I’ve sacked off that game in fairness, just glad we have an eight point cushion on Chelsea

Sorry to be all "NQ", but this is a terrible attitude. This is exactly the sort of game we need to be standing up in if we want to push on.
It will be difficult - our first big test this season. I'd be OK with a point but we have to get something IMO.

I think it's a "must not lose" kind of game. A point up there is a good result, 3 points would be a huge statement. Personally, I think they will put us under immense pressure in large parts of the game, it's how we react to that and compete. If for example Partey and Elneny are the only absentees then I think we are good enough to go there and at least get a point if we play well. Without Ode and Zinchenko I don't see us getting anything from the game.

For all the early season mocking of United, I watched their game against Liverpool and United were really good in spells, very quick on the counter / transition and strong in Midfield too surprisingly. It's going to be a very difficult game.

100% agree with this.

If we really have anything about us or any aspirations of proving our worth, this is one game to do it in.

Well it would be a terrible attitude if I was a player or a coach and I’m not for a second suggesting they should sack it off that would be appalling

As I’m a largely armchair fan who isn’t quite solipsistic enough to believe that what I personally think has any bearing on the outcome of the game, I can’t see it matters.

I have written off the game because I don’t think we are in a position to get anything from it. So anything we do get is a bonus

Fair enough.

exactly

we want the players to go out and do their best, but looking at it as a fan (though not an armchair one ) this game is pretty much lost already

i'm more worried about the effect it will have if it's a big defeat - Arteta's made the mistake in the past of trying to defend in games like this and just bringing the other team on to us, who then win 4-0

we need to keep this one tight and if we do lose, it should just be by one goal

Some absolute fuckin [silly people] up in here, man.


Same people were laughing at Man U being bottom of the league last week now they're foregoing the game??

Fannies.

About the injuries....taken from Arteta's press conference....

on Ramsdale and Odegaard’s fitness…
Those two are being assessed, we will see more tomorrow. Hopefully they will be able to train with the team. Unfortunately with Alex [Zinchenko] that’s still not the case, he missed two games and has not been able to train with the team yet.

on Zinchenko’s fitness...
Again after missing two games and not being able to be ready yet to train with the team, unfortunately, that is the situation that we have.

Sounds like Zinchenko is definitely out and Ramsdale and Ode are touch and go.

We are going up there with many key players missing. United away regardless of form and who we have available is always a tough game. They have won 3 games on the bounce too...they are 5th now.
