league anywayQuote:

All this talk about Chelsea missing b-teamers like Hudson-Odoi and Loftus-Figo who've played about 12 senior matches between them. Only Kante is essential to their team and he'll probably end up starting.
We're missing Holding, Bellerin, Ramsey, Mkhitaryan and Welbz has just returned to training. Three of them have missed over half the season too.
We've only really got Iwobi as a viable bench option, assuming Ozil starts.
Still, if Auba and Laca can keep their recent European form going, we should be ok. Just put someone on Azar and they're completely blunt.
5-0.

They don't have the ability to win the league, desire is an issue with our lot IMO but quality is a bigger one in terms of us being champions.Quote:
