Arsenal v West Bromwich Albion - Saturday 5 November - 15:00 GMT

so basing on one performance you are not going cos they didnt win? you ignoring the performance against chelsea then which was exceptional? thought so.
the performance on tuesday wasnt great but they still created chances, played as a team and fought to the final whistle, thats enough for me. i want to see the team fight every minute regardless of the result. but for you, you just want to moan about everything, strange how quiet you were after chelsea as the team had proved you wrong. 9 wins in the last 11 games and you dont want to go watch because one performance wasnt great

Tbf 2 performances, both games ive been to. Marseille one and the Swansea one a couple of months back. Both were awful to watch and i have better things to do than watch boring ass shit

You cannot yet say Arsenal are back as the team we used to know but they have started to play well and they are on a really good run.

I still think they have got innate problems defensively, though, whatever their form suggests. Their left-back Andre Santos is a good footballer but can be got at and I am totally unconvinced by Per Mertesacker in the centre, so having Thomas Vermaelen back fit is a big plus for them.

West Brom rolled over very easily against Liverpool last week. Baggies boss Roy Hodgson was unhappy with the penalty decision that led to the Reds' first goal but I think he will probably be just as unhappy about the way his side played.

Injured striker Shane Long, who does the work of two men, is a big miss for them at Emirates Stadium and I cannot see them getting anything from the Gunners.

Prediction: 2-0

Ollie mate, you're not new around here!
Crippps lives in a world of extremes, he's only happy when we blow teams out the water or he's posting crap!
Take his posts the same way as your fish n chips. . .with a fist full of salt

Come on Cripps, massive win against Chelsea, sub standard performance in the CL, kinda if expected (at least we didnt lose)
Although we would all love to win in the same emphatic fashion, it just ain't going to happen. . .Chelsea had it happen to them, as did Utd. . .and Citeh are going to go through it.
what can be said is that we had a fucking awful start and have just been getting better as our run has indicated, we may still be a few players away from becoming a force but what is sure the team needs the fans and it may be a bit choice for me to be saying that while living far away in Japan but respect to your brother for taking the time to go and support the team.

I would have bitten your hand off if you had offered me your ticket no matter what their midweek performance was like - try and make sure you're around on GW so we optimists can be balanced out by your logic!
Also you can start the match reaction thread which Ive been doing in your absence

Another 0-0 IMO
