    The Arsenal v Man Siteh, Sunday 8 October 2023

    OK, let's get on with it

    Saka is a doubt and while we could in theory on our day make a good game of it, I expect Arteta and / or VAR will contrive to mess it up for us

    0-6 Haaland double hatter

    The one thing Arteta needs to get right is to start both Rice and Partey. That’s a non negotiable

    Beaten home and away for 6 seasons straight.

    Also, City haven’t lost back to back PL games for 4 years.

    In short: Us.

    I don’t know what to expect, I’d be happier if Martinelli was fit because his pace but I’m hoping we start Trossard instead

    No Rodri and Stones gives us a good chance against their defence, but we have to be able to make chances and take them

    Shame Timber is injured as he was excellent when we played them in the community shield.

    White worries me, against most sides at home he is good at the attacking overlap with Saka but he can’t hack a pacey winger

    Rice is really going to need to help him out there

    Seeing as its the only thing that has worked before and you've had the gall, to tell him to do errr.... the "only thing that has worked before".... he's definitely not going to play both of them now

    Usually.

    I’m laughing at the idea we might actually be able to make and take chances.
    Not our forte so far

    we have scored goals, our problem at home is more a defensive one as unlike when we play away we haven't kept a clean sheet yet and are very unlikely to do so today

    I thought you were laughing at how obvious a statememt it was, kind of like saying we will only win if we score a goal or two

    I also hear the Pope is Catholic...
