Lawro predictsArsenal v Aston Villa
I would count myself as an Arsene Wenger fan. What he's done over the years as Arsenal manager is absolutely outstanding.
But I was amazed the other night against Bayern Munich, when he chose to go with Mikel Arteta as his holding midfielder. The Spaniard should have been responsible for Toni Kroos, who played further forward.Should Wenger go?
"OK, here's the Wenger thing. If he makes £50m for shareholders, him getting the boot is never going to be an issue.
"It only starts getting serious if the crowds go from 60,000 to about 45,000 - then if you are running a club you'd look at it differently.
"But as things stand, if you're a shareholder or on the board or both and guaranteed Champions League revenue then why would you think of sacking your manager?"
He's not that type of player and it was a strange thing to do. No wonder Bayern beat them so easily. It wasn't really about how good Bayern were, it was about how poorly Arsenal performed.
But it's back to the league now. The Gunners are at home and will have more of the ball on Saturday.
Villa have younger players, but they're not that young. Some of the first-team players are in their early twenties. In my opinion, if you're good enough to play in the first team at 18, 19, 20, then you're good enough full-stop.
The more experienced higher wage earners haven't done it. Villa boss Paul Lambert got a performance from winger Charles N'Zogbia in the second half against West Ham, but the manager should expect displays like that on a regular basis.
Lawro's prediction: 2-0
no Ramsey u mad bro? All defence hanging on for 44mins, then let one in as Cheesy punches into his own goal rather than catch it under no pressure. We go for them in the second half miss a sitter, they go up the other end and score from a deflection off Kos face. Lose 2 nil, general tutting breaks out which results in a cup of tea being spilled...all hell breaks loose and Emirates is burnt to the ground.
Society is now one polished horde
Formed by two mighty tribes, the bores and the bored.
"After all, it was the Gunners’ goalkeeper who started the move that culminated in Thomas’ crowning glory. It was Lukic who, in injury time, decided to throw the ball out to Lee Dixon rather than lump it long..."
We lack little bit spark on our match.
It's all falling apart.1224: TRAVEL NEWS - Arsenal v Aston Villa (1500 GMT)
