0-3
1-2.
Little bit pub win.
Vardy and Mahrez wll score I suppose. That's just the way these things happen.
So Bif will need to get 3.
3-0 Ozil hat-trick.
Anything could happen in this match. Both of us had bad starts. We're low on players and probably confidence, they are an unknown quantity again this year but for different reasons. How will they cope with being the PL champions. I can't even call it.
You can't keep relying on him to bail us out with his hat tricksQuote:

All I can find out is that Wenger is 'ready to risk Koscelny,' nothing definite.Quote:

Why is he ready to "risk" him? Haven't we bought a CB yet? What's the hold up?Quote:

We wouldn't get anybody in in time to play now anyway. Even if we had bought somebody on the quiet, it would still be risky playing someone without a gelling in process.
We've got a few GHEL's already but it hasn't worked out.Quote:

I thought Holding was pretty good.
I wondered the same thing, I asked if he was injured on the injury thread.Quote:

A draw would stop the rot. (And it IS a rot. 1 game in and no significant transfer activity for a team who were 2nd last season. The teams in 4th and 6th have done more to try and win the league this season)
A defeat and the daggers would be out against Wenger and Gazidis. The atmosphere would be toxic ahead of the next home game. Maybe, just maybe, that's what we need?
I don't know why any fan would want a loss. It helps nothing and it will not change Gazidis and Wenger being here. If a win papers over the cracks, then that would mean losing again and again becomes more beneficial and that makes no sense at all. It just increases the misery and gloom around the club. I'm worried about today but as ever hope we win.
Win, lose or draw - it doesn't matter. We'll still need a striker and a centre back, Wenger will still be past it, the board will still be cunts and we'll all be miserable until we see tangible change.
I thought he was the more competent of the two.......Quote:

I think Chambers needs to go out on loan. He's never going to improve while he's relying on injuries to others to get a place in the team.Quote:

Hopefully with Cazorla in there we are a little more slicker in the final third.
3-1 Leicester Imo, at least that's what happened in my dream last night.
Would have picked Elneny over Coquelin but other than that have to say not the worst lineup
Same here.Quote:

I've never quite understood how players lacking match fitness are supposed to regain that by not playing.Quote:
