Arsenal vs Crystal Palace, New Year's Day, 4pm. SS1.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Let's win.

[Herbert_Chapman's_Zombie]

Yes....lets

[McNamara That Ghost...]

No Mesut.

[A Gunner]

Starts: Cech, Bellerin, Gabriel, Koscielny, Monreal, Elneny, Xhaka, Iwobi, Alexis, Lucas, Giroud
Subs: Ospina, Maitland-Niles, Mustafi, Coquelin, Ramsey, Reine-Adelaide, Oxlad-Chamberlain

Is this the most double surname ever?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Oxlad.

[Herbert_Chapman's_Zombie]

No Mesut.

Bit concerning, on one hand I'm happy for him to be dropped, his attitude on the pitch was deplorable against Man City but hope it's not going to be one of those long term injuries or a Wenger injury.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

He hasn't been dropped; officially at least he is ill.

[Gooner23]

Fuck, looks like Giroud up top again wasn't a one off.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

We'll know if that's true when Theo and Mesut aren't dead and Ox is fully alive.

Crystal Palace: Hennessey; Kelly, Dann, Tomkins, Ward; Cabaye, Flamini, Puncheon; Townsend, Zaha; Benteke.
Subs: Speroni, Fryers, Husin, Mutch, Sako, Lee, Campbell.

Agent Flamini.

[Marc Overmars]

Should be a comfortable win, though our games with Palace have generally been fairly close.

2-1.
