24th August 2015 - Away to Arsenal

[mgw100]

Anyone who thinks Arsenal are going to lose their opening two home games of the season is in cloud cuckoo land. We will be lucky to get nil.

Christ man, it's Arsenal not Barcelona.

[Oh Buoy]

For a team that's always in the top four; they're utter wank. 

 

I think we're more scared that it's at the Emirates than the actual team we're playing. 

 

Score early and they'll fucking collapse along with the Wenger-out crowd.

I really think our fans are giving them wayy too much respect in this regard. Its bloody Arsenal that plays all fancy-schmancy but cant string any passes together if they fail to turn up.

 

Its in our hands and I really hope our lads turn up for this. We need to put a marker down same way City did against Chelsea.

 

If West Ham can do it on a given day, then I am sure we can.

Don't think anyone is giving Arsenal too much respect, we're merely giving Liverpol the sufficient amount of disrespect.

[Evelyn Tentions]

I just hope we give them a game this time,  We have been pathetic in this fixture of late and last season was fucking embarrassment . We have to offer more going forward than we have in the first two games , If he starts with the same formation with Ibe down the left and Gomez and Lovren defending that side we will lose , Moreno has to come in for me and ideally Sakho,

Ings up front , drop Ibe to the bench 

Why the fuck would you bring in a not very good, ball watching left back who fluked one goal going forward early on and hasn't found either the goal or a team mate since to play in midfield when we've got about 37 dwarf AMs knocking about?

[Paco]

Lucas in the squad according to echo

[Grinch]

Didn't take Rodgers long to realise he needs a DM, shame he won't buy one that hasn't been fucked by injury.

[Section_31]

2-1 to them, they'll go 2 up.

[Tony Moanero]

The next person to post is a cunt.

Never seen the cunt before.

West Ham managed it, they lost to Bournemouth and we beat Bournemouth so the laws of clearly defined football logic means we'll win.....

 

I hope we don't try and keep it tight and maybe nick it- we simply can't play that, the defence don't have the discipline/ability.

 

Best chance may be from corners, we should have quite a height advantage if we pack the box.

 

I'd play Ings, we may not get many shots and when we do they need to be on target, not the midfield/Lovren smashing them into the stands from distance.

 

Hopefully this is the game where Firminio shows what he has to offer

[Tony Moanero]

I'm praying that we get beat.

[Bjornebye]

Hate this fixture.

Rodgers has been talking up a storm about "controlling the space". Whenever he opens his gob it backfires on us, don't expect any different this time.

Erm, let's then hope Arsenal play the way they always do when they lose.

he does a press conference before every game. It always backfires on us?

[an tha]

'dangerous possession' genius

[Paco]

Talking shite to the media is all part of the game.

He needs to control the space between his ears first and foremost 

[Jairzinho]

Talking shite to the media is all part of the game dance.

 

Agreed.

[Hades]
