    I think we'll end up seeing Toure-Gilberto. It's too big a fixture to risk Song or Hoyte back there.

    Here's my starting XI:

    ------------------------------------------------"Here's a big match for you"------------------------------------------------
    "No I'm not related to the Williams sisters" --- "Habib" --- "Who's the skipper now?! I'm not bitter" --- "Cuntly who?"
    "Fine, I'll shoot" --- "Thanks to Mr. Wenger..." --- "Glad I stayed instead of going to Lyon" --- "Who wants to party in Prague??"
    ------------------------------"I'm THE man now" -----------------------------"Togo for the ACN!"------------------------


    *Key: The expression goes between Players' First and Last name.

    3-2 to the Arsenal. RvP and Ade with one each. Eduardo with the winner at the death to break Scum hearts. :D

    Sagna back.

    Gallas, Senderos, Eboue and Lehmann all out.

    The worrying thing:

    :eek:

    If he plays at CB we WILL lose.

    As an aside- I think we all now know why Sagna was brought in.

    Simply- Eboue is ALWAYS ********ING INJURED. He has shown no desire to play. Period.

    I watch Gilberto, Clichy, Fab and especially Kolo and I think, those guys WANT to be out there, regardless of any injury. Eboue, on the other hand, is perfectly happy only playing when he is 100%. Which is almost never.

    Oh come on. What evidence whatsoever do you have of this? Some players are more injury-prone than others. Why do you have to accuse Eboue? This was the same thing my friend said about Henry the last couple years- "He's injured, which means he doesn't want to play and thus is a p*ssy."

    Just because somebody is injured doesn't mean he doesn't have the desire to play.

    I meant I'd rather see Hoyte than Song, and I really do think Hoyte might be a decent fill-in at CB.

    :confused:

    If I'm correct about what you're talking about, then my situation's bad too. I have to watch the game on the internet (probably hungover), at 730 AM. No bars 'round campus open earlier than 11. :(

    Well Diarra hopefully will play Dmid tomorrow. I really wanna see what he can do there..




    “Diarra could be back in the squad, I don’t know,” said Wenger at Thursday’s press conference. “I will decide that because he played two games over the break.”

    However the manager is in no doubt of his abilities.

    “I was very pleased to get him,” he said. “I like him as a player he is very good defensively with a good fighting spirit. He is young as well so we can create a unit of very strong players in the same position. He is versatile. He can play right back or left back as well as centre midfield. But I think basically he will be in central midfield.”

    I'd rather see Sagna at CB than Hoyte and have Hoyte play RB......

    -----------------Almunia


    Sagna------Toure--------Gilberto-------Clichy


    ---------------<-Diarra->

    -------------------------Cesc

    Hleb-------------------------------------Rosicky


    ------------------RvP

    --------------------------Adebayor

    Arsenal to win 2-0 with Rosicky and Rvp doing the honors. The Spuds are diabolical on defense.

    I like that. Is Diaby availible? He could start as DM and sub out to Diarra or vice versa. Others subs could be Eduardo for one of the strikers depending on what pairing will work against the defense and Flamini or Hoyte to fill in the back line if needed.

    I think one thing detemines this match....If GILBERTO is available. If not, we really don't have any other CB's out there to fill in. For Dmid you can put in Flamini or Diarra....and if not then theres always Denilson or Diaby.

    Really like that formation...let Diarra protect the CB pairing, whatever it turns out to be.

    I'm thinking this will be 3-2 to the Arsenal...lot's of scoring, probably a pk or two, but we won't ever be in real danger of losing.

    Is it sad that I want to put on my jersey already? Having NLD after an international break is hard on my nerves.
