Manchester City v Arsenal, 20:00 BST (26/04, BT Sport)

[HCZ_Reborn]

Arsenal: Ramsdale; White, Holding, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Partey, Xhaka, Odegaard; Saka, Jesus, Martinelli.
Subs: Turner, Tierney, Smith Rowe, Nketiah, Kiwior, Trossard, Jorginho, Vieira, Nelson.

As expected.

COME ON YOU GUNNERS!!!

Arteta continues to play the fiddle on the sinking ship

I say 4-1 to Man City, Haaland with at least two of them.

It would be a gigantic shock if Arsenal got a draw here but it will most likely be a comfortable win for Man City.

No other result is possible.

Arteta's just completely frozen into his one-tactic, one-team approach - reminds me of that saying about doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results being a sign of madness

My belief here is that we should have experimented with a new system before tonight. It was spoken about that we should have changed things up against Southampton

But on a larger scale, Arteta knows that our system is dependent on holding a high defensive line. That’s fine as long as you’ve got at least one defender who is comfortable on the ball and has pace.

We should have had a plan B worked upon in training. Not just in the event of injuries but to squeeze the life out of games away at the big sides.

It’s possible to get a win. We’ve got the attacking talent and even without Saliba, it’s possible that we could close out the game.

It’s just very unlikely because we are playing a one dimensional system which City are well aware of and confidence is rock bottom

Patrick asks Captain Black what he’s done to lift the players spirits and convince them the title is not over and he just cannot answer

Of course it’s hard when you’ve got no personality or charm

Wow...can't really think of what else to say.

Just hope Vieira won't be the first impact sub...or is that asking to much from a 8m a year manager?

£8.5m apparently

I'm not sure how much we'd have to pay for a manager who knew how to do more than field one set of players or knew another way of playing...
