    Jenks to replace sagna and wilshere to replace rosicky.

    How many times have we seen arsenal youngsters beat the team in the carling cup only for our first team struggle against the same team in the league?

    This game will say alot about our challenge. Every game against the mid to lower league teams are must win as I think we may struggle against the top teams. We also need to win these games and stay in contention until we get players back and strengthen more in jan.

    Wont be easy but I think we'll sneak a win 2-1. Giroud and sub rosicky with the goals...

    We didn't beat them over 90 mins, we drew. Also: only Sinclair, Mulumbu and Sessegnon started in the Carling Cup game that also started against Man Utd in the league. They didn't play their best team.

    Well only jenks will play tomorrow that started v west brom. Of the west brom team 3 or 4 will start. Sinclair injured but would have started. My point remains. Considering we beat them (in the end) with a very weakened team I reacon the first 11 will not roll them over as many would expect.

    Jenks and Mertesacker and Arteta. But we seem to agree - the whole point is that the WBA team will be much tougher to face because they'll be playing the best team. So the potential "how did our youngsters beat them and yet the first team struggled?" question is void. It should be a completely different match with mostly different players on both teams.

    Not sure what I expect will happen. We've got to drop points at some stage, I suppose.

    West Brom are a good side these days.

    0-3.
    NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.

    If we play like we did v Napoli, West Brom don't have a hope in hell of getting anything other that a fucking kicking.

    If we ponce around, we may get a bit of a wake up call though.

    We're due an arrogant lazy performance at some point. Let's hope it's not today.
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
